200 Main St

RDA request for Casper-315 Main St- Osterville
Dear Barnstable Conservation Commissioners:
The residence at 215 Bridge St Osterville has an attached easement for access to the waterway and is
situated within a flood plain above a coastal bank looking east to the intercoastal entrance to West Bay with a vista
opportunity of the ramp and passing boats. The coastal bank is stable and vegetated with Black Cherry, Sassafras,
Black Oak, Pitch Pine, Scrub Oak, Poison Ivy, Huckleberry, Beech, American Holly, Bayberry, Greenbrier, Sumac,
Sweet Fern, Inkberry. Along with the obligate plants of Spartina alternifolia, spartina patens, Black Grass, Beach
Lavender. Some invasive species; namely Oriental Bittersweet, Bush Honeysuckle, Multiflora Rose, and Autumn
Olive are proximate and within the herbaceous plants that stabilize this easement strip. Rosa rugosa makes up a
majority of the slightly sloping vegetated area, but oriental bittersweet threatens to challenge the vegetative species
ratio. A fence along the 201 Bridge St (south side) boundary forms the northern edge of the easement and the asphalt
pavement of the driveway to #227 and #229 Bridges St forms the southern border.
The landscape concept is to remove the invasive species, and create a path through the rosa rugosa, replanting
removed areas of the curvy path (sinuses) with native (mostly herbaceous) plants and install a sitting area where
owners can enjoy view. Although the sitting area is located between the 50’and 100’, the enhanement of invasive
removal will be done, by hand, to the Top of Coastal Bank. The path is made of coarse, beach compatible, sand, and
the surface of the sitting area will be a loose amalgamation of bluestone set in the shape on the plan. A firepit made of
concrete segmental blocks shall be installed as the sitting areas center, and 4 surrounding chairs will be permanently
installed.
Adjacent to the coastal bank is this upland area subject to flooding, and within the flood plain. Also, the area is
within a V-zone. No movable strucures shall be installed. All materials are denser than water, and are “at-grade”
and cannot float and do not impede tidal surges. The owners wish to prune the upland of this area and a portion of this
area which is overgrown or invasive. It is the intention to prune only Rosa rugosa in this area; there are no trees.
Since all work performed is pruning (minor pruning; being no altering or repairing with significance), these
tasks are what is usually requested by new homeowners, and that work has a net negative effect on the 8 interests of
the act, we request that the Conservation Commission votes to allow this optimistic projects to go forward. The
resulting project would be harmless to conservation interests and professional pruning is a means to providing
flourishing growth. We suggest that a yearly maintenance schedule be outlined using photographs and a report. In
addition, for excellent stewardship, the owner requests to prune during the optimum season whether early spring or
late fall, according to regulation.

Priority Habitat includes habitat for state-listed plants and strictly upland species not protected by the Wetlands Protection Act.
MESA projects may not be segmented (321 CMR 10.16). The applicant must disclose full development plans even if such plans are
not required as part of the Notice of Intent process.

Step 2/Number of Activities: Identify the number of each type of activity.
Step 3/Individual Activity Fee: Identify each activity fee from the six project categories listed in the instructions.
Step 4/Subtotal Activity Fee: Multiply the number of activities (identified in Step 2) times the fee per category
(identified in Step 3) to reach a subtotal fee amount. Note: If any of these activities are in a Riverfront Area in
addition to another Resource Area or the Buffer Zone, the fee per activity should be multiplied by 1.5 and then
added to the subtotal amount.
Step 5/Total Project Fee: Determine the total project fee by adding the subtotal amounts from Step 4.
Step 6/Fee Payments: To calculate the state share of the fee, divide the total fee in half and subtract $12.50. To
