Town of Mashpee Conservation Commission 16 Great Neck Road North Mashpee, MA 02649 NOI 9 Tuspaquin Road, Mario & Gina Recupero. Proposed installation of sunroom over Existing deck(Representative: Wet Tech Land Design) 43- 3366 • Represented by Mike Cannadier of Wet Tech Land Design. Mr. Cannadier explained that this was his second appearance before the Commission. He had initially filed an RDA, but at the Commission's direction, refiled as a Notice of Intent to address concerns about roof runoff. The project proposed replacing the existing rear deck with a sunroom within the exact same footprint. No vegetation or tree removal was required. The work would be performed mostly by hand, with limited use of a mini excavator. The lot is preexisting and nonconforming, but the project would reduce lot coverage from 16.5% to 15.8%. To mitigate roof runoff, two 50-gallon dry wells in oversized stone pits were proposed, one on each side of the sunroom. • Commissioners asked clarifying questions about the location of the dry wells. Mr. Cannadier confirmed that one would be placed under the patio,requiring temporary removal and resetting of pavers. The pavers are interlocking and permeable, set in stone dust. There would be no surface grate, but access could be gained by lifting the pavers if maintenance were needed. Space limitations on the lot left few alternatives for placement. • Mr. Kent reported that an abutter had raised concern during his site visit,though the issue was civil and outside the Commission's jurisdiction. The abutter simply requested that property corners be staked before construction due to the close proximity of neighboring lots and a shared beach area. No formal objection was filed, and the Commission agreed the request was reasonable. Commissioners also confirmed that the lawn standard under Regulation 31 would apply,governing nitrogen fertilization. MOTION: To close and issue an Order of Conditions for 9 Tuspaquin Road, including the requirements to stake property corners before construction and comply with Regulation 31. Motion by: Richard Sahl Seconded by: Sandi Godfrey Vote: Motion passed by unanimous vote. (Steven Cook, Sandi Godfrey, Paul Colombo, Richard Sahl)
