Committee members said the site falls in a priority development area and noted the importance of avoiding wetland impacts where a brook runs through the property. Members recommended perimeter native landscaping and erosion controls to limit runoff into the stream.
A committee member summarized the proposal as a small headquarters and materials depot for asphalt reclamation operations with sample bins and truck access. Members advised the applicant and Planning Board to keep operations and material handling away from mapped cold‑water stream segments and to maintain buffer plantings along the riparian area.
What’s next: the committee will forward its request that the Planning Board require landscaping, wetland buffers and measures to prevent material or trash entering the adjacent stream to the Planning Board’s review file.
