SCITUATE — Design Review Committee tables 20 Country Way building recommendation pending Planning Board review. The committee reviewed new drawings for the mixed-height residential project at 20 Country Way on March 31, recommending a lift at the front porch to meet ADA accessibility requirements after the building's elevation for flood zone compliance eliminated the original handicap ramp design. The committee deferred its final design assessment, citing ongoing concerns about the "boxy" appearance of the front facade and the need to resolve Planning Board issues before issuing guidance.
A Design Review Committee member will attend the June 25 Planning Board hearing, and final recommendations on materials, colors, and exterior detailing remain pending that review.
