2 project plans. Special Counsel Jason Talerman appeared on behalf of the Board as • well. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1. The proposed project is described on the plans of the Horsely Witten Group, as revised through April 24, 2004. These plans, as revised, reflect evidence presented during the Public Hearing. The Applicant has also submitted architectural plans of Steven C. Hayes, as revised through February 13, 2004. The plans are hereinafter referred to collectively as the"Plans." 2. The Plans exhibit 8 single family detached houses on separate lots and two 4-unit "quadplex"dwellings, each on their own lot. All of the homes are to be "for sale" rather than for rent. Five of the proposed units are to be restricted. 3. Of the single family homes, the Applicant proposes two separate housing styles. The proposed ranches will contain two bedrooms and the proposed cape-style homes will contain three bedrooms. Each of the quadplexes will contain 2 one bedroom units and 2 two bedroom units. The Applicant has provided a list of building amenities and construction standards. 4. Two of the detached single family units (designated as Lot 5 and Lot 8) and three of the quadplex units are to be restricted for sale to households earning no more • than 80% of area median income. One of the detached single family units is to be restricted for sale to households earning no more than 120% of area median income. 5. In addition to the subdivision of the residential lots, the Applicant has requested that the Board provide the necessary relief and approvals for the creation of a commercial lot, identified as Lot 12 on the Plans. The Applicant has requested that the Board provide no other relief for the proposed commercial use of Lot 12 and the Applicant has pledged that it will obtain all necessary permits and approvals for the use of such lot through conventional means pursuant to Mashpee By-laws and Regulations. 6. The Project is served by a single access roadway. A cul-de-sac has been added to the end of the roadway at the Board's request. The roadway is steeply sloped (upward) at its intersection with Rte. 130. 7. The Project is to be served by public water and a private shared septic system. III. FINDINGS • 1. The Board finds that the original dead-end road design did not provide adequate access for emergency vehicles. The Board finds that the Applicant's revisions to the Plans, providing a larger cul-de-sac, have adequately addressed these concerns. The
