i <br /> conditions. The drainage system was developed as per Mashpee and State guidelines and Mr. <br /> jala described the specifics of the proposed system. A detailed landscape plan had also been <br /> developed for the site and the sign had already been submitted to Design Review. fir_ Ojala also <br /> described the floor drains inside the building and confirmed that irrigation would be installed to <br /> maintain the landscaping. <br /> Mr. Rowley expressed concern regarding the drainage area located at the back, which was the <br /> lowest point on the site, and its ability to meet the 100 year storm due to contours_ Mr. Rowley <br /> recommended that it be addressed either with additional infiltration, or elevation for the bottom, <br /> in order to ensure protection from any potential run off. Mr. Rowley also stated that there were <br /> no forebays needed as a berm to control sediment. Mr. Rowley referenced the T-Base fire <br /> access, reclaimed asphalt that compacts, and expressed concern about the catch basins located in <br /> the same area which may result in sediment carry over dine to the impervious surface_ Mr. <br /> Rowley recommended paging the surface or removing the catch basins and adding surface <br /> treatment to run the flow overland. Mr. Rowley suggested that there were minor details needing <br /> to be shown on the plan, such as dimensions for the paved areas and minor-adjust ents to-the <br /> contours. Regarding the turning radius, Mr. Rowley expressed concern.about a turn for the <br /> ladder truck from Commercial Street to the front of the building, suggesting that the curb corners <br /> be slightly adjusted. <br /> Mr. Oj ala referenced the 100 year event and stated that the overflow would likely be 2 8 1/ and <br /> could be addressed during construction, but noted that a deep basin at Cape Cod Healthcare <br /> would address any is ues. Mr. Rowley stated that at least a foot of difference was needed <br /> between the minimal elevation and the 100 year flood elevation and recommended that the <br /> drainage area be depressed rather than be built up. Mr. Ojala believed that their plan met the <br /> letter of the law. Mr. Fudala expressed concern regarding the need for a 10 foot buffer at the rear <br /> of the site noting that the property line was cleared to the drainage area. lair. 0 afa responded <br /> that the bylaw allowed for a landscape plan that included a screening brush. Mr.Fudala pointed <br /> out that only a portion of landscaping had been identified, and that, without a letter from the <br /> property owner, the Planning Board could not waive the 10 foot natural buffer. III-. Fudala <br /> suggested relocating the retention area away from the property line. Mr. 0 ala referenced a stand <br /> of trees that would provide a buffer for the retention area. Mr. l al arini stated that a letter would <br /> e needed from the abutter. Mr. Ojala stated that it was his belief that the Planning Board could <br /> waive the requirement as long as the landscaping provided a buffer. The vice Chair stated that- <br /> the Planning Board would not waive the 10 foot natural buffer zone without a compelling reason. <br /> Mr. Ojala stated that he would add bushes or relocate the drainage 10 feet. Mr. Ojala expressed <br /> concern about the slopes but indicated that he would make the change. <br /> Regarding the forebays, Mr. 01ala.stated that he would consult with Mr. Carter, though he felt <br /> the plan met the letter of the law as is. Regarding the fire lane access and T-base surface, Mr. <br /> i ala.stated that a smoother surface would be provided to improve infiltration. Mr. Rowley <br /> suggested that snow plows would likely ruin the surface and did not agree with maintaining the <br /> catch basins in that area and again shared his reasoning. Mr. Ojala agreed to remove the two <br /> catch basins and regrade the area and draft the revisions. Mr. Fudala inquired whether the <br /> surface would hold the fire trucks and Mr. Rowley confirmed that it would be suitable with the <br /> use of the platform and stabilizers. In reference to the curbing issues at the front of the building, <br /> 1r. Ojala indicated that he had net with the Fire Department and did not want to re-radius the <br /> curb due to attractive trees in the area. Mr. Rowley recommended that tapering would be <br /> minimal and occur at the outside radius of the island, and would not impact the trees. Mr. Ojala <br />
