ZBA dismisses petition for camping occupancy for lack of standing
Summary
The Zoning Board dismissed petition 5147 because the petitioner, Christopher Wilson, was not listed as an owner on the filing; the board said only owners may seek the relief and noted enforcement matters are for other town departments.
The Yarmouth Zoning Board of Appeals dismissed petition 5147 on Dec. 12 for lack of standing after determining the person who filed the petition was not the owner listed on the application.
The agenda listed the petition as filed for Christopher Wilson. At the hearing the board asked whether he was an owner; Christopher Wilson said he is a co‑owner and that Brian Wilson is an owner. The board said the petition, as filed, named a different person and concluded the petitioner did not have standing to seek relief. The board dismissed the petition for lack of proper party/interest and advised that any property violations would be handled by the building and health departments.
The board said an owner or owners may refile and the ZBA would be willing to hear the matter if the proper party applies.
