MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING MINUTES DECEMBER 13, 2017 If the Board were to hear this case tonight it would be impossible to approve it with these two outstanding cases. The applicant would therefore have the option to continue it, however,the Board is approaching the 100 day maximum time limit for an application and a normal continuance would not be applicable. The Board could hear the case and make a ruling, or the applicant could withdraw without prejudice and refile it. The final option available to the applicant would be for both the Board and applicant to sign a continuation agreement. Attorney Kirrane addressed the Board and said he executed a document extending the 100 day period, so the Board would not be in jeopardy of having granted any permit or any decision by default, and would like to continue the hearing until January 10, 2018. Mr. Goldstein made a motion that the Board allow and approve the applicant's request to extend the application for 29 Overlook Knoll Road until January 10, 2018. Mr. Gould seconded, yes, Mr. DeBarros, yes, Mr. Pittsley, yes, and Mr. Blaisdell, yes. All were in favor to allow for the extension request of 29 Overlook Knoll Road. (The applicant and Board signed a formal document that will be filed with the Clerk's office.) NEW HEARINGS 36 Riverside Road: Owner, James M.McCadden requests a Written Finding under§174- 17 of the Zoning Bylaws to allow for an addition and extension to an existing single-family dwelling on property located in an R-3 Zoning District, (Map 119 Parcel 126), Mashpee, MA. Mr. James McCadden represented himself for the application. He said he is looking to add an addition on his lot. Mr. McCadden referred to the 5.3 ft.jog on the plot plan, and would like to square off the area, and add a bedroom above. Mr. Goldstein asked if the area above the existing porch slab had a roof above and if it was open.. He also asked the applicant what the lot coverage was. He suggested that the applicant refer back to the engineer to add the existing and proposed figures on the plot plan. Mr. Goldstein also mentioned that the lot coverage should include the shed. If the shed is an issue with the lot coverage, you might want to remove it. Building Commissioner, Mike Mendoza made a suggestion that the Board can make"a condition that the applicant has to submit a site plan with the necessary information on that plan, as long it doesn't exceed the 20% lot coverage he can pursue a permit. If it doesn't have the information, either way he would have to re-advertise because he's only asking for a Written Finding and no relief for lot coverage. 2
