The 2021 Roberts Survey and the 2021 Roberts Slope Analysis depict a drainage ditch at the western end of the Property meandering just past the four-bay garage onto Lot 24.01 (owned by an LLC formed by the principal of the Applicant); 4. The 2021 Pool Artist Plan depicts a proposed drywell detention system in the center of the Property (not in the rear as constructed) and a limit of disturbance ending immediately south of the proposed pool and pool house – with no grading or disturbance, or associated slope disturbance, depicted at the rear/southern end of the Property in the location of the current drywell system and retaining wall; 5. The 2022 Matarazzo Plan depicts a layout, improvements and stormwater system that differs from the 2021 Pool Artist Plan; identifies the aforementioned drainage ditch meandering across Lot 24.01 before traveling through Lot 11 (owned by Llewellyn Park) to the Applicant’s Property; identifies a 24” pipe in a north-south direction; contemplates an outflow from the drywell system to the South of the Property; and no identification of the extent of the required steep slope disturbance at the rear of the Property to the Southern property line; 6. The 2024 Osterkorn Survey (which was relied on for the 2024 Colliers Site Plan) and the Colliers 2024 Site Plan depict the drainage ditch in a different location as compared to the 2021 Roberts Survey, the 2021 Pool Artist Plan, and the 2022 Matarazzo Plan; fails to depict “top of banks”, the drainage ditch meandering across Lot 24.01, the 24” pipe to the South of the Property, or any Outlet Structure from the drywell system to the South of the Property; and contemplates disturbance at the rear of the Property to the Southern property line without showing the extent of any disturbance of steep slopes; 7. The 2024 Osterkorn Survey also shows the discharge point of the channel to have been altered to enter a newly installed 36” pipe that diverts the discharge from Lots 20.03 and 24.01 to a steeply sloped area just beyond east boundary of Lot 20.03 into the west side of Block 104, Lot 10.31 within the Llewellyn Park community. This 36” pipe is approximately 70 feet long with a current slope

eply sloped area just beyond east boundary of Lot 20.03 into the west side of Block 104, Lot 10.31 within the Llewellyn Park community. This 36” pipe is approximately 70 feet long with a current slope greater than eight percent but located in an area with a prior slope exceeding 25%. 8. The 2024 Colliers Site Plan does not show any construction or design details for the proposed retaining walls or that they will be located with the 25% and 20% steepest slopes. The boulder wall on the 2024 Colliers Site Plan is also within the 25% steepest slopes.
