Zoning Board Approves Controversial Cabin Expansion Plan
In a recent meeting of the Wolfboro Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA), members discussed a variance application for a property located at 17 Kings Pine Road, unit two, within the King Pine Lodge condominiums. The application, identified as case number ten v 24, seeks permission to expand a nonconforming structure by 25%, allowing for significant modifications to the existing cabin.

ZBA members present included Jody Persson, Suzanne Ryan, Audrey Klein, Chuck Sumner, and Sebet Stonen, along with representatives from the applicant's family and the condominium association. The meeting highlighted proposed changes to the cabin's deck, which will extend further to the left and right, and the addition of a vertical structure over existing bedrooms and a kitchen, increasing the living space by approximately 32%.

Key details discussed included the height of the basement, which is projected to be around 6 feet 4 inches, although this may vary due to the lot's slope and potential seasonal high water table issues. The deck's height is set to increase by seven inches, and the overall project aims to replace the existing 562 square foot single-story cabin with a new structure that includes an additional 182 square foot loft for storage.

The application has been under review for some time, with interim planner Shawna Sanders from the Lakes Region Planning Commission now overseeing the process. The ZBA acknowledged procedural issues that need to be addressed before moving forward, ensuring that the public remains informed about the ongoing developments related to this variance request.
