Board of Appeals Minutes -May 13, 1998 4. Members sitting: C. Hawver, J. Dorgan, R. Nelson Attorney Kevin Kirrane represented the applicant. He explained that the applicant requires a Variance of 7 feet from the front setback in order to meet the 50 foot setback from the wetlands. Mr, Hauck explained that the zoning in the area originally required a 20 foot front setback and a 10 foot side setback but that he is now requiring a 30 foot front setback. He said the shape, size and topography of the lot create a hardship in the use of the lot. An abutter asked to see the plan but had no objections. Mr. Nelson moved to grant the Variance of 7 feet to allow a 23 foot front line setback. He found that the shape and topography with the unusual contours affected this lot and not the district and that the Iot has been maintained as a separate lot and is subject to betterments. Mr. Dorgan seconded. All agreed. Will Members sitting: E. Govoni, C. Hawver, R. Nelson Mr. Govoni stated that Willowbend has requested an extension in the hearing calendar to July 15, 1998.
