Mr. Furbush so moved. Mr. Caggiano second. All were in favor of accepting the withdrawal without prejudice. 55 Redwood Circle: Owners, Edward D. and Rudite E. Pilpel request a Written Finding under§174-17 and §174-33 of the Zoning Bylaws to allow for an addition on the right front side of a pre-existing nonconforming structure, and reconfiguring of an existing deck on property located in an R-5 Zoning District, Map 27, Parcel 97, Mashpee, MA. (Continued from 7/23/25, 9110125, and 11/12/25 at the request of the Attorney). Attorney Christopher Kirrane represented the applicants for their request for a Written Finding. The property is located in the R-3 Zoning District which requires 40,000 sq. ft., 150 ft. of frontage, minimum front yard setback of 40 ft., minimum 15 ft. side and rear yard setbacks, maximum lot coverage of 20%, and 50 ft. setback from the wetlands. This case has four nonconformities. The lot size is 19,000 sq. ft. of upland. There's a small portion of the lot in the flood zone. The total lot size is 19,000 sq. ft. The 50 ft. setback from the pond requires relief from §174-33. The frontage is 103 ft., where 150 ft. is required. The existing deck located on the side of the house is only 2.1 ft. from the property line and is a nonconforming condition. The front yard setback on the original plan depicted a nonconforming condition and a revised plan was submitted and was measured as 40 ft. and is now a conforming condition. The existing deck is 2.1 ft. from the side yard setback, and will improve with the new deck to 10.3 ft. The Board read the Conservation Department comments into the record; "Resource Areas: Riverfront buffer zone & Buffer zone to Mashpee Pond. NOI application was approved with a unanimous vote by the Commission due to reduction in lawn area, stormwater control upgrades, and wildlife habitat improvements will be a benefit Mashpee Pond & Mashpee River." The Board of Health comments were read into the record; "Has no issues. House to remain 4-bedroom, septic to be moved to new location and upgraded to I/A technology. Septic plans must be submitted to Health Department Permiteyes for septic approval." The existing lot coverage is 18.17%, and the proposed is 19.63%, and is under the 20% requirement. There were no more comments from the Board. 2
