Commission issues multiple orders of conditions, including riverfront and residential projects
The Falmouth Conservation Commission on Nov. 21 voted to issue orders of conditions for multiple properties after staff presentations and brief deliberations.

Actions taken (selected):
• Albert Gabrielli, 93 BB Acres Road (riverfront addition and relocated deck): motion to issue an order of conditions passed; staff cited invasive cover and roughly 7,000 sq ft of riverfront considerations and recommended site measures.

• Sue & Eric Murray, 76 Menaut Road (raze/rebuild): commissioners issued an order of conditions; staff noted septic and zoning lot‑coverage issues and required standard conditions including dewatering precautions as needed.

• Jonathan & Annie Burley, 60 Carrie Lane (raise/rebuild): an order of conditions was issued for a project barely within jurisdiction, with minor labeling revisions requested.

• Terrence & Margaret Forster, 37 Buckles Road (invasive removal): commission approved an order of conditions allowing beach burning of removed material but required a fire permit and time‑of‑year restrictions and reduced container size for plantings to 2 gallons where specified.

• Michael Smith & Yvonne Chung, 4 Whittemore Ave (addition over garage): an order was approved that requires restoration of previously cleared buffer areas and removal of enclosed paneling in V‑zone; staff will confirm compliance on site before signing the building permit.

• Frank Sciacca, 96 Waterside Drive (deck extension): an order of conditions was approved with monitoring and restoration required because prior mitigation had been removed and later reinstalled under enforcement.

• Dale K. Weldon Revocable Trust, 129 Raising Beach Ave (deck/migration): commissioners issued an order of conditions with plan revisions to be coordinated in the field for tree placement.

Each item passed by voice motion followed by roll‑call affirmations where present. Several approvals included conditions requiring restoration before building permit signoff, monitoring/reporting, or site visits by staff.

Next steps: staff will document the conditions, undertake required site visits and follow up on restoration and enforcement items prior to building‑permit signoffs.
