Public Hearings
7:45 PM Notice of Intent for the construction of a 17,000 sq. ft. office/warehouse with associated site access, grading and utilities on the existing vacant lot at Industrial Blvd., Map 59, Lots 17-7 and 17-8 for Jack McGrail, J & G Mgmt., LLC, 162 Industrial Blvd. represented by Coneco Engineers & Scientists, 4 First St., Bridgewater, MA 02324 (DEP #175-0466) (New Hearing)
David Harris read the Public Hearing Notice and the abutters list was verified. Richard Lewis of J & G Management made the presentation. Jack McGrail, the owner and Joe Harnois from Coneco Engineering also attended. The wetland line had been approved previously through an ANRAD. The proposal calls for a 17,000 sq. ft. industrial building to house up to four tenants. The building would be accessed from Commercial Way with a 360-foot driveway to a 25-space parking lot. All runoff would be captured on-site into two drainage easements. The slopes will be stabilized with rip-rap. Haybales and silt fences are also proposed. A portion of the driveway extends into the 95-foot no disturb industrial buffer zone. The applicant was advised to submit a Request for Variance
from the By-law. Ms. Delaney suggested that detail for the crushed stone driveway is shown on the plan and that a NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) permit is applied for through the State.
Motion to continue to June 14th at 8:15 PM pending engineer review: David Harris
