9:45 AM: DISCUSSION ~ GEORGE SOURATI FOR PAUL HORNBLOWER;

51 Squibnocket Farm Road (Map 35 Lot 1.3): Discussion of changes to plans approved with Special Permit previously issued; Extension of Previously Issued Special Permits

On September 26, 2018, a special permit was issued under Article 6 Section 6.11B2, Article 12 Section 12.4C and Article 12 Section 12.6B. It was to renovate the existing single-family residence and “barn space” and build a 132 sf breezeway to a proposed two-story addition. The permit expires on September 26, 2021 and the applicant is requesting a 1 year extension.

 

On January 23, 2019, a special permit was issued under Article 4 Section 4.2A3, Article 11 Section 11.6A2d5 and Article 12 Section 12.4D1. It was to construct a 20’ X 40’ in-ground swimming pool with automatic cover with a 4-foot safety enclosures and sound-insulated pool shed. The plans for the pool have been changed to a 15’ X 40’ pool size and the location of the pool has been moved to be parallel with the southern property line. The pool will meet the 50-foot setback but the enclosure will be 39’ from the lot line. The originally approved plans had the pool enclosure at 30’ from the lot line at its closest point. The applicant would like a determination if these changes will require a new special permit application.

 

The permit expires on January 23, 2022 and, if the changes are found inconsequential, the applicant is requesting a 1 year extension.
