Summary

The commission granted administrative approval for an Amazon facility enclosure at 1248 Sherman Turnpike and received updates on enforcement: a notice of violation for a dredged pond at 196–200 Franklin Street and additional pending enforcement matters.

The Environmental Impact Commission approved an administrative application for a screening/enclosure at the Amazon facility on Sherman Turnpike and received staff updates on several enforcement matters.

Staff described the administrative approval (regulated activity 1240) for a 30-by-60-foot enclosure that will house vehicle-inspection cameras and sensors at the Amazon site; the commission approved the administrative action by voice vote.

Staff also briefed the commission on a notice of violation for 196–200 Franklin Street, where a pond had been dredged without permits. City attorneys are reviewing proposals from an engineer and an attorney representing the property owner; staff said additional violations in other areas (Myrie Brook Road and the Sayers property) have been forwarded to legal counsel.

Next steps: staff to finalize the administrative approval record for the Amazon site and to continue coordination with counsel and engineers on enforcement matters.
