MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS ' APRIL 25, 2012 AGENDA Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2012 9:44 AM To: Cynthia Bartos Subject: Mashpee zoning Board of Appeals April 25th meeting Board of Appeals, We (Tim and Pam Cline) owners of property located at 56 Tobisset Street. Abutting the property behind us is the property owned by Carol MacRae, 14 Michelle Lane, Mashpee, MA who is seeking. a variance for a 'pool house". It appears the request will allow them to build a pool house that would be closer to our adjoining property line. As it should be noted, we have never had an issue with noise from the MacRae's property since the addition of a pool in their backyard a few years ago. I am concerned that I would want to have a better understanding of what the purpose for a 'pool house" is for. I am assuming that the pool house would be used for storing equipment and pool pumps, but also concern due to the size and plans that it would also be a place for entertaining. 1 have no issues with my neighbors entertaining, but would like to be assured that appropriate times and respect be given to the abutting neighbors. You can understand my concern, as my property is surrounded front, side and back with pool owners who have parties. Some are louder than others. My backyard is not completed yet, but would be in the near future that will allow our family to spend more time in the back yard entertaining as well. I am sure you can understand my concern and would like assurance that noise would not be a problem, otherwise I have no problem with this request. Thank you for this consideration.
