Materials and documents submitted,utilized at this meeting (On file in Planning Board Office):
• Form 11 —Large Home Review Application and Planning Board Statement of Litigation Policy
• Plan LHR,prepared by Cavanaro Consulting, dated: 05/31/16
• Plans A1,A2,A3, S1, A4, A5 prepared by Axiom Architects, dated 05/06/16
• Comments submitted by ZBA,BOH, Conservation,Water Dept. and Fire Dept.
This is the same plan the Board reviewed for the ZBA Special Permit application on May 25, 2016 at which time
the Board recommended the ZBA approve the Special Permit. Property is marsh on 2 sides. Existing house had
porch which was at the 20 ft. front setback— current plan puts bulk of the house at 30 ft. from street. Entire lot
floods in the 100 yr. storm so entire structure must be kept out of water on a pier foundation. House is fairly bulky
but they have kept it as compact as possible to fit on the site. First floor is 1,912 sq.ft. not including the porch or
garage. Second floor is 2,309 sq.ft. and two stories right across. Needed square footage within the structure to
provide storage and mechanical space that would otherwise have been in the basement— 661 sq.ft. in attic provides
this space. Height is 31'3" to midpoint and 39'3" to the peak. Total residential gross floor area is 4,882 sq.ft. The
dormer/kid's room area is about 2.5 ft. into the setback. Design of dormers and gables should reduce the visual
bulking in the front of the house. Two abutters who have had concerns in the past are now supporting the project.
MOTION: By Member Dickey to recommend the Building Commissioner issue a building permit for this
project conditioned upon standard boiler plate conditions including receipt of approvals from all other
required Boards/Commissions and, the applicant shall return to the Planning Board if the pending Special
Permit is not approved by the ZBA and, the applicant revises plans for a new ZBA Special Permit
submission.
