124 Memorial Drive Tennis Court Replication
At a glance
- What: wetland replication following a tennis court built without a permit at 124 Memorial Drive.
- Where it stands: the replication area has been prepped and was to be planted; a monitoring report is expected in spring on what survived the winter.
- Change approved informally on 2026-10-20: because reaching the southern (blue) replication section would mean crossing the neighbor's land and removing mature trees, the owner proposes enhancing the green section along the wetland edge instead, about the same square footage. It currently holds rocks, concrete, debris and invasives (tree of heaven, multiflora rose, loosestrife). Plan: hand pulling and cut-and-dab herbicide on tree of heaven this fall, then planting in spring. Commissioners said this was fine; staff will confirm the fall work was done in time.
