BOARD OF APPEALS
We are writing this letter, regarding Petition 5053 to build a new home at 21 Lewis Bay Rd, West Yarmouth, MA; which
is scheduled on your meeting agenda for September 28, 2023. Our home is an abutting property, at 24 Lorena Rd,
directly behind the applicants.
Please note that we are friendly with the applicants, and are in favor of a home to be built on their property. There are
some nicely designed portions of the proposed home, although we feel it should be scaled back. We initially signed a
petition in favor of the construction, but we did not realize everything that was being built.
The proposed home will not fit with the existing character of the neighborhood, namely the roof deck and exterior
staircases. The roof deck appears invasive and can impact a reasonable expectation of privacy. This is a fairly congested
neighborhood with small lot sizes. Other properties in the neighborhood do not have roof decks above a 3 story home.
Other nearby homes were expanded, while keeping in line with the character of the neighborhood. Please refer to 15
and 27 Lewis Bay Rd.
Thank you.
