Turning Mill Neighborhood Conservation District (TMNCD) COMMISSION <br /> MEETING MINUTES <br /> April 2, 2020 <br /> Call to Order: A public meeting of the Turning Mill Neighborhood Conservation District <br /> Commission was held virtually via Zoom meeting. The meeting convened at 7:30 PM. <br /> TMNCD Commission Members in Attendance: <br /> Diane Pursley, Renata Cathou, Jim Dowling, Richard Canale, Eric Peterson, Marilyn Fenollosa <br /> (alternate) <br /> Public in Attendance: Robert Creech, Tina McBride <br /> AGENDA ITEM #1 <br /> Public hearing on the proposed garage addition at 5 Dewey Road <br /> APPLICANT (S) PRESENT: <br /> Rob DiPierro, DiPierro & Brown Construction (representing the property owners) <br /> ABUTTER(S) PRESENT: <br /> None <br /> DOCUMENT(S): <br /> Construction Plans Dated 12/27/2019 <br /> Site Plan Dated 2/5/2020 <br /> SUMMARY: The existing home is an original 1955 Peacock Farm home, with an 18x26 foot <br /> addition constructed in 2005 by previous owners. The applicant proposed the construction of a <br /> detached garage (24x24 foot) approximate 576 square feet placed in front of the house, fully <br /> visible from the public way on Dewey Road. The design of the garage matches the home, <br /> including the roofing, siding, windows, fascia/eave overhangs. The current driveway is steep, <br /> which presents some challenge when locating the garage. The plan proposes keeping the existing <br /> grade. Four oak trees are documented on the site plan to be removed from the site. <br /> TMNCD COMMENTS: Commission members agreed that the design of the new garage fit the <br /> design guidelines very well and had no concerns about the design. The placement of the garage <br /> directly in front of the house, obstructing the view of the house from the public way concerned <br /> all Commission members. The overall thought was to explore the possibility of flipping the <br /> garage and moving it to the right of the house so that it was not completely obstructing the view <br /> of the house. Some overlap would be fine if necessary. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENTS: <br /> Tina McBride (45 Turning Mill Road) suggested the option of turning the garage approximately <br /> 160 degrees and moving to the right of the house. This placement would draw the eye up the <br /> driveway and complement the house. <br />
