MEETING MINUTES MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APEALS MARCH 25, 2026 Attorney Kirrane addressed the abutter letter regarding setbacks of any overhangs, which is exempt from any zoning in this project. Mr. Morris concurred. Mr. Morris agreed that the redesign has improved, and that the construction should comply with the fire-resistant material under the building code. Attorney Elizabeth Lake, who represents the abutter at 26 Wilsons Grove, provided the Board with a letter that she summarized. She explained to the Board that her client does not oppose any new construction but believes the new design of the house is expanding the bulk, elevation, and density to the size of this very small 25 ft. lot. Ms. Christina Willwerth at 26 Wilsons Grove addressed the Board and is very concerned about the density of the proposed house. She believes the new structure will be 60% larger than her house and will be incredibly imposing. She is concerned with the maintenance and the rebuilding of the new house in only a 3-4 ft. space. Mr. Jeff Neild approached the Board and mentioned he was present at the Conservation hearing. He has been responsive to the concerns of the neighbors for his family's house project and believes that the new design and reduction of the new house have addressed the concerns of the neighbor. He respectfully asked that the Board approve this project. Mr. Morris asked Mr. Neild, the type of material will be used for the piers. Mr. Neild said it will be poured concrete.
