6. Zoning Enforcement Officer's Report
C. Jefferson noted she received a complaint from neighbors relative to chronic tag sales being held every weekend. A letter has been sent to the resident advising that Zoning Regulations only permit no more than 4 tag sales per year to be held on residential property.
C. Jefferson noted the issue with the fence at the rear of the Killingworth Village has been taken care of. They still need to install the bollards in front of the propane tank.
C. Jefferson noted the individual storing commercial vehicles at 202 Old Deep River Turnpike had contacted her indicating those vehicles would be gone by the end of the month. Jefferson asked the property owner to send a letter to that effect, but nothing has been received. She will ask Attorney Howard to check the status of the foreclosure before pursuing this matter.
C. Jefferson noted the Briefs have been filed relative to the Limmerick Farms pending litigation. Rebuttals are now being prepared.
Paul McGuinness stated he noticed the flower boxes were gone from 183 Route 81 once the wheel stops were put in. C. Jefferson will contact Dean Bochanis to see whether he just pulled them in for the winter or took them away permanently.
7. New Business
(a) Timber Harvest, Reservoir Road – CT Water Co., Map 29, Lot 1

Motion by Gross, second by Hayash, to approve Timber Harvest for CT Water Co., Map 29, Lot 1, on Reservoir Road. PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
(b) Deer Lake Scout Reservation, Phase I – minor amendment
It was noted this item was discussed at the last meeting but no action was taken as the Commission was waiting for the Wetlands Commission approval which has since been obtained.
