Project Description 1. a. Project Location (use maps and plans to identify the location of the area subject to this request): Sullivan Road West Yarmouth Street Address City/Town 47/51 Lot # 20 Assessors Map/Plat Number Parcel/Lot Number b. Area Description (use additional paper, if necessary): From the pond edge to the front of the house is NHESP Priority Habitat of Rare Species. The property on the water side consists primarily of native Carex pensylvanica sedge nearer to the back of the house and moss and Gaultheria procumbens towards the water. Native vegetation lines the border between the cleared yard area and the water, and clusters of native vegetation line both sides of the property (appears to be Clethra and perhaps native Azalea), extending into the yard in irregular clumps. Four leyland cypress (2 per border) were added in recent years to use as screening. A wooden walkway was built perhaps in the 1980's by the current owner's now deceased parents that traverses the area between the deck and the water's edge. The owner's parents also planted three Pinus strobus to the NE of the house. The pines create nearly complete shade in the sideyard. c. Plan and/or Map Reference(s): Landscape Plan for Chris Meimaris Title 615 C L► V"51'2 MA P � (� 1-1 Z -7,,a ' Title 4-18-19 Date 11-1I- I Date RK C`, b PLC1 PLANA R -P ~ L6T__U2L 10-3cC Title Date 2. a. Work Description (use additional paper and/or provide plan(s) of work, if necessary): The owner is desirous of screening from her neighbor to the NE for privacy and to block off a view of garbage cans and clutter. She would also like a flat, safe area away from the wooden sidewall of the house and any shrubs or trees to safely grill food. To avoid disturbance of native trees, shrubs, and groundcovers, the areas into which screening trees/shrubs could go are very limited. There is only one area that is accessible to the deck and the back sliding doors of the house for the grilling area. This plan seeks to find the best, least disruptive way to solve these three issues (screening, safe grilling and clutter screening) as well as to deliniate the mossy area from the sedge area with a low cultivar of a native plant (as shown on plan of 4/18/19. In order to create a modicum of order in the back yard, the plan is to remove the sedge and rough grass and replace it with Colonial/Heritage seed. About 4' off the NE edge of the back of the house is a drop in grade that is uncomfortable to traverse. The owner would like to smooth that drop and the back area slightly for easier passage around the house. The plan submitted with this application shows the approximate locations of screening trees and shrubs that were pre- determined on the land before being drawn to assure that their placement would be appropriate. The owner would like to remove the pines to allow for light, and thus allow for a viburnum hedge to screen the garbage/clutter of the neighbor but understands that likely only one removal would be allowed, and would choose the pine closest to the NE lot line for removal. The grilling area is currently used as a path by visitors and needs to be safe for grilling and traffic so the plan is to create a slightly raised area filled with crushed native stone (for drainage) to solve the two issues. wpaforml doc Page 2 of 4 Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Resource Protection - Wetlands Yarmouth City/Town WPA Form 1- Request for Determination of Applicability Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act M.G.L. c. 131, §40 Town of Yarmouth Wetland By -Law, Chapter 143 C.
