G. Massad recused himself from the application.
J. Mullen reviewed the application with the Commission. He reviewed with the Commission
that in the 1990’s approximately 300’ of municipal sewer was installed and other public
improvements were made. The area of Caroline Court is located on a portion of a privately
owned parcel and has been used as a Town road with the Town providing services to residents
along Caroline Court. As part of this proposal a hammer head will be installed towards the end
of the Caroline Court to allow for snow storage.
B. Chenard asked if a barrier will be installed at the end of Caroline Court. He also voiced
concerns about potentially providing an easement for the existing driveway access to 5 Caroline
Court. Attorney Avena noted that quit claim deeds will need to be filed and that all required
access easements will be included to provide for continued access.
M. Wujtewicz reviewed with the Commission the prepared staff report.
The Commission made the following findings:
1. The proposed land to be acquired by the Town of Waterford is a Municipal
Improvement that qualifies for a CGS 8-24 review by the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
2. The acquisition for the purpose of formally establishing a public road known as Caroline
Court is supported by the 2012 Plan of Preservation Conservation and Development. It is
consistent with the Plan by allowing the Town to provide the required services for
residents,
The Commission discussed the following conditions:
1. The quitclaim deed to be filed shall provide for an access easement for 5 Caroline Court.
2. A snow storage area and location will need to be delineated on the final survey plan.
MOTION: 
Motion made by B. Chenard, seconded by D. Crum, to approve CGS 8-24
Application #PL-24-8 for the acquisition of land for the purpose of providing
public road known as Caroline Court by finding the proposal consistent with
the Town of Waterford 2012 Plan of Preservation Conservation and
Development and to adopt the findings 1 and 2 of the staff report and the 2
discussed conditions.
VOTE: 
5-0
