y _ <br />a <br />' i.N• <br />F' H. <br />, <br />4 <br />. <br />:d J <br />14. The land in question is not at all suitable for residential <br />house lot development because of its peculiar location. It is bordered <br />on the West by the Otis Trailer Village; on the North by a large gravel <br />pit and a U. S. Governmont easement zone which prohibits human <br />habitation; on the Past and South by '.Toody Pond, swamps, cranberry <br />bogs, uninhabited woodland, Otis Air Force beach and parking lot and <br />a beach on John's Pond used by Otis Trailer Village. <br />These surrounding conditions as well as the hilly nature of <br />the terrain make the. land unsuitable and undesirable for residences. <br />These special conditions art; peculiar to this parcel of land and do not <br />generally affect other laud in the same district. <br />A strict enforcement of the 7.onina By -Law would involve a <br />substantial hardship on the applicant. He has a large financial <br />investment in this land. fly placing this Lind in n residential district <br />and then absolutely prohibiting the use of the land for a Trailer ParR <br />or Mobile Home Park, this Ry-Law is effectively depriving the applicant <br />of the best and possibly only use of his property without any compensation <br />and is unconstitutional and invalid. <br />The granting of the requested variance would result in no <br />injury or detriment to the public good. The use would be compatible <br />to that of the adjoining Otis Trailer Village_. All sites will be well <br />maintained and supervised in strict compliance with local and state <br />health regulations. The land for the most part would remain in its <br />natural wooded state in 1:nepinq with current Qnvironmental concerns, <br />which would be l;roatly boiieficial to the nubile good. <br />The grnntin-- of the requested variance would in no way <br />derogate from the intent alid purpose of the Zoning By -Law. .As <br />previously stated, the preservation of the land in its natural state would <br />be a far more appropriate use of the land than cutting clown the trees <br />and bulldozing the land for use as residential lots. There would he <br />little if any ineraa3c :it traffic, fire or iwalih hazard for the Town <br />and no undue concenh•atirn of population. It would certainly encourage <br />tite inost nppropriat„ use of this particular parcel. <br />j <br />RECEIVED <br />' ,' U 3- 1974 <br />MASHME TPWN CLERK <br />�.L�-t..e� ��•..�w-,cam <br />
