Mr. Bonvie asked if there is any offsite water/drainage moving toward the lot. Mr. Bunker said that the back of the lot has a retaining wall. Chairman Bonvie and some of the Board members had a lengthy discussion and still have concerns with the drainage. Mr. Reidy would like the information revised and noted on a site plan. Mr. Furbush thought that the drainage concerns should only pertain to this lot. Mr. Morris asked Mr. Bunker if he established the height measurements of the house from the original average grade. Mr. Bunker said; "Yes". Attorney Kirrane listed all the positive upgrades to the new construction, and is certain they will be established under the Special Permit criteria.
