FILED WITH TOWN CLERK: May 12, 2022
PETITION NO: 4949
HEARING DATE: April 28, 2022
PETITIONER: James Igoe
PROPERTY:6 Merrymount Road,West Yarmouth, MA
Map 23,Parcel 81
Zoning District: R-25
Title: Document# 68377, Cert of Title No. 26404
MEMBERS PRESENT AND VOTING: Chairman Steven DeYoung,Douglas Campbell,Megan
Homer and Jay Fraprie
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
Cape Cod Times,the hearing opened and held on the date stated above.
The Applicant seeks to reverse the March 9, 2022 decision of the Building Commissioner; and/or
a Variance from §203.5 to establish the lot as buildable, and allow a single family dwelling on
the lot. Petitioner also seeks, in the alternative, either a Special Permit or a Variance to allow for the
construction of a single family dwelling on this lot.
The Property is located in the R-25 Zoning District and is currently a bare lot containing 9,600
square feet and 80 feet of frontage on Merrymount Road. The current owner of the property,
Eleanore Townsend,took title pursuant to a deed dated January 18, 1961, and this information has
been verified in a letter of former Deputy Building Commissioner James D. Brandolini dated
January 21, 2021, and again in a letter dated March 9, 2022 from the present Building
Commissioner, Mark Grylls. It is from this letter that the Applicant's appeal arises, seeking to
overturn the Decision of the Building Commissioner. The abutting property, which shares a
common rear boundary with the subject property,is located at 45 Pine Cone Drive. This deed was
conveyed to Ms. Townsend in December of 1960, and it is this common ownership, as of 1961
which the building department believes merged the lots, pursuant to the common law doctrine of
merger, and rendered the Property unbuildable.
As noted in the Building Letter,the lots were created by a plan dated in January of 1926, at which
time the lot size was conforming. On March 7, 1960, the minimum lot area for a parcel in this
zoning district was increased to 10,000 square feet as a minimum. This change resulted in these
