Hinsdale conservation panel grants negative determination for 39 Eagle Road project
Summary
The Hinsdale Conservation Commission voted 3-0 to issue a negative determination of applicability for work at 39 Eagle Road, allowing removal and replacement of a cottage on helical piers, installation of a well and landscaping despite the site’s partial location within the 100-foot wetland buffer.
The Hinsdale Conservation Commission on May 12 granted a negative determination of applicability for proposed work at 39 Eagle Road, voting 3-0 to allow the removal of an existing cottage, replacement on helical piers, installation of a well and related landscaping.
The request for determination, for applicant Jeffrey Lynch, was noted to involve work that “partially lies within the 100 foot Buffer Zone of Bordering Vegetated Wetlands.” The commission reviewed a revised plan that showed the well, house and the existing sewer line; Boudreau had requested those details to clarify questions that arose from unconsolidated material discussed at the prior meeting.
Huntoon, a member of the Hinsdale Conservation Commission, moved for a negative determination of applicability; Litchfield, a commission member, seconded the motion. The commissioners voted 3-0 in favor of the negative determination, permitting the project to proceed under the commission’s finding. The minutes do not record any conditions attached to the determination.
Mia Giardina, the commission’s Conservation Agent, recorded the plan details and the vote in the meeting record. The commission also reviewed its prior minutes from April 14, 2026, as part of the evening’s agenda. The meeting adjourned at 7:38 PM.
