Public Hearing, Definitive Subdivision Plan — 'Randall Road Extension' Applicant: Mark G. Hall, 0 Randall Road & 25 Sprincivale Road Jack McQuilkin, P.E., P.L.S. was present on behalf of the application. Mr. McQuilkin described the existing condition of the site and the proposed project. He explained that the Applicant is proposing to extend Randall Road and all existing utilities by approximately 200 feet in order to provide frontage for three new lots. A fourth lot, which has a house on it, will be modified in order to give frontage to one of the Randall Road lots. He noted that the turn -around area at the end of the existing paved road will be removed, and the newly extended road will be capped with a cul-de-sac bulb. The stormwater treatment train will include installation of cultec infiltration chambers connected to the downspouts on each new lot, as well as deep sump catch basins in the road that are tied into a detention pond on Lot 1. Runoff will then flow through a 12" HDPE culvert from the detention pond to forebay and water quality swales on Lot 2 and then into the pocket wetland. Additional road runoff will be treated via Filterra tree box systems in the right-of-way that discharge directly into the pocket wetland on Lot 2. Mr. McQuilkin mentioned that the Commission previously approved a Preliminary Subdivision Plan for this project, and that the Conservation Commission has granted an Order of Resource Area Delineation (ORAD) for the wetlands delineation but still needs to issue an Order of Conditions for the project. He noted that the Conservation Commission site walk is scheduled for the next day. Page 1 1
