You will see a wonderfully green lawn which I am using to mock up the project/problem. The green grass slope turned into compacted dirt and then moss faces the driveway and the living fence at the lot line across the drive as #8. It is also not seen by #I 1 because of the immediate plantings as well as those that will be planted in front of the wall in line with the wall on the other side of the granite steps. The slope has now been striped of all moss, back filled with dirt and over -seeded. However, the slope drainage has not begun. The retaining/drainage wall will raise the slope about 2'-3' which should allow good drainage through the new wall and pseudo -French drain graveled ditch. The drainage became a costly issue especially because we discovered slightly leaking irrigation pipes and at least two (2) sprinkler heads which are being replaced. This was no doubt why the area turn to moss in the corner and further up the slope. If the project isn't reviewed and decided on until after the Summer of 2022 (if approved) the drainage problem will continue even after the irrigation system is fixed. With the Winter precluding digging and further over -seeding and finding workers to build the wall will mean it will not be fixed until after the thaw of 2023. The cost to the homeowner will increase exponentially. As you will see in the mock ups on the following pages: 1. The new wall will match the dimensions/materials/presentation of the existing wall on the other side of the granite steps, 2. The new wall will not be seen by any abutter: • The front of the wall will be planted with flowers (roses and greens added in the photo) • The lot line is planted with a continuous living privacy fence so #20 and #19 will never see the wall • No abutter will ever see the retaining wall itself as there are mature plantings at the corner; the wall will be hidden from autos, buses or truck driving up Trophy to Setucket and completely invisible to those driving from Setucket to Trophy (see mock ups) • A person in an automobile would have to come halfway up my driveway to be presented with flowers in front of the wall and maybe green grass above. Pm including photos and diagrams as backup and to ensure your understanding. If you have questions or need more information, please do not hesitate to call my cell (508) 364-4910. _ Thank you, Judie Hunter 14 Trophy Lane Yarmouth Port, MA 02675 APPROVED RECEIVED JUL 2 2 2022 YARMOUTH JUL 2 2 2022 X10 YAfiNtuU-i s-. v f KINGS HIGHWAY Page 2 ECEIVED j JUL 2 2 2022 YARNIOU r vinin�e uini. 4dith Ann Hunter & Yolanda YPort 02675 JUL 2 2 2022 YARMOUTH W _ :.=wry-. •� ~ W Existing wall (blue arrow) is 3' left side; decreases to 2'at right side. and is approximately 5.5' long; it is a PA dry stack colors are mostly grey, blue and shades of red; the black stones are a product of the Town's water staining the walls through the irrigation system.

Pace 3 Judith Ann Hunter & Yolanda Hunter Trust 14 Trophy Ln, YPort 02675 This hill flattens out so fully that there is never any real drainage. The front lawn faces Trophy Lane but because of the evergreen plantings it is hard to see the entire first floor of the house never mind inside the driveway. The lawn on the right side hoping for a drainage wall, faces the driveway and the Hamilton's house at #8. The house is surrounded by a living fence of arborvitaes at the lot line so the wall again cannot be seen at #8, 11, 19 or 20 Trophy Lane.
