Seconded by Mr. Oakley. All in favor. Dave Crispin with BSC Group is present this evening with Tamara Joyce from New Seabury. They are here seeking approval for 5 new houses on Great Oak Road. The 450ft. cul-de-sac is consistent with the previous 190 houses and lot sizes. The hammerhead design at the end of the cul-de-sac is to reduce pavement, reduce runoff, and he ensured the Fire Department is okay with it. The Town water main and sewer is in the front yard and not in the street, underneath the sewer line. The easement with sewer is not in the road. All utilities and storm drainage are underground. There is a large detention facility with a forebay into an existing kettle hole, with a recharge system on the bottom. They met with the BOH, there were two comments addressed to them, comments 9 and 10. Mr. Crispin stated his interpretation aligns with what the regulations say to do. The catch basins every 300 ft. and the roadway not being less than 1% grade, that is impossible with the short vertical curve. Ms. Waygan noted they will draft up the decision and discuss it at the next meeting before the Public Hearing is closed. Mr. Crispin reiterated revised plans with drainage recalculations are in both the Boards and consultant's hands. Mr. Tobin noted the revised plans were submitted electronically this afternoon and have not been distributed for the Board's review yet, as the deadline for meeting packet submission had closed, with no time for engineer peer review, and no provided comments. All will be included in the next meeting packet. Jean Christy, Board Engineer, noted this peer review was a little different as she assisted the BOH in their decision. First findings were issued November 26t". Next round of issued findings were issued December 10t". Revised stormwater report review is slated for this coming week. A lot of comments have been addressed. There is additional correspondence from the Fire Department about providing a hardpack entrance to the cul-de-sac, located on the new plans. 11
