<div>The Hudson Planning Board opened its Oct. 14 meeting by introducing the town’s new Associate Planner, Trevor Allen, while also approving several bond-related requests tied to ongoing subdivision projects.“I’ve been with the Hudson planning team for about three weeks. I’m the Associate Planner, and I’m happy to be here,” said Allen. “It’s exciting to be at my first Planning Board meeting.”Board Chair Tim Malley and other members of the Planning Board welcomed Allen and expressed their desire to build a strong working relationship with the new planner in the months and years ahead.Joining the board that evening was Development Services Director Elvis Dhima, who presented a request to establish a performance bond for roadway and site improvements associated with the LeClair Drive Extension project, part of a seven-lot subdivision approved earlier this year.“This one you approved not too long ago, I want to say it was this year, and the work has started,” reported Dhima. “They’re trying to reduce their bond requirements now that the contractors have started doing some of the work and they’re down to the pavement. It’s time to record the plans, and to record the plans they need to have an approved bond amount by the Planning Board. They’ve submitted that request to us, we’ve reviewed it, we’ve confirmed what’s out there, and it’s ready for approval from you.”According to the application and town staff, the remaining costs for site improvements total $210,967.13. At the suggestion of board member Ed Van Der Veen, the Planning Board unanimously approved the performance bond request.Dhima also presented a request involving the release of a bond tied to the Autumn Circle Subdivision, a project dating back to 2016, as well as a maintenance bond associated with the Nadeau Village development located near Acadia Drive and Hampton Lane.“The project that got approved back in 2016 took a long time, and the long story short is that there were two players involved in this that are down to one now,” said Dhima, indicating there was still paperwork associated with a process that left $1,538.95 remaining from the original cash bond.He also updated the board on the Nadeau Village development.“The Acadia Drive and Hampton Lane one also got approved a while back. This is, I think, the only development that I’m aware of that counts as ‘multi-generational,’ which is basically a fancy word for a single-family house with a fancy ADU next to it, which can be attached or detached,” said Dhima. “They sold like hotcakes, they did very well, they did a nice job, and it’s ready for acceptance. They submitted the paperwork, we have done our walkthrough, we checked the pipes, and we sent the sewer crew out there with the camera. Everything is ready to go.”The maintenance bond tied to the Nadeau Village project totaled $58,209.Both the Autumn Circle bond release and the acceptance of improvements for Acadia Drive and Hampton Lane, including their confirmation as public streets, were unanimously approved by the Planning Board without debate.The Hudson Planning Board is scheduled to meet again on Monday, Oct. 26, at 7 p.m. in the Buxton Meeting Room.</div>
