MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS DECISION FOR AN EXTENSION OF FINDING-2018-25 AND V-2018-26 MOD-2021-42 Attorney Johnson said that his client is requesting a one year extension, and warrants a hardship with the cost of lumber because of the pandemic from the past year, and the fact that he exercised his right to build since the house was torn down as permitted. The Attorney also mentioned that the permitting process required a demolition permit first pursuant to the Zoning Board of Appeals Variance request, and then a building permit application could be submitted. Mr. Williams said that the house is gone,but the foundation is still there with an open hole because he thought he could possibly rebuild a garage on that same foundation. Mr. Goldstein said that the foundation hole should be covered because the Building Department would consider this a safety hazard. Mr. Williams said that he can cover the hole. There were no more questions from the Board. In view of the foregoing, the Board determined the Petitioner met the criteria for an extension of a Written Finding and Variance.
