At a glance

Based on auto-generated captions plus the minutes; names and details may be misheard.

  • What: staff enforcement order CC-EO-2026-003 over an unpermitted covered porch (the captions say "carport" once) built within the 30-ft buffer to Delany Brook (captioned "Lenny Brook") at 11 Holden Street.
  • Where it stands: the Commission ratified the staff order 3-0 on 2026-08-24.
  • Next: the owner must provide an as-built plan showing the structure relative to the buffer zones.

Background

  • The enforcement order followed a complaint; staff measured on site and found the structure within the 30-ft buffer.
  • Staff issue orders themselves when something must be addressed quickly and the Commission ratifies them at the next meeting.
