Burney was working with Town Counsel on the preparation of a 40B workshop. Scenic Road Construction at 360 Flat Hill Road - Susan Whalen, an abutter to the site, contacted A. Burney and informed him that the applicant started reconstructing the ends of the stone walls. It was her opinion that the stone wall had not met the expectations of the Board’s Scenic Road Decision and that the wall was too constructed/planned as compared to the typical stone walls in Lunenburg. She also voiced concern as to the driveway width. A. Burney was to confirm that the width was appropriate. M. Allison informed the Board that he was an abutter and it was also his opinion that the wall did not fit the character of a stone wall. He went on to state that the opening was in excess of thirty (30) feet. The Scenic Road Plan ind icated twenty-four (24). Susan Whalen, 377 Flat Hill Road - Agreed with M. Allison that the reconstruction did not reflect the existing style of the wall. If there were extra stones left over, she inquired as to how they would be used. It was also noted that Unitil had a pole petition in front of the Select Board to locate a new pole in fr ont of Lot 2; that petition was withdrawn. A. Burney expected the applicant would return to the Board to realign the lot lines to use the existing pole for electricity to Lots 2 and 3. S. Whalen inquired as to the drainage on Lot 4. A. Burney spoke to the builder; none of the Cultec Chambers had been installed. She also noted that the applicant was violating the construction hours. A. Burney would view the site and follow up on the abutter’s concerns.
