243 Main St - Notice of Violation

The property was partially cleared and they received a notice of violation because it was within 200 ft of the assabet river. The clearing was all knotweed on a flat area and was historically  kept mowed. I let them know that this type of clearing may be allowed but they do need permission and to ask next time.

6 riverbank rd - potential notice of violation?

I need assistance from the Commission on whether or not this property is a violation. They cleared area outside of our jurisdiction but it has caused stormwater issues for neighbors. A tree was also removed within 175 ft of river.
