Notice was duly given to abutters in accordance with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A. Notice was given by publication in The Mashpee Enterprise, a newspaper of general circulation in the Town of Mashpee, on December 11, 2020 and December 18, 2020. The Mashpee Zoning Board of Appeals issues this Decision pursuant to the provisions of Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A §6 and the Town of Mashpee Zoning By-laws. Public Hearings were held on the Petition at the Mashpee Town Hall on Wednesday, January 13, 2021 as a virtual remote meeting at which time the following members of the Board of Appeals were present and acting throughout; Chairman, Jonathan Furbush, Vice Chairman, William Blaisdell, Board Members, Ron Bonvie, Scott Goldstein, and Norman J. Gould. Attorney, Mike Ford represented the new hearing for a Written Finding to replace an existing pool and raised patio around the pool with a screened in porch around the existing house. The property is in an R-3 Zoning District and is non-conforming with respect to lot size noted at 15,957 sq. ft. where 40,000 is required. The frontage is 122 ft. and 150 ft. is required. Lot coverage is 36.7%., where 30% is allowed in this area, but the lot size will decrease to 36.6%. The project is also non-conforming in terms of the setback from wetlands. The current setback from the wetlands is 17.3 ft., and there will be a slight improvement at 17.8 ft. when the new pool is installed, and the patio is replaced. At the last meeting, in addition to discovering that the petition was incorrectly advertised, there was a net increase in lot coverage of 48 sq. ft. The Board was very specific that in this area parcels are already non-conforming in terms of lot coverage, and the Board does not allow an increase in lot coverage. A new site plan was submitted along with two renderings depicting the revisions. 1
