Mashpee Zoning Frances Fairneny 2 Board of Appeals 60 Clover Lane V-06-20 foot variance on the southerly side to replace the original variance of 6.7 feet. All are in t favor of this. VARIANCE CRITERIA Section 10 of Chapter 40A requires that the permit granting authority determine that there are circumstances relating to the shape and topography which affect this lot and not the district in which it is located and that a literal enforcement of the By-laws would involve hardship to the petitioner. GENERAL FINDINGS 1. that the subject property is located at 60 Clover Lane and contains 10,049 square feet. SPECIFIC CRITERIA The Board determined that: 1. the subject property has an unusual shape and therefore the circumstances relating to the shape and topography affect the subject lot and not the district in which it is located. 2. the size of the lot is consistent with the size of other developed lots in the neighborhood; therefore, relief may be granted without detriment to the public good. 3. Since the engineer miscalculated the original lot line, the applicant was not at fault. In view of the foregoing, the Mashpee Zoning Board of Appeals found that the Petitioner met the criteria necessary for the granting of a Variance. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Zoning Board of Appeals voted unanimously on March 22, 2006 to grant a 12.6 foot variance on the southerly side.
