Okay, here it goes....I have one of those lurkers for approx. 3yrs. now, this will be my first posting.
Is there anyone out there that can clarify this new bill?
1) I know it seems as of 4/1/08 you will not be able to do any building or excavation of any sort within 50ft of the shoreline, correct me if I am wrong.
2) What will be the minimum footage for a foundation from the shoreline after this bill goes into effect?
3) We have a beach right now that is not perched and has been on the shorefront for at least 40yrs. that we know of (we purchased the property back in 10/06.) It is not flat, but a little slope to it w/ what seems like railroad ties behind it that go into the ground approx. 2ft. The beach area is approx. (25'L x 12'W). We would like to remove the railroad ties and build a retaining wall in it's place. Is this possible? Your thoughts please. It is not Lake Winni, but 15 min. from Alton Bay.
4) If we were to have a site plan done and have a foundation poured and then capped before 4/1/08, but not really begin construction until 10/1/08, would we be okay? We would have approx. 18 months for construction completion.
Any and all knowledge would be helpful, looking forward to hearing from you.
