During the same meeting at Wickham Hall, a planning-board member reported observing Arlington paving trucks operating at the edge of a wetland on Base Hill Road and asked that the town’s code-enforcement officer look into the activity.
"Went by Base Hill Road, and the Arlington paving trucks are backed up to the wetland," the board member said, noting concern about wash-off from equipment after a day's work. Board members suggested that the code-enforcement officer inspect the site and that the Conservation Commission monitor any impacts.
Board members clarified this was an enforcement issue, not a zoning change, and said the conservation group lacks enforcement authority; they asked staff to add a follow-up to the commission’s and code-enforcement officer’s tasks list.
No formal action was taken beyond the request that code enforcement investigate and report back.
