00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:38.879
perfect. >> Okay. Uh do we have any additional public input on this for this topic on 553 and 554? 553 and 543 Central Street. She might be here for the other topic. Okay. hearing.

So >> okay, let's do that again, shall we? Make a motion to approve the application for 53 >> and 543 C. No, this is going to take

13
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:48.560
another 20 minutes, folks. Sorry. Uh Center Street uh with the following conditions. I might as well read them out because we have them. Uh the per section 3435 uh granting special permit here under the planning board shall require a performance bond to ensure compliance

14
00:03:48.560 --> 00:04:04.640
with the requirements of the section. That's condition number one. Uh condition number two, construction will comply with uh time and construction restrictions to limited noise. Project will be subject to orders of conditions which requires a construction period.

15
00:04:04.640 --> 00:04:22.720
pollution control which addresses dust control. And uh next is from 36 section 3640 restoration. Um oh correction uh 3650 which is the bond uh and uh that was a

16
00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:37.600
condition that Western and Samson recommended that we include a performance bond as a condition of the approval. And all the way down the bottom number four was the per Massachusetts stormwater

17
00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:54.320
handbook standard 10. Uh the engineer has included a copy of the standard 10 statement unsigned and the storm water report. >> I have it here if you want. >> Uh is it something we can take this evening? >> You can. >> Okay. Uh in that case that condition is stricken. So we have the three

18
00:04:54.320 --> 00:05:11.759
conditions previously read. So would somebody can make can somebody make a motion to approve this application? discussion. >> Uh yeah, we make a motion and end discussion. Yes. >> Okay. You need the motion to have discussion. >> Normally yes.

19
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:28.720
>> I make a motion. We have discussion. >> Yes. >> Thank you. Um so I think the only thing that brought >> make a motion to approve and then it's open for discussion. >> Will you discuss before you approve? No. >> Yes.

20
00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:44.960
You make a mo. Yes. Make a motion to approve. Yeah. And then you guys >> discussate >> deliberate and then and then once we're done deliberating then we can take it to >> take. >> This is getting pretty >> but by all means would somebody like to make that motion?

21
00:05:44.960 --> 00:06:01.759
>> I'll make the motion. >> Any discussion? >> Yes. >> Excellent. Go for it. Um just one point. I don't know that it has been brought up early on. I don't think we really hours of operation. Um this is mixed

22
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:17.440
use, but it is in a residential neighborhood. So I just think it should be spelled out whatever we agree upon for what that should be. >> Yep. So uh on our normal boiler boiler plate uh conditions uh on

23
00:06:17.440 --> 00:06:32.800
any decision we we normally have >> hours of operation. Do we have to explicitly state those or is that part of >> the standard is six to six. >> Okay. So that's going to be part of the decision regardless of whether or not we state it out loud here. So it will be in the language in the decision.

24
00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:49.440
>> Correct. >> Unless um the board determines a facility needs those hours different. The standard is 6 to 6. >> Okay. Standard is 6 to 6. >> Mhm. >> Okay. That's

25
00:06:49.440 --> 00:07:04.639
>> Sundays Monday. Monday through Saturday, not Sundays. >> And then they follow the the holidays as well. >> You do it on Saturdays. It's Yeah, >> they can work on Saturdays. >> Would you hear operating hours? Not

26
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:21.919
construction. You're talking about >> that's construction. >> Construction. >> I was talking about operating hours. >> The actual operating >> operating hours given that it's mixed use, but in a residential neighborhood. I see. Do we have any conditions around operating hours? That's set by the board. Excuse me.

27
00:07:21.919 --> 00:07:43.199
>> You might want to deliberate on that part. >> Oh, I got you now. Okay. I I I was under the impression you're talking about during construction phase. >> Okay. >> Okay. I think you had talked about given the nature of the the contractor they might

28
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:59.039
be in at like 5 a.m. for residential neighborhoods. So that seemed a little bit early. So I'm not sure that I have a proposal. I just wanted to bring it up and spell it out. Okay. >> Whatever we agree upon. So

29
00:07:59.039 --> 00:08:14.800
>> Well, what's the applicant have in mind? >> We have no idea. >> Okay. We don't know yet. >> He lives there and we own all the properties. >> I got a guy that wants a sign shop. He might take a bay, you know, and he runs out and puts signs up and stuff >> and that wouldn't be 5 in the morning.

30
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:32.320
>> I only know what he's probably standard business hours like any other working person, you know, between 6:00 and 8 to take off and start work. >> We can look at the >> I think Saturdays would probably be better to do like >> 8:00 or 7:00 in the morning instead of

31
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:47.760
6, >> you know? I think that would be fair. >> And 6:00 am weekdays. >> No, 7 a.m. on S on Saturday. >> On Saturdays, on Monday through Friday. >> Yeah, I think six is probably good. Everybody has to wake up. >> Yeah. >> Early.

32
00:08:47.760 --> 00:09:04.800
>> It It's sounding a lot like this. The same hours as construction. >> Yes. >> Except that I don't I don't think 6 p.m. is reasonable to have to wrap up. >> I got to be there. I we've never done that before done this before. So, this is all Yeah.

33
00:09:04.800 --> 00:09:22.800
>> brand new for for us having a condition. >> I would say something like weekdays 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. upper hours of operation. >> 8:00 p.m. Okay, fine by me. >> Okay. And then >> I think that's late, but

34
00:09:22.800 --> 00:09:39.519
>> Well, I mean, we could move it a little early, you know, >> I think six to six is a good idea. Yeah. 6 to 6 and then what would you say? 7 on >> 7 on Saturdays >> to 5. >> Right. But this this is operation. This is not construction. So if they're going

35
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:55.839
to be coming and going and putting working vehicles back in the evening, you think 6 p.m. is reasonable? >> I I don't know. No, I >> I I you know what it's going to say contractor getting stuff and going to Boston to get stuck in traffic. Don't

36
00:09:55.839 --> 00:10:12.080
leave it at noon to get home to put your stuff away. >> Yeah. >> Keep it 6 to 6 and that's it. That's the way I feel. >> All of it. All all the way through. >> Okay. So, it's the same. >> You guys okay with that? >> What's the town bylaw?

37
00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:27.920
>> Six to six. >> No, that's >> that's for that's for construction. >> For construction. What is that? >> There is no bylaw for for town working. I looked it up. There is absolutely none. So, >> yeah. This is this is how they do that. This is this is unprecedented. So I don't >> tell my letter is absolutely none.

38
00:10:27.920 --> 00:10:44.560
>> So business hours. >> It's only a suggestion. >> Yeah. I would say a little bit later in the evening like >> what's what's that's why I was asking you. >> Yeah. 6:00 in the morning I think sounds great but the evening I was thinking more like 7 just because we don't even know who's going to. >> That's why I think 8:00 p.m. is

39
00:10:44.560 --> 00:10:59.279
reasonable. >> Yeah. I think 8 is very reasonable. >> Okay. So, let's say 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. every day, >> which it could end up being 5 or 6, but that one time that it's 8, I don't want to like get >> Saturday as well. >> Who's going to believe it,

40
00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:15.040
>> right? >> True. >> I don't see any my >> We do own a lot of the land all around it where most >> But that but that makes sense because it's mixed use. We want to make sure that, you know, >> if the property turns over, it's it makes sense for all the people who are living around it.

41
00:11:15.040 --> 00:11:30.880
>> It's fine with me. I've been that guy coming home from Boston, so I know what that >> Yeah, me too. So do I. I mean, I get home at 600, 7 o'clock at night some days, you know, >> Okay. Okay. So with the good >> just like us, you know, coming. So

42
00:11:30.880 --> 00:11:47.440
>> Okay. So we have to uh revote with the additional condition or re have an additional motion. >> Uh somebody want to make a motion, I guess, before we take it again. Are there any other discussions on this? anything we think any other restrictions that we're concerned with before we move

43
00:11:47.440 --> 00:12:02.640
forward? >> No. >> Yeah, I think I I couldn't tell if somebody else connected there. There might be there is a third person that connected or second person. >> Um, all right. And uh in that case, uh can somebody please make a motion to approve the application for 553 and 543

44
00:12:02.640 --> 00:12:18.720
Center Street with the affformentioned uh conditions with the additional condition for hours of operation uh for 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. >> Monday through Saturday? >> So move second. >> And on Sunday, you want to add Sunday as well?

45
00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:34.639
>> Well, some hours on Sunday, it doesn't have to be same. >> We could just keep it the same. >> Keep it the same. Yeah. So, uh, hours of 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., seven days a week. >> Okay. >> Somebody make make that motion.

46
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:48.959

51
00:14:11.680 --> 00:14:28.399
town hall 979 Somerset Avenue, lower level Don Dyton on the petition of Antonio P. Rodri for the approval of a two lot subdivision definitive subdivision entitled Hart's memory located at 728 Hart Street Dyon showed

52
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:42.639
as uh shown as Diton Assessor's map 20 lot 100 tech 1. The proposed two lot subdivision is located in a residential agricultural district. Copies of the application and plan may be requested by

55
00:15:17.839 --> 00:15:34.079
>> I. >> Thanks a lot. All right. Good evening. >> Okay. Good evening. Uh Tom Morris with Zenith Consulting Engineers. Um so just to show you quickly what is existing. Um there's an old barn that's been

56
00:15:34.079 --> 00:15:53.199
rehabbed since um everything's taken place here, but this was an original structure to the property. Um, and three houses have been formade out and constructed. Um, now we have a 45 ft strip here. Um,

57
00:15:53.199 --> 00:16:22.000
that's going to be the access to the two lot subdivision in the field. So, there is an existing gravel driveway coming off Heart Park Street um back behind the two houses. It ends right about here. Um we're proposing to extend

58
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:38.800
that gravel through a new rideway to create frontage for the two lots. Um and then each of these houses will have a paved driveway in front of the uh garage. We're collecting everything from the

59
00:16:38.800 --> 00:16:56.160
existing and proposed gravel area and quite a bit of area from the lawns, driveways, roofs of a couple of the form A lots as well. Uh putting it into a constructed storm water wetland which is a drainage basin design with quite a bit

60
00:16:56.160 --> 00:17:13.919
of uh nutrient removal from the runoff. Um very high standard of treatment. Um, this has been >> it it will be reviewed obviously by

61
00:17:13.919 --> 00:17:30.480
Western Samson for storm water. >> Um, but it's been designed to meet state and local requirements. It exceeds most of them actually. Um, showing that the rate and treatment of the water

62
00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:48.960
pre-development is not exceeded in the post-development. um one lot, this lot here on the south side will have or it's really the east side will have town water and that's why this is a smaller lot. Um, and then to meet

63
00:17:48.960 --> 00:18:06.240
zoning, we have a larger lot here for a house that will use an existing well uh that's back in the wetlands which needs to be doing that water service and then obviously the work for the houses and everything in the buffer is going to require a notice of intent.

64
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:27.520
Um, we have an erosion control plan set up a construction entrance and silk fence, silk sock that will go around the property to protect the wetlands and the street.

65
00:18:27.520 --> 00:18:44.240
Um we have a T turnaround shown here that a fire truck can turn around uh within the rightway. The basin will have a permanent pool of water. So we've uh proposed a fence which is something that we've done in

66
00:18:44.240 --> 00:19:03.120
town um for Don Don Eman's property. It's the same type of basin, same kind of construction specifications and the fence around Is that >> And uh that's that's essentially it and

67
00:19:03.120 --> 00:19:20.400
I'd love to answer any questions you have. >> Okay. >> All right. I know I I did an initial review of this myself and uh I didn't have any outstanding questions. Um so it's just the two lots and you said one of those

68
00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:37.039
is going to be on town water. >> Yes. >> Okay. So the one on the out on the street there. >> Okay. Is there a reason why both can't be on that or is it just you don't have the run back there right now? >> Yeah, it's just there's only one existing tap off the main.

69
00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:53.280
>> Got it. Okay. >> And we have the existing well back there. Okay. >> We wanted to be able to use that. >> So, we divided split the difference. >> And the town is allowing it to be ti to tie in. >> Well, we still have to go through the NOI process to get that approved because the water service will be run through

70
00:19:53.280 --> 00:20:10.919
the wetland. >> Yeah. We're not talking about the the well. We're talking about the tie into town water. >> Oh, >> it's a water moratorium. >> Yeah. I mean, the tap is already there. It's already there's already a service tied in. >> Okay. Okay. Gotcha.

71
00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:29.760
>> How long of a road is that? >> Um, it is 384 if you go all the way to the end of the culde-sac. So that's actually So we have I believe there's 20 waiverss requested here. Um

72
00:20:29.760 --> 00:20:45.840
that's one of them. There's a a minimum length for a dead end road in Dyton which I I think Dyon's the only town I've ever seen that in. Um and it's 400 ft and we're a little bit under that. And if we extended it to be 400

73
00:20:45.840 --> 00:21:05.200
ft, um it would make construction on the lot a lot more difficult because it pushed that house back. But several of the the waiverss requested are based on the drainage requirements for a basin, the

74
00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:23.919
construction of the basin. Um, and they all kind of go against just the specific type of basin that we're proposing. >> And I know you said the field is mostly cleared, but what do you think is going to do you think the total land disturbance is going to be greater than

75
00:21:23.919 --> 00:21:40.559
an acre? >> I believe it's not. It's not. Um, but there's there's no clearing that is happening. >> All of the construction is in the cleared field. No, just if you exceed an acre, you'll have to get a storm water permit from the storm water committee. But if you're under that, then it's just

76
00:21:40.559 --> 00:21:57.000
>> Well, overall it's going to be over one acre >> disturbed land, >> right? It would be over an acre. I don't think it is, but I I'd have to double check. I think >> for both lots. It's not. >> No. Yeah,

77
00:21:57.280 --> 00:22:14.320
because this lot is only I think 30,000 ft is what's required. 35 >> 35 >> and I mean we're only touching half of that. So I mean it's it's probably really close, but I believe it was under. >> Okay. Just something to keep in mind.

78
00:22:14.320 --> 00:22:29.120
Yeah. >> I mean we have storm water oversight here, but if it exceeds an acre, you're going to have to talk to the storm committee as well. >> Yeah. So, just to speak to that with um Eman's

79
00:22:29.120 --> 00:22:44.720
property, we were over the acre with that. He had done two identical buildings um separate filings. >> Yeah. the lower one. Um, we went through a process where we

80
00:22:44.720 --> 00:23:00.000
had to go to the storm water committee and they approved it. >> Mhm. >> And we kind of through the process um the town determined that they weren't a permitting board. They they could have

81
00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:16.000
comment like they'd get a copy of the the site plan and they can comment on it. They're more of an uh an oversight and if there's something goes wrong a like during construction or after

82
00:23:16.000 --> 00:23:32.720
construction they would step in. >> It depends upon how it affects the town system and drainage. So they do actually at a state and even federal level do have a permitting authority. >> You'd have to talk to the board. It

83
00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:49.600
sounds like it may be under that anyway, but there may be some trigger that you just want to stay aware of, but >> sure. >> Doesn't trigger a review by then as well. So, >> and I know they use Wesson and Samson as well. So, it would be >> it would be the same review. >> Yeah.

84
00:23:49.600 --> 00:24:04.480
>> Can I just add a comment? >> So, when we do the application process though, when we receive an application and they know right away that they're going to be disturbing more than an acre, the the authority to issue the

85
00:24:04.480 --> 00:24:20.159
storm water permit depends on the on the um zoning of the property. So residential agricultural that would be the conservation commission. If it's industrial or business, it's under the the planning board is the issuing

86
00:24:20.159 --> 00:24:34.960
authority. So it would be part of this permit here. >> There there is a state permit that can be required if you hit the right trigger. Yep. >> That only the storm water committee can issue. >> Right. >> I just want to make them aware of it. That's all I'm saying.

87
00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:50.480
>> So the federal is the nifty's permit >> and that's completely separate from the town. They don't have any >> No. But >> yeah, >> that's fine. I just bringing it up. >> Yeah. >> Just to make you aware and sensitive to

88
00:24:50.480 --> 00:25:07.520
it. That's all. >> And don't blame us afterwards. Any other questions, Joe? >> No, I don't wish Chris. >> Okay, Chris, >> I mean, we're not voting to approve this

89
00:25:07.520 --> 00:25:23.760
today, are we? >> Yeah, it still has to go up to >> Not that I'm aware of. >> So, >> it's Well, it it's it's we're at the situation where this is the initial uh presentation. Uh Western and Samson still has to go through the application, provide uh their engineering report to

90
00:25:23.760 --> 00:25:39.440
us. Mhm. >> Uh and then we go through it. So that that whole process is was started as of yesterday. >> Yes. >> Um so this is the just the initial presentation. >> Yeah. >> No questions. >> So I I uh I I don't have any questions, but I do have some things I want to read

91
00:25:39.440 --> 00:25:53.919
in the record uh that we got from other departments here. One was you've already mentioned uh the uh entanglements with the uh conservation commission. And so there's an email from uh Lisa Calonia

92
00:25:53.919 --> 00:26:11.279
that came this afternoon. Uh so good afternoon Carrie. A portion of this work does fall within the conservation commission's jurisdiction and requires a commission's approval. It will be uh it should be noted uh the conservation commission has yet to receive a notice of intent application for this project.

93
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:26.960
Thank you, Lisa. So you you were aware of that. Anyway, >> yeah, you did mention that earlier. What we like to do usually is get our first engineering view out of the way before we go to conservation just so there's no major changes beyond that point. >> Understand? Yeah, that's a that's a good idea. We should write that down.

94
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:48.960
>> It's almost like we should have a flowchart. >> All right. Um, other item here from the health agent, uh, Elizabeth Morera. Is that how you say her name? Mhm. >> It's very fancy script. It's hard to read. Uh

95
00:26:48.960 --> 00:27:06.159
oh, actually this was an email to Elizabeth from Jerry Bernard. >> Yes. >> Here it is. Uh so he perked lots four and five. These are the two that you're adding here, right? >> Yes. >> Uh last year with Zenith for Tony Rodri's, uh perk rates were fine as long

96
00:27:06.159 --> 00:27:21.919
as they meet Titan zoning requirements, and looks like they did. and get the thumbs up in the conservation parenthesis. They should um we will review the septic system designs uh when they get submitted. And I think there was also something from the fire chief.

97
00:27:21.919 --> 00:27:39.120
Yes. >> Uh sewer >> sewer. >> Sewer. >> Oh, there it is. Diana Curtis. >> Yeah. >> Department manager. She's the department manager with the Dyson sewer department. Hi, Carrie. There there is no public sewer in this area. >> I mean, it's it's important. It's just

98
00:27:39.120 --> 00:27:54.799
>> Yes. >> very to the point. Um those are all the only items I think we had. So I think I'm getting this mixed up with another application with the >> Okay. Um right. And so at this time if there's no other questions from the uh members of the board, uh I'd like to

99
00:27:54.799 --> 00:28:11.360
open it up to any public comment on this project. We could start off with uh folks in the room. If you're going to make a comment on this project, I ask you to step up to the location where there might be a microphone, but there isn't one. Um, you can move the podium

100
00:28:11.360 --> 00:28:28.000
back over if you can state your name and address and uh kindly direct all your questions towards us and we can interact with the applicant if necessary. Anybody in the room at the time that would like to step up? >> No, I just have a general question. It's not >> Okay. Uh,

101
00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:43.360
>> you want me to step up? >> Oh, you we can hear you fine. Just the name and address, please. >> Between the two. >> Please, please state your name and address, sir. >> What's your name and address? >> Alfred Far 734. >> Thank you. >> Hot street. >> Thank you. >> Just add the driveway in between his and

102
00:28:43.360 --> 00:28:59.840
mine. That's not going to be any wider. It's just going to the two fences are just going to stay there. Okay. Simple question. That's all. >> Okay. Anything else, sir? >> No, that's it for me. >> Thank you very much. Uh on the phone, we had two people. Somebody dropped off iPhone 2. Uh, are you here to comment on

103
00:28:59.840 --> 00:29:19.120
this project? >> Nothing here. Okay. All right. So, uh, no additional public comment at this point. So, do you have any questions for us as we move forward here? >> Um, I guess the only thing would be I don't know if you guys have reviewed the waiver requests.

104
00:29:19.120 --> 00:29:36.240
>> I I did see the list and I wanted to Nothing shocked me. >> Okay. Um, but I I I want to wait for Weston and Samson to go through that so I can make better informed comments on how we want how we want to move forward with those. Right. >> Um, I know I knew we have them on on the

105
00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:52.559
list here. I did see you said there's about 20 of them. >> Yeah, they're on the cover sheet. >> They're on the cover sheet. >> All listed on there. >> So, I just didn't know if you had if anyone had any concerns about any of the waiver requests. >> Let me take a peek here real quick. Just >> obviously the the drainage ones are more

106
00:29:52.559 --> 00:30:18.159
Weston Samson's Field, >> right? Yeah. There there was a list of things uh specifically for that uh storm water uh basin. Some of them are drawing related datam for the requirement for an engineer's

107
00:30:18.159 --> 00:30:35.760
estimated materials. That's number two. Number three for proposed right away to be rounded or cut back. I would imagine that's probably going to get number three is probably not going to fly. >> Uh to wave the requirement for the proposed rideway to be rounded or cut

108
00:30:35.760 --> 00:30:53.279
back provide for curb radius not less than 25 ft. I don't know if that one might be that one might be an issue. Um number four 4251 a laen street that is less than 40 ft long. Um so I want to look into that

109
00:30:53.279 --> 00:31:12.000
like why why do we have a minimum I put a made a note to myself here to see why we have that we're always making tweaks so I want to see if there's a reason there there's got to be a historical reason for that. So I want to make sure that makes sense. Um so I don't see any concerns there.

110
00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:29.200
I'm not I'm not giving you the okay now. I'm just giving you the feeling as as we look through these to see if there's any gotchas. >> Understood. >> Yep. Uh number five 4253 unconventional turnaround. No issues. 4261 uh roadway with a center line that does

111
00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:45.360
not coincide with the rightway center line. Uh I think >> that's just because the existing driveway is offset from the property line center line. >> Got it. Okay. All right. Yeah. So that's just how the thing is laid out. Uh 4268 is number seven. Allow gravel surface.

112
00:31:45.360 --> 00:32:01.039
Letter from the fire chief indicates the proposed roadway turnaround are acceptable acceptable for emergency vehicle access. I thought I saw an email from the fire chief on that. >> Yeah, I think it it was a while ago. >> It was a while ago. It was a couple months ago. >> I'm sorry. I'll make sure it's

113
00:32:01.039 --> 00:32:17.600
>> because I I I remember I remember seeing something specifically about the gravel surface, but uh especially if it's >> We asked him about that and the the shape of the turnaround. >> Okay. So, if if he's on board with it, then we're going to defer to him uh because he's he's got to get his uh

114
00:32:17.600 --> 00:32:33.120
vehicle in there. Um apparatus uh 40 oh 42 71 4T shoulders less than 4T shoulders existing driveway is buted by a split

115
00:32:33.120 --> 00:32:48.880
rail fencing and a shallow swale by two feet portion of the edge of a proposed driveway. Why is that? Why is that necessary? >> Number eight. Yeah, it's just where the existing gravel and where the the

116
00:32:48.880 --> 00:33:04.960
existing fence are. There's not a full 4ft shoulder there. >> Got it. Okay. Less than four. I get it now. Okay. Because of the buffer. Um we're at number nine. Almost there. And these are the drainage basin items. So I'm going to defer to Weston and Samson

117
00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:22.559
on that. So >> yeah, number six or seven. Number 10 is a drainage basin item. Number 11, same thing. 12, same thing. 13 basin. 14 basin.

118
00:33:22.559 --> 00:33:39.039
15 is another basin item. 16 is a first is another basin. Um, allow 3 to1 material slope from the basin. 6 to1 is required. I'm curious how they're going to come back with that one because that may may be a problem. U, but you're

119
00:33:39.039 --> 00:33:53.919
doing that because of limited space. Yeah. And 3:1 is standard construction. And these are all >> the same. Obviously, it's a different project, so I understand it doesn't mean we get it here. >> Yep. >> But these are all the same things that were granted for Eman's property.

120
00:33:53.919 --> 00:34:10.560
>> Okay. Uh wave the requirement for a sidewalk along the proposed street. Um once I think about that one, next one, number 18, requirement for street trees. Uh that's going to be a tree warden question. So Mr. Ferry will have to

121
00:34:10.560 --> 00:34:28.000
chime in on that one. Uh 19 is for curbing along the road waving that requirement and 20 is require requirement for iron rods at two major rear corners. Uh we I know for a fact we've we've denied requests for waving number 20.

122
00:34:28.000 --> 00:34:44.879
>> Yeah. And we can make it happen. Okay. >> If it's required, but I just asked for that because most of the rear corners for these lots are way back in the wetland. >> Okay. So, I don't think anyone would see like a if it's for the homeowner's purpose of being able to see where their property is, they'll probably never see

123
00:34:44.879 --> 00:35:02.160
them. >> Got it. Okay. All right. So, we can we can discuss that. Good. All right. Um All right. So, I think we're good for now, but uh we're going to go ahead and continue this. Uh when do we think we can get this? I

124
00:35:02.160 --> 00:35:17.839
don't think we can do this in two weeks from today on the 15th. Well, Weston and Sam Simpson needs >> started their review yesterday. >> Okay. >> So, the question would be I think you

125
00:35:17.839 --> 00:35:33.839
know two weeks they're usually around the two week mark. >> Yeah. It depends. >> So, they do the two weeks if we do continue to two weeks you won't have ample time to respond. >> So, the question is do you want to >> make it six May? >> Yeah.

126
00:35:33.839 --> 00:35:49.680
>> 6 May. >> That probably makes more sense. >> Okay. All right. Keep in mind we do have our bylaw um public care and that too, >> right? Yeah. >> Those are usually >> Yeah, if we need we can rent out a hall. But >> yeah, we can

127
00:35:49.680 --> 00:36:07.200
>> we can rent out a hall. >> Oh, we can do that. >> Yeah, no problem. >> Nobody comes to those. >> No. >> Um, >> no. But >> it's a pay-per-view event. You got to let the people in. >> Yeah. >> Um, okay. So, let's let's go from May 6.

128
00:36:07.200 --> 00:36:23.359
So, uh I'm going to make a motion to continue this public hearing to Wednesday uh May 6th. >> I'll make that motion. >> I'll second. >> Motion made and seconded. Any discussion? Uh hearing none. All in favor? >> I >> Okay. Thank you. See you May 6th.

129
00:36:23.359 --> 00:37:02.960
>> Thank you. >> All right. Um, >> I'll be on the text. >> Yeah, good deal. >> Thank you, gentlemen. Have a good night. All right, next item on the agenda. It's me on the chopping block. Uh 2026 is to

130
00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:18.320
review act and discuss a 2026 2027 SERed commission member appointment. Um I'm putting my name in the hat to represent the planning board and the board of

131
00:37:18.320 --> 00:37:33.760
selectmen for another calendar year. Uh so uh if you guys are agreeable to that. >> Absolutely. >> I am. >> Uh make a motion to appoint me as the commission member on behalf of the planning board. >> I'll make that motion.

132
00:37:33.760 --> 00:37:49.440
>> I will second. >> Um I don't know if I accept the nomination. >> Oh, if you vote it. That's a fact. It is what it is. >> You get appointed. You don't get to choose. >> You put your name on the hat. So there you go. >> Now he says no.

133
00:37:49.440 --> 00:38:07.200
>> Yeah. Wait, too late now. Um, so, uh, motion made, second. All in favor? >> I, >> I. >> That three eyes. I guess I can say I can vote for myself. That's four eyes. Uh, thank you. And, uh, I look forward to serving for another year. >> All right. >> Thank you.

134
00:38:07.200 --> 00:38:23.200
>> Next item of the agenda and uh, is to is the approval of the meeting minutes for March 8th, 18th, 2026. Can somebody please make that motion? >> I'll make that motion. >> All in favor? I and Carrie, do we have any further correspondence?

135
00:38:23.200 --> 00:39:16.160
>> No. >> And any other input? iPhone number two, did you at this time want the floor for any comments or any questions? Why would anybody be on Zoom and not >> Well, we had a gentleman who was in a

136
00:39:16.160 --> 00:39:40.000
better who just wanted to hear. >> Oh, maybe >> what it was. >> Yeah, we don't have the on on air off air light. This doesn't matter for on. So >> I got confused because you said discussion. Discussions happen after motions are made. >> Okay.

137
00:39:40.000 --> 00:39:44.359
>> We could have we could have actually resended
