foll,~win? points:
A error was made by the engineer which led to the placement
o the house 10 feet too close to the lot line.
he second error was that the wrong petitioner was before the
oard last month (the engineer - not the owner).
f the variance is not granted, Mr. Plugis, the owner, will
uffer a hardship.
- he house is almost complete.
August 10, 1982
Regular Meeting
Plugis - continued
Mr. Plugis owes the bank $80,000 and the bank will not
renew the loan with the cloud on the property.
It would cost between $30,000 and $35,000 to move the house.
This is a situation where, since plot plans are required,
it is quite common to receive a variance.
The granting of the variance will not derogate from the
intent of the Zoning By Law.
The error was discovered several months a~o and construction
ceased at that time.
A land swap is not possible because the house next door would
then be in violation.
No one spoke in favor or opposition to this petition.
MOTION:
SECOND:
VOTE :
by Mr. Trepanier to grant the variance as requested.
by Mr. Frizelle
Unanimous - motion carries.
Chairman Serio left the meeting due to illness and passed the
chair to Vice Chairman Frizelle.
