Mashpee Zoning <br />Board of Appeals Minutes <br />• 2 October 8, 2008 <br />existing dwelling is non -forming and in order to have any additions <br />constructed the applicant will need a variance. Steve Cook presents his <br />plans to the Board and shows where the relief will be needed. Attorney <br />Kenney explains to the Board that there would be no building envelope left <br />if all the zoning were conformed to. The Board reviews the plans and try to <br />suggest some alternatives to reduce the variance request. Jonathan Furbush <br />suggests moving the deck around — Mr. Cook says that they would lose the <br />use of the deck should these suggested changes be made. There is limited <br />movement for any acceptable changes. Mr. Cook says that the bulkhead is in <br />the way and there is only one window for an egress. They discuss the one <br />foot offset and the Board is reluctant to give a variance of 39 feet — it would <br />send a message that they are not comfortable with. Attorney Kenney says <br />that the lot line abuts a road that will never be developed and there are no <br />abutters that are concerned. They all discuss various suggestions to reduce <br />the variance request. Jonathan Furbush also suggest making the room round <br />and changing the pitch of the roof. Mr. Cook says that he can make some <br />compromises after he speaks with his client. The Board discusses the shed <br />and how far off the lot line it needs to be — they ask Mr. Stevens if it needs <br />. to conform to frontyard setbacks or can it just sit 5 feet off the lot line. It is <br />determined that the applicant will need a variance for the shed if it stays in <br />that area. The Board would like to see revised plans before they grant <br />anything. The matter will be continued until October 8, 2008 at which time <br />the new plans will be submitted and the Board is in agreement to grant the <br />variances with the compromises they have come up with. <br />October 8, 2008 <br />Steven Cook represents the applicant at this continued hearing from <br />September 24, 2008. The Board had asked Mr. Cook to submit the new set <br />of plans they compromised with so the Board could approve the addition <br />with the plans dated October 1, 2008. Jack Dorsey makes a motion to grant <br />the following: <br />A 38 foot variance for the addition to Cataquin Road <br />A 24 foot variance for the shed from Cataquin Road <br />A 22 foot variance for the shed from Annawon Road <br />I& Robert Nelson seconds the motion. All agree. So moved. <br />
