Minutes of Meeting of <br /> Design Review Committee <br /> Tuesday, February 16, 2021 <br /> Mashpee Town Hall Waquoit Meeting Room <br /> Jonathan wanted to confirm that there are no buildings being proposed. <br /> Raul said; no buildings, correct. There will be no signage. <br /> Jonathan mentioned that currently there are new buildings located on <br /> Evergreen Circle; such as Cape Cod Coffee, Cape Cod Dog Center, and <br /> Fairway Lawn Center. These are all new buildings that are landscaped very <br /> nicely. He wanted to know what kind of landscaping is proposed to screen <br /> the yard of materials, etc. from the neighbors that have on going new <br /> businesses. <br /> Raul said that the owner intends to install some flowering low growing trees <br /> along the front on Evergreen. He does not propose to do any landscaping <br /> within the sites, but he will be doing some tree scape along the Evergreen <br /> property line to his contractor's yards. <br /> Jonathan asked about the neighbors on the side. Raul said that the owner <br /> could follow the same idea installing some screening along the sides. <br /> Jonathan would like to know the plan for the sake of the other business on <br /> Evergreen Circle. <br /> Raul said he will ask the property owner about screening and planting along <br /> the street and side property lines. He said it should not be an issue of <br /> concern for the developer. He asked if the Committee would prefer flowering <br /> trees or evergreen trees. He suggested that certain plants should be kept <br /> away from the drainage. He pointed out that one of the lots adjacent to open <br /> space land has some trees. Some trees are being retained on the front of <br /> Evergreen, but could be enhanced with additional trees and along the side <br /> could be aligned with some screening and will coordinate that with the <br /> neighbors. <br /> Jonathan asked if there will be security fencing. Raul said there is no <br /> proposed fencing or gate, but this could be discussed at the ZBA meeting <br /> that will be scheduled at a future date. <br /> Jonathan would like to see a landscape plan. Raul said he will have that <br /> prepared when the application is submitted to the ZBA. <br /> Miles agreed with Jonathan's comments. He would like to see a <br /> continuation of the trees, and suggested possibly some oaks, scrub pines, <br /> white pines, or some native trees to be consistent. He suggested if there is <br /> tree removal within the site, they can be replanted to provide a buffer in the <br /> negative spaces. <br /> 3 <br />
