• Applicant’s Engineer should provide testimony about the contradicting stormwater requirements and request a waiver since the project is reducing stormwater volumes and impervious coverage compared to the existing conditions. 8. Steep Slopes: • Major concerns are anticipated from the Board regarding the steep slope disturbance proposed. Applicant was encouraged to prepare robust testimony to support their proposal. The Engineer recommended that the Geotechnical expert who provided the previously submitted report be present at the meeting to provide testimony and answer questions from the Board. • Applicant noted that many of the trees that are proposed to be removed are not in good shape, and they will get more information on the number of these trees to provide as an exhibit for their testimony. 9. Other points: • Applicant is requesting a number of variances because of the large size of this proposal (impervious coverage, height, setback etc.) • It was emphasized that the Board will be reviewing this plan according to the existing zoning and what is currently permitted. • Applicant’s attorney noted that a statement was provided regarding the environmental impact statement. • Applicant represented that no revised drawings will be provided and would like to move forward to the Board hearing with current site plans that are submitted. It should be noted that these are notes from the SPRAB meeting that was held virtually and is not a thorough review of the application. Please review the Board Engineer and Board Planner’s review for a thorough review of the application. Please do not hesitate to contact me for any planning related questions at mapte@hgapa.com.
