Also present was Mr. Cauley, with Cauley Engineering who provided the site plan. The project involves a 7 ft. by 7 ft. spa that is located in the rear of the property. The setback requires 50 ft. setback from the wetlands. The Board asked for the existing lot coverage. The applicant provided the Board with a plan that depicts the lot coverage. The Board wanted to know the closest point of any existing structure to the wetlands. Mr. Cauley said the dimension from the house is 41.1 ft. The spa will be 46 ft. Mr. Goldstein said that the setback of the existing deck is 41.1 ft. from the saltmarsh, not the top of the coastal bank. The Board had a discussion and realized that the plan does not reflect the information they required.

Mr. Bonvie suggested that the applicant provide a revised plan that requires the existing structure coverage is (what)? and the proposed structure coverage is (what)?. There also needs to be a notation that 100% of the lot is located within the flood zone under Section 174-33 and MGL Section 131 Section 40A. Mr. Miller asked for an extension until April 23, 2025.
