Application #07-04, Noice Properties, LLC (owners), Kevin F. Morin (agent), 90 Black Rock Turnpike. Received 2/20/07. Discussion and possible vote on an application to re-set existing stone wall, install footing drain and earthmoving associated with a proposed resubdivision of Lot B-1 into two buildable lots. Site Walk 3/4/07. Discussion 3/6/07. Public Hearing opened 4/17/07. Public Hearing closed 5/1/07. Discussion 5/15/07.
M. Lillis was present for the applicant.
On the motion of W. Perlman and the second of J. Ross, the Commission voted unanimously to approve Application #07-04 with the following conditions: 1) the stone wall which defines the eastern boundary of the above property shall remain undisturbed in its entirety. Further the stone wall which runs east to west located in the northern lot shall remain undisturbed from its eastern extremity to a point defined on the CCA map sheet 3 by the regulated area (approximately ninety feet of undisturbed stone wall.) This approval condition will maintain the existing water seepage noted at the confluence of the above walls in its present state;
2) The level spreader on the southern lot shall be located in the extreme northeast corner of the allowable building area as pictured on the CCA map sheet 3 (topo line 508). Further, the land to the east of this level spreader shall remain undisturbed so that the flow to the wetlands from this level spreader does not encounter new materials that may be carried to the wetlands. This will direct the non septic footing drain flow over the longest possible path interrupted by the stone wall to the wetlands. That should allow ground re-absorption consistent with the construction plan.
