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 petitioner is Troy Thomas who appears concerning property located at 58 Rainbow Road, West
Yarmouth, Massachusetts, which property is in an R-25 zoning district. The petitioner seeks a
Special Permit or, alternatively, a Variance concerning front setback relief, so as to construct an
addition in the front setback on a pre-existing non -conforming lot. The property sits on a corner lot
bounded by Rainbow Road and Berry Avenue. The proposed addition will face Berry Avenue. If
allowed, and when completed, the addition will be 28.3 feet from Berry Avenue.
The Board concurred that the proposed addition will be a significant enhancement to the front of
the home. It will enhance the property without being any detriment to the neighborhood or town.
Further, if enforced, the bylaws would involve a substantial hardship to the petitioner in that it
would deny the utilitarian use of this modest home and proposed addition.
The Board felt that the criteria for the grant of a Special Permit was appropriate to consider, and
the Board found that no nuisance, hazard or congestion would be created, nor would there be any
substantial harm to the established or future character of the neighborhood or Town, should the
relief be granted.
No one spoke in favor, or in opposition to the petition, and no exhibits were rc*mefft rTEST:

At the request of the petitioner, the Variance request in the petition was allowed to be withdrawn,
without prejudice, upon a motion made by Mr. Igoe, and seconded by Mr. Martin, which motion
passed on a 5-0 voice vote.
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
