Public Hearing – Thursday, October 30, 2025 – Conservation Commission

Public Hearing
Thursday, October 30 at 9AM
Chester Town Hall, COA Room in the basement

The Conservation Commission will meet at the physical location, 66 Crane Avenue, to discuss plan revisions submitted on behalf of Heidi and Joeseph Courture by Salvini Associates L.L.C., DEP # 131-0075.

The issuing authority will first make a determination whether the requested change is great enough to warrant the filing of a new Notice of Intent or whether it is of a relatively minor nature and can be considered as an amendment to the original Final Order of Conditions. In making this determination, the issuing authority will consider such factors as whether the purpose of the project has changed, whether the scope of the project has increased, whether the project meets relevant performance standards, and whether the potential for adverse impacts to the protected statutory interests will be increased and to inform the public that the request for amendment to the Order of Conditions will be considered by the commission at this public hearing.

**All public inquiries must be submitted in writing either by certified mail or via email within ten business days of the posted public meeting date with any questions/concerns and/or aggrievances by/to any/the amendments to the Order; or other parties given appeal rights in 310 CMR 10.07, may, within ten days of issuance, request that the Department review the changes made to the Final Order of Conditions. The issues under appeal will be limited to those issues subject to the amendment(s) or the change(s) made in the Final Order of Conditions. Until there is a final resolution no work may continue on those portions of the project not
permitted under the Final Order of Conditions but only permitted by the amendment(s) which has been appealed.

In addition, the applicant must follow the requirements of abutter notification as if filing a Notice of Intent as described in the Act.
