M. O'REILLY AND ASSOCIATES, INC. respectfully requests an Amendment to the Order of Conditions for this project due to the changes made to the pathway layout from the approved plan of record. The changes to the plan include the following: • The elevated Stairway and Landing did not obtain the necessary variances from the Yarmouth Zoning Board of Appeals, since the stairway was viewed as a structure and relief was needed for the 12-foot wide panhandle. • An At -Grade Pathway is now proposed down the slope and onto the Pond. The pathway will include a single handrail. The handrail will consist of a 44 post and 2x4 rail. • The pathway at the bottom of the slope will still be re -aligned with the panhandle. The width of the pathway to the Pond will remain the same as the current pathway. As outlined in the original Notice of Intent, the homeowner is looking to gain access to the Pond and the existing footpath is becoming too much of a safety concern. The elevated stairway and landing provided the best access as it was both safe and resulted in minimal impact on the slope. The homeowner is still looking to provide a more secure pathway to the Pond. The proposal now calls for the pathway to be improved with at -grade timber steps. The steps will be 4-feet wide, like the previous stairway, and will be dug into the ground. Gravel is being added to each step to assist in drainage and mitigation of scour. No trees will need to be removed for the at grade pathway. Attached for your use is the revised Proposed Site Plan -Pathway & Steps, revised December 30, 2025. 1573 MAIN STREET, P.O.
