Commission approves ADU conversion and septic plan at 222 Tulcutt Notch Road
Summary
The commission approved conversion of a pool house to a one‑bedroom accessory dwelling unit at 222 Tulcutt Notch Road and accepted a Farmington Valley Health District‑approved gravity septic design with standard erosion‑control stipulations and tree preservation.
The commission approved an application to convert an existing pool house to a one‑bedroom accessory dwelling unit at 222 Tulcutt Notch Road and accepted a gravity septic system design approved by the Farmington Valley Health District.
Engineer Dave Whitney, representing the owner, described the project as approximately 5,000 square feet of disturbance and noted the septic design is a gravity system located within the upland review area; the plan includes standard erosion and sediment controls (double rows of silt fence and silt sock), a topsoil temporary stockpile location, and preservation of three large trees. "The plan you're looking at right now is the plan that was approved by Farmington Valley Health District, and that's the plan we would like to have approved by your commission," Whitney said.
Commissioners found the activity nonsignificant and moved to approve the plan with standard stipulations and coordination with town staff; the motion carried.
