Any person requesting a determination or making written application
to perform work or certify resource boundaries regulated by the bylaw
shall at the same time give written notice thereof, by mailing by
certified mail with return receipt requested, certified mailing list,
or by hand delivery, to all abutters within 100 feet of the property
under consideration, according to the most recent records of the Board
of Assessors, including those across a traveled way, or across a body
of water if less than 100 feet across. The abutter notice shall include
a copy of the permit application or request, with plans, or shall
state where copies may be examined. If the person filing a request
for determination of applicability or other application is not the
owner of the area subject to the request or application, the applicant
shall also give written notice of the request or application with
hearing date and time to the owner of the parcel. The person providing
such notices to abutters or property owners by hand delivery shall
file an affidavit affirming that notification was done, with a copy
of the notice, with the Commission. Evidence of proper notification
shall be given to the Conservation Commission before or by the commencement
of the public hearing. Failure to do so may require postponement of
the meeting or hearing until the information is received.
