Attorney Gildea stated the Mr. Dupuis is seeking to locate his business in Mashpee, and is under a purchase agreement for the proposed property. The property is within the Town of Mashpee Economic Development and Industrial Corporation(FDIC) area designated by the Massachusetts legislature. The Town currently views this area as underutilized and is encouraging economic development. This project will help fulfill the mission of stimulating economic opportunities and fulfill some of the Town's 1998 comprehensive plan by providing the community with a full range of commercial services and facilities. This project could potentially involve an investment of over a million dollars and an anticipated tax revenue of approximately$10,000 each year. The proposal submitted to the Board consists of a detailed written narrative, a three page site plan depicting the drainage, grading, utilities, and septic system design of the project. On October 21, 2014, the project was presented to Design/Review Committee, who gave recornmendations that are incorporated in the site plan. The Board of Health submitted a letter dated November 10, 2014, (see attached), stating they approved the site and septic plan along with several conditions to be adhered to including the venting direction of the spray booth. One of the conditions indicates the spray booth to be vented at the North section of the building away from the abutting residential neighborhood. The Health Agent suggested the Board adopt his recommended conditions for the Special Permit. The project property is located adjacent to the Mashpee Water District Building lot on Industrial Drive, and abuts a residential subdivision that was developed and approved after the creation of the industrial park. The distance from the Mashpee Water District Building to the residential area is 125 feet,and the distance for the proposed building would be 145 feet. Under the bylaw, parking on this proposed project could be within 10 feet of the lot line.The parking spaces depicted on the plan indicate 59 to 60 feet from the abutter's property line. The new owner proposes to bring closer to the building of the existing fence and include a row of evergreen shrubbery to act as a screen. 2
