motion to open a public hearing. >> Motion to open public hearing. >> Second public meeting. I'm sorry. Um whoever approaches the podium, just u make sure you speak loudly and clearly. Thank you. Okay. So, we're going to start right out with meeting mail.
>> Anything? Nothing? >> No. >> Okay. Now, um we got a phone call from Jo I got a phone call from Julia today. We're going to put the uh I'll put it into a motion. We have Mr. Marsh requesting to go out of order. He's got
another meeting immediately following this. So, I'd like to entertain a motion that we move Mr. M from uh four to number one. Motion to move Mr. De's case to the um front of this hearing for tonight.
>> I'll second that. >> All those in favor? >> I have to excuse myself. >> All right. Public hearing amended order of conditions. Bane and Courtney Tracy 185 Road
SE00001-0586. A request for amended order of conditions was filed by Shane and Courtney Tracy for property located at 185 poison road map 10 lot 12A. The applicant proposes to amend the order of
conditions with a revised plans reflecting minor grading adjustments including a grass drainage swale and rip wrap area. Also proposed is the installation of a 6-ft wooden stockade fence along the northerly property line.
The applicant is represented by violent court. Plan name is site plan for 185 Mataposit Road dated March 3rd, 2026. Review of matters presented. Votes may be taken. >> So, can I just interrupt you, Mr.
Chairman? >> You can. >> Um, when you read this, of course, this is the time that it goes to print and post. So, there's been revisions that Mr. M can tell you about. So, >> just so just so everybody knows, these are the correct dates from the time we posted. There's been revisions. So,
we're still going to open this as a public hearing. So, I'll make a motion to open the public hearing. Motion open public hearing. >> All those favor. >> Uh Jim Marsh, I represent Shane and
Courtney Trace, the owners of 185 road. Um this is a point of procedure for us to continue with the amended uh request for amended order of conditions. Uh we we first have to address the enforcement.
We have to lift the enforcement so that you guys could then uh attend to the issue of the amendment. Okay. Um well we don't we you know that's we didn't need to publish or or notify Butters about any discussion about
taking votes on the enforcement because it's no by the >> I guess we can't address amendment enforcement. So, um, I will entertain a motion that we lift the enforcement
order at this time. >> I'll make a motion. >> Second, Cleveland. >> Second. >> All those in I have that. >> All right. Thank you. Um, with me
tonight is Steve from Farland Corporation. he will um go over a revised version of the plan that was um within the notice. Um I think the most recent revision was of >> So the revision date is uh May 12th.
>> Okay. >> I don't think that's either. >> Okay. So I'll go over the revisions. I do have a copy of the old plan um underneath in case we u have any questions on the old plan. But essentially proposed proposed revision
uh really has kind of three factors here. One, we're removing the entire retaining wall. Um two, we're no longer proposing a stockade fence along the property line and then we're extending that grass line swell. Um, it starts
pretty much at the bottom of the existing stone retaining wall and then goes all the way down pretty close to the street line. Um, and the purpose of that is obviously any water flowing across property will now be directed
down that as well towards the answer any questions. >> How far away is that? Um, sorry. Mr. Tom, >> how far away is that um proposed fence line from the road lay?
>> There is no We've removed the fence. >> Yeah, the fence has been deleted. Correct. >> So, do you have for an eye exam today? I dilated my eyes. I can't even see out of my glasses at all.
>> Yeah, that's >> it was a while ago. >> Thank you. I didn't Okay. the entire swale from the road. How far how far away is the swale from the road light >> here? >> Yeah,
>> is 20 ft. So you mean that's like 30 ft anyway? If that's accurate, would you say? >> Nope. That's actually from the the right of way. It's about
>> 16 17 ft. Um I mean there's still some >> I'm sorry. I I was looking at the other Right. Right. Right. How how wide is the trough? Well, >> there's a cross-section detail here. Um, so we've got 3 to one from the property
line going down one foot. We're keeping the swale minimum 2 and 1/2 ft wide and then we're coming back up at a proposed two to one. The reason we're trying to go so well, we're going a little steeper on that side is so that we don't have any issues with breakout
when it comes to existing septic system at the rear of the property. >> So that swale is 3 ft wide is what you're telling me? >> No, this so it it goes down well it starts going down. >> Yeah. >> Existing grade here. Here's the property line. It will go down 1 ft over 3 ft.
Then it's got a 2 and 1/2t wide level area and then it starts making its way back up. Um certainly that this is an improvement on what the existing conditions are there
to storm water. That being said, does anyone from the public have any comments? James 183. Um, obviously after the last meeting, we all met outside in the hallway. It was a very good meeting, very gentleman
meeting. I kind of told him a few of the issues I had. I talked with my engineer regarding it. Um, they actually, I think, went a little beyond than what we said on the handshake. Um, they even asked me if it was okay to remove the fence. Um, to me that shows, you know, character right there and, you know, not
just doing whatever they feel like. And, um, I thought that was a really a good gesture to ask first. And, um, like I said, my engineer looked at it. It's going to be visual by the eye what happens. So, it ain't like it's going to be a real small slope. It's almost pretty close to 2%. It's like 1.75,
right? Yep. So, um, I think it'll work. My own personal opinion. And also, I got a very good vibe from my engineer also. So, I'm just letting myself positive about it. >> I uh I do commend the uh property owner
for uh being diplomatic about things and trying to come to a resolution on this. >> Yep. >> Mr. Thomas, you >> pretty confident um at these changes at this point. I'm glad that, you know, we
can u finally put this behind us and the property owners. Um, you know, this has been an ongoing battle. Um, I I truly think that this will resolve the issues over there and uh, you know, let's move
on is what I say. >> Yeah. Thank you. I think it was good coordination with the >> and um, he had his opportunity to have reviewed and that you know for us that gives us comfort too that it was overseen or
looked over by right >> uh >> another set of eyes another another engineer's eyes so >> that being said we >> we have an amendment to the existing order >> and and I think that this kind of
corresponds with the character of the neighborhood as well and I think that's much appreciated because the kind kind of represents what's typical in that whole area. Look it over. Anything further?
Comfortable? >> Yeah, I looked at this today and I definitely think these changes are beneficial. That that being said, I'd like to entertain a motion to approve the amendment. >> Motion to approve.
>> Second. >> Yes. >> All those in favor? >> I very much appreciated. >> Sorry, it's all I got to close and I'll enterain motion
to close the public. >> All those in I Okay. So, we got um we're going to take another one out of order. Um we got Mr. Deini here. He has two. So, we're going to put him right in the row. We're just going to get rid of this um quick
extension here. Um continued extension request of for order of resource area delineation. Um TJ 540R Main Street SE00001-0544 a request for an extension to an existing order of resource area
delineation was filed by TJA 540R Main Street Efficient LLC property located at 540 hour Main Street map 11. The applicant has requested an extension for the proposed 3.116
MW photovolic solar farm with associated uh infrastructures. The applicant is represented by Asa Smith of Atlantic Designs uh incorporated view of man taking. Um the peer review is still
being determined. So um did he request for a continuence? >> So he did not request for a continuence. Um but the peer review is still being determined. Um, I reached out to Mark
who was suggested by Brad Holmes. Um, and then, uh, his colleague Nate is now taking on the peer review. So, he came up with the peerreview estimate. I sent that over to ASA and now I'm waiting for ASA's response review on that, but he did not request a continuence.
>> Okay. When's the next meeting? >> May 27th. >> All right. I'm going to um >> what's that? >> Yeah. I'm going to uh request that this is extensive of the next meeting being May what? 20th. >> 27th. >> 27th.
>> So move. >> Have a second. >> Second. All those in favor? I >> I >> Okay. Move to >> Yep. Okay. New business. >> No. Wow. Oh, I never knew his name was that. What is that? How do you say that?
America, Dave. Is that how you say Matt's name? >> Everybody knows him as Mac, but >> America. Yeah. >> Wow. All my life. I never even knew that. >> You don't want to know his middle name. >> The first one. >> Oh, I don't care. Which one you want to do first?
>> 72. >> You want to do 72 Middle Road first? Yes, you do. Okay. >> Okay. Continue public hearing. Stormwater MD South Coast Properties LLC 72 Middle Road SE 001 0623. A notice of
intent in stormwater application was filed by MD South Coast Properties LLC 72 Middle Road map 24 lot 35. The applicant proposes to construct region like buildings with associated site work construction and detention within underfoot buffer zone of the boarding
vegetated wetland and to perform minor clearing filling and grading within the 200 foot riverfront boundary. The upper applicant is represented by David M. Deinion of Schneider Dominion and Leon Incorporated. Plan name is special residential development plan for over 55
units to be known as middle road metal as 72 metal road cushion it mass dated February 10 2026 project is being peer reviewed by Merrill Engineerings review of matters presented may be taken I'd like and motion that we open the
continued public hearing >> motion open continue public hearing >> second all those in favor >> how about it David >> oh >> thank you Mr. Mr. Chairman, good evening, Mr. Chairman and Commission members. For the record, I'm Dave Dickman from Schneider. I represent MD South Coast Properties
LLC for this property, which is located at 72 Middle Road. uh as read into the record, this essentially is a uh it's a special residential development under the zoning bylaws which allows multif family
housing on a single lot as long as the property meets certain criteria. Uh and what's proposed so the site itself a fairly large site with u not a lot of frontage on middle row. this an existing house located in the south northwest
corner of the h of the property uh tucked between the the dirt road and and middle road. This property uh abuts the police station property and a couple of residential properties to the north river is abudding the property to the
far east. I'll quickly go through what we went through in the first public hearing. For sheet two shows the existing conditions. Um what we have is a a site which uh flows from the park standpoint from its high point of the existing
house in a southeasterly direction eastly southeasterly direction towards the rear of the property. The wetlands being located towards the rear abing the river. Uh everything you see on the board here white is essentially is upland area. We have a a wetland system
which exists on the Christian Police Department property. Um you can see it here and then it it somehow meanders and then eventually connects to this system over here. It's one system wraps around uh to the east side of the property. There is a 200 foot riverfront boundary
from the river which cascades along the eastly boundary. Um the existing site um is partially it was farm field at one point in time. This is the this bubble line represents the tree line. Uh inside
of that or north of that is sort of a high grass out of control grass area. There are old dilapitated green houses and barns on the property. The uh proposal is to basically uh wipe out the house and all the buildings start fresh.
Turn this gravel road which currently services two houses 76 middle road and 76R into a paved road. Bring that down uh to a culdeac towards the east. Sheet three
coloring to help pick that a little clearer. So the green represents the wetland line. Uh the inner green represents the 100 foot buffer zone. As you can see, there are three duplexes proposed within the buffer zone, three
outside the buffer zone. The roadway will come right through the existing gravel road, basically replace it, and then end up at a cold sack for the three duplexes at the very end. Storm water be collected through a series of catch
bases here, here, and here. Uh directed through a storm water drainage system and into fairly large drain pond. Um, the drainage pond is located in an area that we had excellent soil results, deep water tables. So, it's actually a pond. Rather than building it up, we're
actually recessing it into the ground. We're actually doing cuts around this side and this side because we're we're recessing it into the hill. The darker green line, at least it looks green to me, that represents the uh natural
buffer of trees that will remain in place um and be the more or less limits of work. and erosion control running down the property line and then following that tree line going around our pond and then back up along this side. This blue line represents the 200
foot riverfront boundary. Uh we have a minimal amount of activity just just within that 200 foot area which we're clearing just to give um you know clear the trees out around the last building um located to the far right under the
formula for the over 55. You take the up times it by four. Uh technically we could have had 13 units but uh we're doing duplexes so we have six six duplexes or 12 units. So we're one under
what the max would be allowed. Every unit will have a driveway located from the road to the house with ample parking off streetet parking as well. Um pretty much all of the driveways are outside of the buffer zone. As you can see the roadway is outside of the buffer zone.
Back of the buildings are going to be walkouts. So we're not proposing any fill on the back side or within the buffer zone. Primarily the fill will be placed from the back of the houses running in this direction. The roadway is actually designed to sort of follow
and mimic the existing contours. So there's not a lot of fill required to build this road until you get to the culdeac where the land starts to fall off a little bit. So we're working uh the project to meet that. Uh the the
project will have a municipal sewer. We're going to bring the sewer up from a manhole which exists which actually is in front of the EMS building. We have to bring that up the middle of the road until we get to the property line here. There will be a manhole placed here and then a force man uh from E1 grinder
pumps will there will be a common line to tie into that new manhole which will be strategically located so the town can continue the sewer main in the future up middle road water will be brought to the site as well as water in middle road
there'll be hydrant two hydrants placed about 100 ft into the site and then at the end of the main here and there'll be 6 in water man brought all the way to the cold sack. Uh electric
we'll be you we'll be using overhead because their existing poles exist in and this is outside of the buffer zone but I'll mention anyway there's a pole here and there's a pole here essentially going to continue the pole lines underground from the poles to the buildings but the overhead wires will
continue on on that side all of that's outside the the jurisdiction of the conservation commission. Um, lastly, the gas line. We're going to bring gas uh I'll call it cross country to the rear of the buildings. So, basically the sewer and gas will go through the backyards to service the houses because
it'll be easier to do it that way. Um, so we did get a BP file number issued without any comments. Uh, that was issued back on March 18th. The project was sent to me engineers land surveyors
for peer review for both planning board and conservation commission. Um we we received a peer review one. We responded to all the comments. We had nice uh it was really nice working with them. I'll say that because we had a conversation. We could go through all the items so
that we knew um what we needed and where we're going. So if there was any doubt, we clarified it within that one phone call. It took less than an hour. So we addressed all of their comments. Peer review two report came out on April 27th basically giving us a clear a clean bill
of health from a storm water from a conservation standpoint. Um the only comments that are were left maybe to them un maybe unclear is that you know they said we needed to get sewer water from the
sewer water approvals. U we do have that we have the select are the sewer commissioners and the water commissioners in this town and they voted at one of their meetings about three weeks ago to approve the water connection to the system and uh it was
the water was pending that two hydrants be placed. We had one originally we sort of got a a zigzag on the hydrant. We originally had the hydro at the end of the main fire chief looked at and said the nearest hydrant the middle road is too far away for that run to it. So I
want on the third unit here. We then made a revision and moved it over to here. Then the water department wasn't happy after that because they want at the end of the lane so they could blow it out. And in order to satisfy both parties, we added a second hydrant for the chief so that he gets his hydrant
within the 500 foot length from the last, you know, nearest hydrant and then added the second hydrant. So we got everything covered in that fashion. So So we have sewer, we have water approvals, we have peer review approval and uh No comments from the So with that
said, I'd be happy to answer any questions. >> So, um, just so you guys know, uh, this one came in front of us. Uh, I don't think Julie Yeah, Julie, you were here right when that first came across. Yeah. Okay. So, I had, uh, had trying to figure out the billing on this one. This
one here was a tough one because we have pay scales and everything else. So, I went just called the D, went over the whole thing with him, and um so he really told me a lot about it. He told me what we should be charging, what it looks like. So, we're all covered there.
Um he didn't say nothing about the units themselves, where they're located. Um so, I just want you to let you know that I did talk to the DP regarding this and went over it pretty detailed so we I could figure out how to get this built. This one was a tricky one to build and
uh >> as far as the filing fees. >> Yeah. >> Yes. Uh there's the the world's protection act could use an upgrade on their >> their their formalities. Yeah. >> Their their
breakdowns are there's a lot of gray there and you know and as a as a consultant >> I do it for my clients. You know if I I think it could fall into one category versus another. I the one that's favorable and
>> the other one, >> right? And you know, they don't have anything in there. It talks about duplexes and and as far as I'm concerned, these aren't commercial buildings, but the category DP put us into was more of a commercial. >> Sure. >> Apartment building.
>> Typically, multis fall into a commercial aspect. >> True. >> But these can be sold as individual units. They could be dwelling units. Um there's some gray, but it turns out the filing fee ended up more than double and
then some. Um so they paid a hefty filing fee for uh three buildings, you know, basically majority of the buildings being in the bucket zone and that was determined by the gentleman in D. >> So and then we got the river front. >> The river this this little as well,
right? >> This little slither cost $500 >> a little. But just so everyone knows, I did it was a tough one for me to look at Joanne and all of us, right? So that's why I said, "Hey, I ain't messing around." I just sat down, called, went over the whole thing with um the
gentleman from the DP and um I hung up the phone, knowing what to pay, warm and fuzzy about the blueprint. So, >> Mr. Chairman, if I may. >> Um Mr. Mr. Deinian, the um proposed roadway, some of the utilities are going
to run down through that roadway and not the sewer or the gas. Is that correct to my understanding? Is is there a reason >> for for that? >> The there is um the the gas is is undecided whether they go
that route or not. They'll have to get a number from Eversource, but we we want it on the plan just in case. So, but the sewer they um originally what we wanted to do was essentially we have an E1 grinder pump behind every building. The
the the site does not allow us to do gravity. So, because it goes downhill that way, we want to get the flow of this. >> So, we have a force main we have a common force main line. Originally, we we proposed to run it down the sideline of the road to get it to the manhole.
The sewer commissioners uh wanted us to extend the existing uh gravity. There's a 12 in man here in the road. They wanted us to take that up the center line of the road. So, we have to tear up the road and put in a 12 in.
>> So, we have to continue the same size line for future development the north side. So, it's an it's an expensive >> very expensive endeavor. We're going to have to repave the road. Yeah, it's so we stop the sewer here to save that
extra leg from having to go all the way to here. When we have a force man, it really makes no sense for us to put uh gravity all the way up to here, the intersection of the two roads, and then run our our force main back to here. So from from an economic standpoint, just
the tie of the sewer, they're going to be charged as part of the approval $6,000 a unit, which is $72,000. >> I I understand that and I I I fully understand that. I I just feel
that we're kind of teetering on on the edge of that boundary line on that back side. >> Well, we're on the edge of this this represents existing tree line is staying. So, we're we're not touching the trees to put the utilities in, >> right? But there's there's there's the
wetlands back there. >> These are watertight pipes. There's no impact to the wetlands. >> What What kind of an impact are you going to you know, what kind of an impact going to occur back there though with with the wetlands?
I guess is my question. You're going to be in the wetlands, right? >> No, no, no, not at all. >> No, no, this No, they're outside is upland area. >> This is a buffer zone to the wetlands. Okay. This this color that I have here, >> the wetlands are just come into the
property about 20 ft in. >> You said that that represents the tree line basically. >> Correct. Above putting the erosion control around the tree. >> That line is going to come in parallel to the back of those dwellings basically. >> Correct. I would agree with you if if we were shoving that line like right along
the edge of this green. >> That was my concern. That was my number one concern. Y >> that's why I asked that question >> now that you clarified that. Thank you. >> Okay. Um anyone anything else? So entertain a motion that we close the
public hearing. Motion to close public hearing. >> Second. >> All those in favor? >> I. Okay. Then I'd like to entertain a motion that we accept the order of conditions including the special conditions that I'll be reading off of you Dave and we can get you a copy if
you like. Motion to accept special conditions and the added conditions. >> You want to read? >> I'm going to read first. Yeah. >> All right. So, uh, let me just see. I want to just make sure I get the right one. Dave, we get a couple here. Okay.
Okay, we're going to go with this one. Okay. Eros and control inspection on-site meeting with contractor within 5 days prior to construction. No stock filing of materials, no equipment stored, no refilling, no portable toilets, all wash out from concrete in the muff. A cert certificate of
compliance is request is required no later than 18 months after the issuance of an permit. If the applicant fails to comply or contact the agent, a $200 55 fine for non-compliance will be issued. >> You did the blue one, Jim, or the wheel?
>> I did the blue. >> Oh, you don't want You don't need sto. >> No, they're not working on the river or anything else. >> No, the only caveat I would put in there is that um you have 12 units.
They that 18 months probably won't work. If they build one unit, >> they're going to get an octopus permit for that. >> Correct. They'll probably get an oxy start. >> So then all they're going to do is they do it in phases. And so you can't get a you don't want to get a certificate of
compliance. Maybe perhaps after the last unit. >> Yeah. But did you hear what it says also? Contact us. So once they get their oxygen later come to us and say, "Hey, the next one ain't done on you. It still ain't done." Right. We're willing to work with anybody. All we're trying to do, Dave, is just stop people not coming
back for years. >> Yeah. >> Compance. >> Yep. Good. So, that's all I understand. >> So, um I'd like to entertain a motion that we accept the standard conditions from the DP and also the special condition that I just read off.
>> All those in favor? >> I said good. >> Okay. New business. Public hearing. RDA at Marico Elias, 151 Pebb Hill Road, map 8, lot 21. A request for determination was
filed by America Elias for property located at 151 Pebb Road, map 8, lot 21. The applicant proposes to upgrade the septic system to title five compliance including subcang pump chamber and some force main pipe within the 100 foot puff of the offsite bordering vegetated
wetland. The applicant is represented by David and Deinion of Snider Deon Lyome. The name is sewer disposal system repair plan dated April 1st 2026. Uh review of matters presented. Vote may be taken. Um I'd like to entertain a motion we open
the public hearing. Second all in favor. >> Thank you Mr. Chairman. So for the record I'm representing American bias my father-in-law and um he wants to voluntarily upgrade a
septic system and so his site is um an acre and a quarter. It's completely developed. If you walk the site, >> there's a uh kind of a overgrown vegetation over the wall, but there is a stone wall that borders two sides of the
property and uh there is a small vegetated area along the wall over here, but outside of that, it's basically all lawn area. The existing septic system consists of a septic tank which is located uh just adjacent to the pool retaining wall and the concrete pad that
goes out into this bleaching area which was installed I don't know 60 years ago or whatever it was. Um so uh the green represents a welding flag line by Brad Holmes which essentially is is off site to the west and the north. The first
green line offset from that I showed is the 50 foot line. So you can see nothing actually will happen within 50 ft of that weather line. And then the next one is the 100 foot parallel line. The leeching field is clearly way out of the buffer zone. Um that's majority of the
work. The access for that leeching field will come off the driveway right off the lawn here to the right of the garage. So all of the majority of the activity for this project is outside of the jurisdiction of conservation. The why we file the RDA is in order to
get the sewage from this side of the pool, the ingground pool to that side, we're going to put the septic tank a little further away from the house and then uh put the pump chamber adjacent to that and then just run a force man outside of the buffer zone to get to the
leashing field. The septic tank really there's nowhere else to put it anyway. I didn't want to put it right where the old tank was uh because I didn't want them to see the green covers. starting to walk out the walkway off the steps. So, I pushed through a little bit. It's all open lawn area. I don't have any
erosion control because we're essentially going to dig a a 6x12 hole and and a 5x8 hole, drop the tanks in and and essentially be back within days later. Um, and there's a wall between us
and the wetland system. This lot was when it was developed, it was it was built up. If you were to walk into the wells, you know, there's a there's a drop off on the other side of the wall and and you know to the natural grid of the wetlands and it's a pretty obvious
way when you get into it's not easy to get into. >> No, it looked pretty uh >> easy access is through here there >> through the back but so we seek a negative termination for
septic system installed. Any questions guys? >> Cotton dry. I think it's all for the collectively an improvement, right? >> Yep. And it was a volunteer one. >> No, I agree. That's the other. >> Right. >> I'd like to entertain a motion for a negative determination. Motion for a
negative determination. >> All those in favor. >> Thank you for your time. You're welcome. >> We should have kept you longer. You could fill them off. >> Yeah. >> Right. Sure. That came outside. That was good to see
him. It really was. >> Pretty good for 911. >> Yep. >> All right. I got to continue with the meeting. >> Very cool. >> Did you close that one? >> No. I'd like to motion to close that motion to close the hearing. Close the public.
>> Second. All in favor? I >> I agent updates. Agent, lady. >> Okay. 324 Main Street. So, I sent out the original letter to 324 Main Street, uh, which I told you guys about on April
1st, which was just the original letter reaching out, letting them know that they haven't started the work and, uh, to reach out to me to get this figured out. And then I sent after our meeting on April 22nd, I sent a second letter on May 5th um with just kind of the
commission's uh suggestion and agreement that they'll continue the gentleman's enforcement order under the conditions that he um plants the proper plans for the suggestion of Brad Holmes by October and that he continues to do the work on his land. And then I conducted a site
visit at 324 Main Street on 429 to just kind of ensure that work is being done and because I've never been out there before, so I wanted to see what was up with that. Um so um that's basically the update on 324 Main Street.
I also think it will be beneficial if I do like site visits there every two months or so just to continue that uh to ensure that the work keeps going. Um, so I spoke with the resident about that and they seem in agreement with that.
>> Um, the only thing I have it's uh don't he say four months away, five months away, right? >> Yeah. >> I I would go once a month. >> Once a month. Okay. >> That Yeah. >> Say hello and you know and just to keep an eye on how things are being >> right. What's the progression?
>> All right. So, if you don't mind change that to once a month, um you can send an email, give him a call and just say, you know, the commission is requesting me to do a once a month and I I'll actually accompany you if you need, you know. >> Okay. >> Perfect. >> Kind of keeps it moving,
>> right? Just to try to make sure things are going in the right direction, >> right? Because, you know, we've given this enough stagnant time. Let's let's move this on and get this taken care of. Y right a >> little late. Sorry.
>> That's all right. It's good seeing you. How are you? >> Good to see you, too. Sorry. Sorry to interrupt. >> Oh, that's right. >> Yeah, I just got caught up at work and then I'm going to be really late. >> Um, no. Everything went through. Uh, there wasn't any issues. Um, just so you

>> Sorry. That's all right. Take care. >> All right, go ahead now. >> Okay, so next is 661 Main Street. So, um, at the last meeting, the neighbor of 661 Main Street, who is from 659 Main Street, he was here, Mike, and he let us
know his concerns that his basement was getting flooded. And so I sent a letter to 661 Main Street on May 5th um letting them know what the commission said that they have 60 days to get back to me with a review from an engineer or a contract from an engineer. Uh so we know that
they're doing something to resolve this issue. And this resident actually came into the office and spoke with me. So um seems like he's going to start doing that >> to >> Yeah, seems like he's applicable. So >> awesome. That's great when that happens.
>> Yeah, it is because Yeah. This isn't And that's it for the good updates. >> All right. Um it ain't on the agenda. >> Oh, wait. Sorry, one more thing. Um so, uh the hearings and meetings will continue to be held for the month of
June at the police station. Um so they'll be here for June. >> Okay. I won't. >> We got one other one that she did a site visit this week. I'll make sure we put it on the agenda so we can discuss it. Um, it was the one about the defenses in
the duck duck pond, but since it ain't on the agenda, I'm not going to get into detail with it. >> Okay. >> Right. >> So, um, any other business issues? I don't think so. Any other business that may properly come before the commission not
reasonably anticipated when posting 48 hours prior to the meeting? Future business. The next meeting of the conservation commission will be on May 27th, 2026. meeting will be held at the police station conference room located at 64
middle road a cushion at mass and I'm going to say this one more time that our meetings will continue to be held for the month of June at the police station conference room. So before we close this under can we go back to discussion discussily
um just a quick discussion where do we stand on a laptop in a phone for our conservation agent? Um, I believe a phone is available for me now. I don't think a laptop has even been discussed. Um,
>> but >> do you want to uh just start rattling some? I'm just going to tell you something, right? A squeaky whale will get greased. >> Yeah, >> that's what I've said to you. Y >> um I I I don't think it's, you know,
improper not to ask for the the equipment to do the job. M the other thing is is I know it's not on agenda, but this is something we got in the motion, so I do want to say it while we're in a public meeting. Um we went back and we said we're no longer doing site visits on three-day weekends. It
seemed like everyone were getting so I had Joanne send out an email um stating anybody is invited to go Friday, >> Friday the 22nd. >> Yep. But if not, it'll be I'll definitely take time out and go with Julia if anybody's more than willing to
join us. I don't know if Heidi if you can. I mean, I know. Yep. So, >> what time? >> Um, same time. >> We haven't even >> Yeah. We haven't even picked the time. >> What date? >> Friday the 22nd. >> If you want, I'll give you a text the
day before and see how things are looking. >> Yeah. >> All right. Yeah. Again, that was an error. I thought I we thought we had this taken care of. But here's the thing. if we can do the Friday before if everyone's willing. Um especially these are like uh COC and they're not like
majorly not like a solo field or something. >> Yeah. >> So um All right, cool. I just don't think that we should spend this Saturday on a three. Absolutely not. >> Okay. So with that, I would entertain a motion to adjourn the public hearing. >> Motion to adjourn this public hearing.
Second. All those in favor? All right. Heat.
