Install sub-surface foundation drains around the perimeter of the main house. The trenching will be approximately 3 feet wide and five feet deep.

All excess fill will be removed and placed outside the buffer zone.
- (No Site Visit) CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE SE 12 – 782; ARONOFF; 76 Menemsha Inn Rd.; AP 21-33: An Order was issued in November 2016 to redevelop this small lot with a stream, wetlands and Vineyard Sound frontage. The property was not purchased. Recommend issuing a Certificate for an Invalid Order of Conditions because the work never commenced. The property was sold and we have a new Notice of Intent to redevelop the property. It is on the April 18 agenda.
- (No Site Visit) FOLLOW UP DISCUSSION CARLOS MONTOYA FOR TWO SISTERS RLTY. TR.; 35 Harlock Pond Rd.; AP 1-12: A negative determination was given to create a meadow along the winding driveway. There is a drainage swale in the meadow location. The determination had a condition to return with a planting and maintenance plan once the area was mowed—before April 1 bird nesting season.
- (No Site Visit) DISCUSSION TOM DELLA ROCCO FOR LARRY ROCKEFELLER; SE 12 – 536; 16 Greenhouse Lane; AP 33-31: An Order was issued in 2007 for stabilizing the bank with nourishment and planting vegetation. The Order allows on-going maintenance provided the plan is reviewed with the Commission before work begins (last maintenance 2012). Tom would like to review the maintenance plan.
- (No Site Visit) POSSIBLE DISCUSSION KATHLEEN TILTON; 10 Eben’s Lane; AP 13-21: The Commission is the Grantee of a CR that limits the development of this property. In November 2015 The Commission approved a change to Section B # 7 of the CR requested by the Grantor, the Vineyard Conservation Society (VCS). The change amended the exceptions to otherwise prohibited acts and uses to allow the placement and maintenance of a barn that does not exceed 2,000 sq. ft. provided it will not be used for human habitation. This shall be done in consultation with the Grantee to maximize consistency with the conservation purposes of the CR.
Kathleen would like to build a horse barn.
