Re: Petition # 49773: James and Mora Modisette
219 Pleasant Street
South Yarmouth, MA 02664
The following addresses my objections to Petition # 49773:
1. The set-back request : I am not aware of any factual basis fortheBoardtoallowtheset-back request, which would imply that a 30ft . setback would be an unduly harsh restriction. The Petitioner hasampleroomonhispropertyofaboutoneacre.The housemorethanapproximately50ft. from Pleasant St. , allowingmoreg forcurrentlythanenoughspacetobuildasizableaddition.
2. The proposed use of the property does not conform with thecurrentuseoftheotherpropertiesonAuntJane 's Road or, to myknowledge, the use of any property on Pleasant Street. Ship Shops isanexceptionbutiszonedforcommercialuseandhasbeenin
p
business for more than seventy years. In my neighborhood inBrookline, MA, my primary residence, it would be inconceivable thatacollectorofautomobilescouldlegallymaintainagaragewithevenafewvehiclesforeitherprivateorcommercialpurposes . As anexample,
an automobile collector friend of mine in Brookline storeshisautomobilesinaneighboringtownwherehecanlawfullystoreandservicehiscollectionofcars .If there is not currently legal precedent in South Yarmouth topreventthestorageandmaintenanceofvehiclesofallkindsin aresidentialarea, as in Brookline, I implore the Yarmouth Board ofAppealstoactnowbeforeourneighborhoodisbesetwithagrowingtrendofhousesusedforotherthanstrictlyresidentialpurposes.
