Members sitting: E. Govoni, R. Nelson, C. Hawver Mr. Jordan represented his application and explained that he wished to add a bedroom but because of the corner lot could not meet the setback on both streets. He explained that that he will have 22.4% lot coverage and does not really need the setback but it will legalize the present structure. Ms. Hawver moved to grant a variance of 2.4% on the lot coverage and a setback variance of 5.8 feet on Wilson's Grove and 3.5 feet on Shore Drive. She explained that the hardship came from the corner lot and will not be more detrimental. Mr. Nelson seconded. All agreed. Mr. Hauck said they should have signatures on the plans and the engineer should add the addition and the lot coverage. Gary M. Locamo TR. - Requests a Variance from Section 174-31 of the Zoning By-laws for permission to vary the setback requirements to allow a side setback of 9.01 on the north side on property located in an R-3 zoning district at 51 Waterline Drive South(Map 120, Block 145)Mashpee, MA. Members sitting: E. Govoni, C. Hawver, R. Guerrera M. Grotzke represented the applicant and informed the Board that the abutters had been concerned on the front porch of the house.
