Mr. Dimakarakos proposed a 500 square foot addition 30 feet away from the wetland within an area that was previously disturbed by a septic system. No formal lawn is to be installed. Comments from the Commission as follows: Ms. Miller read the engineering report. Mr. Langseth commented that there is room in the back of the house for the addition. Victor V. of 4 Turning Mill Road described an alternatives analysis for the location of the proposed addition. He explained that the house on the north, south, and east side are built into the landscape and it would require significant excavation and disturbance. The proposed location would save a lot of trees. Mr. Langseth commented that the stormwater standards are good, but there could be additional mitigation. Mr. Hamilton stated that the 30 foot setback is a concern and he read the setback regulation. Mr. Wolk asked if an arborist was consulted regarding the property. Mr. Kennedy asked how far behind the house the oak tree is located. Ms. Mullins suggested that an alternatives analysis be done to give the Commission a better perspective on the choice of location for the addition. Mr. Wolk suggested conducting another site visit.
