7:15 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING (continued) – Notice of Intent – Ken Sydow – 36 Boulder Way
Renovations (removal & rebuilding) of House #36, proposed new driveway and related grading, proposed new well for House #36 and House #34.
Steve Sears (David E. Ross Associates) was in attendance for the applicant. He submitted revised plans and infiltrator literature. A site walk took place on March 8th. It was the consensus that the wetland line that is depicted on the plan is consistent with what was seen on the site visit. The surface has stable vegetation. The items that were required from the last meeting were addressed. There were concerns about top soil stockpiling, roof drainage (what percentage will be handled through the infiltrators), and the note regarding loaming and seeding disturbed areas (needs to be removed). M. Coakley motioned to close the Public Hearing; J. Walsh seconded; all agreed. M. Coakley motioned to issue a standard Order of Conditions, adding Special Condition #31 which
states that the plan is to be revised to depict (1) the soil of debris stockpile outside the 100’ buffer, (2) removal of note under ESC to loam and seed disturbed areas, and (3) 50% of roof runoff to be captured in the infiltrators shown at road side of house; C. Franz seconded; all agreed. The Order will be held until the revised plan has been received at the office.
7:30 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING – Notice of Intent & Stormwater Control Application – Sylvan Realty Trust – Stiles Road (Lots 1 & 2)
Construction of two single-family homes.
James Tetreault was in attendance for the applicant. He explained that this is a slightly different version of a previous filing in 2003 under DEP #115-235. One difference being that the previous owner was not able to sell a triangular parcel of land which the existing cart path passes south of where it crosses a perennial stream due to his bankruptcy process. Stormwater will be addressed, and two dry wells are proposed. Mr. Tetreault stated there will be no alteration to the wetlands, and less than 10% to the riverfront area. There was discussion as to whether to accept the original delineation or require new peer review due to the age of the original filing. M. Coakley said he would be satisfied with flags from C1-25 being re-established. D. Duffy was concerned with the prior
impact vs. the current impact. He would like to know the width of disturbance concerning the cart path. He would also like to see the detail of the force main showing depth, width and backfill material included on the plan and how it will be accomplished. Because of the nature of the work, any impact on the resource areas needs to be re-evaluated by the applicant. Mr. Tetreault will address the conservation restriction on Lot 1C at the next meeting. J. Walsh had concerns with the dry wells. Mr. Tetreault will re-evaluate what they are proposing. Skip Resseguie (200 Stiles Road) stated that the pipes were put in by John Ducat to do logging. He further stated that a Cease and Desist was ordered by the Commission and no action was taken. He said he has a shallow well and has cost him $30K to fight for it. He said he proved the stream was perennial. He said that he would have no problem with the applicant building just one
house. Action items include re-flagging through C25; site visit after completion to decide if peer review is needed; and the inclusion of crossing details on the plan. The applicant requested a continuance. M. Coakley motioned to accept the request for continuance; C. Franz seconded; all agreed. It will be on the April 22nd Agenda at 7:15 p.m.
7:45 p.m. RAND-WHITNEY – Notice of Intent & Stormwater Control Application – 160 Shrewsbury Street
Construct 411,650 sf office/manufacturing/warehouse building with associated driveways, parking areas and utilities.
Ken Strom (Thompson-Liston Associates) and Ken Kozak (Cutler Associates) were in attendance. Mr. Strom gave an overview of the new NOI filing. It is for work beyond the crossing. The expansion will now be for a corrugated cardboard manufacturing process instead of a packaging process. Scott Heim flagged the additional wetlands on March 8th. “B” series flags were done last fall. They need to be re-established since they need to be there for the duration of the project. Mr. Strom said the septic system has been approved by the Board of Health. He will submit reports concerning the testing that was done (texture and ground water elevations). According the Graves reports, the design is not complete. Mr. Strom said that they withdrew the
application for a special permit. They have a new hearing scheduled with the Planning Board in April. C. Burkhardt will communicate with the Planning Board to coordinate their consultant (Graves Engineering) review of local stormwater regulations in addition to Graves other review scope for the Planning Board. EcoTec will review wetland delineations, identify resource area(s) and potential impacts to resource areas. Mr. Strom requested a continuance. Michael Ridinger (106 Shrewsbury Street) asked how much basin 2/3 would hold and was told less than three acres. M. Coakley motioned to accept the request for continuance; J. Walsh seconded; all agreed. It will be on the April 22nd Agenda at 7:45 p.m.
8:00 p.m. COMMISSION BUSINESS
