associated with National Energy Developments Special Use Permit application and Site
Plan application. Mrs. Brath noted that they have begun an initial review of the
documents and have noticed that a number of the documents are outdated and will
need to be updated in order for the application to be considered complete. Mrs. Ballou
briefly went over the list of documents that will need to be updated and noted that no
decisions on this project will be made at this time. It was noted by Town Clerk Bray that
all documents must also be in print format. Mrs. Brath then explained the steps that
