The loader was used for stone wall repair only and asked if he could use it for 45 removing the dead and cut trees. 46 The Board does not want heavy equipment in the Non-Disturbance area. 47 A. Crittenden: The large open area between the trees near the lake and home is a field that is only mowed three or 48 four times a year and is not fertilized.The replanting and reseeding involved homeowner's lawn area approx.400- 49 500 ft. away from the lake. The intent was to beautify the area, clean up lake debris and not to do any harm or 50 damage to the property. 51 The Board expressed concern that someone that has operated a landscaping business in town for this many years 52 should have known the rules and should not have violated them. The Board requested that Andy continue to work 53 on a Restoration Plan and for J. Enright to work with the Conservation Administrator,Jennifer Hughes,to ensure 54 the plan is adequate and satisfies both the Conservation Department's requirements and the Planning 55 Department's. This plan should be complete within four weeks. 56 57 Watershed Protection District: Bylaw Section 4.136 Table 1 and Table 2 58 J.Enright: Presented a discrepancy between the current Zoning Bylaw for the Watershed Protection District and 59 Article 1 in the 1995 Annual Town Report. This Article established the Conservation Zone and enlarged both the 60 Non-Disturbance Zone and the Non-Discharge Zone. The discrepancy is the distance of 150' from the Annual 61 High Water Mark of Lake Cochichewick in the 1995 Annual Report and the current Bylaw that states this distance 62 on Table 1 as 100'. 63 The Board requested J. Enright to discuss the matter with Joyce Bradshaw to determine if the 1995 Annual Report 64 correctly reflects what was voted at Town Meeting. If the 150' was what was voted at Town Meeting then J. 65 Bradshaw can determine if this is a clerical error and if an administrative correction can be made. If the current 66 Bylaw reflects how the Article was voted then the correction would need to be placed on the Warrant. 67 68 Update New District Overlay Project: 69 J. Simons asked J. Enright to provide a brief, informal update on the"New Overlay District". Jean reported that a 70 working group met last week. They are currently addressing comments/feedback and plan to meet one more time. 71 Committee has decided to incorporate this area within a sub-section of the Downtown Overlay,rather than to 72 create a new Overlay District. 73 74 Letter of Authorization 75 J.Enright requested the Board sign a Letter of Authorization to allow her to sign; on the Boards behalf, all plans 76 and Decisions to be filed with the Registry of Deeds and Land Court.
