[Massplanners] Planning Board Alternates to Review Site Plan

[Andrea Adams]

Good Evening:

I've seen the benefits of having a Planning Board member on Site Plan.

One of Watertown's Planning Board members also happened to be on the
Accessibility Committee, and would comment on projects.

At the same time, if this becomes common, that person will have to
scrupulously guard against the impression that the entire Entire Board is
passing judgement on projects at the Site Plan level.
