Mark Gronberg responded that it would be replaced with a more restricted outlet which would allow for regulation of the outflow. Ann McCort asked if the possible widening of Watertown Road would impact this project. Chair Schroeder responded that nothing definite has been proposed so it was difficult to project what would happen regarding the setbacks of the proposed lots. Dick Putnam stated that they would not risk developing these parcels if it appeared that the Highway 12 Corridor was going to be along Watertown Road. He commented they expect the other agency approvals to be through within a couple of weeks and they would like to begin the grading on the property as soon as possible.
