New Wetlands Boundary Drawn for Charter Oak Drive Home

NEW CANAAN, CT - The wetlands boundary of a 1.88-acre site on Charter Oak Drive has been shrunken, following a decision last week by the Inland Wetlands Commission.

A 6,600-square-foot house is under construction on the property, which had to be built closer to the road than originally hoped, reports NewCanaanite.com.

Previous owners of the site tampered with the property, which made locating the wetlands difficult.

“If you go down deep enough, you should be able to figure out what the wetlands are and redo this line,” Sheila Lee Chung Arabolos, told the commission, as reported by NewCanaanite.com. Her and her husband, John Arabolos, own the parcel and are building the new house. She added the lines should match up, but because of the tampering they don’t.
