1. File #W2003-22 – Application for a driveway crossing in the wetland area on
property located on easterly side of Mason Road (Map 6, Lot 14, 10.06 acres).
Owner: Eugene & Stephen Wasynczuk; Applicant: Bruce Pittman. (Received
5/12/03; No decision before 5/26/03; Public Hearing or Decision by 7/14/03.)
Owner Eugene Wasynczuk said that the applicant, Bruce Pittman, has backed out of their purchase agreement. He asked if the applicant’s name could be changed to that of his own and Stephen Wasynczuk’s.
A discussion ensued concerning whether it was proper and legal to change the applicant’s name to that of the owner. Jones said he thought Yorgensen would have to look into the matter.
Mr. Wasynczuk questioned the need for a new soil and plant study since one was done five years ago. Jones replied that it may be able to be used as long as some updating was done. Schreiber said it should be updated for the new driveway site.
Mr. Wasynczuk asked what he needed to provide before the next meeting, and Dirrigl replied that all information from the previous application should be bundled together.
Jones said the biological report has to be updated. He said that if Mr. Wasynczuk is not sure that everything will be put together shortly, he may request a 65-day extension. He said that the September 8 meeting might give an appropriate amount of leeway.
Mr. Wasynczuk questioned the need for a Public Hearing, and Schreiber replied that when substantial changes to a piece of property are proposed concerning wetlands, one is required.
Schreiber commented that the application would be much more straightforward if the house was located in the front of the property. Jones said the key is for the applicant to prove the alternative (front lot) is unbuildable.
Mr. Wasynczuk submitted a written request for a 65-day extension.
Jones said that the request has been approved.
MOTION: To seat S. Calvert for L. Kouyoumjin
By: Csiki Seconded: Dirrigl
