Proposed demolition and NOI reconstruction'of single-family dwelling with attached garage, landscaping/hardscaping modifications and mitigation plantings. Michael Borselli from Falmouth Engineering presented plans to demolish and reconstruct existing dwelling. Agent had a few clarification questions: regarding the driveway layout, was there any looking into incorporating the driveway/garage into the portion of the house to avoid additional clearings? Mr. Borselli said yes, early on. The floorplan of the house, that bump out is a bedroom, so it didn't lend itself to a connecting garage in that location and the owner is trying to put the garage in a place where it didn't block the facade of the house from the road. Mr. Sweet commented if you're going to walk outside anyway...Agent asked what are the invasive species to be removed? Mr. Borselli said he can get that information for you. There is some briar in there they were looking to replace with shrubs. They can look at altering that. Agent talked about bylaws regarding lawn close to coastal bank. Mr. Borselli answered they're removing a patio and wanted to replace it with something other than shrubs. He said they're open to suggestions. Agent said anything but grass, Katelyn Cadoret commented a different kind of ground cover. Agent said plans in the past included mitigation area, but it's better to have a detail mitigation plan in place when you first come to the Commission. Mr.
