MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING MINUTES MARCH 28,2018 Mr. Kirrane said that the building will be a two story structure because the typography of the lot drops significantly from the rear lot line to the street. The rear of the building will be primarily garage space and will be a one story space. The proposal also includes to construct parking on the side and front of the building which the Board has the authority to grant based upon the appropriate section of the bylaw. This project is almost a mirror image of what the Board approved back in 2004. This project requires Special Permit relief not only for construction of the building but also for the proposed uses. In addition, this project was approved with the Site/Design Review Committee, and with recommended approval by the Zoning Board. Mr. Kirrane also applied for variance relief that is similar to the approval of the 2004 to the property at 759 Falmouth Road. The footnote 13 of the Zoning Bylaw calls for frontage of 600 ft., and this lot as shown on the plan only has 200 ft. of frontage. Mr. Kirrane commented that the wording should be corrected on this footnote 13 because it mentions 600 ft. of frontage required on Rte. 28 and Rte. 151,and he suggested it be changed to Rte. 28 or Rte, 151. He believes the Board has the discretion to make their own determination regarding the frontage on these routes. Mr. Bonvie commented that Charles Rowley submitted a quote for this project, and that the Board made a decision to secure engineering review for these commercial projects at previous meetings. Chairman Furbush read comments submitted by Evan Lehrer, Town Planner into the record. Mr. Furbush polled the Board for their comments and agreed that a variance would be required for this particular case. They believe the bylaw should be re-written. Mr.Mendoza will be working with the Town Planner to possibly revise the bylaw wording under Section 174-31, Footnote 13. Vice Chairman, Bill Blaisdell read the Conservation and Board of Health comments into the record. Associate Member, Sharon Sangeleer read the Inspection Department comments into the record. Mr. Furbush wanted to know who will be occupying the contractor bays. Mr. Mendoza said that any prospective applicants outside the use of the proposed contractor bays would require a re-filing with the Board. Inspections are required by the Building Department and Fire Department. Mr. Kirrane mentioned that there will be office space in the front. He provided the Board with a list of requirements under the Special Permit that can be conditioned if the Board grants relief. 3
