Hearing Summary: 

The Superseding Orders of Conditions issued by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection on 12/29/2016 for Lot 1/A and Lot 2/B expired on 12/29/2019. The project sites are therefore currently only permitted under the local Arlington Wetlands Protection Bylaw, and not the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act. These Notices of Intent are filed under the Wetlands Protection Act only. The Lot 1/A project proposes to remove an existing impervious driveway and construct a house, partially within the 100-ft Wetlands Buffer. The Lot 2/B project proposes to demolish an existing house and construct a new house, partially within the 100-ft Wetlands Buffer.
