16 C`Yeat Neck Road -North <br />:Nlashpee, iWassachusetts O2649 <br />Lynne Barbee- She generally likes the concept of the cottages, but it occurred to her that <br />there could be 90 people living there and it would be really crowded. She would like to know if <br />they have considered solar. <br />Dennis Ring added solar is not currently part of their design. Homes will be built to the latest <br />HERS energy conservation rating, all homes have to reach a certain score and the lower the <br />better. It's done by window insulation, current electrical code, new building outfitted for electric <br />vehicle, furnaces, and heat pumps. They are all about energy conservation and there are <br />many ways to reach HERS score, but solar is not off the table. If you outfit the house with <br />certain minimums you get 5 points off the HERS score. Their sustainability director helps with <br />these initiatives. <br />Terry Ronhock- She would like to commend the Board for answering her questions. She <br />knows clean water is an issue from fertilization and that golf amenity will be nice and lush with <br />a forebay near, but she questions the shape and the fertilization. She wonders if it could be <br />designed as to not see it from Quinaquisset. <br />Mr. Eddy stated grading is done so it diverts into the forebay. They fertilize according to best <br />management practices. They can coordinate with Catherine Laurent to augment landscaping, <br />it will be visible to a certain extent but screened to decrease visibility. The DPW wants to see <br />Cape Cod berm asphalt along the edge of roads 3 inches high, as edge treatment controls <br />runoff. <br />Ms. Faulkner asked about lot coverage in 1985 zoning, the Special Permit for Willowbend does <br />not have a lot coverage requirement. <br />Mr. Eddy commented building lot coverage is just under 20%. Current zoning today is based <br />on structures not impervious. The building footprint including the garage is 19%. It has 3.5 <br />acres of structures and garages, not counting decks. <br />Ms. Waygan would like to have a site visit and invite Planning Board members. She wants to <br />see where this golf cart pathway will be. People speed on that road in the summer. <br />Ms. Waygan noted an email from Tom Fudala she read into the record. He stated the <br />mitigation plan is very interesting. She sent the packet to a couple people as material was not <br />available on the website. He responded that the numbers work under the Special Permit and <br />similar adjustments have been done in the past. One problem under the Special Permit and <br />multifamily bylaw, he is referring to Special Permit for 40-50ft natural vegetative buffer along <br />VA <br />
