The decision means the proposed development did not receive approval for its regulated activities under the town’s wetlands rules. Commissioners cited conflicting information about whether an affected wetland depends mainly on groundwater or surface runoff, and said the applicant had not shown that wetland functions would be protected. The commission also approved a separate Blackberry Woods proposal, released a construction bond for 106 Stonebridge Court, and determined that Kelly’s Farm’s proposed event venue did not require a wetlands application.
