In old business, the Commission offered no comment on the Queenstown Assisted Living site plan for Nesbitt Road due to lack of trail access; discussed a zoning text amendment for Wheatlands where Barry Waterman may shift from townhouses to a mix of relatively affordable dwellings and was advised to propose a floating zone and build order; and discussed a Trails Master Plan including whether a future trail will lie north or south of Route 50, forming a town committee with a Planning Commission member, setting goals and inventories, tourism benefits, public input, funding, and maintenance. New business included approval of the March 6, 2019 minutes and receipt of Perry Stutman's resignation; the meeting adjourned at 7:53 p.m.
