Middlefield agency approves driveway permit near wetlands with erosion controls
Summary
The Middlefield Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency approved IWA 1201-25, permitting a driveway installation within 100 feet of wetlands, with conditions requiring advance notification to the enforcement officer and sedimentation and erosion controls.
The Middlefield Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency on March 18 approved IWA 1201-25, a permit for a driveway installation within 100 feet of wetlands associated with an applicant identified in the transcript as Justin Rodger. The permit was approved with two conditions: the Middlefield wetlands enforcement officer must be notified before construction begins, and all activities must have appropriate sedimentation and erosion controls in place.
Rich Uznanski moved to approve the permit; Nancy Senick seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. Chair Rebecca Adams and other commissioners were present for the vote.
The conditions are intended to limit runoff and protect adjacent wetland areas during construction. The commission did not record additional mitigation measures beyond the two conditions; the enforcement officer will be the point of contact for compliance.
The meeting packet included the item under IWA 1201-25 for Cherry Hill Road. The commission also approved an agenda amendment earlier in the meeting changing an address on the agenda to 138 Cedar Street.
The agency closed consideration of the permit following the unanimous vote; no public comment on this item was recorded.
