Summary

Commission accepted application CC‑25‑06 for a small deck in the regulated area at 26 South Bridge Court and voted the proposal non‑significant for inland wetlands review; full determination will be resolved at the commission’s next meeting.

The Simsbury Inland Wetlands Commission accepted application CC‑25‑06, filed by owner Lynn Bossart with applicant James Mattingly, for a 16‑foot by 9‑foot deck within regulated wetland soils at 26 South Bridge Court and made a preliminary determination that the proposal is not significant under the inland wetlands regulations.

Planning staff described the proposal and the site’s regulatory history, noting the house and lot were constructed in the late 1980s and that the applicant proposes three helical piers to carry the deck posts and temporary silt fencing for erosion control. A staff member recommended the commission treat the proposal as non‑significant. A motion to accept the application and designate it non‑significant carried with an affirmative vote; commissioners set the application for final resolution at the next scheduled meeting.

What the record shows: the application was accepted for receipt, the commission made a non‑significant determination (preliminary), and the item will return to the commission for final action. No fines, permits or construction approvals were granted at this meeting.
