7:50 p.m. Procedure Sheet #2009-U for Sarto Caron of 29 Shore Dr. who wants to have cut down 1 dead pine tree and 1 large maple tree lakeside. Both to be cut down this winter onto the ice, leaving stumps. 3 pictures were reviewed. Suggestions of trimming the maple and cutting the 2 adjacent pine trees was made, but ultimate decision to be made by petitioner. Procedure Sheet signed by Mary vandenBerg.
8:00 p.m. Rocco Carabetta of 19 Craig Rd., Map R-21-C-04, DEP File #184-0233 gave us Green Hill Engineering’s updated plot plan approved by the Zoning Board of Appeals that moves the house 26’ away from the shoreline out of the flood plain. Mr. Carabetta stated that he will keep the flow-thru louvers in the foundation. He then spoke of his crumbling lakeside wall which he would like to replace with a sloping wall that would originate from the high water line to 4’ onto his shoreline. Since this type of wall would break the wave action, we approved the concept and project.
The meeting was adjourned at 8:35 p.m.

Patricia J. Caron, Secretary
