16 Great Neck Road North <br />_%lashpee, -Massachusetts 02649 <br />The Chair will not be seating Mr. Hansen for this Special Permit. It will be Mr. Balzarini, Mr. <br />Richardson, Mr. Fulone, Ms. Faulkner, and Ms. Waygan. <br />Mr. McElhinney continued stating their application was filed on January 201h with their first <br />Public Hearing on March 1st and a site visit on March 8th-The Public Hearing was continued to <br />April 19th. On March 1st the Board asked for prior modifications, the Cape Cod Commission's <br />decisions, operations of sewer treatment, a breakdown of every lot, confirmation from the Fire <br />Department, as well as updated landscaping to reflect enhancement of buffer and cart path <br />changes. <br />Matt Eddy with Baxter and Nye felt the site meeting was productive to see the vision of the <br />project. The main modification was the buffer along Quinaquisset and the realignment of the <br />cart path as it was pulled in substantially. The stormwater forebay was relocated and the <br />village green area shifted with the cart path to expand the buffer. The landscape plan was <br />prepared showing enhanced plantings along Quinaquisset. Revisions were made based on <br />comments from Mr. Pesce. The Fire Department provided written notice of approval. The <br />public benefits provided by this project include a restoration of 2.5 acres and converting to <br />natural wetlands. This is upwards of $250,000 in construction costs. It will eliminate the <br />pesticides and nitrogen that affects the system and Quaker Run that goes to Shoestring Bay. <br />He reminded the Board if this project is not approved there was a submitted concept that three <br />lots can be done by -right. This is 3 lots that will not be part of Willowbend Special Permit and <br />will have three septic systems which will provide additional nitrogen to Shoestring Bay. This <br />project will also eliminate the current septic on site. The forebay will pick up existing runoff <br />where it currently goes into wetlands right off the roads shoulder. This is significant benefits to <br />the greater good at the cost of Willowbend. <br />Ms. Waygan stated the fire hydrant was added and the one proposed is before the turnaround. <br />Mr. Eddy said they adjusted the turning radius for the fire truck. If they need to do any <br />modifications they can. The radius would increase to 50 as it is currently at 40 feet. <br />Mr. Balzarini stated he has a problem with that one building on the corner relative to its <br />proximity to the other unit. He also has a problem with the turnaround for the truck down to the <br />last hydrant. <br />Mr. Fulone thinks the proponent has made reasonable accommodations and thinks it's fine. <br />Any plans and proposed adjustments were gotten and he trusts the Fire Chief's memo. <br />Ms. Faulkner asked if this Special Permit of 14 units would close out any further building in <br />Willowbend. She is asking for a condition to ensure that is capped. She noted the setback is <br />40ft. but a 1987 Special Permit said it was 100 ft. for a setback. What would it look like if they <br />wanted it to be 100ft.? Mr. McElhinney answered the project would not be viable at that point. <br />13 <br />
