Conservation Commission,
This letter is a response to the last meeting regarding 88/100 Mill Lane.
Many ways have been suggested to circumvent the mandated setbacks
for pastures and fencing.
They’re trying to carve out as much usable land as possible.
Berms, contouring the land, relocating compost storage and french drains
have all been proposed to minimize the runoff of pollutants into sensitive
wetlands, streams and ponds.
Especially since the ponds have been polluted in the past.
I have not seen any proposals about how to deal with a problem, if and
when it occurs.
How much pollution is acceptable?
Who would be responsible?
How would you correct the problem?
Would farming and raising livestock be suspended?
Would governmental intervention be involved?
Who would pay for the cleanup?
I believe that at least some of these concerns should be addressed.
Truly,
William Tylec
Commercial enterprise in a scenic, seaside, residentially
zoned area with sensitive ecological issues.
Increased traffic flow:
Seasonal Roadside Farm Market
Creamery
Sale of goats
Curiosity factor. " lets go see the goats"
At one end of Mill Ln, one of the most dangerous intersections
in the country. Route 6A, Willow and Mill Lane
The other a single lane bridge
Very narrow roads, about the size of your average driveway.
Drawing In Predators:
Donkeys and fences to protect the goats. What about the rest
of the homeowners' pets.
Chain Link Fences in an area where only stone walls and split rail
fences were previously allowed
Farms draw in rats and other rodents
Disruption of a truly scenic area
Runoff from animal waste, pesticides and fertilizers into sensitive
ecological areas.
Historical Heritage:
What use to be fields, farms and forests have become building
lots, zoning restrictions and construction codes.
