TOWN OF HOLDEN
ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS
HEARING
JUSTIN BROOKS V 1105
The Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on May 19, 2011 at 7:00 p.m. in the Selectmens Room of the Starbard Building, 1204 Main Street, Holden, MA on the Petition of Justin Brooks for property lo-cated at 83 Powers Road for a Variance from side yard setback re-quirements on a corner lot to allow for the addition of a second attached single bay garage.
Members in attendance: R. Spakauskas, S. Annunziata, R. Fraser, J. Deignan and R. Butler.
The Chairman called the meeting to order. Since there was no public in attendance, R. Fraser made a motion that the reading of the application and Findings of Fact be waived. S. Annunziata seconded. Vote 5-0, motion approved.
Mr. Brooks addressed the Board. He would like to add a second garage bay on his corner lot. Most of the other houses in the area have two bays. There would be a violation of setback requirements to the property line for the garage and, therefore, the reason for seeking the variance. He assured the Board that this structure would not block anyone’s view.
The Board briefly discussed the fact that a corner lot has different setback requirements.
The public hearing was closed at 7:30 p.m.
The Board voted 5-0 to approve the variance request with the following condition: 1) The southern corner which goes to Donald Avenue where the corner foundation is should be staked by a registered land surveyor.
