• • Mashpee Zoning Board of Appeals Minutes 3 January 10, 2007 Louise Berman: Ms. Berman is a resident on Algonquin Avenue and directly across from the emergency exit proposed on this street. She is very concerned about more paving being done on that exit. Mr. Bonvie informs her that there must be something solid for any emergency vehicle to gain access as well as it being plowed in the winter time. He insists no construction equipment will use this entrance on Algonquin Avenue. She is also concerned with the buffer strip not being properly vegetated over the years. Mr. Bonvie informs her and the Board that they have done 2 sets of plantings due to harsh weather and will continue to provide upkeep to that area. Ms. Berman also mentions the topography has several steep drops and sand pits. She also mentions that the start of up of construction time should be looked into as many times trucks idled far earlier than 7:00 a.m. Mr. Nelson informs her that this is a planning Board issue. Motion: Robert Nelson makes a motion to recommend conceptual approval for Phase III as submitted with a letter being submitted to the Planning Board on pushing back several units along with several other recommendations. Frederick Borgeson seconds the motion. All agree. So moved. Mr. Nelson suggests that the Planning Board consider using envelopes on all the building lots. Additionally, the Board would like to see units 52, 53, and 54 pulled back 10 feet from the buffer zone. Mr. Bonvies suggest they may make the decks 12 feet instead of 14 feet and adjust the roadway system to get more of the setback in tact. The Board also suggest uni 56 G be moved back from the lot line and be made into a tri-plex rather than a quad -flex. Mr. Lloyd Allen and Charlotte Bocuzzi address the Board regarding the walkway on Payamps Road. They are asking to build a four foot walking path. Mr. Nelson tells them that although it is a nice idea, the ZBA has no jurisdiction regarding any property outside the Southport lines for this hearing/meeting. They recommend and direct them to go to the Board of Selectmen for further guidance. Kathleen Girelli: Requests a Special Permit from Section 174-45.4 of the Zoning By- laws to legalize an existing accessory dwelling on property located in an R-5 zoning district at 32 Highview Avenue (Map 49 Parcel 124) Mashpee, MA. Sitting: Robert Nelson, Zella Elizenberry, Marshall Brem, Frederick Borgeson, and Jonathan Furbush, Kathleen Girelli represents herself at this hearing. She is seeking to legalize an existing accessoary apartment that is currently in her basement. The Board reviews the floor plans and pictures she has submitted. She has completed the Plan Review Process as well. The Board of Health has allowed up to 4 bedrooms in the dwelling. There still needs to be an inspection by the Building Inspector.
