Conservation District. Case #25b-2026.

Chair Crapo opens the first application and a reminder that this is a continuation from the
previous month. The hearing was left open so that the abutters could respond. Last month the
applicant and his team presented. Chair asked Attorney Tim Phoenix for a recap and talk about
the landscaping.

Attorney Tim Phoenix with Mike and Amy Garrepy, Marc Jacobs, Alex Ross and the owners,
the Darragh family.

Member Driscoll states that he was not present the month before but he watched the livestream,
although he could not see what they were pointing at, he has a good understanding to proceed
sitting on this case.

Attorney Phoenix, not repeat but would like a chance to respond after the abutters. He points out
that there was a letter by SELT and submission today the plantings along the driveway, ways
propose beauty and buffer.

Open Public Hearing.

Chair Crapo stated he received today a lengthy letter by Victory, it will take a few minutes to
read through.

Jenny Sideris 100 Brackett Rd, said that she has been in Rye 14 months, concern water, low
lying area, land slopes and worried about water, she shares concerns with RCC prefers the

driveway stay unpaved, her opinion make it not slope toward her house.

Chair Crapo points out that gravel is same as pavement it does not let the water filtrate, it is
impermeable, when analysis is done same as asphalt.

Evan Sideris 100 Brackett Rd., raised the paving concern.

Mrs. Sideris stated concern with equipment area too wet.

BOA DRAFT meeting September 2, 2026

Chair Crapo points out planting plan, asks the Sideris where their septic is located.

Mr. & Mrs. Sideris walk forward and show the board.

Victory Marvin, 50 Brackett Road apologized for the lengthy email sent today, she tried sending
last week did not go through. She does not oppose a home on the lot concern there are a lot of
variances and special exception. She goes through her letter, she wants more information how

water will flow, stated the RCC wants a smaller home.

Chair Crapo said there will be time for the questions, we have wet land, comments about reading
through her email.

Ms. Marvin said she has seen the property flood, sees ledge wants more information on field
delineation, stormwater or drainage analysis and asks about NHDES approval. Her gut instinct,
trouble, not send water on her property. She states, we as abutters want more information.
Chair Crapo asked about septic approvals from NHDES.

Michael Thiel, 34 Brackett Rd says he knows the property and hands out outline for the record.
Gail Richard, 34 Brackett Road hands out the outline.

Mr. Thiel received RCC letter, received SELT letter.

~ Ms. Richard hands out something to the board.

Mr. Thiel wants to set the context.

Chair Crapo asks him to keep it tied to zoning.

Mr. Thiel talked about the 100’ buffer, protecting habitat and wildlife.

Ms. Richard hands out more maps and pictures of habitat.

Mr. Thiel says protection priority zone, his point is it is a highly sensitive area. One of his hand
outs by Ms. Richard is a map he downloaded from a hunting app, lots of woodland.

Chair Crapo asks Mr. Thiel to stick to zoning.

BOA DRAFT meeting September 2, 2026

Mr. Thiel has pictures of animals traveling that area and Ms. Richard hands out another habitat
map from the hunting app.

Chari Crapo stated that the relief they are asking for is the 100’ buffer per Berry’s Brook but that
they felt that the Parson’s Creek line was also part of the site, down the middle.

Mr. Thiel continues to go over the hunting maps that the Board was handed.

Chair Crapo points out that this is not raw land, there were structures, house on the lot and Mr.
Thiel’s analysis is different this lot has a prior history of structures and use.

Mr. Thile hands out survey of 2005, Ms. Richard hands it out and he talked about the easement
and he has filed in court to go back to the original easement, and he rests his case.

John Walsh 60 Brackett Rd., concerns agree with Ms. Marvin.

Attorney Phoenix in his exhibit points out a couple of areas, he comments that the email was just
submitted today and says that the applicants have to comply with the Town and submit things in
a timely manner for the Board to review and wants the Board to know that in this case abutters
are handing things out today and emails, letters sent in within the past 2 days. It is hard to
respond especially when this case was heard last month and the abutters had a month to respond
and they waited until the last minute. As to Mr. Thiel’s law suite and the 2009 survey, that is a
private matter, not before this board.

Chair Crapo said in light of fact and engineering team work the “snake version” of the right of
way, in the event the ROW went back to old version it would go right through middle of the
property and the proposed house. They could continue the application. This application before
them is based on the “snake” ROW curving around version easement.

Attorney Phoenix says the easement is not before this board, case law, it is a private matter, and
disputes are not before this board. He is appalled that Mr. Thiel claims it is not a road it is an
easement.

Mike Garrepy, applicant, talked about the agreement of the easement and if the ROW to change
then they would come back to this board.

Member Driscoll acknowledged the dispute of the location of the easement and will take that
into consideration.

BOA DRAFT meeting September 2, 2026

Attorney Phoenix says there is only 1 easement, moved for intent to build house. Balancing
between people’s rights and right to develop on the property, there was activity on this lot and a
gravel driveway. That lot is mowed today and acknowledges future use and that they would
agree to limit fertilizers. He points out Mr. Thiel’s home is right on Berry Brook and he wants to
stop anyone else from asking for relief for wetlands. He agrees there are maps, Town Maps and
he also points out to the Board that their team has experts and they are only asking for 3
variances and 1 special exception. The closest structure will be 75’ from wetland and as for
future septic permit, own requirements there will be a stormwater management plan and it is an
ongoing process.

Chair Crapo stated the building inspector sent an email that they have no objection to house, an
as-built will be required and NHDES permits will be needed.

Attorney Phoenix commented on RCC letter and commented on Ms. Marvin’s letter. The
current gravel drive is impervious, remain impervious. The applicant is a developer and this is
going to be his home and acknowledge SELT wants protection as well.

Alex Ross, Ross Engineering wants to clarify the discussion on the ROW. As a surveyor he
respected the easement and worked around it and he shows the board an aerial view of the
property to show the area where mowed and open land and the existing driveway.

Chair Crapo noted that their application does have the more restrictive 100’ buffer

Member Blouin asked how much water off set.

Mr. Ross said it is a multi-staged process when file building permit, there will be silt socks,
erosion control measures and stormwater and state permits. Only NHDES permit is septic.

Member Blouin commented on abutters concerns with water.
Mr. Ross said that is explained and addressed in the watershed plan.

Member Driscoll asked if AOS Septic with leachfield for 4 bedroom how design change if house
were 2 or 3 bedroom.

Mr. Ross said the septic could change, AOS is pretreatment allows leachfield to be smaller.

Member Driscoll points out leachfield 20’ long asks the width and asks if a 2 or 3 bedroom home
would be different size than a 4 bedroom home.

BOA DRAFT meeting September 2, 2026

Mr. Ross says the length would remain 20’ long and width is 10’. If 3 bedrooms, the width
remain the same, length change minimal.

Chair Crapo asked if any rain gardens in the stormwater management plan, allow room for them.

Mr. Ross talked about the impact plan, infiltration trench around the house and a foundation
drain.

Mr. Jacobs’ comments.

Member Piela asks if cut back uphill of easement then water will wash across easement, losing
1’ elevation.

Mr. Ross said it would go into infiltration.

Discussion

Mr. Jacobs says to the board to keep in mind, drainage clean, conventional wisdom more buffer.
Member Driscoll asked about the foundation drain.

Mr. Ross said there is a walk out, slab on grade, infiltration trench, pipe tie in both.

Member Driscoll commented on slab 8’ grade, run pipe low?

Mr. Ross said pipe about 9.5’

Mr. Jacob’s said field has been flagged by the SLAM model, Sea Level Rise scenarios and the
stream is manmade.

Chair to Ms. Marvin if she got her answers and Ms. Marvin did not raise any more questions.
Mr. Walsh said he fought with FEMA.

Chair Crapo stated this applicant has applied the more restrictive buffers in their application.
Close public.

Member Piela wants peer review of engineering, given the sensitivity.

BOA DRAFT meeting September 2, 2026

Chair Crapo said peer review not change their application, they applied the more restrictive 100”
buffer and asks guidance what to do.

Member Blouin says everyone is concerned about water and water movement.

Member Piela said he is stuck with the no fair and substantial relationship test. Motion to
continue the application.

Applicant asks for a continuance to the November meeting.
