Certificates of Compliance
Peter Jacobson (now Ronty)1982 648 South Orleans Road
COC request for an existing dock that is built as shown on the State License. On-Going Conditions for Existing Docks will be placed on the COC.
Harlow Voller (1982) 18 Sages Way
COC request for moving the existing house to the rear of the property outside the buffer to a coastal bank and building a new 3-bedroom dwelling and attached garage. The new dwelling is now listed as 6-bedrooms and the septic system is not in compliance with the BOH. A septic upgrade was not part of this old Order. The deck is a slightly different shape than the one proposed on the Site Plan. An As-Built Plan was submitted that shows the changes and also a freshwater wetland to the north. There is ivy under the deck and a mowed path to the shore that is wider than 4’. There is no erosion on the path and the lawn is a rough lawn.
Christopher Frey, Amended Order (2003) 71 Briar Spring Road
This COC for an Order for a pool, utilities, and other landscaping features within 100’ to a coastal bank was last heard June 6, 2006 and held for vegetation issues. The invasive species had not been removed from the upper bank and the area did not have good vegetative cover. There was no buffer to the top of the lower bank as it was being mowed. Under an AR (see below) they would like to mow at the top of the lower bank once a year (in Area 1 and 2) and keep a 4’-wide path mowed through Area 1. They would like the invasive species vinca to remain on the upper slope to the north. The upper bank to the east and south still has invasive species and large mulched areas and the COC should be held until all areas are vegetated.
Administrative Reviews
Christopher Frey 71 Briar Spring Road
Plant upper bank facing the bay (east) with bearberry and remove remaining invasive species. Plant upper bank facing south with golden aster, ice plant, and cinnamon fern. Prune inkberry to 4’ and bayberry to 6’ on the upper bank facing east. Some of these inkberry must be pruned so that the sprinkler can cover the bank. Mow buffer Area 1(level area between banks) and Area 2 (to the south behind swing set) once a year. Mow path through buffer Area 1 through the season. Use herbicide on an area near top of bank for bittersweet. Cut vines off of young red cedars planted with the 2003 Order (see above). Prune 7 trees down from the top for a view--5 junipers and 2 black cherries (See photo).
Sara Corcoran 111 Freeman Lane
Mow around the fruit trees and mow a path to the fruit trees. This field is mowed once a year in the winter. They would like to keep a path open to the trees in the summer. This work is in the buffer to a freshwater wetland.
Eugene R. Curry 50 & 36 Sipson’s Island
This AR was filed at our request for a brush pile near the top of the coastal bank. Work occurred on this site last year. A recent Site Visit showed that the trees that were forming the brush pile were cut from greater than 100’ away from the top of the coastal bank. This brush pile will be removed. No additional work within the 100’ buffer is proposed.
Mark Kritzman 204 Barley Neck Road
Remove 1 dying cedar near the drive. This work will have to be approved by the Tree Warden as it is a street tree.
