Summary

Staff recommended and the commission approved a Certificate of Compliance for 65C School Street after the homeowner restored disturbed buffer plantings and provided photos and markers documenting the limit of work. The commission approved the COC without further comment.

The commission granted a Certificate of Compliance for 65C School Street after staff reported that the homeowner had remedied a landscape disturbance within a 20-foot no-touch buffer and installed native shrubs and reference photos to mark the edge of permitted work.

Staff explained the initial concern: a landscape contractor unfamiliar with the site had disturbed the buffer area. The homeowner restored the disturbed planting area, and staff memorialized the corrected edge with photos and markings so future inspections can clearly locate the allowed work area. "Now that they've rectified those outstanding issues... I am happy to recommend this one for a certificate of compliance," staff said. A motion to issue the COC was made and seconded and the commission approved it.

The commission recorded the COC and closed the item.
