Heading: Planning Board Decision

Text: In its appeal from the Superior Court's affirmance of the Planning Board decision to approve its site plan subject to eleven conditions, Total Quality challenges the imposition of three of those conditions requiring it to install (1) a guardrail along the southern property line; (2) a fence twenty-five feet from the rear property line; and (3) a fence and evergreens along the northern property line. Contrary to Total Quality's contentions, the Planning Board did not abuse its discretion or exceed its authority in imposing these requirements. See Rockland Plaza Realty Corp. v. Laverdiere's Enters., Inc., 531 A.2d 1272, 1273-74 (Me.1987). The Site Plan Review Ordinance gives the Planning Board authority to impose these conditions. [5] Moreover, the conditions are reasonable means of achieving the goals stated in the Ordinance of promoting traffic safety and minimizing the impact of the property use on abutting properties. The entry is: Judgments affirmed. All concurring.
