An excerpt of the actual standard is in the 3rd column, and the Committee's analysis of whether it was met or not is in the "Notes" column.  The Committee is working now to evaluate the updated plans against those same standards, as many of the issues identified in the Committee's recommendation in December have been addressed (for instance: there is no monument sign in the current plans).

If it's allowed, which a 711 is, there has to be technical reasons to disallow an application. The planning board as a matter of law cannot and will not consider comments that do not pertain to the identification of technical oppositions to an application.
