We have lived on Monomoscoy for 35 years and our <br />family has owned a summer cottage here since the early fifties. Habitat for Humanity has <br />an excellent reputation for building modest, sensible homes in a professional and timely <br />manner. 1 am confident that the Town has thoroughly vetted this project as has Habitat <br />for Humanity. <br />Thank you, <br />Ken Parolski and Trish Parolski <br />351 Monomoscoy Road <br />This project will provide a worthy family with moderate income the opportunity to join <br />our community, whereas otherwise it might not be possible. Maury of the surrounding <br />properties are valued far too high so as to put there beyond the reach of a family with <br />only moderate income. We believe Monomoscoy Island needs more fill time residents <br />and more diversity. Some of the houses and building lots in the nearby vicinity are <br />similar in size to this proposed building lot and the modest home proposed by Habitat <br />would fel in nicely. Presently, the local zoning laws would not allow building on this <br />proposed lot without a variation in the building laws. The proposed Chapter 40-b' <br />designation would enable the Zoning Board to grant this variation. We are very <br />passionate about this proposal and we see it as a opportunity of a lifetime for its and also <br />• for some needy family. We and many of our caring neighbors encourage this Board to <br />grant this variance. <br />12 <br />
