During the public hearing on July 2, 2026, abutting landowner Judith Vaughan requested and received confirmation from the board and applicant about the proposed shed’s setbacks from the property line. The minutes record that Vaughan’s question concerned the setback dimensions as they relate to the shed placement.
The exchange took place after applicant Alexa McGrath described the proposed prefabricated 10 ft. by 16 ft. shed at 361 Sanderlin Drive and stated it would sit 203 feet from the lake. After the brief setback clarification, Board member Ruth Kennedy moved and Bobbie Jewett seconded a motion to close the hearing; the board then proceeded into private deliberation.
