The Board recently approved a similar project at 17 Overlook Knoll road, and this project will not be substantially more detrimental than what currently exists. Attorney K.irrane mentioned that his clients will comply with the DPW Director comments regarding any water runoff to remain onsite. The plan that was submitted was not the most recent but he requested the Board could condition upon receiving a revised plan. There will be dry-wells installed. The proposed driveway will have the ability to contain the water onsite. The area on Seaview will have impervious surface and will not create any additional runoff. There were concerns mentioned regarding the new design of the driveway to be from front to back which currently allows vehicles to cut through from one street to the other street. His clients want to eliminate any vehicles driving on her lot. The new design will eliminate any vehicles driving through from one street to the next street. The Board had a conversation regarding driveway issues that exist with the homes in this neighborhood. Mr. Morris mentioned to the Board that he does not have any authority over driveways. He was under the impression that each association would require permission, but Overlook Knoll Toad is not part of the Popponesset Beach Association, and Seaview road is part of this association. Mr. Bonvie wanted to confirm the required corrections to the plan, one is the drainage to remain onsite, and the second is the driveway. The driveway on Overlook Knoll Road will be paved, but will have an infiltration system. The Seaview Ave area will be impervious. A motion could be made that all water runoff will be captured and retained onsite. 12
