Please see plan attached. There is a drainage pond proposed on your property. I have copied Monica the Town's Staff
Planner on this email as well. Hopefully between the two of us we can get this issue resolved.

Jennifer,
Please see attached. I have marked lap the plan to show how the house, driveway, pond and septic are actually
built. There is significant difference between the two. I have also attached a couple of pictures of the current state of the
pond. It doesn't drain properly, it isn't located where these plans show that it should be, It is right next to the neighbors
house. I would imagine they are furious as well.
My second concern is the center of the cul-de-sac, I can't tell what the plan is there. It is filled with enough water that
one of the children was able to swim in it. It is literally a deep pond. Is that the plan? i would think they would drain that to
the wetlands area behind the houses.Through an underground pipe or something. r)O pj Pe- c),r) pkai j

Also, I have serious concerns about the septic system. Over the winter it appeared to have sunk. I understand that you
cannot compact on top of the tank so there was some settling, but it seems excessive. I would guess 8 to 12 inches. I
concerned that they didn't compact the ground that they laid the tank on. 8- 12 inches of movement is a lot for the
connection to move in the ground. Is there a person who can verify the proper inspection was done? Was it inspected?
Who do I talk to about this?

Daniel,
I do not have jurisdiction over these areas as they are more than 100'from the wetland resources. I would be happy to
visit the site with my colleagues from the health and planning departments to help find a solution. I do believe there are
issues and the pond will need to be functioning to receive a certificate of compliance from the Conservation Commission
as it is part of the larger stormwater management system. I do not believe that blue pipe is part of the proposal. I also do
not know the plan for the island at the end of the street but it will need to be stabilized prior to a certificate of compliance
as well.

Jennifer,
Yes, please visit the site. My wife or 1 can meet you at the house if necessary. Who is the correct person to direct these
issues to? For the record, I don't think we are more than 100 ft. from the stream behind the house. There are at least
parts of the stream that are closer than 100ft.

100'from the lot line when the proposal was submitted, I would be happy to review it again. Monica from Planning and

I am guessing that the pond is silted in and not functioning. Do we have any as-builts that would show if it is constructed
in the proper configuration?

Jen,
We do not have any as-built plans for this development, only letters from the Engineer stating that what has been built
confirms with the approved plans. As-Built plans were only required to be submitted as part of the release of all security
and escrowed funds, not the Certificates of Occupancy.

Hi Dan and Bridget, hope all is well! I can take a swing by after lunch today and take a look. Sometime between 12-2? 1
have seen issues like this at other sites and it's typically not the actual tank itself but the fill around and loam on top of it
that settles after construction. The tanks are set on a compacted base with a minimum of 6"of crushed 3/4" stone that is
inspected prior to the installer setting the tank and building the system. The tank is only 10'off the house and once it is
installed,the fill around it and the loam on top don't got mechanically compacted so there is some settling. Some sites
more than others but is worth being looked into! Let me know if today doesn't work.

Jennifer,

Hope you are well? I wanted to touch base with you again about one of the issues I am still having with the Builder and
controlling the excise wash out onto my property with the property next door. The house next door, under the builders
control still keeps washing out onto my driveway. We have mud and rocks pile up anytime it rains.The builders wife told
me it would be taken care of on 4/26. 1 left for vacation on 4/29, returned on 5/5 and the mess with no retention barrier
had been put into place. I just sent an email asking when this is going to happen but thought coming from the town it may
actually get done.1 also have a question for you with regards to drainage an the property. Being that the developer used
poor loam and seeding we have water running from the front to the yard into the conservation land. Any chance the
town/conservation can help force the developer to add loam and reseed the property to prevent this?
I know you are coming out here this week to meet with my neighbor with regards to the retention pond next door. My wife
and I are also very concerned with this as it doesn't drain and as the warmer weather approaches we are going to have
