1. Approval of Minutes
The minutes of the April 22, 2019 meeting were approved as submitted.
2. Referral—22 Winged Foot Drive, Wetlands and Watercourses Permit
Stephen Coleman and property owner, Jonathan Weinberg presented the proposal to fill
and level the rear yard within the 100-foot buffer and adjacent to the Leatherstocking
Trail Conservation Area. The proposal would involve the installation of a 4-foot high
retaining wall constructed of stacked concrete blocks. Two trees would be removed, one
that is dead and a second in very poor condition as a result of impacts from previous
work on the property. The proposal includes the planting of native shrubs on either side
of the retaining wall.
CZMC found the proposal to be consistent with the policies in the Local Waterfront
Revitalization Program (LWRP), however, there are some concerns about any potential
visual impact of the project will have on the views from the Leatherstocking trail. To
reduce this potential impact, CZMC requests that 2 oak or maple trees be planted as
replacements, that the wall be constructed of a material with a natural stone color and that
the proposed screening include some native evergreens if possible. In addition, the

that the material is clean.
3. Old Business
No old business to discuss.
4. New Business
No new business to discuss.
The meeting was adjourned at 8:10 p.m.
