1. H~'~!,~G: Dewey A. Dyer
Mr. Burk~ read the legal notice in the appeal of Dewey A. Dyer requesting a variatiou
of Sec. 6, Para. 6.61 and 6.63 of the Zoning By-Law so as to permit a one stall garage
addition on north side of existing dwelling on the premises, located at east side of
Milk Street and known as 56 Ndlk Street.
Mr. Dyer was present and spoke on his behalf and showed the plans to the Beard. There
were appro~ately six people present for the hearing. The proposed addition would
extend one foot, leaving 19 feet to the lot line.
Mr. Roland Sherman spo~e, re~resenting Mr. & Mrs. Perkins, abutters, stating he v~nted
to see the plans te determine the distance of the addition frem the side-line.
Jennie Marino, an abutter, objected, sang she wants things left as they , he is
coming too close as it is.
Mr. Shields asked Mr. Dyer Lf this addition was a one car garage. Mr. Dyer answered
that at present there is a one-car garage, this is to make an additional stall. This
stall would be 15 feet wide, the same as the present stall, so that .it would match the
other garage and have it look as part of the house, not just 'look tacked on.
Mr. Shields said that the average garage is between 10-12 feet.
Mr. Sherman said that he doesn,t think this situation calls for a variance. He could
have the front the same without jutting over one foot; however, he would have no
objection to a 1 ft. overlap. He says this does not meet all the requirements of the
statute for the variance - a ~ariance should not be granted.
Mr. Burke made a motion to take the matter under advisement. Mr. Drummond seconded the
motion and the vote was unanimous.
The Board then discussed the hearing. The members questioned the stamp ou the ~lans.
Mr. Dyer has his ~,~i stamp.. Plans require the stamp of a Certified Engineer,
~r. O'Leary read the reasons for granting a variance to see if they applied to this
petition and also read a letter from Town Counsel stating that all four reasons mst
apply in order to grant a variance.
Mr. Burke said that if nobody had opposed, the variance would probably be all right,
but the neighbors have objected.
Mr. Shields said that these plans could not be recorded because of ~he improper stamp.
Mr. G41man said there is no hardship involved.
Mr. Burke made a motion to DE~ the variance. Mr. Morton seconded the motion and the ·
vote was unanimous. This variance was denied because the applicaut will suffer no
hardship Lf the variance is denied.
