The Danvers Conservation Commission voted to issue a partial certificate of compliance for 7 Hutton Street (DEP file 14-0355) after reviewing an existing-conditions plan prepared for the property.
The certificate covers Lot 1 at 7 Hutton Street only; the adjacent lot that was part of the original order of conditions remains open. The commission recorded that staff and the applicant could not locate a finalized ‘‘as-built’’ or a modified plan from the original 1980s permitting and accepted the existing-conditions plan to memorialize what is on site.
Applicant Kathy Chadwick and Thor Eakerley, who identified himself as a professional wetland scientist with Williams and Spurages, said the house and associated features appear to follow the logical edge of development and do not show substantial deviations from the original order of conditions. "We submitted the request for strict compliance noting that there did not appear to be any substantial deviations from the... order of conditions," Eakerley said.
Commissioners asked staff about files and inspection history; staff confirmed searches of town records and the DEP recommendation to document current conditions when original plans could not be located. The commission made a motion to issue a partial certificate for 7 Hutton Street, DEP file 14-0355, for applicant Kathy Chadwick; the motion was seconded and approved by the members present.
The commission noted that Lot 2 (addressed as 12 Glen/12 Lehi Street in town records) remains open under a separate file; staff said they will contact those homeowners to obtain their partial certificate of compliance. The partial certificate issued tonight applies only to 7 Hutton Street and does not close any separate, still-open files.
