Bernard Munro of Land Planning, Inc. told the Board that all of the changes recommended on the plan review presented by the Board’s engineer, John DeLano of John DeLano and Associates of Halifax, at the last hearing session have been addressed. He said the amended plan also now shows a 135-foot access and drainage easement to abutting conservation land as requested by the Board at the last session.
Mr. DeLano said the only concerns he still had were minor in nature and he recommended that the Board approve the subdivision with those items submitted for his review prior to the Board’s endorsement of the plans.
One of his concerns was that the berm to be constructed at the emergency overflow swale needs to be shown on a detail sheet or with the proper notations to specify the fill material to be used in making the berm. He said that he preferred a silt or silt-clay material toed into the natural ground. He also said that the detail or notes for the berm noted in Item l needed to specify the riprap treatment along the berm and the height of the slope that the riprap will stop. Mr. DeLano said that the retaining wall detail for the roadway adjacent to the westerly boundary at the street has been shown on the plan. The retaining wall details, he said, are typical and appear to be able to work for this project. He recommended that the construction details
for the wall be submitted for his review before any lot releases are granted. Mr. Munro said that Mr. Delano’s concerns would be addressed. A brochure from the manufacturer on the wall to be constructed was given to the Board.
