7:05 P.M. LARGE HOME REVIEW DISSCUSSION
The Board and Building Commissioner, Robert Egan discussed the Large Home Review Bylaw. The Board agreed
they need to determine what amount of square footage would be the correct amount to trigger the review. Mr. Egan
thinks that every square foot of living space should be counted toward the square footage. It's his opinion that
attics and garages should be included because the garage is part of the massing of the house. After further
discussion, the Board agreed to put a placeholder on the Annual Town Meeting Warrant for an amendment to the
Large Home Review Bylaw.

it. The Board agreed this would be the best course of action.
