TOWN OF MASHPEE BOARD OF APPEALS TOWN HALL, MASHPEE, MASSACHUSETTS 02649 DECISION RE: Petition of Dr. Edward & Martha Palank for Variance Case- #V-85-07-038 _ A petition was filed by Dr. Edward & Martha Paland of Bedford, N.H. for a Variance for permission to vary the front, rear and side , setbacks in a C-2 zoning district on property located on Route 130, near Chopping Block, Mashpee, Massachusetts. Notice was duly given to abutters in accordance with Massachusetts 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 26, 1985 and July 3, 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, July 10, 1985 at 700 p.m. at which time the following members of the Board of Appeals were present and acting throughout: William Hanrahan, Manuel Costa and Michael Makunas. Mr. George Benway represented this application. Mr. Benway explained that this had been a legal buildable lot when it was bought in February of 1976, at that time it only required a 20 foot setback from front lines on a 10, 000 square foot lot area. Since that time the C-2 areas have been changed to 20,000 square foot with a 70 foot setback from raods. This lot is about 12,000 square feet. Mr.. Benway said that they could not build anything but a very narrow building. Their request was to ask for a 60 foot setback, the sidelines are no problem. In addition there would be a 15 foot back line variance, to allow a 60 by 30 foot building along with parking. Mr. Benway said that the petitioners also understood that if a variance is granted that they would have to return to the Board at a future date for the building design and parking and other restrictions under a special permit.
