Summary

Greg Morse presented two additions at 232 Country Way that partially intrude into the 50‑ and 100‑ft buffers; commissioners asked for erosion‑control clarification, native shrub mitigation along the wetland side and relocation of the proposed stockpile; the hearing was continued to August 3 for revised plans.

The Commission continued a notice‑of‑intent hearing for proposed additions at 232 Country Way to August 3 after engineers agreed to add erosion‑control measures and mitigation plantings.

Greg Morse described two additions: a garage over an existing paved area that extends into the 50‑foot buffer and a rear addition 90 feet from the bordering vegetated wetland (BVW). Morse said no vegetation would be removed and that the limit of work is defined with erosion control. Commissioners asked the applicant to extend erosion controls along the addition where appropriate, move a temporary stockpile outside the 50‑ft buffer and add a few native shrubs on the wetland side to mitigate the impervious reduction.

Commissioner Penny asked for the erosion control barrier to encompass the full addition and to relocate the stockpile. The applicant agreed to accommodate shrubs and to revise the plans; the Commission continued the hearing to August 3 so members could review the revisions and finalize conditions.

Next steps: applicant to submit revised plans (updated erosion‑control extent, stockpile location and native shrub mitigation) for review prior to the August 3 meeting.
