The Shellfish Constable recommended the float area be revised to 200 sf or less . Mr .

Joseph and Betsy L Chiasson - Request a Variance from Section 174-31 of the Zoning By-laws for permission to vary the setback requirements in an R-3 zoning district on property located at 89 Shore Drive (Map 117 , Block 341 ) Mashpee, MA. Members sitting : J . Friel, M. Makunas, C. Hawver Mr . Chiasson explained that a deck had been built on his property without a building permit. The deck is 9 . 23' from the side line . He said a tenant had built the deck in lieu of rent . The Board discussed height of the deck and determined it was appoximately 24 , off of the ground. Mr. Chaisson said that the deck provided access to a side door. Virginia Landry, a resident of Popponesset, reviewed the plans . Mr . Makunas informed the applicant that he would have to prove a hardship which could not be self-imposed. He said that the fact that it ws built without a permit too close to the lot line did not constitute hardship. Mr . Hauck said he is allowed a four to five toot square landing and asked if the Board would approve a four foot walkway to the rear deck. Mr. Makunas said it would still be non-conforming and would require a Variance . It was suggested the applicant supply information on hardship.
