The Chairman called the meeting to order and read the petition. All abutters were notified and the necessary correspondence was made in the Yarmouth Sun. Mr. Oman: We have a letter here from Mr. Lawton, Executive Secretary, in favor of the church building onto the existing building. Mr. Malkonian & Mr.Elliott: The minister represented us at the Selectmen's meeting but he is unable to be here tonight. We want to build an addition to our thrift shop operated by the church. We offered to purchase some of the property from the town to do this. There is about 15' of grass, brush, cans and trash. At that time, they asked us to come to you to be able to build up to the property line. About 10' would be left between our building and the pavement. Mr. Renkainen: They haven't addressed themselves to a special permit - do you have anything to say on that? Would this create any nuisance, hazard or congestion? Mr.Malkonian: No, there hasn't been any. We would also be tearing an old building down and replacing it with a cement block structure. It would be about 10' to the pavement. Mr. Oman: Would this be on the same foundation? Mr. Malkonian: No, it would be about 6' difference. Mr. Singer: There is a jog in the building - could you fill in that space and not go as close? Mr. Malkonian: That would prevent cars from backing in and come back out. Mr. Singer: That would be squaring off the building. Mr. Malkonian: That would be too narrow a building. That kind of width wouldn't be enough. The jog isn't included in the thrift shop. That is a meeting room for the chruch. Mr. Singer: Does this parking lot connect with the town parking lot? Mr.Malkonian: We have a chain up when the church is not in use. Mr. Elliott: It is a very strong chain and it prevents anyone from going through. We open it when the custodian is there. Under normal conditions, it is open there is a meeting there about 3 times a day. Mr. Oman: When is the chain down and when is it up? Mr. Malkonian: It is down during church services and when there are church functions. The chain would be down at those times, and in the evening when there there are meetings. Hearin- losed. MEMO TO: Board of Appeals FROM: Robert C. Lawton, Jr. Executive Secretary a/ SUBJECT: Appeal of the United Methodist Church . . DATE: November 5, 1980 At their regular meeting on November 4, 1980 the Yarmouth Board of Selectmen reviewed the request of the United Methodist Church to place an addition on their existing wooden building known as the Fishermen's House which butts the town parking lot on Rte. 28, South Yarmouth. The Board of Selectmen would like to express to the Board of Appeals their support for the granting of a variance from the Zoning By-Law to allow the church to build theaddition next to or on the town's property line. In reviewing the situation the town does not plan to alter the existing parking lot and there is currently a grass and brush buffer between the parking lot and the churches lot line. This buffer would continue to be in existence and provide the necessary space between automobiles and the proposed building. The Board hopes that this variance will be acted upon favorably by the Board of Appeals. If we can supply you with any further information please feel free to contact me. jd cc: Dr. Joseph Carpenter Pastor, United Methodist Church TOWN OF YARMOUTH RECEIVED BOARD OF APPEALS 1981 JUN -3 PH 1: 26 OWNER: NAME: South Yarmouth United Methodist Church APPEALS # /-7‘ I 'f t,i CF YAR1 UUTN A ( a# '1357FkriES: Yarmouth, MA' 02664 PETITIONER: NAME: ADDRESS: BOARD OF APPEALS, YARMOUTH, MASS.
