<br />TOWN OF LEXINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS <br />CONSERVATION COMMISSION <br />MINUTES <br />Tuesday April 5, 2016 <br /> 6:30 P.M. <br />Parker Room, Town Office Building <br />1625 Massachusetts Ave <br />Chair Phil Hamilton opened the meeting at 6:30 pm in the Parker Room of the Town Office <br />Building <br />Commissioners Present: Alex Dohan, Dick Wolk, Phil Hamilton, Joyce Miller, Duke Bitsko, <br />David Langseth <br />Others Present: Casey Hagerty, Conservation Department Assistant <br />6:30 <br />Update on Enforcement at 55 and 31 Allen Street <br />Rich Kirby and Bill Dailey <br />Mr. Kirby explained to the commission that he had dug three more test sites on the property. <br />Two were dug in the area that the GIS marked as a wetland and one was dug where the <br />restoration stream is planned. The two test pits dug in the wetland identified by the GIS did not <br />turn up wetland soils. Mr. Kirby explained that he consulted with a senior soil scientist to discuss <br />whether the fill he found was truly historic and it was decided that it was. In the soil pit dug by <br />the potential stream area, he found that the type of soil would support a stream. He stated that it <br />is likely the stream would be ground water fed. <br />Mr. Kirby explained to the commission that the proposed restoration plan would involve 2,800 <br />sq. ft. with a meandering stream. He stated that they would create a formal restoration and <br />stormwater management plan to be approved by the commission. <br />Questions and comments from the commissioner: <br />The commission stated that they would need more time to review the information given to them <br />and to determine if the size of the wetland restoration was sufficient. <br /> <br />
