MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING MINUTES November 13, 2024 Attorney Kirrane requested a continuance until December 11, 2024. Mr. Reidy read the letter into the record. Chairman Bonvie asked for a motion to accept the continuance. Mr. Blaisdell, so moved. All were in favor. 14 Bank Street: Petitioner, Mashpee Commons Limited Partnership requests a Modification to and existing Special Permit (SP-86-04-024) to allow for re- purposing the use of an existing building located on property in the C-1 Zoning District, Map 74, Parcel 24, Mashpee, MA. Mr. Tom Feronti represented Mashpee Commons Limited Partnership seeking minor revisions to the existing Special Permit (SP-86-04-024) to address actual built conditions, certain square footage of commercial space and residential units, and actual built conditions for parking facilities. This is allowed under the Zoning District, and the Board can approve such changes. The specific request is related to Building 25 at 14 Bank Street located in Mashpee Commons. The existing building is 2,950 sq. ft., and was originally a bank with a drive-thru. The proposal is to change the use of that building to a food use with a drive thru. The square footage will not change. The existing building plan drive-thru depicted the current cueing on the back side of the building which brought the driver's window on the wrong side of the car in relation to the window of the building. The proposed changes is to reconfigure the building, not the square footage, but to relocate the drive-up window to the other side of the building. The drive-thru window on the east side of the building, it will be relocated to the west side of the building so that vehicles can pull in the direction based on the access to and from the site and create the vehicle direction around the building so that the drive-thru window is on the correct side of the vehicle and allow for proper cueing of vehicles. Mr. Feronti stated he met with the Fire Chief and the Deputy Fire to review this plan to make sure there were no concerns or issues. They did not have any concerns. There is currently no tenant that will occupy this building. It's a pre- empted measure to make it a more attractive building. It's been vacant for a couple years, but there has been some temporary tenants. There are no banks interested in opening up any facilities. Therefore would like to make the building more attractive for other potential uses. In conjunction with this renovation, there is contemplation with some outdoor seating area, but this will be addressed through the building permitting process with the Building Commissioner. 9
