A.
At least 15 working days prior to the Planning Board meeting at which
the applicant wishes to be heard, the applicant shall submit a letter
of intent to appear before the Planning Board. Only applicants who
submit said letter shall be placed on the meeting agenda.
B.
At said meeting, the applicant shall submit for informal discussion
12 copies of a sketch plan and other data relative to the proposed
subdivision as recommended in Appendix B.
C.
At the preapplication conference, the Planning Board and the applicant
shall arrange for a joint inspection of the site with the Planning
Board or individual appointed by the Chair of the Planning Board to
act as the Board's representative for such inspection.
D.
The preapplication conference shall be an informal discussion at
which the applicant shall describe his proposed project and the Planning
Board shall ask questions. The preapplication conference and site
walk do not constitute a review by the Planning Board of the substance
of the application but rather informational and exploratory sessions.
The submittal or discussion of the preapplication sketch plan shall
not be considered the initiation of the review process for the purpose
of bringing the plan under the protection of 1 M.R.S.A. § 302.
F.
Upon making this classification, the Planning Board shall give the
applicant an application form (see Appendix A), the appropriate submission
checklist(s) (see Appendices C, D, and E), and indicate additional
items that will be required for subsequent review.
