Minutes of Meeting of Mashpee Design Review Committee Mashpee Town Hall Waquoit Meeting Room Tuesday, July 17,2018 Matt said that the proposed development consists of eleven(11)buildings fronting the units along the fairway. There will also be a meeting house with an in-ground pool. There are no interior property line setbacks and will construct right up to the parcel line between the developed area and golf course.There is a 40 ft. setback of the entire Willowbend perimeter that would apply along Sampsons Mill Road, and then down along the property line of the golf course parcel. These buildings are duplex town homes,five of the buildings are called the "Willow" and are approximately 2,600 sq. ft. in with a garage, golf cart storage, and individual driveways. There are also six slightly smaller town homes that are called the "Fairways", and are approximately 2,100 sq. ft. with a garage, individual drive way. There is a total of 22 units. The lot coverage within this parcel is approximately 13%and is under the 30% allowed by Zoning. The proposed entrance will be cutting in a new road through Sampsons Mill Road, 22 ft. in width. The proposed max slope is about 5%, all in conformance with design requirements. There is two parking spaces per unit, and accommodating a garage and driveway space up to two cars. Matt pointed out that the only proposed work within the 200 ft. river front is a slight piece of grading, and will require a filing with Conservation for an RDA and has very minimal impact. There is no Zoning Board filing required. Mr.Mendoza commented that Lot A on the plan depicts a lot of vegetation along Sampsons Mill Road compared to Lot C which looks likes wide open. He would like to see some shrubs and trees along that road way to separate between the road way and houses similar to what shows on Lot A. He would like a revised plan. Mr. Mendoza said if the property line between Lot A and Lot C is gone,under the building code standpoint, the property line going through the middle of the building, and the closer you get to a property line, you increase the rating of the wall which means there needs be a diagonal fire rated wall running through the building. Matt pointed out that the existing property line will be removed and.this was already approved by the Planning Board. Matt commented that the project has gone through a significant grading and drainage plan with the storm water facilities management throughout the development and meeting with the Mass DEP regarding storm water polices. Mr. Mendoza asked about lighting. Matt said lighting has not been laid out for this project, but they generally follow the Cape Cod Commission technical Bulletin 95. Mr. Cummings had a question regarding the guard rail fall protection behind the Fairway homes. Matt said that it's a retaining wall with segmented interlocking material. 2
