access road, time to provide a dedicated easement: emergency egress via pirates cove, see letter from committee for
summary of recommendations. This is for
the use of mitigation funds from the steam generator project. Comments from the council: from Anne: no mention of Avila residents? On

in an access path? Acknowledged that we
need an emergency egress. Boyd
