Pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 40A s.5, the Maynard Zoning Board of Appeals will hold a remote public hearing on ZOOM video, to hear all persons interested in the application filed by owner Daniel Cormier, 30-32 Walnut Street, Maynard, MA 01754. 

The subject property, 30-32 Walnut Street, is a two-family dwelling located in the General Residential (GR) zoning district. Per Sections 3.1.2 and 8.3 of the Maynard Protective Zoning By-Laws, the applicant seeks Special Permit approval to operate an Accessory Home-Based Business (Type-B) at 30-32 Walnut Street, and to allow overnight outdoor parking of two additional commercial vehicles associated with this business on the property.

Pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 40A s.5, the Maynard Zoning Board of Appeals will hold a remote public hearing on ZOOM video, to hear all persons interested in the application filed by owners Tete and Elizabeth Cobblah, 25 Garfield Ave., Maynard, MA 01754. 

The subject property, 25 Garfield Ave., is a pre-existing nonconforming single-family dwelling, due to insufficient front setback (25 feet required, 13.9 feet provided). The home is located on a nonconforming lot in the S-1 Single Family zoning district. The nonconformity is due to insufficient lot size (10,000 s.f. required, 8,000 s.f. provided) and insufficient frontage (100ft required, 80ft provided). The applicants are requesting a Variance granting relief from Section 4 of the Zoning By-laws, to construct an addition to the property that would extend the existing nonconforming front setback and create a new nonconformity by exceeding building coverage limits (15%/1,200 sf. allowable, 21.3%/1,703 sf. proposed).
