Referral—668 Forest Avenue Benedict Salanitro presented the proposal to demolish the existing house at 668 Forest Avenue and construct a new single-family home. The project is before the Town of Mamaroneck Planning Board for Residential Site Plan approval. The proposal includes the removal of rock and several mature trees as well as the installation of three 4x6 drywells. The applicant is proposing to plant three street trees in lieu of planting replacement trees on the property. CZMC found the proposal to be consistent with the policies in the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP). 3. Referral—85 Colonial Avenue Stephen Anderson presented the proposal to demolish the existing house at 85 Colonial Avenue and construct a new single-family home. The project is before the Town of Mamaroneck Planning Board for Subdivision and Residential Site Plan approval. Page 1 of 2 The proposal includes the installation of a stormwater system in the front yard and porous pavement at the bottom of the driveway to prevent icing conditions in the roadway. No trees are to be removed (there are no trees on the property) and the landscaping plan indicates there will be 2 dogwood trees, one cherry tree and two street trees planted. CZMC found the proposal to be consistent with the policies in the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) but had a few comments and concerns with the project. • The landscape plan should indicate the species of street trees being proposed. • A fence should be installed along the eastern property line to protect the tree on the neighbor's lawn and prevent workers from using this area to access the rear of the site. If this area is used as a construction access, the root zone of the tree will be compacted and the tree will suffer. • CZMC members expressed concerns about the safety of children walking to school with the lack of sidewalks and presence of construction vehicles and additional cars parked on the street. 4. Old Business No old business to discuss. 5. New Business No new business to discuss. The meeting was adjourned at 8:25 p.m. Page 2 of 2
