MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS <br /> MEETING MINUTES <br /> APRIL 11,2018 <br /> 100 Falmouth Road: Owner, Timothy W. Leedham, Trustee — T&C Nominee Trust <br /> requests a Written Finding under §174-17 of the Zoning Bylaws to alter and expand a non- <br /> conforming commercial use structure by adding some 6,363 sq. ft. of space to be used for <br /> showroom, office, and service space on property located in a C-2 Zoning District, Map 54 <br /> Parcel 6, Mashpee, MA. <br /> Attorney Kevin Kirrane represented Tim Leedham, Owner of Bosun's Marine, and Raul <br /> Lizardi-Rivera with .Cape & Islands Engineering were also present. The proposal is <br /> regarding the facility located on the corner of Rte. 28 and Bowdoin Road known as Bosun's <br /> Marine. Attorney Kirrane provided the Board with his written remarks, and attached the <br /> several decisions that relate to the property that the Board has voted upon in the past. He <br /> also provided the Board with the plans for the proposed project. <br /> The site plan shows the existing conditions with the existing structure and there is also a <br /> second structure on the site which is a combination of the two lots that are split by industrial <br /> and commercial zones. The Board has approved expansions to this building in the past and <br /> is familiar with the existing facility. The applications submitted include a Written Finding <br /> because the building is pre-existing non-conforming, and there is also an application for a <br /> modification to a recent Special Permit that was issued back in the year 2000 for certain <br /> expansions of the existing building. <br /> The building is non-conforming because it sits 49 ft. off Bowdoin Road, and under the <br /> bylaw the requirement is 75 ft., so it does not comply with the setbacks from Bowdoin <br /> Road. <br /> Mr. Kirrane explained the darker area depicted on the plan is the proposed addition. The <br /> proposal consists of razing the second commercial building that is located on the site, and <br /> the darker shaded area on the plan is where the additional showroom and service facility <br /> will be located. The addition does comply with the 75 ft. setback, and is not in violation <br /> with any other setback requirement criteria. The use of the property remains the same and <br /> will allow an expansion of the existing showroom and service areas to be more efficient. <br /> He explained the details and elevations depicted on the building plans and the garage doors <br /> on the rear of the building and service area. <br /> Mr. Kirrane explained that the Special Permit use is detailed in his written remarks <br /> regarding public health or safety, traffic flow, erosion runoff onto neighboring properties, <br /> etc. He mentioned that additional parking will be proposed in the location where the old <br /> building sits that is being removed. There will be additional parking with handicapped <br /> spaces as well. The proposed use remains the same and does not adversely impact these <br /> concerns. This project was presented in front of the Design/Plan Review committees, and <br /> was approved. <br /> Chairman Furbush wanted to confirm the setbacks of the rear portion of the addition..He <br /> also mentioned he would like to have Charlie Rowley, Consulting Engineer for the Town <br /> review the plans because he is more knowledgeable with these types of projects. <br /> 5 <br />
