— Wetland Border Report; Prepared by: Mitch Maslanka, Goddard Consulting LLC; Prepared for: Inna Rifman; Date: 4/2/2021; — Cover Letter; Prepared by: Mitch Maslanka, Goddard Consulting LLC; Date: 11/17/2021; — Stormwater Analysis; Prepared, stamped and signed by: Frederick W. Russell, PE; Date: 11/12/2021; Mr. Mitch Maslanka, Goddard Consulting LLC,presented to the Commission. Mr. Maslanka stated that the proposed construction will take place within the 50-100 foot buffer zone and the infiltration area is being installed in the front yard with a trench drain located at the end of the driveway. He added that a small Swale is being proposed on the side (east) yard to prevent stormwater runoff onto the abutting property, and that all roof runoff will be captured in the infiltration system. It was requested that the tree stump remain in place, if possible and Mr. Maslanka responded that he will discuss with the property owner and provide a response at the next meeting. Mr. Robert Hannigan, owner of 6 Ames Avenue, spoke on behalf of abutters in the neighborhood. Mr. Hannigan stated that some abutters constantly have water in their basement and there is a lot of concern for those who are pumping water regularly out of their basements. Mr. Maslanka explained how the cultec chamber system will function, and that runoff will be infiltrated multiple feet below ground and on this lot. Mr. Maslanka added that the applicant has put forth his best effort to mitigate as much stormwater runoff as possible. Ms. Dohan responded that the existing dwelling has no infiltration and the proposed dwelling with stormwater management will allow less runoff from the property to surrounding properties. On a motion by Mr. Langseth and seconded by Ms. Ladd, the Commission voted 6-0 by roll call vote to continue the hearing to the December 20, 2021 meeting at the applicant's request.
