RESIDENTS & PROPERTY OWNERS COMMENTS

Mrs. Karen Parkinson, 55 Rose Hill Road, Ledyard, stated that she was a Land

Owner, Farmer, Business Owner, Trail Builder, Historic District Commission

Member, and an Amateur Preservationist. She questioned whether the Land

Use/Planning/Public Works Committee received Dr. Ammie Chittim’s January 2,

2026 letter that was addressed to Land Use Director/Town Planer Elizibeth Burdick

regarding the Spicer Homestead Ruins. The LUPPW Committee Members noted that

they received Dr. Chittm’s letter today. Mrs. Parkinson proceeded to read the letter

for the record as follows:

January 2, 2026

Liz Berdick, Town Planner

Town of Ledyard

741 Colonel Ledyard Highway

Ledyard, CT 06339

cc: Land Use Committee, Chairman

Dear Ms. Berdick,

I am writing in my capacity as The Town of Ledyard Historic Commission’s

Director of Archaeological Research and Preservation. I am also a Registered

Professional Archaeologist (RPA) with more than 20 years of cultural

preservation experience. This letter provides a brief statement regarding the

historical and archaeological significance of the 4.4-acre parcel located at 1025

Colonel Ledyard Highway, known as the Spicer Homestead. This letter reflects

my referral for the Spicer Homestead site to be submitted as part of the Town’s

review of historic archaeological properties for inclusion in the Connecticut

Historic Resources Inventory.

The Spicer Homestead parcel meets the criteria for historical significance under

Connecticut’s historic preservation framework due to its direct association with

early colonial settlement patterns, documented 18th-century land use, and its

potential 17th-century occupation. Probate and land records identify a dwelling,

orchard, and barn belonging to John Spicer (4th) on this property by 1769, and

documentary evidence suggests the site may also represent the first homestead of

Peter Spicer, established on land granted to him in 1693. The parcel contains

intact archaeological features-including cellar holes, a possible center-chimney

fall, a stone well, stone walls, and a stone-walled paddock-along with a glacial

erratic known in Spicer family oral tradition as “Spicer’s Rock.” These elements

collectively represent a well-preserved agrarian landscape with high research

potential and strong integrity, consistent with the significance standards outlined

by the Connecticut State Historic Preservation Office.

The attached maps illustrate the parcel boundaries that best encompass the

surviving historic landscape and the original homestead foundation. Protecting

this defined area will ensure the preservation of the core archaeological features

and their surrounding context, allowing the Town to safeguard the most

meaningful and intact portion of the Spicer family’s early farmstead.

Sincerely,

Ammie M Chittim, Ph.D., R.P.A.

Shewville Road, Ledyard

Director of Research and Preservation

Ledyard Historic Commission

Mrs. Parkinson went on to state the reason she wanted to get Dr. Chittim’s letter into

the record was because there has been much discussion about 4.4 acres; noting that

they did not just pick 4.4-acres out of their hat, stating that Ms. Chittim was very

familiar with the property and that they based their acreage on her guidance.

Mrs. Parkinson stated that she has been working on this initiative for three-years and

she expressed frustration that other town Commissions such as the Conservation

Commission has been assigned Administrative Control of town-owned properties,

and that Avalonia Land Conservancy has received lots of acres of property from the

town, noting that recently they received 4.9-acres called the Kettle Hole; which had

some historic significance. She stated that these properties were transferred to

Avalonia Land Conservancy without them being required to obtain an A2 Survey or

any of the other things they were asking the Historic District Commission to provide

for the Spicer Homestead Ruins, stating that this troubled her.

Mrs. Parkinson continued by addressing the Historic District Commission’s request

for the assignment of the Administrative Control of the 4.4-acre Spicer Homestead

Ruins, noting that even if they obtain a Historic Designation from the State, and even

if it became a State Preserve, and even if it became a National Preserve, that the

Town would still retain ownership of the 4.4-acre Spicer Homestead Ruins site that

was located within the Clark Farm Property. She stated at any time the Town could

take it back, demolish everything, and build a school there if they wanted to. She

stated by assigning the Administrative Control of the Spicer Homestead Ruins to the

Historic District Commission that the Town was not giving it away. She stated that

the Historic District Commission does not have to have Administrative Control of the

Spicer Homestead Ruins to go through the Historic Designation Process, noting that

once they have completed the process that they would have Admirative Control of the

area; like they do with the Nathan Lester House and the Up-Down Sawmill.

Mrs. Parkinson noted the debate regarding the A2 Survey and she stated that

Connecticut General Stature Chapter 97 lays out all of the steps to do the study. She

stated that it was all documented in an email from the State Historic Preservation

Office Mr. Stefon Danczuk, noting the following:

· First Step - Town Council to appoint the Historic District Commission to do the

Study to take to the State. Mrs. Parkinson stated that the A2 Survey was not needed

for the Historic District Commission to conduct the Study, noting that all they needed

were the maps, which she had, because the boundaries needed to be movable as they

worked through the process.

· Second Step - Submit Study/Application to the State Historic Preservation

Commission for their review.

· Third Step - The Historic Designation Request would come back to the Town for

the Planning and Zoning Commission to conduct a review.

· Fourth Step - Hold a Public Hearing and invite the property owners, which was the

Town.

· Fifth Step - Update Ordinance #300-019 “An Ordinance Establishing Historic

District Boundaries And Establishing A Historic District Commission for the Town

of Ledyard” to include the new historic district (Spicer Homestead Ruins).

· Sixth Step - Conduct the A2 Survey - Mrs. Parkinson explained that they did not

need the A2 Survey until the end of the process, when they file with the land records.

She stated that this would all be done after they take it to the State Historic

Preservation Commission because the State could make a suggestion, such as they

wanted them to include this other little piece of stone wall, etc. She stated when they

go back to the Planning and Zoning, Commission that they could say “No” and make

changes. She stated because the boundaries were moveable until they get the process

done, and therefore, it did not make sense to spend money on an A2 Survey Map

until they were done, because, as they we go through this process any of the bodies

involved could move the boundaries and; then they would have to do the A2 Survey

all over again.

Mrs. Parkinson continued by addressing the Administrative Control of the Clark

Farm. She stating that she has been working to build the Tri-Town Trail since 2018,

which goes through the Clark Farm (1025 Colonel Ledyard Highway) and the State

property (1087 Colonel Ledyard Highway). She stated as a Farmer that she could tell

them that those properties have been overcome with invasives, because the land was

not being cared for. She stated that these properties should be under the

Administrative Control of the Agricultural Commission, because they could write

grants to make improvements and to maintain and preserve the farmland.

Land Use Director/Town Planner Elizabeth Burdick addressed Mrs. Parkinson’s

comments regarding the conveyance of town-owned land to Avalonia Land

Conservancy, specifically the Kettle Hole property. She explained that Mr. Steve

Marion of Star Surveying conducted an A2 Survey of the property and that the

Planning & Zoning Commission conducted an 8-24 Review and provided an 8-24

Recommendation regarding the conveyance of the 4.9-acre parcel located at 19 Avery

Hill Road Extension; known as the Kettle Ho,le to Avalonia Land Conservancy to the

Town Council. She stated the Town Council scheduled a Public Hearing and a

Special Town Meeting which were held on November 12, 2025 for the townspeople

to vote on the conveyance of the property. She stated that Avalonia Land

Conservancy paid for all of the conveyance fees and other fees associated with the

conveyance of the property which included a A2 Survey. She went onto explain that

one of the reasons Avalonia wanted to obtain the Kettle Hole property was because

the adjacent property was owned by Avalonia Land Conservancy President Dennis

Main’s family, and he was donating/transferring a good portion of that property to

Avalonia Land Conservancy. She stated across the street was the Pfizer property

which Avalonia Land Conservancy recently acquired and that they plan to obtain

approval from the State Department of Transportation (DOT) to put in a crosswalk at

that location. She stated the hope was to obtain an easement through the Lowley

Property for a connection to Tri-Town Trail. Therefore, she stated that the Avalonia

Land Conservancy went through the proper process

Ms. Burdick went on to explain that Avalonia Land Conservancy was currently in the

process of working with the Ledyard Water Pollution Control Authority (WCA) to

blaze a trail that would eventually go from the Pfizer Property and connect to the

Tri-Town Trail, noting that Avalonia owned a piece of property across the street to

Stoddards Wharf Road which was next to the Kettle Hole Property and that they were

hoping to brin the trail all the way to Route 12. She stated that Avalonia Land

Conservancy was also hoping to acquire the Glacier Park property to eventually

connect Tri-Town Trail, noting that this was a huge trail system; and that Avalonia

Land Conservancy were good stewards of the land.

Ms. Burdick addressed Mrs. Parkinson’s comments regarding the 4.4-acre area for

the Spicer Homestead Ruins. She stated although she was not working for Ledyard at

the time, that the Mayor told her that the Town Council authorized the use of

American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding to conduct the A2 Survey for 1-arcre of

the Spicer Homestead Ruins, which Surveyors Dieter and Gardner did. She went on

to explain for the Planning & Zoning Commission to conduct an 8-24 Referral that

they were going to need to see a map, that did not have moving boundaries.

Councilor Buhle addressed the A2 Survey for the Spicer Homestead Ruins. She e

explained because it was believed that the A2 Survey was needed to move forward

with the Historic Designation process the Town Council authorized the use about

$2,500 of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding to conduct the A2 Survey

for 1-arcre of the Spicer Homestead Ruins, because the base of the Ruins was 0.7

acres. Mrs. Parkinson stated that the Historic District Commission did not need to

have the A2 Survey to proceed with eh State Historic Designation Application. She

stated the Town Council, as the Legislative Body, not as the Property Owner, needed

to appoint the Historic District Commission to conduct a Study of the Spicer

Homestead Ruins.

Mr. Bruce Garstka, 10 Pleasant View, Ledyard, noted the Informal Meeting

Councilor Lamb held at the former Ledyard Center School during which a comment

was made that Ledyard needed commercial development to help reduce the tax

impact on homeowners. He stated that Ledyard had some Noth-South Roads (Route

12; Route 117; Colonel Ledyard Highway. However, he stated to travel East-West

they basically had Route 214, noting that it was a winding road and it was not safe.

He stated if the Mohegan Tribe develops the former Norwich State Hospital Property,

there could potentially be commercial development past for former Pfizer Property,

which would be centrally located between the two-entities. He suggested the Town

meet with their State Representatives to discussed straightening out Route 214;

because it would benefit Ledyard in the long term, and to ask if they could get this on

the State Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Plan.

Mr. Gartska continued by questioning whether the town has approached landowners

about purchasing their land to develop a Commercial/Industrial Park, noting that

there were some areas that could benefit the town.

Mr. Eric Treaster, 10 Huntington Way, Ledyard, stated that he would like to wish

everyone a Happy New Year; and hoped they had a wonder 2026!

Councilor Thompson thanked the Residents their comments.

PRESENTATIONS / INFORMATIONAL ITEMS

1. Councilor Lamb email dated 12/15/2025 re: Comprehensive Town-wide Capital

Improvement Plan

2. Councilor Lamb email dated 12/18/2025 re: Spicer Homestead Ruins

Councilor Thompson noted that Councilor Lamb provided the following two emails

which were attached the Agenda on the Meeting Portal.

1. Councilor Lamb email dated 12/15/2025 re: Comprehensive Town-wide Capital

Improvement Plan

Councilor Lamb stated during the time he served on the Board of Education that he

tried to lay out a normal Capital Plan. However, he stated that the Board of Education

voted it down because they were more focused on funding their Operational Budget.

Therefore, he stated that the Board of Education prepared a Capital Improvement

Plan which consisted of what they were going to do this year; noting that it was his

opinion that what they put together for the rest of their Projects were bogus. He noted

in their Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Draft Budget the Board of Education included

$600,000 for the Middle School; and they included $49 million for the following

year. He questioned their strategy; he questioned whether they were going to invest

$49 million in the High School next year; and then tear down the High School. He

questioned whether the Land Use/Planning/Public Works Committee Members

thought that it was the Town Council’s responsibility to develop a Time-Phase

Long-Term Plan for each of the town’s facilities; and a Grand Strategy/Vision that

they could all work toward over the next fifty-years; so that if they were/ or were not

planning to build a new High School that everyone in town would know the plan, the

goals, and the expectations.

Both Councilor Thompson and Councilor Buhle agreed that they should have a

Capital Improvement Plan for each of the town’s facilities, however, they also stated

that the Plan had to be realistic. It was noted that although they may have a Plan that

unexpected repairs and expenses may come up along the way, that were often times

pressing; causing things on the Long-Term Plan to get kicked down the road.

Councilor Lamb stated as elected officials that it was their job to tell the residents

what it was going to cost to keep the facilities in their current condition with a

realistic Strategic Plan. He stated if they decided that they could not afford to pay for

those things, that they would then be making a conscious choice to kick those items

on the Plan down the road.

Councilor Buhle stated that she supported developing a Long-Term Capital Plan and

Strategy. She went on to note that when the Board of Education has a budget surplus

those funds were transferred to their Capital Account. She stated it would be helpful

to have a Capital Plan so there would be accountability for what the next project was

on the List. She went on to state that every time the Board of Education has a budget

surplus that the taxpayers overpaid, because the money was not used to pay for

services for their students. Therefore, she stated the Board of Education’s budget

surplus needed to be used for something that improved their students education.

Councilor Buhle stated because funding was the key component for a Capital

Improvement Plan that the Finance Committee needed to be involved, noting without

funding the Capital Plan was just a wish. She stated that she could include a

discussion to develop a Long-Term Capital Improvement Plan on the February 4,

2026 Joint Finance Committee Meeting with the Board of Education. Councilor

Lamb stated that the Land Use/Planning/Public Works Committee should be the

Committee that was looking at all of the town facilities and that they should be

keeping quad charts of what their statuses were. He stated that Board of Education

Director of Facilities and Grounds Wayne Donalson and Public Works

Director/Town Engineer Steve Masalin were doing a good job at giving them the

information and their priorities. However, he stated that they needed a time-phased

plan.

Councilor Lamb asked Councilor Thompson the plan going forward for the LUPPW

Committee to keep their eye on all of the town’s properties and the future of the

properties. Councilor Thompson stated that he agreed that the LUPPW Committee

should be involved with the Long-Term Capital Plan; and he questioned whether they

could work with the Finance Committee and the Board of Education.

1. Councilor Lamb email dated 12/18/2025 re: Spicer Homestead Ruins

Councilor Lamb noted Old Business Item #2 on tonight’s Agenda, stating that he

wanted to forward his December 15, 2025 exchange with Historic District

Commissioner Karen Parkinson to the LUPPW Committee. He stated the former

Land Use/Planning/Public Works Committee (letter dated August 28, 2025) felt the

Historic District Commission was already authorized to serve as a Historic District

Study Committee and that the Commission had the ability to take on tasks to

investigate the feasibility of preserving historic properties, such as the Spicer

Homestead Ruins, noting in their letter that Ordinance #300-019 “An Ordinance

Establishing Historic District Boundaries And Establishing A Historic District

Commission for the Town of Ledyard” cited CGS Section 7-147c “The historic

district commission may from time to time, by following the procedure for creation

of an historic district provided for in section 7-14b, suggest that a historic district be

enlarged or that additional districts be created”.

Councilor Lamb went on to state that if this LUPPW Committee would agree to the

language he was going to propose this evening; and if the Town Council would take

a 2-second vote to give the Historic District Commission permission to be the lead on

the initiative to seek an historic designation of the Spicer Homestead Ruins, that the

Historic District Commission would feel that they had the documentation needed to

provide to the State. Therefore, he thought why not just give them the permission,

noting that he did not understand the argument between that they already had the

permission, verses giving them permission needed. He proceeded by noting the

Motion below that the LUPPW Committee could pass forward to the Town Council:

MOTION to appoint the Ledyard Historic District Commission to

conduct a study of the proposed Spicer Homestead Ruins and follow

all steps in accordance with Connecticut General Statutes; Chapter

7a; Section 7-147 (q) “Procedures for Establishing a Historical

Property”.

VI.

OLD BUSINESS

Continued discussion regarding the progress of enforcing regulations to address blight issues.

Councilor Thompson noted that Zoning Official Hannha Gienau provided the Blight

Report dated January 5, 2025 for tonight’s meeting. He noted that the Land Use

Department current had 14 Blight Issues that were being resolved and 6 properties

that were being monitored

· 528 Colonel Ledyard Highway - Land Use Director/Town Planner Elizabeth Burdick

noted that Councilor Lamb asked that she provide an update regarding 528 Colonel

Ledyard Highway. She stated the successful Bidder at the Public Auction has taken the

Tile to the property. She stated that new owner has already done some work to clean up

the property.

· Non-Permitted Signs - Councilor Buhle questioned the progress in removing the many signs

around town that were not permitted. Ms. Burdick stated that Building Official Seumas

Quinn and Zoning Official Hannha Gienau have been picking up the illegal signs. However,

she stated people put the signs up as quickly as the town takes them down. She stated that

the Land Use Department would typically call the local businesses and let them know they

could pick their signs up at their Office.

RESULT:

MOTION to recommend the Town Council appoint the Ledyard Historic District

Commission to conduct a study of the proposed Spicer Homestead Ruins and follow all

steps in accordance with Connecticut General Statutes; Chapter 7a; Section 7-147 (q)

“Procedures for Establishing a Historical Property”.

Moved by Councilor Lamb, seconded by Councilor Buhle

Discussion: Councilor Lamb noted that he believed everyone was supportive of seeking

a Historic Designation of the Spicer Homestead Ruins. He stated with the Town Council

approving this Motion that it would allow the Historic District Commission to get all the

Steps in place. He stated the only tidbit was to have a discussion with the Town Council

and the Mayor about what the appropriate space should be for the Spicer Homestead

Ruins. However, he stated that discussion did not need to happen right-a-way. He stated

that he and members of the Historic District Commission, as well as members of the

Town Council and Director of Land Use/Town Planner Elizabeth Burdick could meet

with the Mayor to lay out their Plan. He stated that he thought that he could easily

adjudicate the space that should be there, noting the space would not be locked-in

because they would have to go through the process to eventually get to where they

wanted to be. He stated the Historic District Commission could give a presentation to the

decision makers. (see above - IV. Presentations/Informational Items)

Land Use Director/Town Planner Elizabeth Burdick stated that the Land Use

Department Staff was small; and therefore, the Historic Designation of the Spicer

Homestead Ruins was not a Project that she could take on, noting that she just picked-up

supporting the Sustainable CT Ad Hoc Committee. She stated that there were

Consultants that do this type of work with Historic Districts that they could hire. She

suggested the Historic District Commission create a Flow Chart with all the Steps so

everyone (Historic District Commission, LUPPW Committee, Town Council, etc.), was

looking at the same thing, noting that a Consultant could probably help them with the

flow chart as well.

Historic District Commission Member Karen Parkinson stated in 2022 the Tri-Town

Trail Association applied for and received a $3,000 Grant that they used to conduct the

Study of the Spicer Homestead Ruins Property, noting that work was already done.

Councilor Lamb asked Councilor Thompson to talk with Town Council Chairman St.

Vill and Mayor Allyn, III to find out who he needed to give the Presentation too.

VOTE: 3- 0 Approved and so declared

CONTINUE

RESULT:

Review and discuss the Agricultural Commission’s proposed List of Criteria for the Leasing

of Town-Owned Land such as Clark Farm and former Norwich State Hospital Property to

encourage the properties continue to be used for Agricultural purposes.

Councilor Thompson questioned whether everyone reviewed the List noted below that

the Agricultural Commission presented at the LUPPW Committee’s December 8,

2025 meeting and whether anyone had questions.

The land shall be used for the production of hay only.

2. Any change of crop must be approved beforehand in writing.

3. The fields must be mowed at least yearly with a mowing height not to exceed eight

inches.

4. Any harvested hay may be stored on site at a location chosen by the Town.

5. No harvested hay may be stored over one year, and all harvested hay must be

removed at end of the lease.

6. All necessary insurance is to be in effect for the term of the lease.

7. A five-year renewable lease is preferred.

8. Lessee must have a proven track record.

9. Lessee must have a means to fulfill lease terms.

10. References must be provided.

11. Fields shall be limed, fertilized, and sprayed for weeds using approved agricultural

methods and standards.

12. The fee is to be determined.

Councilor Lamb noted that he believed that the LUPPW Committee agreed with the

Agricultural Commissin’s suggestion. He questioned how they incorporated these

provisions into the Clark Farm Lease and the Request for Proposal Process.

Councilor Buhle expressed concern regarding Item #1 noting that it was too restrictive

for others who may want to farm a different type crop. She suggested Item #1 read as

follows: “The land shall be used for Agricultural production. The Crop must be

approved before hand in writing”.

Land Use Director/Town Planner Elizabeth Burdick noted that former the Norwich

State Hospital Property had Deed Restrictions. She stated that the Property could only be

used for Agricultural Proposes, noting that she has not read the Deed in sometime; and

therefore, she suggested if they were looking to lease the Norwich State Hospital that

they review the Deed.

Councilor Thompson stated the reason they were looking to grow hay on the Clark

Farm Property was because it was non-invasive, good for the soil, and had a minimum

impact. Agricultural Commission Chairman Bruce Gartska stated the hey was low

impact to the ground. Therefore, he stated that they would have to be careful if they used

the property for crops that required them to plow the land. He stated the Agricultural

Commission’s goal was to keep the Clark Farm from going fallow and letting the

invasive species take over. He also stated that hay was a product that could easily be

sold. He stated in the past the Clark Farm was used to grow corn and pumpkins. He

stated that growing hay was very low impact and reduced the liability for the town.

Councilor Buhle asked Administrative Assistant Roxanne Maher whether the LUPPW

Committee would be amending the Clark Farm Lease. Ms. Maher explained that the

LUPPW Committee could draft a boiler plate Lease using the current Clark Farm lease

as a starting point and incorporate the criteria that the Agricultural Commission has

suggested. She stated once they had a draft Lease that they could forward it to the Town

Council for their approval in preparation for soliciting Request for Proposals (RFP). She

note that the current Lessee Mr. Majcher’s Lease would be ending in March, 2026, and

that he was not interesting in continuing to lease the Clark Farm. She stated that the

Mayor’s Office would be responsible for advertising/soliciting Requests for Proposals to

lease the Clark Farm Property. She also explained that to lease town-owned land that a

Public Hearing and Special Town Meeting would be required:

· Connecticut State Statutes Sec. 7-163e.

Public hearing on the sale, lease or transfer of real property owned

by a municipality. (a) The legislative body of a municipality, or in any

municipality where the legislative body is a town meeting or

representative town meeting, the board of selectmen, shall conduct a

public hearing on the sale, lease or transfer of real property owned

by the municipality prior to final approval of such sale, lease or

transfer.”

Chapter VII; Section 9 of the Town Charter:

“………and any sale or purchase of real estate or interest therein shall

become effective only after it has been approved by the Town Council

and adopted at a Town meeting by a majority vote of the qualified

voters present and voting at such meeting” .

The LUPPW Committee agreed to draft a boiler plate Lease for the Clark Farm

incorporating the criteria provided by Agricultural Commission.
