WETLAND /STORMWATER/LDP HEARINGS: 
Hearings will be taken in order 
Stormwater Notice of Intent (SMP- 180-19 & LDP 288-19) Patricia Cohen. 2 Randolph Street (Map 63 
Lot 3). For proposed plans to construct a single-family home including grading, utilities and installation of a 
stormwater management system. 
Attorney Richard Staiti and Eric Dias of Strongpoint Engineering presented the following: 
Requires zoning approval. 
I am concerned that the driveway, as graded will create long-term drainage issues both onsite and to abutters north of 
the property. Future homeowners will demand that the Town prevent Randolph Street runoff from entering the 
driveway. However, the Town of Canton, MA trigineering Division, Grading Permit states, 
"in all new dwellings the bottom of the cellar floor or basement must be at least twelve inches above the maximum 
ground water table. The driveway for any dwelling with a garage under or a garage attached shall be so constructed 
that street surface water is prevented from flowing onto the driveway and into the garage. Provision shall be made for 
the disposal of all water which may collect within the approach to the garage, in the absence of any other acceptable 
alternative the garage floor shall be a minimum of six inches higher than the centerline elevation of the street. Without 
exception the lot shall be graded in a manner which sheds water away from the foundation and prevents the 
accumulation of any standing tar trapped water".
