<br />(5) eliminating two bedrooms in the basement. The plan is for one bedroom on the first
<br />floor, two above the garage, one existing on the second floor, and one bedroom on the
<br />second floor of the 528 square foot addition.
<br />Mr. Jodka asked Mr. Kirrane what the reason was for asking more than the required 20%.
<br />Mr. Kirrane said there is no hardship, put presented the Board with a revised plot plan that
<br />reduces the size of the deck.
<br />Mr. Blaisdell made a motion to approve the request for a Written Finding under Article V
<br />§174-17 of the Zoning By-laws and M.G.L. Chapter 40A §6 concerning continuance,
<br />extension or alteration of a pre-existing, non -conforming structure to allow for construction
<br />of a 528 sq. ft. addition and living space above garage on property located in an R-3 Zoning
<br />District at 146 Popponesset Island Road, (Map 112 Parcel 10), Mashpee, MA. Referencing
<br />a plot plan prepared by BSS Design Engineering & Surveying, Scale = 1"= 20', dated July
<br />• 8, 2014, drawn EJP, TJB, job number 14008, Drawing number B22-19, for Michael
<br />Moskowitz, 146 Popponesset Island Road, Mashpee, MA. Also making the motion, the
<br />Board finds that the dwelling is not substantially more detrimental than the existing non-
<br />conforming structure. The new dwelling will be an improvement and conform to current
<br />building code requirements, is compatible in size and character to other structures in the
<br />neighborhood and there is sufficient parking and setbacks as may be required.
