COURT CLERK—Leon L. Dary, Jr.
of Ilarnstanle , former executive
director of the GOP State Commit-
tee yesterday was named clerk of
Barnstable 2nd District Court to
succeed John R. Agna in the
$12,464 post.
Stating that there were condi-
tions affecting a parcel of land at
66 Sea Street , Hyannis which did
not affect the zoning district gen-
erally, Barnstable Appeals Board
this week approved a variance
for a 15-unit apartment building
at that location.
Robert Nye , petitioner at the
March 31 hearing before Chair -
man Robert E. O'Neil , Buford
Ooins and William B. Shaw, sou-
ght to vary Section M of the zon-
ing code to permit construction of
three more units than permitted
and to reduce the setback from
Sea Street to 22 feet.
According to Attorney Kenneth
E. Wilson , representing Mr. Nye,
the building will be connected
with town sewerage. Construction
will be of block and brick , two
end a half stories high with five
units on each level.
Mr. Wnson noted at the hearing
that buildings on either side of
the land in the Residence A zone
had approximately the same set-
back or less than that requested.
One condition attached to the
granting of the variance was that
the entrance closest to Sea Street
be eliminated and the remaining
entrance be widened to 28 feet .
Another decision filed by the
board was the granting of a spe-
cial permit to Richard and Marie
Sederberg for extension of a non-
conforming use at 933 Falmouth
Road , Hyannis. The Sederbergs ,
who operate Cape Maid Farms,
plan a 40 by 50-foot addition to
the rear of the existing building
to be used for .storage.
It would be built some distance
from any abutting property own-
ers, screened by woods, and would
not be visible from the street.
None of the present off street par-
king would be eliminated by the
new construction.
Centerville photographer John
B. Lane was given a variance for
the construction of a portrait stu-
dio attached to a single family
home to be built in the Residence
C area of Route 28. A motel abuts
the land on one side and a sand
pit lies to the rear. No exterior
displays are planned by Mr. Lane ,
nor any outside signs. A four-car
parking space is included in the
plans.
A special permit was issued to
Eli and Cecille Cohen to extend
non- conforming use by remodell-
ing a garage f:jr apartment use
at 32 Dartmouth Street , Hyannis
in a Residence A zone.
The property has been used for
rental apartments since 1947, prior
to zoning. The existing building
lias four dwelling units. Planned
for the garage is a three- room
apartment of living room , bed -
room , kitchen and bath with no
exterior change . Ampt" parking
is available.
Extension of another non-confor-
ming use was allowed In a special
permit given Hyannis Holiday
Motel on Ocean Stre3t for the buil-
ding of an 18- by 36-foot enclosed
swimming pool in front of the mo-
tel.
The present parking area would
not be diminished by the addition
nor would the pool interfere with
access to or from the motel.
Alton F. Anderson was given a
special permit to build a 59-foot
pier with a 4 by 16-foot ramp at-
tached at Channel Point Road ,
Hyannis. No bulkhead or filling
at the site is planned. The length
of the pier was of concern to the
board , though it is not within its
juris diction. Selectmen have al ¦
ready approved plans for the con-
struction.
