Explanation: The existing wording makes reference to 310 CMR 280.21 through 280.25. This is an incorrect regulatory citation. The correct regulatory citation in the Massachusetts State Wetlands Protection Act is 310 CMR 10.05(4) The Board of Selectmen recommends approval of Article 18 by a vote of 4-0 The Finance Committee recommends approval of Article 18 by a vote of 6-0 MOTION MADE BY SELECTMAN O'HARA: Motion: I move the Town vote to approve Article 18 as printed in the warrant with the exception of the phrase, "or take any other action relating thereto." Motion passes unanimously at 9:02 pm Article 19 To see if the Town will vote to amend Chapter 172-5 of the General Bylaws as follows: Amend the language of subsection(A) (1) as follows: Replace the phrase "an Administrative Review Level I"with"a permit" Preface the existing language of Subsection(A) (2)with the following: "Any person filing a Notice of Intent application and/or a request for an Amended Order of Conditions with the Commission must, after being given written notice by the Commission of the time and date of the required hearing, notify all abutting property owners within 100 feet of the boundary of the property on which the work is proposed, according to the most recent records of the Assessors, including owners in another municipality", or take any other action relating thereto. Submitted by the Conservation Department Explanation: The Conservation Department no longer has an approval procedure called `Administrative Review Level I". Replacing this phrase with `permit application" accurately reflects the current procedures. The existing language in Subsection(A)(2) must include this prefacing language as it is required under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act(310 CMR 10.05(4)) and thus must be reflected in the local bylaw. The Board of Selectmen recommends approval of Article 19 by a vote of 4-0 The Finance Committee recommends approval of Article 19 by a vote of 6-0 MOTION MADE BY SELECTMAN SHERMAN: Motion: I move the Town vote to approve Article 19 as printed in the warrant with the exception of the phrase, "or take any other action relating thereto." Motion passes unanimously at 9:03 pm 28
