APPLICATIONS
Philos-Jensen, Dan & Courtney, 95 Pine Lane, Barnstable, Map 278, Parcel 029, built 1976
Remove and replace existing front stoop. Construct new 12 FT x 16 FT shed. Remove existing deck. Build new deck on north side wall.
Swap sliding door on south side of house with window on south side of house. Install outdoor shower.
Dan Jensen is present.
Dan Jensen- Orginal deck is worn and needs to be demolished; would like more sunlight. Front stoop is rotting and
would like to replace with better structure. Outdoor shower would be on the south side inline where the deck stairs
currently are; shed would be at the end of the driveway; 15 or more feet away from the property line or railroad.
Ryan- Structure is not historic in nature. Back deck is aged. Improvements are appropriate.
Wendy- Agree with Ryan. Keeping in style. Materials appropriate. No concerns.
Lesley- Outdoor shower in the back. Front stoop looks good. Painted. Everything is fine.
Bett- Concur with other committee comments. Very remote area.
Public comment: None.

Lesley- Bump out. Fine.
Ryan- Rear elevation. Any details on the windows?
Pat- Marvin windows. Black exterior. Match exisiting windows. No grills.

Mackenzie-Betty, Keith and Margaret, 3280 Main Street, Barnstable, Map 299, Parcel 035, built 1930
Rear second floor addition within existing footprint & second shed to match existing.
Keith Mackenzie-Betty present.
Keith- Shed is another shed as one previously approved. Hit a road block with conservation. Keep within envelope
of house. Build on top existing footprint. Keep in style of latest verson of the house. Greek revival. Two little bay
windows at the rear to look over the marsh. Replace all copper on the house.
Ryan- Shed is the only visible item. Where in relation to first shed?
Keith- Paralell and 15 feet away.
Ryan- Doesn’t sit wonderful but understand the situation.
Wendy- Addition looks nice. Modifications fit well. Not sure about the shed. Looks commercial and not
residential. Don’t typically see two identical outbuildings like that.
Lesley- Like the additions to the house and detail.
Keith- Can’t build parallel with existing house due to conservation. Want to do more at a later date but for now this
is what he can do.
Lesley- Understand the situation.
Bett, Addition is very appropriate. That land drops down. From the road we’d only see the roof. Don’t really have
any issue.
Ryan, Given the functionality of the second shed, feel a bit more comfortable with the proposal.
Wendy, A single building would look great.
Keith, that is the ultimate plan. Bridging building would be the best.
Public comment: None.
