MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS <br />DECISION FOR A WRITTEN FINDING <br />Ralph J. Cook, Jr. and Susan R. Cook <br />8 Annawon Road (Map 65 Parcel 38A) <br />Mashpee, MA 02649 <br />FINDING-2020-39 <br />GENERAL CRITERIA: <br />The subject property located at 8 Annawon Road is approximately 9,195 square feet. <br />A letter was submitted to the Board from Attorney Mike Gaines who was present at the <br />meeting and represented the abutters located at 2 Annawon Road who have concerns that <br />the 2 ft. expansion of the elevated deck is encroaching within the 50 ft. buffer to the <br />wetlands. They also had concerns that the lower deck, patio and block wall were not <br />permitted. <br />Mr. Cook said the Conservation Department looked at the site, and the proposed project <br />was approved. The lower deck was the original deck when they bought the house, but <br />gradually worked on the landscaping since buying the house. <br />WRITTEN FINDING CRITERIA: <br />ARTICLE V - Nonconforming Buildings and Uses: <br />§ 174-17.
