After reviewing the paperwork the Edgingtons presented to the Planning Board Jim Starkey moved to NOT accept the application due to an incomplete checklist of criteria for a site plan review.  Seconded by Nancy Zeller.  All in favor, so voted.  The Board reviewed the checklist with Mr. & Mrs. Edgington, explaining what they need to present to the Board and they were also shown what a site plan map should look like and what information should be on the site plan map.  The hearing was continued until September 11, 2007 at 7:30 PM.
