Charman Fitzsimmons states an issue with the setback and Agent McManus says that there is <br /> encroachment in the left area only with the corner of the deck and in this case} because of the <br /> existing turf from the top of the bank to the deck is pre-disturbed and will not cause adverse impact. It <br /> is a small addition and does not involve ACEC. Mr. Allen asks that since it is a teard wn and not <br /> using the same foundation, why can it not be moved back. Chairman an Fit simm ns states that the <br /> "bump-putt, goes to the ' setback line. Mr. Vaccaro agrees but also points out that the area is not <br /> naturally vegetated and instead lawn and storage area. <br /> Michael Talbot from Michael Talbot &Associates explains that there are no native plants to be found <br /> n the lot. Currently, the dune area is covered with Rosa Ragosa. The hands aping reduces the � <br /> storm storage and when removed and replaced with mitigation, the storm storage will be increased. <br /> p g <br /> John Slavinski from Cape & Islands Engineering explains that they were very careful about the <br /> planning. The new plan is 27 squ. ft. more than the current existing layout and mentions that the <br /> concrete pad and part of the garage fall within the g' setback which they will be removing and <br /> reve etated. Agent McManus read a section of the bylaws — Land subject to coastal storm; <br /> Regulation 25 for the record because it talks about naturally vegetated areas and this project involves <br /> an old garage, concrete pad and lawn. He mentions that it should be taken into consideration the <br /> value to what is being Inst and what is being offered for mitigation. Mr. Vaccaro confirms that they will <br /> be losing 450 squ. ft. of lawn which will be replaced with structure and mitigation. The structure will <br /> be an additional 27 squ. ft.. Mr. Slavinski re-states that the additional 27 squ. ft. is just grass. <br /> Chairman Fitzsimmons believes it is still an issue and is not compelling to allow the structure to be <br /> closer to the bank. Most of the Commissioners would like to see the house moved back about 10 ft. <br /> Mr. Vaccaro confirms that mooring back the structure will require less mitigation. Agent McManus and <br /> the Board recommend a continuance. He also requests a staking where the garage will be <br /> encroaching into a naturally vegetated area within the buffer to flood zone A. <br /> Motion made, seconded and unanimously carried for a continuance until 8/19/10 t 7:1prn <br /> 7:12 William Sullivan SE 3-2610(180 Daniels Island Fid) Three small additions and fence with gate <br /> 1 Con al fran7 July 22, 2010 <br /> Resource Area* Popponessett Creek, Saltmarsh, Land Subject to Coastal Storm Flowage <br /> Jack Vaccaro from Vaccaro Environmental Consulting explains that thea have been some changes <br /> since the last meeting and that new plans have been submitted. The biggest change is the removal <br /> of the detached building which was the focal point of discussion at the last meeting. The project <br /> simply has small additions to the existing residence; adjustment to the front porch, master bedroom <br /> addition, ar gazebo addition to the southwest corner and a bump out breakfast nook off of the existing <br /> kitchen. The additions are same as the last plans stated with the exception of the gazebo which was <br /> reduced slightly in size. The owners would also like to install a fence at the southeast corner. There <br /> is also a revised landscape restoration plan that was reduced in mitigation because the detached <br /> building was removed. The entire increase in building footprint is about 450 sq. ft. but are reducing <br /> total deck sizes about 150 sq. ft. Agent McManus mentions the removal of the Japanese Pines and <br /> Pin Oaks and would prefer not remove trees in the vista corridor. Mr. Vaccaro says that they have <br /> made a commitment to preserve the Pin Oaks but would still like to remove the black pines which the <br /> Agent agrees as they are being shaded out anyway and will not survive. <br /> Arlene Wilson from A.M. Wilson Associates represents an abutter and she is questioning the <br /> discrepancies of the landscape plan and the engineering plan. She mentions the stain on the master <br /> bedroom deck, south side of house shows a significant amount of fill on the engineering plans and a <br /> vertical gall that was on previous landscape plan in which itseems" to be gone now but still shows <br /> curves.that outline planting beds and grading changes. Mr. Gurnee asks what the impact is and Ms. <br /> Wilson answers than the concern is with run off towards the marsh and the abutter's property along <br /> with erosion. Ms. Wilson says the pool equipment area is different on the plans and the work area <br /> line is also different. She also comments on an area where there will be re-planting that it is included <br /> with the mitigation formula and should not be. <br /> 2 <br />
