Assessor's Map 118 Parcel 115, Mashpee, MA. Owners of Record: Kathleen P. Bragdon and Joseph G. Imbriani, Trustees. (Continued jron: May 27, 2015 Hearings). Mr. Furbush announced the five regular board members were sitting in on this hearing. Mr. Kevin Kirrane represented the applicants on the continued hearing regarding the proposed dwelling. Also present was Denise Bonoli, Architect. The Board had some • questions from the previous hearing regarding lot coverage due to a well that was created in the rear for access to the basement, and an issue regarding the cupola situated on the roof. The original plan depicted a concrete wall and stairway approximately 8 feet that would allow access to the lower level basement area. The Board was concerned the proposed concrete wall constituted a structure and would increase the lot coverage. Mr. Kirrane provided an updated plan that depicts a much shorter and smaller landscape timber with planting beds and has been designed as four feet, and a door on the back side of the stairwell area. The concrete wall has been removed and substituted with a landscape feature. At the last hearing, the Board suggested that the roof line be lengthened and that the cupola be reduced to a 6' x 6' dimension. Mr. Furbush asked if a hand -rail is required on the stairway. Mr. Goldstein said yes, anything over three risers. Mr. Goldstein said the revised plan looks great. If the landscaping was over four feet, it would require the engineer to update the plan and would increase the lot coverage. Mr. Bonvie was satisfied. Mr. Blaisdell was satisfied with the updated plan. Mr. Bonvie read the Board of Health comments into the record; `Board of Health Comments: Title V design plan has been submitted in draft form to the BOH. Plans will be finalized for review and approval upon ZBA approval per engineer. Plans are in draft form due to no perk tests. BOH approved draft plans. Property is OK with three bedrooms. Floor plans are OK." is
