MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS <br /> MEETING MINUTES <br /> MARCH 23,2022 <br /> Charlie Reidy asked if the house was sized so there were not any side yard setback issues <br /> with the new construction would that perhaps result in a house that was smaller in coverage <br /> of the lot, and would be less coverage that is covered now. <br /> Attorney Kirrane said that the lot coverage would be reduced to some degree. <br /> Mr. Blaisdell agrees that increasing the lot coverage from 25.5%to 31.6%is a considerable <br /> amount in lot coverage. He asked what the lot coverages are for the surrounding homes. <br /> Mr. Goldstein said as one member does not see a hardship on this project to qualify for a <br /> Variance especially with the house design. <br /> Attorney Kirrane believes that there are features to this project that is making it better, and <br /> outweighs the Board's concerns on the lot coverage. He believes this house is typical of <br /> the other homes in the neighborhood. <br /> Sharon read the Town Planner's letter dated March 23, 2022 into the record that was sent <br /> to Chris Gallagher, and the Board of Health comments, and Conservation comments. <br /> Attorney Kirrane said that he does not believe there are any non-conformities being <br /> created.
