TOWN OF MASHPEE N BOARD OF APPEALS TOWN HALL, MASHPEE, MASSACHUSETTS 02649 • !Ag Ca DECISION . RE: Petition of George C. Leach for Variance Case #V-85-06-033 A petition was filed by George C. Leach of Lynnfield, Massach- usetts for a Variance for permission to vary the setback distance from private roads on property located on the southwest corner of Mono- moscoy Road and Overland Road, Mashpee, Massachusetts. Notice was duly given to abutters in accordance with Massach- usetts General Laws Chapter 40A. Notice was given by publication in the Falmouth Enterprise, a newspaper of general circulation in the Town of Mashpee on June 12, 1985 and June 19, 1985 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, June 26, 1985 at 7:30 p.m. at which time the following members of the Board of Appeals were present and acting throughout: William Hanrahan, Cheryl Hawver and Thomas Sexton. Mr. Cain represented Mr. Leach on this matter. Mr. Cain explained that this lot is bounded on two sides by streets and a third by Hamlin Pond. Both of the streets are known as paper roads. Mr. Hanrahan was concerned with an existing summer cottage shown on the plans. The Board found no problem with the variances on the proposed building but -they did have a problem with the accessory building. Building Inspector Douglas Boyd explained to the Board that an accessory building is allowed if-fit is an accessory building,, no habitation and no kitchen. Mr. Leach told the Board that he intended to use the building as a summer guest house, it would not be rented to a third party. He said that it would be an accessory building used for habitation. The Board felt that in a way they were creating their own hardship by building the second building, then the other one becomes the accessory building and that doesn't conform to the by-law. `f
