' Notice of the hearing has been given by sending notice thereof to the Petitioner and all those owners of
property as required by law, and to the public by posting notice of the hearing and publishing in The
Register, the hearing opened and held on the date stated above.
a The Petitioner is Steven Hetzel, principal of Lewis Bay Builders. He seeks relief pursuant to
§ 104.3.2 of the Zoning By-laws or, alternatively, a Variance pursuant to §202.5.
u Other than Mr. Hetzel, no one spoke in favor or in opposition to the Petition and no exhibits were
received at the time of the hearing. It was explained to the Board that a Building Permit had been
issued for the enclosure of a deck area and to make it a 3 season room_ At the time of the grant of
the Building Permit, the structure stood 19,2 feet from the sideline. [Note, this is a corner lot
which would technically make the Berwick Road facing side a "front". However, the Board
2 concurred that the true front of the home faced Pine Cone Drive.] When the actual improvements
were made, it was found that the distance from the street to the new structure was 19.1 feet, the
difference being the addition of shingles and corner boards to the new structure.
The Board was in unanimous agreement that the distance and difference following construction
was de minimis. It is of no consequence to the safety of people, largely indistinguishable in terms
of the distance and creates no undue hazard, nuisance nor congestion. Further, the relief sought
poses no detriment to the current or future character of the neighborhood or town. The Board
concurred generally that the grant of the relief was appropriate in the form of a Special Permit
�- rather than a Variance. A motion was made by Mr. Baron, seconded by Mr. Frapde i6 grant the
requested Special Permit without conditions. On this motion so made and seconded, the 11'6ai4
voted unanimously in favor and the Special Permit was, therefore, granted.A TftIJE COPY A ST

At the request of the Petitioner, Mr. Martin made a motion, seconded by Mr. Fraprie, to allow the
Petitioner to withdraw the request for relief by Variance, and such withdrawal to be without
prejudice_ The Board voted unanimously in favor of this motion and, consequently, the request
for Variance was allowed to be withdrawn, without prejudice.
No permit shall issue until 20 days from the filing of this decision with the Town Clerk. Appeals
from this decision shall be made pursuant to MGL c40A section 17 and must be filed within 20
days after filing of this notice/decision with the Town Clerk. Unless otherwise provided herein, the
Special Permit shall lapse if a substantial use thereof has not begun within 24 months. (See bylaw
§ 103.2.5, MGL c40A §9)
