Ald t <br />• <br />1. <br />M.Stevenson <br />hearing. <br />BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING - OCTOBER 4, 1929. <br />A meeting of the Board of Appeals was held <br />at the Selectmen's Room, Town Office Building at 8 <br />P.M. Messrs. A. N. Maddison, Chairman, Roland W. <br />Baldrey, Clerk, C. Edward Glynn and T. A. Custance <br />were present. Helen C. Whittemore was also present. <br />Mr. Matthew Stevenson appeared on behalf of <br />Mrs. Minnie B. Stevenson. Mr. Stevenson informed <br />the Board that through an arrangement with the Bank <br />he was able to secure a five foot strip of land <br />from property purchased from him by Richard J. <br />Spencer, making his lot with a frontage of 70' <br />and a depth of 102'. This brought his lot line within <br />3' of the barn on the Spencer property. He also <br />endeavored to purchase some land from Dr. Henry C. <br />Valentine, but Dr. Valentine would not sell inasmuch <br />as he desires the lot to build a home upon for his son. <br />Mr. Stevenson stated that the house was to be <br />set upon the lot with a 30' set back, that being 10' <br />more than required in the Zoning Law, and that the <br />house would be probably at least 30' from the barn. <br />He was to place his driveway between the barn and <br />his own house. It appeared also that the barn was <br />closer than 3' to the other lot line parallel with <br />Vine Brook Road. Mr. Stevenson stated that he <br />intended to build a garage on his premises. <br />No objectors were present. <br />After hearing the evidence presented. by Mr. <br />Stevenson on behalf of Minnie B. Stevenson it was <br />"Voted to vary the Zoning Law by granting permission <br />to Minnie B. Stevenson to use lot #4 on Vine Brook <br />Roadto erect a dwelling thereon, provided said lot <br />has a frontage of not less than 70' and an area of <br />not less than 7000' and the house be set back not <br />less than 30' from the line of Vine Brook Road." <br />All members of the Board being present and voting <br />in favor, signed the following order: <br />The Board of Appeals, acting under General Laws, <br />Chapter 40, sec. 27, having received a written petition <br />addressed to it by Minnie B. Stevenson, a copy of which <br />'is hereto annexed, held a public hearing thereon of <br />which notice was mailed to the petitioner and to the <br />owners of all property deemed by the Board to be <br />affected thereby as they appear on the most recent local <br />tax list, and also advertised in the Lexington Times - <br />Minute Man, a newspaper published in Lexington, which <br />hearing was held in the Selectmen's Room in the Town <br />Office Building on Friday, the fourth day of October <br />1929 at eight o'clock P:M.
