It appearing that notice of said li:s-ring has been given by sending notice there-
of to the petitioner and all those owners of property deemed by the Board to be

catior in the Yarmouth Sun on 6/29/83 and 7/6/83, the hearing was opened and held on
the date first above written.
The following appeared in favor of the petition: Michael Stusse, Attorney for peti-

The following appeared in opposition: None.
Reasons for decision:
Ibis is a petition to construct and maintain on property described in the Appeal
Document, an electronic Bank Teller :..Lusk, at the precise location described and
depicted on the Site Plan and Survey compiled by Technical Planning Assoc. and Low 6
Weller,Inc, dated .iune 21, 1984, and submitted by petitioner in support of its request.
Petitioner's proloerty is located in the Highway Commercial District as respects
its zoning classification. The site chosen for the electronic Bank Teller Kiosk is
located in a large parking area which services several commercial establishments located
around the perimeter of the parking lot. The precise spot chosen for the Kiosk is in
an area seldom needed by the other commercial businesses for parking needs of their
respective customers. At one time, this particular spot was the site of a 'Tote -mat"
Kiosk, which use was heretofore abandoned. At present, the entire parking area is
considered a non -conforming use because of non compliance with the parking and loading
requirements, and buffer strip requirements of the current zoning by -lay:. The Board
is advised that the proposed electronic Kiosk will house electronic machines, witr nc
human employees attendant, and its presence will not generate substantial additions:
traffic.
The Board finds that the proposed construction and use of this Kiosk is a use w-ic!
Is in general harmony with the intent and purposes of a Highway Comercial District.
Although the Board is of the opinion, and has so required in its decision, that the
petitioner should construct the buffer strips shown on the site plan and plat of curve•:
submitted by petitioner. The Board feels that further compliance with the parking
requirements of the zoning by -lag can be waived or reduced under the autho rit-, of Se_.

3114 ka) and (c) of the zoning by-law. As respects the parking lot here in quest i:: ,
and its current use by the commercial establishments on its perimeter, special cir-
cumstances exist and render a lesser provision for parking adequate for all parking
needs, including the proposed kiosk and the customers it will attract. The variou!�
commercial establishments using this parking lot have a Teak demand eccuring at
different times, and the very nature of some of these businesses have peculiarities
of use which render usual measurements of demand invalid.
In addition to the foregoing if the construction of the described Kiosk is to be
considered both a change in use of a prior non -conforming use, or an extension or
alteration of the Lame, the Board finds that under the provisions of Sec. 1532 of the
zoning by-law such change, extension or alteration will not be substantially more
detrimental to the neighborhood thasi the existing non -conforming use, especially when
considered in the light of the improved islands and buffer strips which the petitionner
is required to make in order to validate this grant of a special permit.
The *petitioner is therefore granted a special permit to construct and maintain
an electronic bank teller Kiosk on an existing concrete pad as requested, provided,
however,that the Kiosk structure is constructed as respects size, exterior appearance
and landscaping in substantial conformance to speciman Kiosk shown on specific photo-
graph submitted by petitioner as evidence at the hearing on this appeal; and provided
further that the petitioner construct the islands and buffer strips (4 in number),
along the perimeter of its property abutting Route 28, of the size and at the locations
uborm on the site plan and survey referred to above.
Members of Board voting: Donald Henderson, David Oman, Myer Singer, Thomas Kennedy,
Les Campbell. All voted unanimously in favor of granting petition as requested.
Therefore,the partition is granted as requested for all of the above stated reasons
and with the oonditions as stated heretofore.
No permit issued until 20 days from the date of filing the decision with the Town
Clerk. 1
