Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 1 MINUTES OF JANUARY 5, 1989 The public hearings of January 5, 1989 were called to order at 7:31 PM. Members present were: Bill Willet - Chairman, Peter W. Dunwiddie, Lee Dunn and Henry Wasierski. Members absent were: Carl Borchert, Granville Cranston and Donald Visco. Administrator present: Ben McKelway. Recording secretary: Marcia J. Litchfield. A. Comments, questions from press and public. 1. Tina Coughanowr of Horsley Witten Hegemann wanted to discuss an upcoming application for Jones in Squam with the Commission informally prior to filing. The application would be involving a lot having a limited building area and large wetland area. She asked the Commission if expansion towards the intermittent stream would be allowed in order to avoid cutting down existing vegetation which the applicant wished to keep. Bill Willet and Peter Dunwiddie decided they would personally prefer to look at the site before making that decision. 2. Lynn Zimmerman of the Nantucket Land Council wanted to speak briefly about Conservation Restrictions and offered to supply each of the Commissioners with a book about them written by Stephen Small. Lee Dunn asked what incentives were in place for property owners to want a Conservation Restriction. Lynn said the main reason to want one was ultimately to protect the land into perpetuity, but there were also 3 tax advantages to the owner: 1) it lowers the value of the property and thus lowers the state tax; 2) the difference in the value between the property as taxed normally and as taxed with the Conservation Restriction would be the owner's gift to the Town; and 3) it lowers the value of the property and thus lowers the local tax. Melissa Philbrick of Vaughan, Dale and Philbrick commented that many ConComs on the mainland actually write Conservation Restrictions into some Orders of Conditions, and this is considered common legal practice in Boston. Ms Zimmerman said it "", . , Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 2 is important to remember that each piece of land is different and must be considered on a case by case basis. Lee Dunn thought the ConCom could consider Restrictions in the future as long as they could be recommended intelligently. B. PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. W Harborfront Nominee Trust - SE~8-520 - Lot 20 - Polpis Road (26-22); 2. Quaise Pasture Nominee Trust - SE48-518 - Lot 21 - Polpis Road (26-22); 3. Mako Nominee Trust - SE~8-521 - Lot 22 - Pol pis Road (26-22);~. Shallow Harbor Nominee Trust - SE~8-517 - Lot 23 - Polpis Road (26-22); and 5. Harbor Breeze Nominee Trust - SE48-519 - Lot 2~ - Polpis Road (26-22). Lee Dunn abstained from all 5 hearings. Rachael Hobart of Vaughan, Dale and Philbrick was present, in the absence of Melissa Philbrick, as agent with the applicant, Randy Sharp. Tina Coughanowr of Horsley Witten Hegemann and Jeff Blackwell of Hart-Blackwell were also present as agents for the applicant. NOTE: The following discussion applies to all 5 lots. Ms Coughanowr submitted plans having proposed lines for Conservation Restrictions for some of the lots. Ms Hobart requested a continuance of the hearings for lots #20, #22 and #23 pending draft documents incorporating Conservation Restrictions on those lots to be presented at the next meeting on January 19, 1989. A motion was made to continue the hearings for those lots at the request of the applicant. The motion was carried. NOTE: The following discussion applies specifically to lots #21 and #2~. Lot n: Ms Coughanowr had spoken with Liz Khoulaharis at DEQE who outlined 3 options to solve the dilemma on this lot: 1) require a 1:1 replacement of wetland vegetation; 2) require no replacement t'-"'" '\ ~~,,'i:~ r:.:J~ ~~ ~ "piS ~~.U\. o-ilJll t-;\", ~:'.I \--r-~:c~_~/...... ~.. ~~","-I" It \.~~..... -'-'ft:=--=--..........ro~l "O~j;........e. ~. ...4' ..-_~ ORA1~ rt'"v ..........."". Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 3 of wetland vegetation; and 3) require the applicant to overcome the presumptions and issue a Notification of Non-Significance. Peter Dunwiddie did not think the wetland vegetation was significant enough to require replacement. Ms Coughanowr said no fill was involved, only extensive grading and resurfacing. She said although the applicant was requesting a waiver, he was willing to consider a Conservation Restriction to compensate for that request and that all setback requirements would be met. Henry Wasierski thought the replication would serve no real purpose and would likely do more damage than good. Ms Hobart wanted to put all discussion about the Restriction on hold until the next meeting. Ben McKelway was concerned that the proposed draft she would present would be harder to change if not discussed with the Commission first. Ms Hobart said in this age of word-processing anything could be changed later. Ben said he meant it would be psychologically harder to change once drafted, though. Ms Coughanowr discussed the small 8-inch culvert to be used. Peter Dunwiddie asked Lynn Zimmerman of the Nantucket Land Council to provide the ConCom with information on criteria used for establishing lines for Conservation Restrictions. Lynn said there must always be an area large enough around the house to allow for normal human activity such as gardening, landscaping and outdoor activities, but this would be discussed in the book she agreed to supply earlier. Lynn agreed to meet with Melissa Philbrick to discuss the lines before the next meeting. Ms Hobart stressed that they would be presenting merely working documents next tL~e. Ben McKelway wanted to know what the ConCom felt about using a Notification of Non-significance here. Peter Dunwiddie said this was a marginal wetland and the applicant was proposing use of a Notification as one way of dealing with the work within it. He said the questions were whether to require replication or not, and whether to call it a wetland or not. Ms Coughanowr said she thought the Order of Conditions could legally contain a section that regards only this portion of the whole project to be non-significant. r" ".",:.', '} ..~ ~~14TUCJr~ ~~~ !(~~, ~\~:'.' · ..\ :z...-~~-_/ .- ~.. ~~"'"-/Jt'1 ...

Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page ~ A motion was made to continue the hearing for more information about Conservation Restrictions and consideration of the non-significance of a portion of the lot. The motion was carried. Lot 2~: Ms Coughanowr submitted a supplemental report dated January 5, 1989 summarizing issues raised during site visits and past hearings concerning wetland boundaries and the variance being requested. She said Hart-Blackwell had surveyed the alternative house site discussed at the last meeting and anticipated problems with the extensive grading needed due to the steep slope of the site. Jeff Blackwell said Bob Epple was working on a new bridge design which may be able to span the entire length without using pilings. There was further discussion about some of the wetland boundaries and wetland scenic views. Randy Sharp said using the alternate house site would involve disturbing some of the older trees and he was concerned about the negative impact on wetland scenic views. Ben McKelway added that the ConCom is never obligated to approve a crossing though a wetland. Ms Coughanowr agreed with Mr Sharp and stressed the need for extensive site work. The possibility of a second dwelling being built at some point in the future was another concern of the Commission and Ben McKelway thought the impacts should be nailed down now. Lynn Zimmerman said the Notice proposed limiting additional dwellings in the future. Peter Dunwiddie found difficulty in bypassing 2 other potential building sites in favor of a third one closer to a wetland. Ms Coughanowr admitted they were having to balance buildability with wetland scenic views. Henry Wasierski wanted to see just how offensive it would be if the house were built into the side of the hill at the alternative site. A motion was made to continue the hearing for the following information: :, Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 5 1) more detail on alternative bridge designs; 2) more analysis of alternative house sites and more detail on regrading at one of them; 3) information about a possible second dwelling in the future and ~) some photographs taken from Polpis Road representing views of one alternative house site to be used in comparative analysis for the wetland scenic views issue. The motion was carried. 6. D & K Realty Trust - Hummock Pond Road (56-59). Rachael Hobart of Vaughan, Dale and Philbrick was present as agent for the applicant and submitted abutters notification. Tina Coughanowr of Horsley Witten Hegemann was present as a geologist and wetland scientist for the applicant. Attorney Donald McNamee was present for abutters, the Powers. Ms Coughanowr gave a brief site description of the shrub swamp having a manmade ditch running through it. She said the primary dwelling would be 63 ft away from the wetland and the secondary dwelling would be 55 ft. One change had been made to the original Notice of Intent in moving the well 20 ft farther from the wetland boundary. Peter Dunwiddie said he had no problems with the application. Attorney McNamee requested time to review the application for the Powers. A motion was made to continue the hearing for comments from Mr McNamee and a DEQE file n~~er. The motion was carried. 7. Nantucket Land Council/von Summer - 29 Hulbert Ave (29-23). Tina Coughanowr of Horsley Witten Hegemann was present as agent for the applicant and submitted abutters notification. The results of a recent field inspection were read. } , ,r') ..~ ~~14TUCIr';~ ~1- o '.1- ti~'~\ o _jlJla ~X'" ~J' = . ~-~ ~ ~I ""-.. ~~'~--LI'tI ~^... ~~-..,ro ~ ~-, .. ...

Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 6 Ms Coughanowr gave a brief description of the project stating this was a 19,500 sq ft parcel with elevations ranging from 0 - 8 ft MSL. She said the following work was proposed: 1) an 1100 sq ft addition to the existing garage located ~5 ft away from the edge of a currently non-migrating coastal dune which is cut off from Nantucket Harbor by the seawall; 2) exterior and interior renovations to the house with no change to the footprint; 3) construction of a deck and boardwalk; ~) grading and filling on the landward portion of the site; 5) remove the existing gravel driveway and add plantings of indigenous plant species; 6) basic landscaping around the house; 7) build a proposed walkway over the dunes; 8) build a seasonally removable stairway down to the beach; and 9) face the seawall with wooden planking and run additional planks along its top edge to allow for walking out its length. Bill Willet wanted to see more detail on the grading work. Ms Coughanowr offered to provide a contour plan showing the existing and proposed grades. Bill asked if the walkway could be brought in closer to the house. She said the plans were still conceptual and flexible and that would certainly be a possibility. Peter Dunwiddie asked if the seawall and the groins were still intact and she said yes. Abutter Jane Merrill said the bulkhead had been made of cement all along and had never before been covered with wood plar~ing. Peter wanted to know how the facing would be attached. Ms Coughanowr did not know presently, but she would find out. 1 -..j ';~.. /. ':1 , Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 7 After a request from the chairman for any other public comments, a motion was made to continue the hearing for: 1) a plan showing existing and proposed contours; 2) information on how the wooden facing would be attached; and 3) a DEQE file number. The possibility of keeping the porch and not adding the deck was discussed, and Ben was asked to find a similar previous filing along Hulbert Ave to refer to at the next meeting. Abutter Sandy Craig wanted the record to reflect that his father had built the house. Attorney Arthur Reade commented on the abutter notification procedure and explained the 300 ft rule used by the Nantucket Assessor's office. The motion was carried. C. REGULAR MEETING 1. Requests for Determination a. Consue Springs house (55.1.4-15). Christopher Holland was present as agent for the applicant, the Nantucket Conservation Commission. Ben McKelway said Charles Sayle, Sr. did not like the cupola and thought the new building should be just like the original one. Mr Holland said the cupola is actually known as a lantern or a light in architectural terms, adding the gazebo has traditionally been thought of as a truly playful item. Henry Wasierski thought it would be good to put the new design in the Inquirer and Mirror to solicit public comment, and suggested putting it in as an item in the "Development Watch" section. Mr Holland went on to describe the base wall that would be covered with shingles, the idea being to make it vandal-proof, , 1 Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 8 while still complying with HDC regulations. He preferred not to submit tonight's design to the newspaper, but said he was working on a new drawing having the lantern toned down a bit. He agreed to submit the new drawing. Ben McKelway said that according to Charles Sayle, Sr, the existing pipe going down to the spring had been driven too deep to draw water any more. Henry Wasierski agreed to go out with Mr Holland to investigate the actual depth of the pipe. There was more discussion about the spring and pipe design. Mr Holland pointed out that the entire structure was to be prefabricated off-site except for the concrete base. A motion was made to issue a negative Detel~ination stating the work described in the Request is within the Buffer Zone, as defined in the regulations, but will not alter an Area Subject to Protection Under the Act. Therefore, said work does not require the filing of a Notice of Intent. A note was added: New Structure may be no closer to the top of the bank than previously existing structure. New structure must be built off-site. There shall be no disturbance of the bank, and no litter or debris shall be left behind after the project is completed. The motion was carried. Chairman Bill Willet took the opportunity to publicly thank Chris Holland for his contribution of overseeing this project. b. Metcalfe - 10 North Beach Street (~2.~.1-37 & 38.1). Henry Wasierski abstained from the discussion and vote. George Metcalfe was present with agent, Lloyd Arnold. The results of a recent field inspection were read. Two letters of opposition were read from Joseph Damsker and Elizabeth Little. Peter Dunwiddie suspected that much of the site was originally wetland that has been filled in various places over the years. Mr Metcalfe said the site used to be the Gordon Folger Hotel's garbage dump. A motion was made to issue a negative Determination stating the work described in the Request is within the Buffer Zone, as defined in the regulations, but will not I ,. t, Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 9 alter an Area Subject to Protection Under the Act. Therefore, said work does not require the filing of a Notice of Intent. A note was added: There shall be no change in grade. The motion was carried. After the Determination was signed, it was realized there were only 3 signatures, since Henry Wasierski had abstained. Ben McKelway said Town Counsel had advised that all documents have ~ signatures, but the general concensus of the Commission was that it would not be a problem. c. Shapiro/Marden - Pocomo Road (15 - 18 & 19). Lee Dunn abstained from the discussion and vote. Attorney Reginald Marden was present as agent for the applicant. The results of a recent field inspection were read. Mr Marden stated that there were no stairs or walkways planned at this point and this section of the Harborfront is experiencing minimal erosion at the present time. A motion was made to issue a negative Determination stating the area described in the Request is not an Area Subject to Protection Under the Act. A note was added: This applies to the area 100 ft or more from the top of the coastal bank. The motion was carried. 2. Orders of Conditions a. V. Linburg - SE48-51~ - 31 Codfish Park Road (73.1.3-11). John Shugrue was present as agent for the applicant. Bill Willet had spoken with Mr Linburg about reducing the size of the house or moving it back further from the dune edge. He requested more time to consider those suggestions. A motion was made to defer issuance of the Order of Conditions until January 20, 1989 at the request of the applicant with his understanding that the statutory 21-day period would be waived with his consent based on a written statement from his agent John Shugrue. The motion was carried. j j ") Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 10 3. Certificates of Compliance a. McKerrow - SE48-421 - West Chester Street (~1-337). Glen Wills of Nantucket Surveyors was present as agent for the applicant. Ben McKelway reported that Glen had told him attorney Melissa Philbrick wanted a chance to speak with the Mr. McKerrow before a Certificate was issued. The Commission decided to wait until the next meeting. b. Kotalac - SE~8-~57 - 129 Meadowview Drive (56-113.1). A motion was made to issue a Certificate of Compliance certifying that the work regulated by the above-referenced Order of Conditions has beeD satisfactorily completed. The motion was carried. ~. Planning Board Referral a. Nantucket Airport Commission - off Bunker (New South) Road. A motion was made to advise the Planning Board that this subdivision plan is not subject to the Wetlands Protection Act, being an advisory opinion only and not a formal Determination of Applicability. The motion was carried. 5. Other Business a. DeBenedictus - SE48-340 (21-19) - discussion. Ben McKelway explained that Health Agent Richard Ray had issued a Cease and Desist Order and was waiting to hear that the septic system had been repaired to conform to Nantucket Health Regulations. b. Wauwinet House - SE~8-482 (11-17) - pier out - wedding May 6 and SE~8-392 (11-17) catchbasins discussion. James Gay of Engineering Management Corporation and Tina Coughanowr of Horsley Witten Hegemann were present as agents for the applicant with Russ Cleveland, General Manager of the Wauwinet Inn. Mr Gay withdrew his request to put out the pier earlier in the season than allowed by the Order of Conditions, and wished to discuss the parking lot catchbasin instead. He asked Ms ) I') Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 11 Coughanowr to explain the modifications that had been made to maintain good water quality and ensure the system worked properly. She said it had been redesigned by Jim Freeman of IEP and would be cleaned twice a year. Henry Wasierski questioned the efficiency of the system and said the catchbasin must have a solid bottom and solid sides with 1 outlet. He was concerned about the siphoning effect of the proposed design, and suggested putting another elbow on. Lee Dunn agreed saying they needed to deal with the hydrocarbon separation problem and the sedimentation problem. There was further discussion about the permeability of the soils and the parking lot. A motion was made to regard the changes as described as a minor modification to the above-referenced Order of Conditions. Nelson Jones representing the Wauwinet Landowners Association requested a chance to refer the changes back to the members for comment at the next meeting. He said the catchbasin was higher than the road and has frequent, serious flooding problems into abutting properties and the road. Lee Dunn was concerned about the runoff. Mr Gay thought the new parking lot had better drainage than the old one. Mr Gay offered to redraw the plans to incorporate the plpe modification discussed tonight and requested the vote be deferred until the January 19, 1989 meeting. The motion was withdrawn. c. Lugosch (Hood) - SE48-379 (27-23.1) - discussion. Mary Trudeau of Daylor Consulting Group was present as agent with Daniel Lugosch to respond to a recent letter from the Commission requesting him to resolve the discrepancy between the state and local Orders of Conditions issued for the project. Ms Trudeau said Mr Lugosch never realized there was a problem and the house had been built according to the Superseding Order of Conditions, but he was willing to listen to any suggestions from the Commission. The house is now 9 ft away from the wetland instead of the 35 ft allowed by the local Order. Peter Dunwiddie } f' :', Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 12 said the real problem is the Commission will never be able to issue a Certificate of Compliance on the project because it was not built in compliance with the local Order. He stressed that the DEQE Superseding Order does not supersede the Commission's own order with respect to the local bylaw. Ms Trudeau said they can't do the big thing to rectify the situation, meaning remove the house. Mr Lugosch asked the Commission to consider that the zoning bylaw had changed during this application process involving a 35 ft setback from the road, and added that the Order of Conditions was issued under the old Nantucket Wetlands Bylaw. Bill Willet suggested Mr Lugosch consult his attorney about how he plans to get his Certificate of Compliance and approach the Commission at a later date about the matter. d. Town Meeting articles - discussion. Ben McKelway had drafted 4 articles and opened them up for discussion tonight. #1 requested $5000 to continue the program for the restoration of Warren's Landing Recreation Area which the Co~~ission did not favor doing again, since the Area had been restored and any maintenance costs were covered by the line item budgeted for recreational area maintenance. #2 requested a vote by the Town to transfer to the Conservation Fund of the Town any monies appropriated at the 1987 Annual Town Meeting for use by the ConCom for the period of July 1, 1988 - June 30, 1989 which shall not have been expended by June 30, 1989. Since this article has not been recommended now for several years running by the Finance Co~~ittee, the Commission did not favor submitting it again this year. #3 requested changes to the Nantucket Wetlands Bylaw as drafted by the Administrator. The Con~ission favored its submission. #~ requested the appropriation, borrowing of or transferring of available funds $20,000 to be added to the Conservation Fund of the Town for the acquisition of land and rights therein for public use. The Commission also favored this submission. J --" ,I" > , Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 13 A motion was made to delete draft articles #1 and #2 from the Town Meeting Warrant and to submit articles #3 and #~. The motion was carried. e. Ratner - unauthorized dune walkway - discussion. Mr and Mrs Ratner were present and had submitted a letter previously to explain how and why the walkway was constructed. Mr Ratner said he had bought the property in 1974 at which time there was approx 165 ft to the water line and no dunes were present on his property then. He said there was no erosion for 10 years after. He apologized for not having filed, but he did not think what he was doing at the time ca~me under the Commission's jurisdiction. Mr Ratner continued by drawing the layout on the board and discussion followed about the present eroding conditions at the site. He was fully willing to cooperate with any requests by the Con@ission and said he was a conservationist by nature. Lee Dunn thought the walkway was probably outside of the ConCom's jurisdiction at the time of building and since the regulations allow for walkways, Mr Ratner need not take any action now. Mr Ratner doubted the walkway would even exist for more than 10 more years due to the erosion. Peter Dunwiddie added that the erosion rate there now is 27 ft per year. Bill Willet asked that he check with the Commission before attempting any future work, however. Mr Ratner was also asked to cut off overhanging portions of walkway which had been undermined already. f. Taylor - SE~8-397 (29-10) - further enforcement action? Commission decided to leave further enforcement actions Town Counsel, since Mr. Taylor has now taken the matter court. The up to to g. Winn/Stark - SE~8-272 (56-232.1) - discussion. Ben McKelway said Mr Winn had called recently to say in his opinion all work covered by the Order of Conditions had been completed and therefore no new Notice was necessary. Mr Winn was not present. After brief discussion, the Commission decided a new Notice of Intent was necessary and asked Ben to inform him of that. ;-) Town of Nantucket Conservation Commission Town and County Building Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Minutes of January 5, 1989 Page 1~ h. Town land at mouth of The Creeks - clean up? Ben McKelway reported that the Commission had been asked by the Nantucket Police Department to clean up abandoned boats on what they believed was Commission property at The Creeks. After some discussion, the Commission instructed Ben to pursue the matter, but to avoid spending more than $300-~00 on it. i. Polpis Rd bikepath route inspection with Town Engineer Gene Crouch - meet at Island Lumber 9AM Saturday, January 7. J. Weinman - SE48-439 (25-32) - request for minor modification. A request had been received to accept as minor a modification to the approved plans involving relocating the well further out of the wetland. After reviewing the plans, a motion was made to send a letter to that effect and not requiring the filing of a new Notice of Intent. The motion was carried. 6. Correspondence All correspondence was summarized on one sheet and taken home to be read individually. 7. Minutes of December 15, 1988 A motion was made to accept the minutes as written. The motion was carried. There being no other business, the meeting adjourned at 11:0~ PM.
