Town departments told Captain Cass's owner an as-built plan was needed to resolve site compliance issues.
Other Committee · Meeting of November 4, 2026
ORLEANS — Town departments told Captain Cass's owner an as-built plan was needed to resolve site compliance issues. At an informal review of the restaurant at 117 Rock Harbor Road, Conservation's John Janelle listed a dumpster enclosure, shed, fencing and walk-in cooler missing from the 2023 plan, along with shell surfacing apparently on town land. The building department raised accessible parking and a shade structure, health asked for an outdoor dining application with the 2027 permit, and water requested a cross-connection survey.
A member said "taking it a department at a time" was inefficient for the owner. The group approved October 21 minutes 6-0-1.
