Members sitting: Cheryl A. Hawver, Michael A. Makunas, Richard E. Halpern Attorney J. Carter represented the applicant. He informed the Board that Mr. Needleman had earlier applied for a Special Permit to build a two -car garage and had been advised by the Board that a Variance application was more appropriate. He reviewed the plans of the pie -shaped lot located on a cul-de-sac and stated that the topography of the lot presented a • hardship in the placement of a garage. He explained to the Board that the neighboring lots are similarly shaped and many have required variances on the side line set -backs. No comments were received from abutters.

He stated that they surpass all of the State and Federal safety requirements for the storage of propane gas. Mr. Makunas questioned the association of the refill store with the Mashpee Commons retail store for grill equipment. Mr. Muniz explained that Hall Oil Co. is the parent company for -both stores.
