MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING MINUTES MAY 9, 2018 Board Member Scott Goldstein read the Board of Health Comments into the record; "BOH Comments: A septic inspection is required due to change of,faotprint (or addition of garage which will take up additional land for possible septic use). The septic inspection report shall be provided to the BOHprior to Building Permit approval. " Mr. Bonvie read the Board of Health comments that were emailed to the Building Commissioner into the record. "After our discussion with the owner of the above property, I wanted to memorialize the outcome in writing. After further review of the site plan, the front setback of 40' does not allow the garage to be put on the east side of the septic system. Therefore, the proposed location is really the only location that meets the septic setbacks to the pump chamber and the septic tank. The garage might be able to be moved laterally toward the septic tank but it will not gain any further distance from the real- property earproperty line. " Mr. Bonvie read the Conservation comments into the record. "I confirmed that there is a wetland situated on the lot at 50 Canonchet Avenue, and is very likely that the 100ft buffer zone to the wetlands extends onto the property at 56 Canonchet. " Mr.Bonvie asked the applicants if they filed anything with Conservation. Mr.Diggins said; he was not instructed to. He told them they needs to speak with Drew directly per his comments submitted; "This property lies within the 100 ft. buffer zone to a verified freshwater wetland. The applicants meet with conservation dept. staff to determine what type of filing is necessary for the garage, depending on location of said garage. " Mr. Goldstein read an abutter letter that resides at 9 Wamsutta Rd. into the record. Mr. Bonvie read a direct abutter to the property into the record. Mr. Furbush read an abutter letter that resides at 40 Canonchet Rd. into the record. The homeowners stated that they will not be running a business out of their garage. The water that runs in front of their home is runoff from Oneida, and they have been maintaining and preventing the runoff since they owned the home. The garage will be 25' x 25'. They are fencing in the entire backyard to avoid any issues. Mr. Furbush mentioned that all water must be contained on the property, and usually done with drywells. If there's an issue with your property, the Conservation Agent will make that determination. Mr. Goldstein mentioned that he needed clarity regarding the location of the garage in relation to the septic system. He said as one member, he does not have an issue. He said that Conservation has to approve this, but the Board can be made a condition in the decision. 2
