Mr. Sperduto wanted to clarify that they are proposing a deck on the back of the house and no longer proposing the expanded peastone area. Mr. Sperduto also pointed out the benefits of the proposed landing, including a break in the fifteen steps for safety and that other configurations would require additional and more expensive piers. Applicants Evan Freeman and Michelle Yannetti raised concern about adding peastone on the downslope. Krisoula Varoudakis, designer for the applicant, also spoke to the Commission. Concerns of the Commission: -Cautions the applicant to be sure the dimensions have been carefully laid out and are not only schematic. -Does not want the stairway to end any closer to the wetland. Responses of the Applicant: -Fine with a condition for 3 feet of peastone at the bottom of the stairs. -There may be an additional tread. Measurements were taken off elevation of existing door. The rise and run were configured from that, but there was snow on the ground. -Can retain current distance from wetland edge by adding one of the treads to the top rise. On a motion by Mr. Langseth and seconded by Ms. Samuels, the Commission voted 7-0 by roll call vote to continue the hearing to October 5, 2020 for the purpose of retrieving the DEP number. Mr. Sperduto is not required to attend this meeting. Record of vote as follows: Duke Bitsko —Aye Kevin Beuttell—Aye Alex Dohan—Aye Ruth Ladd—Aye
