Brandwein & David Goldman, Trustees, 233 Hooppole Road. Permit an existing pier, ramp and tee structure. RDA Resource Area: Land Under Waterbodies and Waterways, John's Pond Matt Costa, Cape & Islands Engineering, represented the applicants. He stated the proposal is to obtain a permit for an existing pier, ramp and tee structure. This dock didn't have a Chapter 91 license and in order to get one we need approval from the Conservation Commission. The structure has been there for more than 20 years and the property has recently changed hands. He noted the dock is a seasonal dock and there is no proposed work to take place. The Agent stated this dock is a grandfathered dock and is exempt from Natural Heritage review. The home address needs to be displayed on each separate portion of the dock and that the dock be put in the same place every year so it doesn't disturb any additional habitat for freshwater mussel. No comment from the public Motion: Mr. Smith moved a Negative Determination to include the conditions as outlined by the Conservation Agent, seconded by Mr. Dalton. Vote unanimous 4-0 6:27 John & Constance M. Henry, 21 Kim Path. Proposed construction of new deck onto existing dwelling.
