Mr. Turner, the landscape architect, explained the Xeriscape landscaping has little grass which requires very little water. Irrigation will run along the driveway with the rest of the woods being kept in their natural state. Everyone recognizes the value of protecting and maintaining those trees. Mr. Ince advised the members of the Planning Board that this project received Community Appearance Board approval for the Xeriscape Landscaping on April 28, 1988. Mr. McNally is aware of the vegetation; therefore, the house is situated to maintain as much of the vegetation as possible. Following discussion, MOTION was made by MR. WALDMAN/MR. FOX to approve plans as submitted for the McNally Single Family Residence. All members were in favor of the motion.
