Board of Appeals John J. Trotto - SP-95-57 2. <br /> Findings: <br /> A. General <br /> 1. the subject property is located at 58 Quaker Run Road and contains <br /> 25,600 square feet. <br /> 2. the subject property has 145' frontage on Popponesset Bay and is in an <br /> area of single family homes, many of which have docks on the Bay. <br /> 3. the proposed dock would be accessory to an existing dwelling and is a <br /> permissible use within the zoning district upon the grant of a Special <br /> Permit from the Board of Appeals. <br /> 4. the length of the proposed dock does not comply with the provisions <br /> and would require a Variance to exceed 70'. <br /> B. Special Permit Criteria <br /> Section 174-25.I.9 states that the Board must find that the structure will not <br /> unduly interfere with the free passage of travel by water or land or cause or <br /> contribute to the substantial disruption or degradation on the marine or coastal <br /> environment. <br /> C. Specific Findings <br /> 1. the proposal has not been approved by the Harbormaster and the Shellfish <br /> Constable whose responsibilities include safety on the water and protection of <br /> the maring environment. <br /> 2. the proposal has not been approved by the Conservation Commission to <br /> address impacts on the coastal environment. <br /> 3. the applicant failed to meet with the Harbormaster and present any alternative <br /> plans. <br /> For the foregoing reasons, the Board of Appeals found that the applicant failed to <br /> meet the criteria necessary for the granting of a Special Permit. Upon motion duly made <br /> and seconded, the Board of Appeals voted unanimously on September 27, 1995 to deny <br /> the application for a Special Permit without prejudice. <br />
