Pending Business

DOR:06/02/2025 Reception and Possible Consideration Engineer Todd Parsons presented the plans showing the proposed demolition and new house, driveway, and septic system. He noted that Torrington Area Health District (TAHD) approval and Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission (IWWC) approval have been obtained. IWWC also sent the project for review by the Consulting Town Engineer, whose concerns have been satisfied. Mr. Parsons commented that the entire property is in the Lake Protection Overlay District, and the proposed house will be 88 feet from the lake, which is roughly ten feet further than the existing house. He noted that alternative configurations were considered, but decided against them based on disturbance in the Lake Protection Overlay District. Mr. Parsons pointed out the erosion control measures and construction entrance on the plans. He also noted the reduction in impervious surface area, primarily driven by replacing an existing parking area with a permeable stone surface.
