16 Great Neck Road North <br />Mashpee, .Massachusetts o2649 <br />Hearing notice for the original proposed 14 units, were they aware they were over the 853 <br />cap? <br />Mr. McElhinney was not aware of the bedroom cap but he was aware of units being approved. <br />Ms. Faulkner referenced the modification of the Special Permit decision signed by the Vice <br />Chair of the Planning Board on November 12, 1991. In modification to special permit IV, the <br />Board voted on November 6, 1991 to grant proposed modifications and modify permit adding a <br />new condition to the total number of residential units shall not exceed 287, and total number of <br />bedrooms, not including dens, studies, or family rooms, shall not exceed 853. <br />Mr. McElhinney stated it has never been discussed by this Board, a neighborhood was added <br />with four units, and the previous Town Planner consistently and particularly tracked the <br />number of units. He did not track the bedrooms, nobody was. <br />Mr. Balzarini knows the previous Planner was always concerned about bedrooms and the <br />water. Being on the Board for 22 years, they always gave Willowbend what they wanted, they <br />should've been the ones to bring that to the Board's attention. <br />Ms. Faulkner noted 140+ extra bedrooms, and with 12 units you can build 3 bedrooms each, <br />adding 36 more bedrooms brings the total to roughly 1,024 total bedrooms. She will follow <br />Town Counsel's advice and certify the number of bedrooms. It's her understanding the only <br />way they can do this is to take a physical count of the bedrooms. Is he willing to permit the <br />Building Department to take a count? The Building Commissioner is the Zoning Enforcement <br />Officer, someone with a badge would physically go to the homes and do a bedroom count. <br />Mr. Balzarini stated the building permit will say how many bedrooms and they can then go <br />confirm. <br />Ms. Waygan noted it will be time consuming. <br />Ms. Faulkner commented it could take two weeks to complete so time is a consideration. <br />There is also a significant cost that will be imposed on the Building Department. <br />Ms. Waygan stated their consulting engineer may have the capacity to assist the Building <br />Department with this task. <br />Mr. McElhinney doesn't have the authority to gain access to anyone's home. He asked what <br />the objective was for doing this. All these homes are connected to the sewage plant, he has <br />explained this volume has been approved by DER He objects to the insinuation that he was <br />4 <br />
