Commission recommends approval for Saragas Trust shoreline repairs at Varney Point
Summary
The Gilford Conservation Commission recommended approval of a wetlands permit for Saragas Revocable Trust to repair 75 feet of stone retaining wall and repair an existing jetty at 62 Varney Point Road, with standard siltation measures required.
The Gilford Conservation Commission on Feb. 3, 2026, recommended approval of a Standard Dredge and Fill Wetlands Permit for Saragas Revocable Trust at 62 Varney Point Road to repair shoreline structures. The application calls for impacting 345 square feet to repair or replace 75 feet of stone retaining wall and 382 square feet to repair an existing jetty.
Vice-Chair Gary Geoffroy read the application for the commission; after reviewing the submitted materials members described the proposed work as reasonable. Geoffroy moved to recommend approval “with the normal siltation measures to be implemented,” a motion seconded by Robert McDonald and carried with all in favor. The commission did not record any conditions beyond the standard siltation protections.
The decision is a recommendation by the Conservation Commission; any further municipal approvals or conditions required by permitting authorities were not specified in the minutes.
