MEETING MINUTES MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS JANUARY 25,2023 4. For remaining construction inspections outside of the review of the grading and drainage easement area adjacent to the proposed driveway entrance Plan Review recommends inspections be conducted by the design engineer, Mr. Ojala, with stamped written reports provided to the Board of Appeals for its files certifying that construction was completed in accordance with the approved plans. 5. No outside storage of materials unless otherwise approved by the Board of Appeals with a modification to any special permit that may be issued. Mr. Reidy read the comments submitted by Catherine Laurent, DPW Director dated January 25, 2023 into the record; "I am in agreement with Ed's report with one correction. Commercial Street is the only Town-owned road so DPW will only assume maintenance of the drainage structures in the southwest corner of the drainage easement on the property (overflow for the catch basins on Commercial Street). Industrial Drive and Mercantile Way are both private roads so the association or businesses on those roads are responsible for maintenance of their associated drainage." Mr. Furbush read Mr. Pesce's comment regarding the DPW Director's concerns that Mr. Ojala provide an erosion control plan at a later date. Mr. Furbush wanted to know if there is a maintenance plan established for the site. Mr. Ojala said yes, an O&M plan is in place and recommended an annual mowing of the site. Mr. Pesce recommended that this be provided for both the southwest corner and northwest corner. The Board had a discussion and would like to know how this maintenance plan could be enforced. Mr. Junqueira said that Capewide Construction has a maintenance contract for these sites. Capewide establishes a one year contract with the owner of the businesses. It would be up to the owner to establish their own after that year. Mr. Pesce mentioned that the O&M plan that was included in the submittal does refer to maintaining the storm water detention areas, and making repairs as needed. The dry wells should be repaired as needed to restore function. Mr. Pesce said that if the systems fail the flow will be on the property. Mr. Ojala said that there are building mounted lights at the cable ends with down cast and are dark sky compliant. There are no separate poll lights. The sign will have small lighting which is located on the left side of the driveway at Commercial Street. The applicant will be required to submit their sign to the Design Review Committee. The Board had a discussion that if any new tenants occupy the remaining contractor bays would be under the discretion of the Zoning Enforcement Officer to determine the granting authority. There were no more comments from the Board. 10
