Hi Kimberly,
We also have serious concerns with the 11 arborvitaes they are proposing next to their driveway as this
along with the seven arborvitaes at the patio will completely wipe out our view of the lake.
We also do not believe they are giving enough buffer from the 10' wide deed path - they have installed a
fence and plantings directly in the deed path.

Hi Kimberly,
Sorry for the last minute email but we just received the Abutter Notification Letter regarding the 536
Shootflying Hill Road improvements up against Wequaquet Lake.
We generally dont take exception to the paver patio however we do have two (2) concerns with the
planting.
First the home owner installed six or so large green giant arborvitaes to screen the patio from the
road. We total get the intent but green giant arborvitaes grow 3 to 5 feet per year and can max out at
60'. This will dramatically impact the view of lake from our property.

Second, we along with a few other homes have Deeded rights to a ten foot wide path from the road to
the lake. This is for access to the lake, however the home owner has installed a planting bed across the
entire edge of the lake.
Attached are some photos for your reference.
Thanks,
