O'Leary, Chairman; William Morton, Secretary; Arthur Drummond, John J. Shields and James A. Deyo. There were 16 people present for the meeting. 1. HEARI~: Egilda D'Agata. Mr. Morton read the legal notice in the appeal of Egilda D'Agata who re- quested a variation of Sec. 7.23 of the Zoning By-Law so as to permit the extensio~ of the present garage and join lit to the house on the premises located at the south side of Herrick Road, 59 feet distant from the corner of Youn~Road and known as No. 41 Herrick Road. He also read the Building Inspector's refusal. Atty. Reno Orlando represented the petitioner. He explained that the household has three vehicles that have to be left in the open. This variance would allow them to put the three vehicles in the garage. The proposed addition would be 28 feet long and joined to the house on the porch side and would be approximately three feet from the lot line. Atty. Donald F. Smith, who represented Mr. & Mrs. Bellino, immediate abutters to the proposed addition, said this addition would be no more than 12 feet from their home. It would also be overcrowding the land, the lot contains only 4,300 sq. ft. and this addition would require ~n additional 300-&O0 sq. ft. It would be a fire hazard because of the close proximity of the garage and Mr. Bellino's home. This would be derogating from the purpose of the Zond~By-Law. Mr. Lambert, 16 Herrick Road, spoke of the dangers of these three vehicles because of the school children in the area. Mr. Shields made a motion to take the petition under advisement; Mr. Morton seconded the motion and the vote was unanimous. 2. HEARING: Dorothy O. Archambault.
