DECISION
FILED WITH TOWN CLERK: May 11, 2023
PETITION NO: 5015
HEARING DATE: April 27, 2023
PETITIONER: Matthew P. Hurley
Trustee of the Hurley Realty Trust
PROPERTY: 105 Standish Way, West Yarmouth, MA
Map 29, Parcel 136
Zoning District: R-25
Title: Book 21151, Page 216
MEMBERS PRESENT AND VOTING: Chairman Steven DeYoung, Dick Martin, Jay Fraprie,
John Mantoni and Sean Igoe
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 Matthew P. Hurley, Trustee of the Hurley Realty Trust who seeks relief concerning
property located at 105 Standish Way, West Yarmouth, Massachusetts, which property is in a R-25
zoning district. The applicant was well -represented by Ed Stafford and the petition seeks the
alternative relief of a Special Permit or a Variance for front, side and rear setback relief to raze and
replace a pre-existing, non -conforming structure.
The proposed structure will be on the same footprint as the current structure. When completed, side
and rear setbacks will be reduced while the front setback will not be increased. This property is
located in a neighborhood of small, narrow lots, and any effort to improve/raze and replace a home
will likely need relief. The new structure will reduce the sideline setback from 8 feet to 10 feet on the
northwesterly side. On the northeasterly side, the setback will be reduced from 6 feet to 7.5 feet.
The Board was satisfied with the submission by the petitioner that the ridge of the roof, when
properly measured according to the bylaws, will be 27.0 feet in height. The document referencing
this was one page with a depiction of the home and handwritten notations which the petitioner's
representative assured the Board were accurate in the methodology for determining height. The
proposed home, when completed, is a substantial improvement over the property as it now exists. It
will be consistent with the neighborhood.

No one spoke in favor or in opposition to the petition. No exhibits were received. The Board
Members agreed that the relief could be granted by way of Special Permit and with the condition that
the petitioner move the existing shed to a distance of at least 6 feet from any abutting property line.
The Board Members concurred that the relief was appropriate as a Special Permit, and could be
granted without any undue hazard, nuisance or congestion resulting. The Board agreed that the house
would not be a substantial detriment to the existing or future neighborhood or town.
A motion was made by Mr. Fraprie, and seconded by Mr. Martin to grant the Special Permit on the
sole condition that the shed be moved to a location at least 6 feet from any abutting property line. A
roll call vote was taken with a vote of 5 in favor of the motion, and none opposed. Consequently, the
Special Permit was granted.
At the request of the petitioner's representative, the request for a Variance as set forth within the
petition was asked to be withdrawn, without prejudice, and on a motion made by Mr. Martin, and
seconded by Mr. Mantoni, the Board voted unanimously in favor of such motion.
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)
