Don Brack (representing the Eloise Nominee Trust) described work at 1 and 5 Sandy Drive, saying prior structures were removed, revegetation was completed and some minor deviations (a post-and-rail fence, an AC unit and an outdoor shower) are located farther from the wetland than originally shown. Conservation staff visited the properties and recommended issuance, noting no continuing conditions were required.

Paul Santos of Nantucket Surveyors represented White Elephant Hotel Residences LLC on two adjacent lots at 14 North Water Street. He said the properties were developed according to approved plans (connected to public sewer and water) and that as-built grades and plantings comply with the orders. Staff inspected both sites and recommended issuing the certificates.

Commissioners moved and seconded issuance of the certificates of compliance for SE483456 and SE483624 (Eloise Nominee Trust) and SC483739 and SC483740 (White Elephant lots).

The vote was unanimous.

Arc Esparo presented the proposal, which would remove an existing soil absorption system from within the buffer zone and relocate it north, outside the commission's jurisdiction, while installing an I/A (innovative/alternative) technology septic upgrade within the buffer. Arc Esparo said the change is an improvement over the existing septic condition and requested confirmation of the resource boundary.

During public comment, Jasmine Alcantara, owner of 61 Starbuck Road and the adjacent property, said she has legal concerns unrelated to the conservation commission's jurisdiction — alleging the McMahons' driveway crosses her property without an easement and describing prior disturbances to bordering wetlands in the 1980s. Chair Seth Engleboer advised that property-rights or trespass matters fall outside the commission's review of the Wetlands Protection Act and town regulations.

Conservation staff recommended a Negative 3 (work within buffer but no adverse impact) and confirmed the boundary delineations (Positive 2a); commissioners moved and seconded the determinations and approved them by roll call.

Brian Madden of LEC described the project as relocating the fence to follow the existing lawn edge, noting there are limited areas where the lawn edge and the 50-foot buffer to a bordering vegetated wetland (BVW) overlap by approximately 5 to 8 feet. Madden said the stakes designating the 50-foot buffer were placed and that the walking access to Tom Nevers Pond would be maintained as a migratory corridor.

Commissioners who visited the site expressed differing views. Commissioner Mike Mizzarelli, who attended the site visit, said he was not concerned about fencing around a pool area but suggested that any encroachment into the buffer might require tightening other lawn areas. Commissioner RJ Turcotte said he did not support allowing the fence inside the 50-foot buffer, calling the buffer line “the line we draw.” Commissioner Linda Williams said the fence should be subdued wherever it is placed and questioned whether some locations were actually inside the 50-foot buffer or simply within hedgerow; she expressed concern about tall post caps and the fence's visual effect.

Madden said some places where the applicant proposes the fence are “about 5 feet off of the lawn area, you know, maybe max 8 feet or so,” and argued that a 5–10 foot encroachment would be “de minimis” and not materially affect deer migration given a 90–100 foot corridor to the pond. Commissioners suggested compromises: allowing small encroachments at three tight choke points while steering the fence back to the 50-foot line elsewhere.

After discussion, Madden requested a continuance to August 7 to confer with the owner and return with a compromise. The commission continued the application to the August 7 meeting.","The commission heard a proposal to relocate a fence at 62 Anoma Way that would encroach 5–8 feet into the 50-foot buffer to a bordering vegetated wetland near Tom Nevers Pond; after discussion the applicant requested a continuance to August 7 to pursue a compromise.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6157002,"Conservation commission approves addition, septic upgrade and grants waiver at 16 Codfish Park Road",125,1759000,1884000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5467817-bef8866799c68e157fde549c22bb0e81&start=1759&end=1884","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5467817-bef8866799c68e157fde549c22bb0e81/thumbnail_1759000.jpg","/articles/6157002/Nantucket-County/Massachusetts/Conservation-commission-approves-addition-septic-upgrade-and-grants-waiver-at-16-Codfish-Park-Road","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6157002-a93d961053fbef4eb83433102254956a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770447986&Signature=At6eTxtjawanU4Vx5zAWnKAWE8D7XMbCg0t~LRyNj6LCynVHOarLWfL~8cTzM5EWWI40rFbYGLn9obOTnlLBcksh1UKXVA8xvG0VhWwLuKx03M7raMVPSAnc8tLDvxKmqDOcDq6AFV0TT~LuG-pY4NhsF8indbTKR7EY~8z8W5qRwWKsW9~7oyam5lFrh2biazGE9eyrKdTeI6cSMj1-j6wC3QEaj6KablP73VhPAWG2jmK9lKbdZ~-XVqHu0ZL9gPAH89lsMbxEAO4j4bmJLF4EKKZTGl8JWjHsykfo-4LbVf9ARAi8ECiodWoPnR-qrzCSGCFW31e5AjP4MFyATw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Nantucket Conservation Commission on July 24 approved an order of conditions permitting an addition to an existing cottage and a Title 5 septic upgrade at 16 Codfish Park Road, voting 6–0 with Commissioner Linda Williams recused.

The commission granted a waiver under the town's wetlands regulation (cited in the meeting as 390-3h3b), finding that the project area is separated from the coastal dune by a publicly traveled vehicular access way and that the proposed design avoids adverse impacts to the resource. Will, a conservation commission staff member, read the conditions on the record, including requirements for native restoration plantings, controls on fertilizer and agricultural chemicals, directing roof runoff to a subsurface infiltration system, and lighting standards.

The project, presented by Brian Madden of LEC, places the proposed addition on the landward side of the existing cottage and replaces a stone patio and retaining wall. The septic work replaces a leach pit with a Title 5-compliant system located between the road and the structure. Madden said the location chosen for the septic is the only viable spot on the parcel and that the redesign represents an improvement over existing conditions.

Commissioners discussed the waiver standard before voting. Chair Seth Engleboer and several commissioners said the addition is small and the septic upgrade provides environmental benefit. Commissioner Tim Bridal urged caution in applying the public-access waiver broadly for coastal dune resources, noting the regulation's language is discretionary. Several commissioners said the proposal moves development further from the dune and were satisfied the design avoids material adverse impacts.

The commission's motion to approve the amended order of conditions passed by roll call: Mike Mizzarelli, Arjun (RJ) Turcotte, Joe Plandowski, Tim Breen, John Schaefer and Chair Seth Engleboer voted aye; Linda Williams recused. The order includes standard construction and post-construction conditions described on the record.

The commission directed staff to finalize the written order with the conditions read into the record and to post the final document with the meeting packet.
