MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 25, 2023 Chairman Bonvie read comments into the record from Evan Lehrer, Town Planner and the Community Development Director that were received just before the meeting started. To summarize, Mr. Lehrer stated that the Board should review sections 174-17.1, and Section 174- 24.C.2 of the Zoning Bylaws in order to make a finding determination. Mr. Reidy read the comments dated October 24, 2023 from the Board of Health into the record; "New fast system approved for four (4) bedrooms in main house. " The Conservation Department comments dated October 25, 2023; "The only update Conservation has is for 339 Monomoscoy Road. The commission voted to close and issue the raze & replace for 339 Monomoscoy with conditions in a 4-2 vote. Landscape plans to be revised to include 2,812 square feet of mitigation in the 50' buffer zone per commission determination. Attorney Kirrane stated he listed the specific enhancements that will be made to the lot and the proposed new dwelling construction in his written presentation. He stated that there has been substantial mitigation conditioned by the Conservation Commission. Mr. Furbush asked if a revised landscape plan will be provided for the Board to sign off. Attorney Kirrane did not provide the landscape plan. He believes it is not a zoning issue. Chairman Bonvie stated as in prior applications when the Board makes a motion and it includes a condition if there are changes to the plans i.e., removal of trees or shrubs will require the applicant to return to this Board. Attorney Kirrane said that if that is the case he will return to the Board, but he does not anticipate that for this application. He stated that Conservation will be responsible for the revised landscape plan, but the project was closed and his understanding is an order of conditions was issued. Chairman Bonvie is concerned that the Board has not seen a revised plan, and believes that this Board does require review of landscaping. He also stated that he wants to revise the application/submittal requirements for petitioners. Mr. Goldstein stated it is his opinion that Conservation approved the landscape plan. Ms. Sangeleer asked if the new tree bylaw will be effected by this application. Chairman Bonvie stated that will be reviewed by the Town Planner and the Building Commissioner at the time of permitting. The Board reviewed the proposed site plan and wanted clarification if the easement was affected by the project. Chairman Bonvie polled the Board for comments. Mr. Goldstein is satisfied with the placement of the house, it's an improvement to the property, and is well under the lot coverage. 4
