ZBA approves reconstruction and special permit at 60 Grandview Drive; third-floor use limited to storage
Summary
A special permit for reconstruction at 60 Grandview Drive was approved Nov. 14. Petitioners will raise/replace the structure, keep height to 34 feet, and the board agreed that the attic/third-floor should be limited to storage per building-department guidance.
The Yarmouth Zoning Board of Appeals approved petition 5146 on Nov. 14, granting a special permit for the reconstruction of the house at 60 Grandview Drive. Petitioners Aldo and Sylvia Resideo explained they will take the house down to grade and rebuild on the existing footprint with an added second floor, a garage extension and modest foundation-height increase. The architect kept the proposed building height at 34 feet, one foot below the allowable 35-foot limit.
Board members confirmed the application had been reviewed by conservation and neighborhood association representatives and saw no recorded opposition. The building department indicated the top attic/third-floor area would be restricted to non-habitable storage unless separately permitted; the petitioners agreed to that restriction. The board moved to approve the special permit as submitted and the petitioners then withdrew an unnecessary variance request without prejudice.
As with other decisions, the board noted the standard 20-day appeal window and advised the petitioners to record the decision with the registry of deeds after it is clocked with the town clerk.
