A public hearing was held on the Petition at the Mashpee Town Hall on April 8, 1992 and, lacking a quorum of the Board, was continued on April 22, 1992 at 7:30 P.M. at which time the following members of the Board of Appeals were present and acting throughout: Michael A.

Architect Bruce Devlin provided a sketch of the garage. An abutter asked that the Board require some landscaping between the lot line and the garage and Mr. Sanicki stated that the owner would be willing to landscape. The Board found that the use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the by-laws and complies with the provisions therein. The Board determined that the extension and change would not be a detirment to the neighborhood.
