5. Application requesting Special Exception before the Council for Review and Action:
2024-09-029 TOWN OF NEW SHOREHAM -- To expand the existing stone revetment system further up the slope of the town’s existing landfill to an elevation of 18.0 ft. This portion of the slope is currently grass covered. This extent and height of revetment was originally approved by CRMC per Assent 2016-02-090 which included a special exception. Due to funding issues the Town was not able to complete the entire revetment project and only constructed the toe portion of the revetment located along the base of the slope which extends up to about elevation 10.0 ft. A CRMC Assent modification was obtained to reflect this work scope change. The intent of this project is to expand the stone revetment to the limits originally approved by CRMC. The project requires a Special Exception pursuant to RICRMP 650-RICR-20-00-1 (red book) Section § 1.3.1.G.3.a, which prohibits the construction of structural shoreline protection bordering Type 1 waters. Located at plat 2, lots 39, 40, 48-1; 14 West Beach Road, New Shoreham, RI.
