Fordham request a Special Permit under §174-17.1 and §174-33 of the Zoning Bylaws to raze a pre-existing, non-conforming single family dwelling and replace it with a new single family dwelling on property located in an R-3 Zoning District, Map 124 Parcel 52, Mashpee, MA. Sitting on this hearing were the four regular Board members and Mr. Pittsley. Attorney Christopher Kirrane represented the homeowners requesting a raze and replace of a single-family dwelling located in an R-3 Zoning District. This lot is totally within Land Subject to Coastal Storm Flowage (LSTCSF), which means there is zero lot coverage for zoning purposes, and there is 40 ft. of frontage which is non-conforming in the R-3 district for this lot. The structure is non-conforming because of the 100% lot coverage under LSTCSF,that has zero setback to wetlands, and there is a westerly side yard setback non-conformity of 9.4 ft. The current structure coverage is 15.2%.The proposal is to raze and replace the existing dwelling, and to eliminate the westerly side yard setback to conform at 15.5 ft. and reduce the overall lot structure coverage to 12.7%. There will be 300 sq. ft. less of structure. The project was approved by the Conservation Commission and will include an IA technology micro-fast septic system. The new structure will become a flood zone compliant and building code compliant. There are no new non-conformities being created, and there will be dry wells installed to capture water runoff. The new structure will be similar to other dwellings in the neighborhood that have been approved by the Board in the past. 1
