Saugus denies parking lot - Itemlive

SAUGUS — At its meeting on Wednesday, the Conservation Commission voted to deny an order of conditions for 15 Collins Ave., a parking lot near Essex Landing.

The lot, which was being used for construction vehicles, was denied an order of conditions via a motion by Conservation Officer Francis McKinnon.

The project, under the new Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) filing #67-1132, would have sought to take the 100-foot buffer zone of the bordering vegetative wetland (BVW), and change it into a parking lot.

However, in the original filing, DEP filing #67-1036, this area was not to be a parking lot — it was designated as stormwater area, to be loamed and seeded.

“It was never okay to be a paved parking lot. That takes the 100-foot buffer zone to the BVW,” read Clerk Stephanie Puracchio from the denial.

The motion to deny the order of conditions was approved unanimously by the commission.
