Engineer David Davignon of Schneider, Davignon & Leone, Inc., came before the Mattapoisett Conservation Commission on Monday night, requesting an Amended Order of Conditions.
After acknowledging the sacrifices made on this date in 2001, which was preceded by the Pledge of Allegiance, Davignon explained to the commissioners the nature of the request.
While driving pilings into the substrate at 35 Mattapoisett Neck Road for a fixed pier owned by David and Lois Monteiro, the construction had to be halted due to the impenetrable presence of ledge.
Davignon said that attempts were made, using various types of equipment to sufficiently reach the necessary depth for the pilings to become secure. Those efforts failed. On Monday, he went before the board with a new plan of record that reduced the length of the pier and to use substituted materials for a portion of the fixed pier with a float.
After careful consideration, the commissioners agreed to the change, granting the amendment and the new plan of record.
Also requesting an Amended Order of Conditions was Andy Stackpole of Field Engineering for Rose and Mark Robert, 17 Ned’s Point Road, for the reconfiguration of a planned, inground pool and pool house.
Stackpole explained that the pool would be repositioned on the site for safety reasons and that a sewer line to the pool house for sanitary systems was being abandoned. The requested amendment was granted, along with a new plan of record.
The next meeting of the Mattapoisett Conservation Commission is scheduled for Monday, September 25, at 6:30 pm.
