Certificate of Compliance
1. 60 Hodges Avenue, Comm. Of MA, (COC), SE73-2379  The field report stated that this project was for the demolition of 25 buildings/structures, disposal of debris, and the remediation of the disturbed area at the above address.  The work has been completed but MR is unable to verify that wetland resource areas were unaffected.  MR recommends that this filing be continued to February 7, 2011 in the hopes that the snow cover will be diminished so that she can inspect the property.  Motion to continue to February 28, 2011, DB, second RC, so voted.



Public Hearings
1. Lot 19A South Precinct Street, Poillucci/Global Property Services, (NOI), SE73-2462  The field report states that this project is for the construction of a single family home with associated grading and utilities on a property along the west side of South Precinct Street within the buffer zone of a BVW.  This wetland was previously approved under an ORAD issued on December 13, 2005 (SE73-2120).  This line was flagged by Pilling Engineering for this filing.  MR is unable to verify the wetland due to the snow cover and does not wish to assume that the wetland remained unchanged since 2005, therefore, she recommends that this filing be continued to February 7, 2011 in the hopes that the snow cover will be diminished so that she can inspect the property.  Representative Lucas Klim was present at the meeting.  Motion to continue to February 7, 2011, DB, second ST, so voted.
