Minutes of Meeting of Plan Review Committee Held Tuesday, November 6, 2018 Mashpee Town Hall Waquoit Meeting Room Catherine asked the Attorney if the applicant will be seeking relief for the parking. Attorney Kirrane explained that the bylaw affords the opportunity for an applicant to make an argument to the ZBA based on the proposed project criteria to allow the ZBA to approve parking in the front of commercial or industrial zoned buildings. If the ZBA doesn't believe that the criteria is met,then the application will be forced to appear with the Planning Board for a special permit by the Planning Board. He mentioned that he has had some success . in the past that the ZBA allowed to locate the parking in front of these types of buildings for safety reasons. Mr. Mendoza polled the committee to ask their comments. Glen Harrington, Board of Health Agent had the following comments; Vehicles inside the building • Industrial tight tank provided • Solid waste not feasible for septic because of the organic load will over tax the system.This will have to be discussed with the BOH for septic and site approval. • Soil air added to truck filters. • Dumpster to have an enclosure and is on a pad. • Drainage for sub-surface. Scott Learned, Engineer for Design, Learned commented that the size of the system is necessary but with the amount of waste it is not much different than a hotel or convalescent home. He said the system will capture hair waste and there's a maintenance schedule for anything involved in the system. Mr. Harrington contended that the issue on how the solids are addressed will be part of the Board of Health discussion when they go before them. Police Chief, Scott Carline asked Attorney Kirrane what will be the strategies for the security and noise. Attorney Kirrane mentioned there will be a vinyl fence that will be accessible for the animals and will be within a 3-4 ft. chain link fence within the 6 ft.vinyl fence. In addition, there will be personnel supervision for the dogs that on the outside of the building. The dogs will be crated inside in the suite areas or will be leashed. Chief Carline asked about the noise relative to the design of the windows. Mr. Learned said that he provides a lot of noise control with their buildings. Noise control starts with behavioral control. He said the designs of buildings with smaller groupings of animals and working with clients that have a lot of human supervision with the dogs. There's separation between the boarding and crating areas. Noisy animals are separated.The building shell is designed to minimize the outside noises, so there's a lot of sound insulation that controls the amount of noise. The windows are installed higher so the dogs cannot see, and avoids over stimulation to the dogs. 2
