1. Approval of Minutes
The minutes of the November 25, 2013 meeting were approved as amended.
2. Referrals:
a. 106 Premium Point—Wetlands and Watercourses Permit
Jordan Wilkinson of Daniel S. Natchez Associates presented the proposal to
reconstruct the patio, relocate a swimming pool, construct a greenhouse and install a
stormwater system at 106 Premium Point.
CZMC found the proposal to be consistent with the policies in the Local Waterfront
Revitalization Plan. However, CZMC suggests that where projects are located next to
large water bodies, and flood control is not a concern, that the applicant be required to
provide water quality treatment of stormwater. While infiltrators are useful for the
removal of sediment and organic material, as long as the proposal is consistent with

the DEC stormwater manual, overflows and roof leaders should be piped underground
to seawalls and outfalls to avoid picking up lawn fertilizers and sediment. In addition,
the applicant agreed that all outdoor lighting installed would be low-level, shielded
and directed inward from Long Island Sound so as to not cause light pollution or
become a nuisance to navigation.
b. 7 Guion Lane
Architect Gregory Lewis presented the proposal for additions and renovations to the
house at 7 Guion Lane.
CZMC found the proposal to be consistent with the policies in the Local Waterfront
Revitalization Plan. However, CZMC suggests that where projects are located next to

the DEC stormwater manual, overflows and roof leaders should be piped underground
to seawalls and outfalls to avoid picking up lawn fertilizers and sediment. In addition,
the applicant agreed to remove wisteria from the landscape plan because it is an
aggressive and invasive plant.
