DECISION OF THE CAPE COD COMMISSION
SUMMARY
The Cape Cod Commission (Commission), through its Regulatory Committee, has
determined that the project as proposed by North Bay Partners Inc., represented by
Attorney Michael Ford of Stinson & Ford, which is described as the proposed
conversion of a building at 22 Attucks Lane in Hyannis, MA, formerly occupied by a
lithography business to professional office condominiums, does not warrant further
review by the Commission. This decision is rendered subject to Section 3(f)(1) and
3(f)(2) of the Enabling Regulations. This decision is rendered pursuant to a vote of the
Regulatory Committee on April 26, 2004.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project under consideration by the Regulatory Committee was the conversion of an
existing building at 22 Attucks Lane, Hyannis to eight (8) professional office
condominiums. The site had been formerly occupied by a lithography company through
2001. Another company called Widax, which designed and manufactured Internet
A
2
equipment, had sought to develop the building as an office technology center in 2002
but was unable to do so because of bankruptcy. ::•:
The site was the subject of a Cape Cod Commission review•'(as'a Development of
Regional Impact) in 1993. At that time, the building was 19,392 square feet in size, and
On-Cape Lithographers proposed a 7,742 square foot addition and associated site work
to accommodate additional storage and expansion of bindery operations. The DRI
review resulted in the issuance by the Commission of an August 19, 1993 DRI decision
with conditions. The project that was the subject of the 1993 DRI review never went
forward.
Also, in the time between occupancy of the site by On-Cape Lithographers and its
ownership by North Bay Partners, a portion of the building was raised for construction of
a second floor. As such, the square footage of the building was increased from 19,768
in approximately 2001 to 28,787 square feet (an increase of 9,019 square feet).The site
is supplied by sewer.

Project Description
The project under consideration by the Regulatory Committee is whether or not the
North Bay Partners use of a property at 22 Attucks Lane in Barnstable should be
reviewed as a Development of Regional Impact (DRI) according to the provision in
Section 4(b) of the Cape Cod Commission's (Commission) Enabling Regulations.
The property in question is the site and building formerly owned by a company called
Widax Corporation, but formerly occupied and used by On-Cape Lithographers.
According to information supplied by Attorney Michael Ford (see attached), representing
North Bay Partners, Widax, a company that would have used the site as a technology
center for design and manufacture of high-speed Internet equipment, took title to it in a
deed dated October 31, 2002, but was unable to establish its use at the site. On-Cape
Lithographers, a printing and lithography company, occupied and used the site for its
business through 2001.
