Mashpee Zoning Barbara Beeby 2 <br /> Board of Appeals c/o Elliot and Anne Bloom <br /> SP-05-31 <br /> wetland were deducted from the square footage of the lot, it would total 16,637 square <br /> feet and the house would be at 24.5% lot coverage, well over the 20%maximum lot <br /> coverage allowed. Section 174-17 of the by-laws contains language for the Board to <br /> consider the 19,360 square feet or the 20,700 square feet. Mr. Kiifane believes that <br /> should be Board consider the lot size to be 19,360 then his client would certainly be <br /> willing to reduce the house size by 1% to achieve the 20% lot coverage maximum and <br /> therefore removing the need for variance relief. The Board mulls over the presentation <br /> and read a letter of concern from the Brennans, a direct abutter. Their concern is the <br /> proximity of what is being referred to as the spa area in the deck for noise etc., and would <br /> greatly impede their privacy. Mr. Kirrane and the Architect, Tim Luff express that they <br /> are aware of this concern and have talked to the Brennans regarding this matter. They <br /> will make some type of concession such as screening and/or landscaping regarding this <br /> matter. The Board is in agreement that they would consider the lot size to be 19,360 <br /> square feet. They would like to see the house reduced by 1% and then they will consider <br /> the application. At the continued hearing on April 12, 2005, Mr. Kirrane presented the <br /> Board the new plans showing the proposed dwelling to be at 19.9% lot coverage. The <br /> Board again refers to the letter they received from Attorney Errico regarding the concerns <br /> of the Brennans, direct abutters. They remind Mr. Kirrane and Mr. Luff to address their <br /> concerns about the close proximity of the spa deck and arrange for landscaping/screening <br /> to reduce the noise and protect the Bremlans privacy. They agree to take care of this <br /> matter. Since the proposed dwelling with is at 19.9 % lot coverage, the variance request <br /> is withdrawn. <br /> SPECIAL PERMIT CRITERIA <br /> Section 174-17 of the Mashpee Zoning By-laws and Massachusetts General Laws <br /> Chapter 40A, Chapter 6; require a finding that the extension, alteration or change shall <br /> not be substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing <br /> non-conforming use. <br /> GENERAL FINDINGS <br /> 1. that the subject property is located at 41 Fiddler Crab Lane and contains <br /> 19,360 square feet. <br />
