a <br />MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS <br />OCTOBER 22, 2014 <br />• MINUTES <br />Attorney, Kevin Kirrane represents Cotuit Solar LLC in connection with the applications <br />in pursuing a Special Permit and Variance relief. Also present was Conrad Geyser, Owner, <br />and Charlie Rowley, Consulting Engineer for the Town. Mr. Kirrane stated his client <br />received a letter dated October 17, 2014 from Charlie Rowley regarding some issues and <br />plot plan, and engineering concerns that should be addressed. Mr. Geyser provided an <br />updated plan and gave a copy to Mr. Rowley for his review. <br />Mr. Kirrane provided the Board with a copy of the statue, Chapter 40A, Section 15 which <br />affords the Board and the applicant to extend the time which the Board must make a <br />Decision and filed with the Town Clerk. This extension would afford the time for Charlie <br />Rowley to review the plans and communicate with the applicant if there are any updates <br />required. Mr. Kirrane stated that he would like to request an extension until December 10, <br />2014, but will appear at the November 12, 2014 meeting to discuss any updates the Board <br />has requested. <br />Mr. Rowley stated he can review the plans and narrative and can submit his comments by <br />the middle of next week. He encouraged Mr. Geyser to contact his engineer to <br />communicate directly with him. Mr. Geyser agreed that Mr. Rowley can communicate <br />directly with Cotuit Solar's engineer. <br />. Mr. Bonvie asked Mr. Rowley if he has any engineering issues he could convey to the <br />Board. Mr. Rowley said there are a couple issues regarding the parking that is a zoning <br />bylaw issue, and there's a specific air conduit or air intake line that is part of the proposal <br />layout on Trinity Place. These items were not discussed in detail at any of the Planning <br />Board meetings and Mr. Rowley could not make any determinations. <br />Mr. Blaisdell asked Mr. Rowley if they require to go back to the Planning Board. Mr. <br />Rowley said only if there were any modifications required by the Planning Board. The only <br />item on the plan is the intake line location. if this line was removed out of the layout from <br />Trinity Place and incorporated strictly on their lot, there would be no issue with the <br />Planning Board. Mr. Bonvie suggested a letter be submitted to the ZBA by the Director of <br />the Planning Board. Mr. Kirrane stated that the pipe on the plan was approved by the <br />Planning Board. He suggested his client remove the pipe from the layout of the road so it <br />would not require returning to the Planning Board. <br />Mr. Rowley said the plan that was recorded at the registry was only one of four sheets. The <br />pipe was on one of the sub -sheets that was approved by the Planning Board. He does not <br />recall if it was on the final plan, or mentioned in the minutes. He did not receive any details <br />regarding the drainage and not sure what was approved. The Planning Board is meeting <br />again on November 5, 2014, and would be essential to be on their agenda and discuss prior <br />to the ZBA meeting on November 12, 2014. <br />Mr. Kirrane would like to address the zoning issues pertaining to the Variance relief on the <br />• parking requirements, and will get detail on the pipe. Mr. Kirrane gave the Board a copy <br />of the original building plan which they never saw. <br />2 <br />
