Please find attached the Portland Planning Board subdivision approval letter for this project.
 
Please note that the my attorneys consider that the note on the plat as suggested by your attorney (The Town of Falmouth is not accepting Ice Pond Drive as a public street. The Town of Falmouth shall have no obligation to repair, maintain, or plow Ice Pond Drive)  is sufficient to cover the City of Portland (since the applicant is going to deed the entire road to us, the road will be built to City standards and all departments have indicated that the proposal is acceptable). 
 
The only issue that needs to be resolved is that we would not want to be taxed on this land in Falmouth (by the Town) and Danielle West-Chuhta (Corporation Counsel) will be liaising with someone from your municipality regarding this (but it does not need to be resolved before the plats are signed/recorded). 
 
I am hoping to have the Portland Planning Board sign the plats on March 19 so that - if your Board is OK with the plats- your board can sign them on April 2.  Therefore please let me know if there is anything else that you or your attorney would want on the plat asap as I would probably need to discuss it with my attorney before it gets added.
 
thank you
Jean
