At that point, the presentation was ended so that they could make the plan revisions, site visit and do some additional staking at the property. This is a case�where there are two adjacent parcels which currently one is undeveloped vacant land and contemporary single family hone on the other. The Conservation Commis ion, in recent past,had issued a permit for development of the second single family residence on the southern property which was never built, it remained undeveloped. Mr. Vaccaro wanted to mote that this was an important point for everyone. This project mould e1fim'nate the concept of two iie- �side single family residences and replace it with a one single family that straddles across the current property line. It will have a detached garage and the main house is much urger than what is existing. They are not getting any closer to the resource area than what it is now. At the site visit last weep, Agent McManus expressed some concern about the size of the deck where it encroaches closest to the coastal bank and also the amount of clearing that would extend to the undeveloped area of the site. Mr.Vaccaro explains that they reduced the size of the deck and made the stairways that access the deck on the lower level more narrow. Basically, they brought down the amount of structure in that area within o' of the wetland and they also brought the work limits back to basically follow the edge of what had been previously maintained as lawn so it no longer extends out to the undeveloped portion of the property. There was also a question regarding the cinderblock patio on the north side of the house which is being removed arra will be restored with good native plantings that lrlic Talbot has been working on. lir. Vaccaro explains that Mike Talbot from Talbot Ecological Landscaping has a-mitigation plan acrd is present if theme are any questions that meed addressed regarding the proposed restoration. -Mr. Slavinski from Cape & Island Engineering is also present. Mr. Vaccaro would life to mention that the septic system will be moved way out and will have an alternative treatment system which will improve the situation. He feels that this is a good opportunity r the town to basically preserve what little undeveloped land is left on 1 opponesset Creek. Agent McManus states that he did meetNNqth Mr. Vaccaro and they did discuss and clarify where the deck outline wasg oin based n the staking in the field and he is satisfied with the increased planting g area by removing the hard patio.
