APPLICANT: Mark Timothy, Inc. Chair Stern read the title of the application into the record. Chair Stern questioned why this application was not submitted with the original plans prior to construction. Bld. Official Desorcv explained that initially the owners did not want a pool, so the plans were amended to included these changes. George Bariso, Project Manager, added that the original plans did not have a place for a pool. In the summer, the property owner decided to have a pool and cabana, which is a separate permit.

Official Desorcy stated that the pool code requires barriers around the pool for safety; this is reviewed when the application is submitted for a permit. Member Raj sky noted that the Town code requires that a cabana cannot be larger than 150 square feet, so he asked if this was an internal or external dimension. Bldg.
