(Owner of record: Town of Mashpee.) Notice was duly given to abutters in accordance with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A. Notice was given by publication in The Enterprise, a newspaper of general circulation in the Town of Mashpee on October 25 and November 1, 1991, a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof. A Public Hearing was held on the Petition at the Mashpee Town Hall on Wednesday, November 13, 1991 at 7:30 P.M. at which time the following members of the Board of Appeals were present and acting throughout: Michael A. Makunas, Edward M. Govoni and John J. Friel. Charles Buckingham of the Senior Center Addition Building Committee, presented plans for the addition to the Center and explained that the total parking would exceed the present number of spaces. He asked the Board to approve a total of 47 spaces and explained that the Center would seldom be used to maximum capacity. The Board found that relief could be granted without nullifying or derogating from the intent or purpose of the zoning by-laws or without detriment to the public good and that there were circumstances relating to the topography of the lot which created a hardship affecting the land in question but not the zoning district in which the land is located. i i
