Portions of the <br /> proposed activities are located within the 100-foot Buffer Zone to BVW <br /> Previous Meeting Date: 5/24/2021 <br /> Supplemental Documentation: <br /> — "Drainage Plan"; 609 Waltham Street in Lexington, Massachusetts; dated May 3, 2021, <br /> prepared by Gala Simon Associates, Inc.; Revised: 6/2/2021; <br /> — "Engineering Drainage Calculations"; 609 Waltham Street, Lexington, Massachusetts; <br /> dated May 3, 2021; Prepared by Gala Simon Associates, Inc.; Revised: 6/2/2021; <br /> Mr. Richard Kirby, LEC Environmental, and Mr. Al Gala, Project Engineer, presented before the <br /> Commission. Mr. Kirby informed the Commission that the proposed addition has been reduced <br /> to outside of the 50-foot buffer zone, the driveway is proposed closer to the garage, grading close <br /> to the tree is minimal, and tree protection has been added. During the previous meeting, <br /> questions were raised regarding the proximity of the infiltration system to the foundation. Mr. <br /> Kirby stated that Mr. Gala eliminated that system and instead added a cultec chamber to the <br /> other system so it is a larger sized system next to the barn. The Applicant requested to keep the <br /> grape vines behind the barn area and offered to limit maintenance to only access the area and <br /> through non-chemical means. Ms. Samuels asked how the steep slope is proposed to be <br /> stabilized and Mr. Kirby responded that the area will be regraded as a three to one slope and <br /> should be easy to stabilize. <br /> On a motion by Mr. Langseth and seconded by Ms. Samuels, the Commission voted 7-0 by roll <br /> call vote to close the hearing. <br /> Record of vote as follows: <br /> Kevin Beuttell—Aye <br /> Duke Bitsko —Aye <br /> Alex Dohan—Aye <br /> Ruth Ladd—Aye <br /> David Langseth—Aye <br /> Holly Samuels —Aye <br /> Phil Hamilton—Aye <br /> 8:48 PM <br />
