an
alternate
member
gene.
A
A
I'm
glad
to
know
that
you're
alive
I'd
also
like
to
congratulate
aisha

who's
done
a
super
outstanding
job
as
miss

her
new

So

A
A
We

find
you.
So
that's
a
good
thing.
Okay,
so,
mr
fortune,
may
we
get
to
the
agenda?
Please.
B
A
Good
morning,
mr
quilty,
what
is
the
reason
for
the
extension.
F
F
I
appeared
before
you
last
year
to
seek
another
to
seek
an
extension
at
that
time
until
this
point
in
time,
if
you
will
and
because
of
you
know,
not
only
cold
they've
got
other
issues
causing
them
to
be
unable
to
get
this
hca
agreement.
Here
we
are
back
in
front
of
you,
so
it
literally
keeps
the
project
alive.
It's
gone
through
the
neighborhood
association
and
back
the
architectural.
A
Commission,
okay,
so
when
do
you
expect
resolution
and
how
many
deferrals
have
you
or
extensions?
Have
you
requested
so
far.
F
A
So
so,
do
you
expect
resolution
in
before
this
this
expires?
Should
we
grant
this
extension
because
we
are
really
not
interested
in
keeping
these
projects
alive
if
there
is
no
progress
being
made.
F
G
Motion
to
extend
from
one
year
from
the
termination
date
12
15..
Second,
second,.
A
All
those
in
favor,
any
opposed
promotion
carries
just
a
reminder.
I
know
I'm
I'm
beginning
to
recognize
as
recognize
your
voices
more
clearly,
but
if
you
could,
please
state
your
name
so
that
we
can
have
it
for
the
record
before
you
make
a
motion
or
you
second,
okay.
Thank
you.
B
H
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
attorney
john
haskell,
the
business
address
of
11
beacon
street
on
behalf
of
the
petitioner
singing
an
extension.
This
morning,
we
unfortunately
were
delayed
in
the
submission
of
our
construction
documents
to
isd
and
we're
advised
by
the
plans
examiner
to
seek
an
ex
extension
by
the
board
due
to
coven
19.
So
we
are
performing
today
seeking
a
extension.
We
have
submitted
all
of
our
construction
documents
so
we're
actively
in
the
permitting
process
to
pull
our
permit.
B
I
I
It
was
extended
until
two
years
from
the
date
of
the
permit
of
when
it
should
have
been
issued
rather
than
two
years
from
the
date
of
the
end
of
litigation,
and
I
think
counsel
for
the
board
agrees
with
this.
However,
since
we
didn't
discuss
this
on
the
record,
as
I
just
did
just
now
at
our
first
initial
meeting,
I
wanted
to
both
correct
that
initial
issue,
and
then
you
know,
since
since
it
would
have
expired
in
may
of
next
year.
Based
on
our
previous
extension,
I
would
be
here
for
the
for
the
second
extension.
I
If
possible,
they
did
not
get
this
project
underway
because
of
covet,
essentially
so,
and
it's
a
little
more
words
than
I
probably
needed
to
say,
but
I'm
I'm
requesting
of
the
board
an
extension
from
when
it
should
have
been
extended
to
which
would
have
been
september
2022.,
and
I
can
explain
kind
of
how
I
got
there.
A
I
You
understood,
I'm
sure.
I
think
this
will
probably
be
the
last
time
you
see
me.
I
just
wanted
to
get
the
full
benefit
of
what
we
were
initially
requesting
and
unfortunately
I
think
we
used
the
wrong
date,
so
I
mean
I
would
respectfully
request
an
extension
until
september
27
2023.
I
I
was
previously
extended
for
may
26
2021,
which
would
have
expired.
You
know
in
next
year
in
may,
the
re
may
was
the
end
of
the
the
actual
hearing
date
as
opposed
to
the
actual
litigation
date.
The
litigation
anniversary
was
september
27th,
so
it
would
have
been
september.
27Th
2020
would
have
been
the
the
end
of
it
really.
Just
a
couple
months
ago
I
came
before
you
early
this
year
to
extend
it.
You
extended
it
by
two
years,
so
you
would
have
extended
that
at
that
point
to
september
22,
2022.
I
and
since
I'm
in
front
of
you
now
I
I
was-
I
was
requesting
that
second
extension,
but
you
know
if,
if
you
don't
want
to
do
that,
it's
just
for
here
for
me
to
correct
the
record.
I
guess
I
could
do
that
too,
but
I
would
request
an
extension
to
september
27
2023
if
the
board
would
permit
it.
A
Okay,
this
is
an
exception
to
our
role,
but
I'm
going
to
kind
of
cut
the
baby
in
half
and
look
for
an
extension
until
september
27,
2022,
okay,
okay,
may
I.
B
K
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
richard
linds
245
sumner
street
east
boston,
on
behalf
of
the
petitioner
madam
chair,
the
board
granted
relief
about
two
years
ago
for
the
project
at
three
3g
wally
for
an
eight
unit,
townhouse
development.
We
have
been
making
progress
on
finalizing
plans.
Obviously,
as
is
the
case
with
many
projects,
cova
has
delayed
things
a
bit.
We
are
in
the
process
of
finalizing
that
and
require
brief
extension
so
requesting
one
year
from
date
of
expiration.
Thank.
B
B
L
L
Thank
you,
I'm
sorry
repeat:
attorney
william
ferrell,
mcdermott,
quilty
and
miller
28
state
street
on
behalf
of
the
applicant.
L
L
By
the
time
we
did
that
we
had
to
revise
designs
so
that
we
had
to
go
back
to
the
design
review.
That
also
led
to
an
issue
with
our
lender.
A
N
This
matter
was
approved
by
the
board
in
august
of
2016,
and
a
building
permit
was
issued
in
october
of
2017
and
construction
thereafter
commenced.
On
this
new
three
unit
dwelling
structure,
a
subsequent
amendment
permit
application
was
filed,
making
design
changes
to
the
exterior
envelope
of
the
building,
and
that
was
the
subject
of
bpda
design
review,
which
was
a
proviso
of
your
original
decision,
and
the
bpda
design
review
was
approved
on
october
16
of
2019
by
staff,
architect,
michael
canizzo,
and
the
amendment
permit
on
those
design.
Changes
was
issued
in
november
of
2019.
N
All
of
the
construction
has
been
completed
and
in
connection
with
the
certificate
of
occupancy
process
and
the
final
sign
off
our
plans,
examiner
recommended
that
we
seek
board
final
arbiter
for
one
particular
design
change,
and
that
is
that
the
original
plans
that
this
board
approved
showed
a
rear
staircase
that
was
open
air
and,
as
a
result
of
the
design
changes.
The
staircase
is
now
enclosed.
N
B
O
Yes,
tanner
payne,
with
a
business
address
of
eight
alton
place
in
brookline.
I
am
the
good
morning
good
morning,
madam
fairy
members
of
the
board,
I'm
the
property
owner
of
this
particular
address.
We
we
submitted
a
permit
application
that
requested
to
change
the
use
and
occupancy
of
the
property
from
a
one
family
dwelling
with
a
store
to
a
two
family
dwelling,
as
well
as
add
living
space
to
the
basement
and
add
a
roof
deck
to
the
top
of
the
building.
O
The
decision
granted
the
necessary
variances,
which
also
included
a
proviso
making
issuance
of
the
permit
subject
to
design
review
by
vpda,
due
to
the
fact
that
the
permit
applications
sought
to
construct
a
roof
deck.
I've
decided
not
to
move
forward
with
performing
the
basement
expansion
or
adding
the
roof
deck
due
to
financial
considerations.
O
Therefore,
the
purpose
of
this
letter
is
to
request
a
modification
of
the
decision
to
strike
all
references
to
the
roof
deck
based
network
that
continues
and
eliminate
the
design
review
proviso,
so
that
a
permit
may
issue
for
the
sole
purpose
of
confirming
the
use
and
occupancy
of
the
property.
As
a
two
two
family
dwelling.
A
So
we
do
have
a
question
for
you
so
give
us
the
the
proposed
final
size
of
each
unit
and
this
unit
one
would
be
without
the
basement.
What
is
it
for
both
sides.
O
The
proposed
size
for
you
so
this,
so
these
are
existing
conditions.
I
purchased
the
property
in
2014,
not
knowing
that
it
was
not
a
legal
two
family.
It
is.
I
I
found
that
out
after
the
fact
when
I
was
going
to
do
these
things
that
that
that
I
didn't
have.
G
Yeah
as
long
as
the
to
the
applicant
have
you
submitted
a
revised
set
of
plans
that
show
absence
of
a
roof
deck
and
no
extension
into
the
basement.
O
We
have
we,
we
submitted
the
existing
conditions
plans
last
week
over
to
stephanie
haynes,
and
so
that's
that
that's
what
we
submitted,
I
think
to
for
you
guys
to
just
look
at
today,
which
was
part
of
my
which
was
part
of
my
original
application
set.
It
just
didn't,
have
the
unit
square
footages,
of
course
we're
going
to
submit
much.
You
know
more
in-depth
plans
to
the
plan
examiner
as
we
you
know,
go
for
the
building
permit.
Okay,.
B
B
A
Okay,
so
this
is
they're.
Q
B
Q
A
So
we
just
want
to
put
that
on
the
record
if
anyone
is
here
for
those
two
cases,
please
log
back
in
at
12,
30.

the
business
address
at
350,
west
broadway
in

madam
chair
members,
requesting
an
extension
in
this
matter.
The
reason
for
the
extension
is
that

have
been
revisions
to
the
plans
that
were
just
presented
to
the
community
last
night.
Additionally,
the
plans
examiner
has
not
had
enough
time
to
review
those
plans
and
stamp
them
so
that
they
could
be
seen
by
the
board
of
today's
hearing.

B
H
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
attorney
matt
eckel,
with
drago
and
toscano,
with
the
business
address
of
11
beacon
street
on
behalf
of
231
saratoga
street
with
me
on.
The
call
this
morning
is
alba
madrigal,
the
owner
of
231
saratoga
street
and
david
choi,
the
project
architect,
as
mentioned
we're
seeking
to
change
the
occupancy
of
the
existing
three-family
residential
dwelling
to
a
four-family
residential
dwelling
and
to
renovate
the
structure.
H
The
zoning
sub-district
is
a
3-f-2000
and
the
lot
size
is
2500
square
feet
in
terms
of
floor
plan.
There's
going
to
be
one
unit
per
floor,
there's
already
existing
units
on
floor,
one
two
and
three
and
we're
seeking
two,
a
legal
one
to
create
a
fourth
unit
in
the
lower.
A
Level,
let
me
just
jump
to
the
to
the
chase
and
go
directly
to
the
chase.
Tell
us
about
the
floor
to
ceiling
height
in
the
basement.
Tell
us
if,
because
you
know
that
we
are
not
really
interested
in
increasing
occupancy
in
basement
dwellings,
so
tell
us
why
this
should
happen.
What's
the
floor
to
ceiling
height,
what's
this
square
footage
of
that
unit,
it
appears
that
you
already
have.
As
far
as
the
use
is
concerned,
you've
maximized
use
of
the
building.
It's
a
three
f
in
the
three
f
district.
H
Absolutely
madam
chair,
so
just
make
sure
I
hit
all
your
questions,
but
the
ceiling
height
is
seven
foot.
Six.
The
proposed
fourth
unit
would
have
three
means
of
egress:
I'm
coming
up
the
existing
stair
to
the
first
floor
and
then
out
the
front
out
the
rear,
where
there's
also
a
common
egress
with
a
common
mechanical
room
and
then
there's
an
existing
side
door
already
on
the
right
side.
So
there's
three
means
of
egress
plus
egress
windows
and
the
floor
to
ceiling
is
seven.
Six.
H
The
proposed
size
of
the
unit
is
740
square
feet.
We
are
proposing
a
one
bedroom,
one
bath
unit
rationalization.
This
is
all
existing
space,
we're
seeking
to
really
clean
up
the
whole
building
right
now.
This
is
just
all
kind
of
dead
storage
and
utility
space.
So
in
part
of
rehabbing,
the
building
we
thought
it'd
be
a
good
opportunity
to
create
a
fourth
unit
here
and
and
comply
with
all
building
code
requirements.
H
The
existing
units
are,
as
I
mentioned,
all
on
floors,
one
two
and
three
one
unit
per
floor
in
terms
of
the
violations
that
were
added
to
the
record.
We
are
seeking
a
use
variance
for
that
fourth
unit.
It
is
a
free,
f2000
subdistrict.
We
are
500
square
feet
short
for
the
additional
lot
per
additional
unit
requirement.
H
It's
far
allowed
as
1.0
we're
proposing
a
1.78
again,
this
space
is
all
existing.
We
would
just
be
converting,
obviously,
the
lower
level
into
living
space,
but
no
additions
or
increase
to
the
height
open
space,
we're
short
by
about
13
square
feet
per
dwelling
and
then
finally
parking.
We
would
be
required
to
create
one
more
parking
space
for
this
property
based
on
the
existing
conditions
and
the
fact
that
it
is
an
existing
structure.
There's
no
way
to
add
any
parking,
so
we'd
be
seeking
a
parking
variance.
A
Okay,
so
the
the
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
understand
this
right,
because
it
looks
as
though
the
only
bedroom
is
in
the
window.
Colette.
Can
you
back
up
a
little
bit
because
I'm
looking
at
this
plan-
and
it
looks
like
the
only
bedroom
only
window-
is
in
the
bedroom.
H
So,
madam
sure,
there
is
an
egress
window
in
the
bedroom,
where
it's
shaded
kind
of
a
very
light
or
whatever
color,
that
is,
there's
also
a
existing
egress
window
in
the
rear,
where
it's
labeled,
laundry
and
storage,
as
well
as.
If
you
look
at
the
the
rendering
of
the
existing
conditions,
pictures
which
are
previous
in
the
slideshow,
there
is
an
existing
front
window.
I
believe
two
windows
actually
as
well
there's
a
window
right
in
that
bay
and
then
to
the
left
of
the
bed.
H
The
wind
apologies
with
the
window
tucked
in
under
the
stairs
in
the
front
of
the
madam
chair.
Yes,
yes,
yes,
that
would
be
the
primary
means
of
ingress
and
egress.
There
are
also
doors
on
the
side
and
the
rear
for
this
unit.
A
Okay,
so
if
the
access
from
the
bedroom
is
in
that
little
alleyway
between
the
two
buildings,
I
can
you
explain
what
the
distance
is
and
how
much
does
this
applicant
own?
Does
it?
Oh,
does
he
or
she
own
the
entire
alleyway.
G
Well,
so
this
is
actually
a
a
better
solution
to
this
kind
of
proposal
than
we
have
seen
in
the
past,
because
the
unit
is
in
the
back
half
two-thirds
of
the
basement.
Where,
because
the
grade
level
goes
down,
it's
almost
most
of
it
is
actually
at
or.
G
Whereas
the
front
part
is
the
part
that
I
think
we
would
be
concerned
with,
because
it's
it's
near
a
grade,
but
that's
where
the
laundry
and
storage
and
the
mechanical
rooms
are
so
I
I
think
this
is
a
more
plausible
proposal
than
some
of
the
other
dungeons
that
we've
seen
in
the
past.
A
So,
mr
echo,
can
you
clarify
that
that
in
fact
the
unit
is,
did
you
say
in
the
in
the
front
of
the
building,
mr
ellick
or
in
the
rear
of
the
building?
No.
G
H
Mr
earlier,
I
believe
you
do
do
have
it
flipped,
where
the
bay
is
represents
the
front
so
that
living
space,
the
bedroom
itself
is
fully
pretty
much
above
grade.
If
you
look
at
the
elevation
slide,
oh
okay,.
G
Okay,
because
if
you
go
down
the
elevation,
you
can
see
on
the
side
elevation
there.
G
The
the
unit
is,
is
largely
below
below
grade
initially
and
it's
not
until
you
get
to
the
rear
half
of
the
the
building
that
you're
at
grade
and
you've
got,
and
in
my
view
you
should
switch
up
the
you
should
put
the
living
space
in
the
rear
and
the
mechanical
and
storage
space
in
the
front.
A
H
That
front
window
would
be
the
living
space
with
windows
on
the
front
as
well,
and
then
that
middle
window
and
the
door
are
essentially
right
where
the
bedroom
are.
So
that's
where
it
really
becomes
fully
agreed
overall
70
above
grade.
But,
as
you
mentioned,
mr
ehrlich
does
slopes
significantly
from
the
front
to
the
back.
H
A
Okay,
any
other
questions
from
the
board.
Is
anybody
here
to
speak
in
support
of
this
proposal.
X
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
lina
trameli
with
the
mayor's
office
of
the
services,
we
would
like
to
go
on
the
record
in
support.
The
office
of
neighborhood
services
held
on
a
bar
is
meeting
on
january
30,
where
the
applicant
addressed
most
of
the
concerns
of
via
buyer.
We
also
received
layers
of
support
from
our
virus,
including
five
from
direct
about
us.
Thank
you.

Please.
A
Hold
on
for
a
second
please,
mr
alec,
I
just
have
a
a
small
emergency
that
I
have
to
deal
with.
Do
you
mind
cheering
and
working
as
architect
for
a
few
minutes.
G
Oh,
I
have
two
hats:
yeah.
G
Okay:
okay,
thank
you,
madam
chair.
All
right
will
the
applicant.
Please
continue
with
the
presentation.
G
Got
it
okay,
so
the
applicant
well
knows
that
when
there's
a
five-member
board,
we
provide
the
opportunity
to
take
an
administrative
deferral
because
you,
otherwise
you
will
need
a
unanimous
vote
of.
AA
M
G
That's
certainly,
mr
drago,
would
you
if,
if
we
have
a
six-member
board,
would
you
want
to
continue
with
the
hearing.
AA
I
would
thank
you,
mr
regero,
mr
ellick,
for
that
option.
Okay,.
G
So
we'll
we'll
put
that
off
until
mr
raj,
the
chair,
returns:
okay,.
B
B
AC
Good
morning,
chairman
and
the
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is,
and
next
to
me
and
behind
us
are
our
parents.
The
address
is
154
feyer
avenue
and
we
are
here
to
ask
for
your
review
and
approval
on
the
driveway
and
parking
space
extension
project.
So
we
can
utilize
a
space
that
we
have
not
been
able
for
many
years.
G
Okay,
as
I
look
at
the
plans
to
the
applicant,
it
appears
that
you
already
have
an
existing
condition
of
front
yard
parking
and
you
were
you're.
You
were
wishing
to
expand
that
from
one
to
two
cars.
Is
that
correct.
AC
G
Okay,
so
here
is,
is
our
concern
as
a
board.
We
are,
we
do
not
approve
front
yard
parking
and
so
the
expansion
of
front
yard
parking
is.
I
mean
this
is
an
existing
condition,
so
there
isn't
really
anything
we
can
do
about
it,
but
in
terms
of
the
expansion
of
front
yard
parking
well,
I
understand
your
concern
that
it
would
make
it
more
functional,
and
that
is
not
something
that
we
are
inclined
to
do.
Mr.
C
B
Yes,
I
was
just
going
to
say
that
mr
chair,
mr
d'amico,
is
waiting
basically
said
that
this
is
front
yard
barking
and
the
plant
should
be
denied
okay,.
G
That
is
consistent
to
the
applicant
that
is
consistent
with
the
policies
of
this
board
in
the
past.
So
can
I
have
a
motion
please.
U
G
Chan,
do
you
want
to
take
testimony
first?
Okay?
Well,
we
can
do
that,
although
I
think
I
think
the
outcome
is
is
not,
but
yes
just
for
the
sake
of
process,
we
should
do
that.
Is
anyone
here
to
testify
in
favor
of
the
applicant.
X
E
Mr
chair,
there
are
no
race
hands.
G
All
those
in
favor
aye,
aye
aye
anybody
opposed
hi.
Then
that
motion
does
not
pass
because
we
are
a
five-member
board.
I
I
should
have
offered
the
six
member
board.
Mr.
G
B
H
As
mentioned
we're
seeking
to
extend
living
space
into
the
basement
for
unit
one,
the
project
would
convert
approximately
356
square
feet
that
are
already
existing
of
basements
into
living
space
dedicated
to
unit
one
which
would
allow
for
a
family
room
and
a
laundry
room.
The
zoning
district's
three
to
two
thousand
and
the
lot
size
is
two
thousand
one
hundred
and
fifty
square
feet.
This
the
plan
itself
is
is
fairly
simple.
The
distinctive,
as
I
mentioned.
H
Just
storage
this
unit,
this
structure
was
renovated
a
few
years
back.
So
there's
really
not
extensive
work
to
be
done,
but
there
was
never
legalized
space
in
the
basement.
Now
you
can
see,
there's
separate
right
now,
storage
and
utility
areas
and
then
that
front
part.
The
bottom
left
of
your
screen
right
now
would
be
the
livable
space
for
unit
one.
No
bedrooms
proposed
not
a
separate
unit,
just
a
family
room,
as
mentioned
the
two
violations
are
far.
H
Where
allowed
is
1.0
we're
currently
at
a
1.1.
This
356
additional
square
feet
would
bring
us
to
a
1.34,
so
it's
already
a
pre-existing
violation
and
also
mentioned
with
the
number
of
habitable
stories.
This
is
a
three-story
building
right
now,
so
the
356
square
feet
in
the
basement
would
technically
make
it
a
four-story
of
habitable
living
space,
but
it
wouldn't
be
a
separate
union,
as
mentioned
so
with
that
I'll
pause
and
take
any
questions
or
comments
on
the
board.
G
So,
can
you
describe
what
what
is
the
existing
floor-to-ceiling
height
in
the
basement,
and
can
you
describe
the
egress
mechanisms
in
the
basement
and
the
what's?
The
future
access
to
the
mechanical
storage
will
be
from
the
units
two
and
three.
H
Absolutely,
mr
chair,
so
the
ceiling
height
is
seven
foot.
Six,
that's
existing!
It's
already
an
existing
space,
the
egress
there's
a
direct
staircase
that
goes
up
to
unit
one.
On
the
first
floor,
as
mentioned,
this
is
already
dedicated
space
to
this
unit.
So
it's
an
interior
connection
there.
You
also
have
an
egress
store
going
towards
the
kind
of
the
middle
of
the
building
there.
G
Okay,
so
it's
seven
foot
six
under
existing
conditions
is
there?
Is
there
a
finished
ceiling
there
now.
G
Is
there
the
switching
hats?
The
the
plans
are
adequate
is
great
one
here
to
testify
on
behalf
of
the
applicant.
X
Good
morning,
madam
chair
and
mr
chairs
are
members
of
the
world
in
a
tamil
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
we
would
like
to
hold
the
recurring
support
for
this
proposal.
The
applicant
addressed
most
of
the
concerns
of
the
barriers
during
the
community
process
and
jeffrey's
point
neighborhood
association
voted
in
support
of
this
proposed
facebook.
G
AG
B
This
is
this
is
for
150
swift
to
confirm
the
existing
four
bay
flat
roof
storage
structure,
legalized
land
use
for
commercial
construction
equipment
and
materials,
the
violations,
article
53,
section,
36,
the
storage
of
construction
equipment
and
materials
forbidden
in
a
ce
district
and
article
53,
section
37.
The
rare
yacht
is
insufficient
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please.
AH
Yes,
this
is
peter
lyons.
AH
Okay,
this
is
a
article
5336,
storage
of
construction
equipment
and
materials
forbidden
in
the
cp
district
and
dimensional
regulations.
Rear
yacht
is
insufficient.
These
properties,
madam
chairwoman,
about
the
wood
island
train
station,
so
with
regard
to
the
rear
yard
problem
the
tracks
kind
of
lined
in
behind
this
home.
At
some
points
there
is
a
six
foot
backdrop
and
then
it
lowers
to
four
feet
with
regard
to
the
construction
equipment.
AH
It's
really
not
construction
equipment,
the
operator
of
the
home
and
the
lot
has
been
operating
there
since
1989..
AH
AH
His
second
vehicle
is
a
buick
suv,
that's
his
wife's
vehicle,
and
then
he
has
two
very
small
box
vans
that
he
uses
for
his
plumbing
business.
Nobody
comes
to
the
property,
nobody,
you
know
enters
or
exits
the
property
during
non-work
hours.
It's
the
hours
of
work
are
from
8
30
to
5
o'clock.
A
A
A
A
So
hold
on
mr
lyons,
so
the
the
real
intent
of
this
is
to
separate
these
lots
with
the
intention
of
possibly
renovating
or
or
selling
off
the
property.
At
too
swift.
AH
AH
AH
We
did
receive
the
requested
variances,
but
unfortunately
they
lapsed
so
we're
in
court
today,
with
the
isd
they've
been
very
helpful
to
us
and
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
make
sure
that
we
get
the
proper
variances
that
we
work
with
the
community.
I
think
mark
you
have
a
number
of
letters
in
support
of
this
proposal
from.
A
The
communities
mr
lyons
just
hold
on
okay,
so,
mr
erlich,
how
are
the
plans
well.
A
Okay,
mr
lyons
one
quick
question:
when
it
was
approved
in
the
past,
were
there
any
provisos
placed
on
it?
No,
no.
It
was
straight
approval
with
no
screening
and
buffering
no
design
review.
Nothing
like
that.
AE
I'm
sure
if
I
could
just
follow
up
on
your
remarks,
this
is
it
devote
just
having
this
here
in
front
of
me
appears
to
be
a
very
large
wooden,
stockade
fence.
Does
the
applicant
know
the
height
of
that.
A
Q
Here
just
a
quick
note.
B
To
what
mr
devoe
just
mentioned,
rob
demiko
has
spoke
on
this,
but
I
I
believe,
he's
an
east
boston
resident.
I
know
there's
no
parking,
it's
not
a
parking
issue
here,
but
he'd
like
to
strongly
suggest
denial
because
we
moved
the
fencing
on
city-owned
property.
B
AF
X
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
nina
trammelling
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
we
would
like
to
go
on
the
recurring
support
the
office
of
neighborhood
services
held
on
a
virus
meeting
on
july
28,
where
the
applicant
addressed
the
concerns
of
via
barriers
and
received
their
support.
This
proposal
received
strong
support
from
harborview
neighborhood
association.
Thank
you.
Y
A
A
X
A
Hold
on
mr
mr
fortune,
what
is
the
opposition
based
on.
B
Pretty
much
what
I
just
mentioned,
madam
chair,
the
applicant
is
btd
btd
installed
no
parking
sites
on
one
side
of
swift
terrace
to
allow
safe
access,
and
then,
as
mr
d'amico
spoke,
he
would
always
strongly
support
a
denial
strongly
suggested
aisle
and
the
case
also
recommend
remove
the
fencing
on
city-owned
property
and
we
try
to
also
remove
any
material
on
the
city
property
as
well
as
hazardous
material
on
the
property,
and
that
echoes
the
other
five
concerns
that
that
we
have
from
the
butters.
I
believe.
AH
A
No,
please
we're
in
discussion.
May
I
have
anybody
here
to
speak,
miss
ambassador
anybody
here
to
speak,
either
in
support
or
in
opposition.
Thank
you,
caller.
AI
Yes,
hi
good
morning,
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
board,
this
is
gail
miller
and
I'm
speaking
as
a
proxy
for
brian
berglund,
an
owner
at
455,
frankfurt
and
the
butters
to
the
property.
He
was
never
notified
of
these
requests
at
the
outset
and
did
not
have
ample
time
to
fully
engage.
He
has
been
recently
hospitalized,
I'm
speaking
for
him.
AI
At
the
outset,
this
commercial
business
has
been
operating
illegally
for
many
years
in
a
corridor
enhancement
zone.
Making
these
requests
a
moot
point.
They
should
be
denied
and
prohibited
activities
ceased
for
the
past
20
years
or
more.
This
commercial
business
has
created
a
nuisance
on
the
street,
with
heavy
truck
traffic
noise
and
illegal
parking
parking
on
the
narrow
street
it
it
is
degrading
the
residential
nature
of
the
area.
AI
The
four-bay
structure
is
referred
to
is
now,
for
all
intents
and
purposes,
attached
to
city-owned
property,
with
no
side
yard
variants
and
was
built
as
legally
on
city-owned
property
before
he
managed
to
buy
the
parcel.
This
neighborhood
is
residential
and
for
years
it's
had
to
tolerate
this
commercial
business
operating
as
a
de
facto
junkyard,
and
it
should
not
be
allowed
to
continue
operating
in
violation
of
the
zoning
codes.
Google
photos
can
be
provided
which
illustrate
the
conditions.
AJ
AJ
We
believe
our
neighbors
should
be
allowed
to
continue
their
business,
which
is
their
livelihood
along
with
living
on
their
property,
which
they've
done
for
many
many
years
we're
strongly
in
support,
because
we
believe
it
would
be
unfair
to
have
them
tear
down
their
business,
which
they've
had
for
many
years,
we're
not
concerned
about
the
trucks
or
what
they're
doing
it's
not
next
to
any
residential
building,
except
for
their
own,
because
it's
between
a
cemetery
and
their
house.
So
again
we
strongly
support
the
approval
of
the
variances.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
A
A
You
know,
regardless
of
whether
it
was
pre-existing
it
sounds
like
the
uses,
are
not
in
support
of
the
residential
properties
and
I'm
looking
at
google
maps
and
across
the
street.
There
are
some,
you
know
some
well-kept
homes,
so
I
just
need
to
make
sure,
and
it
looks
like
there
is
storage
of
materials
on
the
residential
property
too.
A
So
to
me,
this
is,
you
know,
brings
up
a
whole
bunch
of
concerns
for
what's
happening
on
these
two
lots
and
it
looks
yep
okay,
so
I
so
those
are
my
concerns.
May
I
have
a
motion
please.
M
A
G
Would
you
accept
an
amendment
that
modified
to
be
code
compliant.
A
So,
let's
be
specific,
so
the
design
review
is
focused
on
one,
the
two
swift
terrace:
it's
going
to
make
sure
that
that
is
becomes
code
compliant.
A
I
see
that's
three
meters,
but
that's
a
pitch
roof
with
one
side
camera.
So
it's
probably
fine.
So
that's
the
that's
the
the
proviso
for
the
residential
unit.
A
On
the
on
the
commercial
structure,
it's
going
to
be
again
promote
approval
with
design
review
again
for
defensing,
okay
and
then
additionally,
it'd
be
limited
to
just
storage
of
construction
equipment,
not
materials.
P
C
Two
two
box
trucks,
a
a
non-commercial
suv
and
a
commercial
vehicle
can
the
proviso
be
limited
to
just
the
parking
of
those
vehicles
as
opposed
to
construction
equipment.
A
Exactly
so,
that's
why?
Because
it
is
a
request
for
construction
equipment,
slash
materials,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
it
is
limited
to
construction
to
how
many
vehicles
was
that
that
was
three
vehicles.
Four
vehicles.

address.
AL
The
the
deck
that
we're
talking
about
installing
is
is
something
that
is
a
final
step
in
a
repair
to
a
leaky
roof,
that's
been
chronically
happening
for
years,
or
so
the
most
recent
repair
has
been
a
rubberization
of
the
roof
and
throughout
the
entire
dimension,
going
from
the
front
of
the
street
to
the
back
about
100
feet.
AL
What
we're
looking
to
do
is
to
make
it
reusable
again
because
we
don't
want
to
damage
the
the
rubberized
repair
by
put
installing
a
deck
in
the
front.

If
there's
a
there's
another
picture
under
there
about
the
fencing,
there's,
there's
a
picture
of
the
the
fence,
a
new
fence.
AL
We
installed
around
that
garage
area,
it's
consistent
with
the
use
that
that's
been
there
for,
since
the
1960s,
where
you
know
my
parents
have
used
that
as
a
patio
area,
and
now
we
just
don't
want
to
go
ahead
and
damage
the
the
roof
repair
that
we
just
made.
That
seems
to
have
solved
the
problems
of
the
water
leakage
that
we've
had.
G
AL
It
has
been,
it
has
been
in
the
past.
Yes,
it's
not.
Currently,
I
think
we
have
a
couple
of
small
items
out
there
like
a
like
a
gas,
grill
or
whatever,
but
no
one's
using
it
at
this
time,
because
we
don't
want
to
take
a
risk
of
damaging
the
rubberization
that
was
placed.
J
G
G
Right
there,
okay,
yes,
I
mean
there
is
there's
a
sort
of
hand
sketch
if
that's
what
you're
referring
to
yeah
yeah.
Well,
I
mean
madam
chair
this
is
this:
is
a
pretty
simple
proposal
to
put
a
roof
deck
on
an
existing
structure
that
that
already
is
fenced
off
and
has
has
been
used
in
the
patio.
So
I
suppose
the
drawings
are
adequate
for
that.
AL
It
has
access
the
the
patio
area
is
accessible
to
the
entire
three-story
building.
That's
attached
to
there's
three
families
in
that
business
building
and
they
most
of
the
time
it
will
be
used
by
my
mother
who
lives
on
the
second
floor,
makes
it
real
convenient
for
her
some
sun,
okay.
G
AL
There's
also
an
egress
from
the
fire
escape
that's
in
between
the
two
buildings.
If
you
look
at
the
top
view
and
in
the
picture
you'll
see
a
metal
fire
sweep
that's
attached,
okay,
love
it
yeah.
Okay,.
A

Good
morning,
I'm
chair
members
of
the
board
lina
trembelli,
with
the
mayor's
office
of

services.
We
would
like
to
go
under
my.
They
were
not
concerned
expressed
by
via
buyers
during
the
community
process,
and
this
proposal
received
support
from
members
of
the
gulf
street
citizens
association.
Thank
you.
Y
C
A
C
I
couldn't
I
couldn't
tell
from
the
the
drawing,
maybe
because
we
scrolled
through
it
quickly,
but
does
that
meet
safety
requirements.
G
The
the
existing
fence-
that's
shown
in
the
photo,
I
mean
that's
the
problem,
the
drawings
just
a
floor
plan
of
the
deck,
but
there's
no
elevation
but
the
exist,
but
the
photo
that's
there
on
the
first
page
would
be
satisfactory.
AM
B
Chair
secretary
here
sorry,
I
made
a
mistake.
There
are
no
letters
of
support,
that's
the
next
case.
I
was.
Q
A
M
Like
to
make
a
motion
to
approve
what
design
review,
I
guess
okay.
A
Honestly,
when
I
had
my
deck
done
before
the
permit
was
issued
by
isd,
they
made
sure
my
railing
height
was
high
enough.
So
I
think
that
there
is
a
second
level
of
of
checks
to
make
sure
that
everything
is
up
to
code.
So
so
the
motion
is
for
approval.
May
I
have
a
second
second
all
those
in
favor
any
opposed
motion
carries.

AN
A
On
miss
grady,
I
have
a
question
for
you.
The
the
way
that
we
usually
hold
our
hearings
is
that
when
there
is
building
code
relief,
we'd
like
to
have
that
addressed
first,
so
can
you
speak
about
whether
you
still
need
that
building
code
relief
and
and
if
you
don't
tell
us
how
you
die.
AN
Absolutely
so,
if
you
go
to
the
plan
for
the
third
floor,
the
entire
reason
for
this
proposal
is,
I
am
on
the
second
and
third
floor
and
we
need
the
head
height
to
relocate
the
stairs.
The
existing
stairs
are
extremely
steep
and
I
have
a
two-year-old
it's
unsafe,
and
so
we
are
proposing
it's
a
freestanding
building,
it's
not
attached,
and
so,
if
you
look
yep
right
here,
so
we
need
to
put
dormers
on
the
sides.
I
am
proposing
very
historic
nature.
I've
already
renovated.
A
AN
AN
I
can
switch
the
floor
plan
so
that,
where
the
bedroom
two
is
would
not
be
a
bedroom,
it
could
be
a
study
and
move
the
study
where
the
loft
is
now
and
then
it
would
have
the
appropriate
egress.
In
order
to
make
this
project
work,
it
does
need
side
dormers,
because
I
need
the
head
height
to
relate
location,
okay,
hold
on
hold
on.
A
M
A
All
those
in
favor,
sorry
all
right,
any
opposed
motion
carries
so
now
we
are
back
to
the
zoning
code
relief,
which
is
for
to
replace
the
existing
deck
and
to
add
the
dormers.

My
client,
jim
pascal,
is
proposing
to
demolish
the
existing
buildings
and
combine
two
lots
to
erect
a
four-story
eight-unit
residential
building
with
12
parking
spaces.
AO
A
AO
Yes,
madam
chair,
this
is
a
four-story
building.
The
top
floor
is
set
back
nine
feet
to
give
a
a
nicer
den,
a
nicer
elevation
at
the
street,
the
units
one
and
two
are
duplex
units,
the
two
bedroom
three
bath
at
two
thousand
square
feet
and
then
the
upper
floors
at
the
second
third
and
floor
fourth
floor
are
two
bedroom
two
bath
units
they're
all
flats
at
1275
square
feet.
The
parking
is
in
the
rear
of
the
building.
AO
There
is
an
existing
garage
which
we
are
going
to
keep
and
renovate
to
provide
sound
insulation
to
the
butters
in
the
rear.
There
is
one
driveway
on
the
right
side:
we're
reconfiguring
an
existing,
curb
cut,
that's
one
way
down
and
one
way
up
from
that
rear
parking
area.
AO
We
are
working
with
a
butters
on
both
sides
for
fencing
if
they
wish
and
all
landscaping
also.
G
The
drawings
are
okay,
I
mean
once
again
we
have
a
basement
unit
and
if
you
look
at
the
elevations
are
the
sections.
Unfortunately,
the
living
space
is
in
the
front
and
that's
where
it
is
most
below
grade.
It's
a
it's
a
sloping
lot
in
the
in
the
back
of
the
building
where
they
it
is
at
or
above
grade,
but
the
the
unit
one
living
space
that
is
in
the
in
the
basement
is
mostly
low
grade.
AO
Yes,
mr
ehrlich,
we
do
have
the
required
seven
foot,
six
ceiling
height
in
the
lower
level.
There
are
we
have
our
required
egress
windows
at
the
front
of
the
building,
and
this
is
not
in
a
flood
plain.
We
do
have
an
interior,
primitive
perimeter
drainage,
so
I
think
we'll
have
some
good
quality
space
living
space
at
the
lower
level.
G
I'm
looking
at
mr
johnson
looking
at
a01
the
lower
level
floor
plan,
it
doesn't
specify
what
there's
a
bedroom.
Those
are
bedrooms
in
those
in
those
in
the
basement
right
when
the
eagles
windows.
G
Yeah
I
mean
this
is
this
is
the
same
problem
that
you've
done
before
this
board
many
times
just
same
problem:
we've
had
on
a
regular
basis,
it
would
in
terms
of
light
and
and
air.
It's
really
it's
really.
Yes,
you've
got
a
legal
egress
in
terms
of
light
in
there
it's
really
limited.
AO
Okay,
we
don't
have
any
problem
turning
those
turning
into
just
a
non-bedroom
area.
If
that
suits
the
board.
AO
Yes,
of
course,
madam
chair,
these
are
dedicated
roof
decks
to
the
two
top
units
they're
accessed
via
bulkheads
with
a

that
they
would
have
to
obtain
from
the
port
of
appeal
is
an
ipod
permit
under
article
27,
but
the
ipod
itself
does
not
exist.
A
Okay,
so
it's,
how
did
it
so
so,
mr
johnson,
maybe
I
should
ask
you:
how
is
it
that
so
hold
on
jeff?
When
did
the
ipod
expire?
Was
it
like
two
years
ago.
D
Yeah,
it
was
in
october,
I
think,
two
years
ago
after
we
made
some
minor
amendments
to
article
68.
A
Okay,
so,
mr
johnson,
this
is
listed
as
a
new
project.
What
took
it
so
long
to
get
to
this
board
after
because
what
I,
what
I'm
curious
about,
is
you
know,
given
the
zoning
now,
what
would
it
be
zoning
compliant
or
not.
AO
Yes,
I
was
unmuted,
yes
ma'am.
There
have
been
several
amendments
to
article
68,
beginning
in
june
of
2017..
This
appeal
was
filed
in
september
of
2019
and
is
compliant
with
article
68.
At
that
time,
however,
the
south
boston
ipod
was
in
effect
amendments
subsequent
subsequent
amendments
to
article
68
happened
in
october,
the
following
month
of
2019..
AO
So
this
has
been.
It's
only
been
14
months
since
we
filed
our
appeal
issue.
There
are
other
issues
related
to
the
the
developer
and
his
former
partner.
So.
A
I'm
just
trying
to
get
this
chicken
and
egg
scenario
here.
You
know
the.
If,
if
the
south
boston
ipod
expired
in
excuse
me
10
18
and
you
filed
on
9
19,
then
you
should
have
been
listed
as
just
you
know,
under
the
regular
zoning
versus
under
the
ipod.
A
AO
I
believe
the
ipod
menu
chair
and
jeff
hampton
may
be
able
to
shed
some
light
was
extended
and
it
sunseted
in
october
of
2019.
D
A
Okay
got
it
got
it
okay.
So,
given
that
information,
may
I
have
a
motion
please.
A
A
second
now
hold
on,
so
it's
a
lemonade,
eliminate
bedrooms
in
the
basement,
and
the
applicant
did
talk
about
working
on
screening
and
buffering.
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
to
have
vpda
involved
in
that.
B
You,
okay,
I'm
gonna,
go
back
to
case
boa
107,
one
three,
one:
two,
two:
twenty
six
to
two
twenty
eight
princeton
street,
I'm
gonna
read
it
back
into
the
record
because
it's
been
a
while
change
the
blocks
to
an
existing
building
from
five
families
to
a
seven
family
and
renovate
all
floors
and
basement
investing
buildings
violations.
Article
2017:
this
is
in
the
east
boston,
ipod,
article
53,
section
8,
a
multi-family
dwelling
is
forbidden.
Article
53,
section,
8
accessory
parking
is
forbidden.
B
A
G
We
have
the
same
problem.
We
seem
to
be
getting
a
flood
of
them.
The
basement
living
space
is
well
below
grade.
AA
AA
AA
This
project
has
changed,
so
all
the
violations
have
changed
as
well,
and
the
plans
that
mr
ehrlich
has
that
the
new
proposal
is
to
change
the
occupancy
from
an
existing
five-family
residential
dwelling
to
a
seven-family
residential
dwelling
with
five
parking
spaces
in
the
rear,
to
also
include
a
full
renovation
and
historic
renovation.
But
there
is
no
longer
a
fourth
floor
on
this
building,
so
that
completely
was
taken
off,
and
I
just
wanted
that
to
be
reflected,
as
it
was
mentioned
in
the
description.
AA
So
we
thank
you.
We
actually
removed
violations
for
heightened
stories
heightened
feet
in
the
yard,
rear
yard,
so
there's
no
longer
any
of
those
violations.
AA
So
no,
we
still
have
a
parking
violation,
but
we
were
able
to
right
now
existing
there's
a
garage
in
the
rear
that
will
be
raised
and
so
we're
able
to
create
two
to
three
additional
spots
from.
What's
there
now
so
there'll
be
five.
AA
So
we
would
have
to
have
three
new
spaces
for
the
for
the
new
unit,
and
that
would
we
would
have
two.
A
Okay,
let's
see
tell
us
about
the
basement
dwelling
then.
AA
Sure
so,
as
part
of
the
proposal
we
are
seeking
a
basement
unit.
Although
this
would
be
a
975
square
foot
unit,
seven
foot
seven
inch
height
floor
to
ceiling.
It
would
have
two
egress
windows
in
the
front
of
the
building,
so
one
would
be
for
the
living
room.
One
would
be
for
the
bedroom
and
we
have
also
added,
if
you
go
down
a
few
more
slides,
an
egress
door.
AA
AA
AA
As
we
go
up
upstairs
so
there's
unit
two
and
three
would
be
housed.
On
the
first
floor.
Those
are
one
bedroom,
one
bath
unit,
835
square
feet.
The
second
floor
is
units
four
and
five.
Those
are
two
bedroom
one
bath,
900
square
foot
units
and
then,
as
we
go
up
to
the
third
floor,
it's
units
six
and
seven.
Those
are
two
bed,
one
910
square
foot
units
right
now.
This
has
been
used
as
a
rental
building
and
we're
proposing
condos
for
all
of
these
units
with
an
historic.
AA
Renovation,
I
can,
I
can
also
go
over
the
violations
mentioned.
Madam
chair.
J
AA
The
use
in
this
area
is
a
3f,
so
we
are
proposing
seven
units.
It's
existing
five.
This
area
is
a
three
f
two
thousand,
so
we've
got
five
thousand
square
feet
additional
lot
area.
We
would
need
three
thousand
far.
What's
existing
now
is
1.13
and
with
the
addition
of
the
basement,
it
would
bring
us
up
to
1.32,
which
has
been
reduced.
AA
When
we
took
off
that
fourth
floor,
our
open
space
is
required
at
440
square
feet,
total
300
square
feet
per
unit
would
be
required
and
also
the
parking
violation
that
I
had
mentioned
earlier,
but
we
are
adding
parking
in
the
rear
with
green
space,
where
the
garage
was.
A
Okay,
you
know
I'm
just
going
through
article
53.
because
for
some
reason
I
was
fairly
sure
that
basement
units
were
not
allowed
in
in
article
53.
jeff
jeff.
Can
you
did
the
bra
come
up
with
any
regulation
recommendations
on
this.
D
I
apologize
madam
chair
members
of
the
board.
Here
it
is
so
this
we
made
a
recommendation
of
deferral
that
adequate
plans
be
delivered
to
the
agency
for
planning
review.
We
have
it
as
of
changing
it
from
a
five
to
an
eight.
I
know
that's
been
changed
according
to
mr
drago,
so,
but
our
recommendation
was
for
deferral.
A
Okay:
okay:
how?
How
are
the
plans
mr,
like
well.
G
So
the
deferral
that
mr
hampton's
referring
to
were
based
on
a
lack
of
plans
that
we
do
now
have.
This
does
show
the
third
floor
with
the
fourth
floor
gone
mr
drago,
I'm
assuming
that
the
basement
unit
was
added
it
sort
of
as
a
exchange
for
eliminating
the
fourth
floor.
Is
that
correct.
AA
G
Miss
it,
mr
drago,
is
correct
that
the
that
the
living
portion
of
the
basement
unit
is
is
in
the
set
with
the
topography
of
the
of
the
plot.
It
is
in
the
section
where
it
is
above
grade.
Most
of
it
is
above
grade.
So
again,
you
know
this.
We
keep
having
the
same
thing
come
before
us
and
at
least
two
of
the
plans
that
have
come
before
us
have
designed
it
in
such
a
way
that
the
living
space
is
where
there
is
most
light
in
there
and
an
adequate
ceiling
height.
A
X
Good
morning,
I'm
chairman
members
of
the
board,
linda
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
We
would
like
to
go
on
directly
and
support
during
the
community
process.
The
applicant
addressed
most
of
the
concerns
of
the
avarice
rules,
the
four-story
addition
to
tear
the
building
down
and
reduce
the
numbers
of
units.
They
also
receive
25
letters
of
support
from
about
us
and
residents
of
eagle
hill.
Thank
you.
Y
E
AS
Lexington
and
I
am
in
support
of
the
project.
A
U
Madam
muted
charlotte
71
utah
street
community
member
calling
on
support
of
the
project
the
community
did
push
forward
for
us
to
actually
push
living
spaces
in
basements.
These
houses
are
well
above
grade
and
it
makes
a
great
use
for
space,
specifically
in
the
historic
district
of
eagle
hill.
This
is
definitely
a
request
of
the
community
that
we
do
expand
spaces
into
the
air,
especially
when
they're
happy.
Thank
you.
A
All
those
in
any
favor
and
and
I'm
just
going
to
go
on
the
record
in
constant
opposition
to
basement
living
space
motion
carries
thank
you.
We
have
now
walked
away
through
the
agenda
for.
A
Board
or
take
a
break
until
and
will
resume
at
12
30.
in
the
meantime,
please
everybody
who's
requesting
a
deferral.
Please
let
madame
ambassador
know
of
your
intentions,
both
for
people
scheduled
for
12
30
and
for
people
scheduled
for
one
o'clock,
make
sure
you're
in
conversation
with
miss
ambassador.
Thank
you.
We
are
now
adjourned
until
12.
A
A
Session,
let's
go
forward
with
the
request
for
deferrals
or
withdrawals
for
12
30.
AT
You
thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
good
afternoon.
This
is
john
back
from
the
john
d
barry
at
400
grand
at
milton
mass
we're
respecting
requesting
a
deferral
on
this
project
scheduled
for
december
21st.
A
Okay,
so
this
is
a
request
for
a
deferral.
May
I
have
a
motion
please.
M
B
AT
Thank
you
again,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board.
This
is
john
barry
from
the
office
of
john
d
barry
on
behalf
of
the
petitioner.
Here
we
have
met
with
we've
done
this
meeting
and
we've
met
with
the
e-board
for
the
lower
middles
group.
They've
asked
us
to
come
back
on
december
3rd
and
after
that,
to
make
a
presentation
to
the
board.
I
think
the
this
this
project
being
requested
for
a
hearing,
I
think,
was
a
mistake
at
this
point
in
our
community.
A
Okay,
so
do
you
see
you're
requesting
a
deferral,
so
you
think
it's
going
to
go
ahead
in
a
timely
fashion.
B
AV
We
still
need
some
more
time
to
go
through
the
community.
The
neighborhood
review
process
as
well.
B
AF
B
All
right,
madam
chair,
I
just
want
the
council-
wants
me
to
remind
everybody
on
the
board
here
and
the
open
meeting
law
that
there
are
two
projects
that
were
scheduled
for
9
30,
but
they
were
going
to
be
heard
at
12
30
and
I'm
going
to
call
them
an
order
in
succession.
So
the
first
one
is
going
to
be:
glen
rose,
doa,
113704,
42-44,
glenn
rose
road
name
and
address
I'm
sorry.
This
is
extended
living
space
of
an
existing
attic,
an
addition
of
a
new
dormer,
the
violated
article
65
section
9..
B
AW
Edward
waters,
hello,
yes,
please
go
ahead,
so
I'm
the
owner
of
4244
road
and
you
know
the
plans
were
denied,
but
I'd
like
to
argue
that
the.
AW
I
am
adding
a
dormer
to
existing
living
space,
so
two
bedrooms
up
on
that
third
floor.
Since
the
1940s
I
actually
grew
up
up
there.
I've
lived
here
my
whole
life.
My
grandfather
built
the
house.
AW
Or
a
two
family:
it's
a
two
family
house.
That's
the
second!
That's
the
second
and
third
floor
that
we're
the
third
floor,
we're
adding
the
dormer
to
and.
AW
A
A
Okay,
okay,
so,
mr
like,
how
are
the
plans?
No.
A
Okay,
any
questions
from
the
board
is
anybody
here
to
speak
in
support
of
this
proposal.
AF
Madam
chairman
was
the
board
patrick
fandale,
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
this
proposal.
The
applicant
notified
all
of
his
abutters
and
I
believe
there
was
one
letter
of
support
submitted
from
his
direct
to
butter.
AD
B
The
applicant
proposes
a
change
of
auction,
including
cannabis
establishment.
The
applicant
also
proposes
to
modify
the
existing
layout
and
conditions
of
the
interior
of
the
building
violation.
Article
56
section
15,
the
use
of
regulations
of
cannabis
establishment
is
conditional
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please.
I
There
are
no
buffer
issues
with
this
application
as
well
the
building
itself
for
the
I'm
sorry,
the
you
can
stay
on
that
first
side,
if
you
don't
mind
we'll
actually
be
in
the
basement
area,
a
lift
will
be
added
where
you
see
the
square
or
the
red,
the
red
outline,
and
it
will
be
in
the
lower
levels,
it
will
be.
You
can
go
to
the
next
slide.
If
you
don't
mind,
it
will
be
approximately
4
200
square
feet
again
at
the
basement
of
this
building.
There
are
five
tenant
spaces.
I
However,
only
three
tenants
are
in
this
this
building
at
1524
vfw
and
together
they
share
26
parking
spaces
that
are
all
on
site.
There
is
a
separate
building
or
attached
to
this
building,
but
under
a
separate
ownership,
there
is
a
building
to
the
right
and
there
is
a
driveway
that
allows
for
access
to
the
rear
of
the
building
where
deliveries
will
occur.
I
If
you
go
down
just
a
little
bit
further
to
that's
just
existing
conditions,
you
can
keep
going,
I'm
ambassador,
if
you
don't
mind
one
more,
I
think
the
next
one
might
be
demo
and
I
think
we'll
go
to
the
next
one
yeah
one
more,
please
that'll
be
great
yeah.
This
is
this
is
good
right
here.
I
So
this
is
actually
the
floor
plan,
and
what
you
have
here
is
vfw
is
to
your
left
essentially,
and
so
the
way
it
will
work
is
that
you
can
either
walk
down
either
side
either
flight
of
stairs
or,
if
you
are
handicapped,
a
lift
will
be
installed
that
you'll
have
access
to
to
go
into
the
front
of
the
of
the
dispensary
where
you'll
be
checked
in
this
is
a
medical
dispensary.
So
it's
a
little
bit
different
than
the
adult
dispensaries,
but
I
know
you've
seen
you've
seen
these
before
as
well.
I
You'll
you'll
have
to
be
checked
in
at
the
front
and
then
once
verified
that
you
are
indeed
a
patient
with
a
valid
id
you'll
be
able
to
enter
the
facility
and
it's
4
300
square
feet.
It
has
pretty
good
room
to
handle
numbers,
although
we
do
not
anticipate
a
huge
set
of
numbers,
given
the
fact
that
it
is,
it
is
medical.
I
The
hours
of
operation
proposed
here
would
be
9
a.m
to
8
p.m.
Seven
days
a
week
on
the
inbound
side
of
the
vfw
parkway,
so
at
nine
at
nine
a.m.
You
know
you
kind
of
miss
the
the
commute.
The
only
way
to
get
there
is
through
the
vfw
parkway,
there's
no
other
cut-throughs
through
the
actual
neighborhood.
I
We
were
approved
by
the
boston
cannabis
board
in
september,
and
we
entered
into
a
host
community
agreement
with
the
with
the
city
of
boston
in
october.
This
is
a
leased
building.
We
would
continue
to
lease
it.
We
have
a
10-year
lease
with
the
option
to
extend
for
multiple
extensions.
Maybe
I'll
pause
there.
If
that's,
okay,.
A
A
I
Yeah
this
one
will
not
be
appointment
only
at
all.
This
is
medical
only.
You
know
if
we
ever
come
back
here,
for
when
we
come
back
for
adult
use,
we're
going
to
have
to
go
through
that
that
whole
process,
that's
where
you're
seeing
numbers
of
maybe
around,
I
don't
know
300
a
day.
The
medical
facilities
are
seeing
numbers
closer
to
30,
40,
50,
very
low
numbers
at
at
the
moment.
So
none
of
the
medical
are
doing
any
any
kind
of
appointment.
Only.
I
There
is
some
topography
on
the
site:
that's
good.
There
is
a
site
plan
that
shows
a
little
bit
of
topography
there.
However,
there
is
access
to
the
rear
of
the
building
for
vehicles,
and
once
there
you'll
go
into
the
you
can
go
and
we'll
go
into
a
secure
area.
That's
not
available
to
the
public
at
the
rear
of
the
building
on
the
right
side
of
your
screen.
I
There
so
you'd
be
you'd,
be
walking
in
down
the
set
of
stairs
into
the
building
and
then
through
common
space
into
our
space
to
get
into
the
secured
area,
and
then
at
that
point
it
will
be
made
secure
by
you
know
by
our
by
our
staff.
I
Yes,
there
will
be
security
on
site.
You
know
we
we
anticipate
having
to
ramp
it
up
significantly,
if
and
when
we're
ever
doing
adult
use
again
with
the
numbers
we're
seeing
for
medical,
it's
just
a
much
slower
set
of
numbers,
so
so
you're
not
you're,
not
seeing
the
same
magnitude
of
security.
A
Thank
you.
How
are
the
plans
mr
alex.
G
The
plans
are
okay,
mr
ross,
the
the
the
photograph
of
the
existing
shows
the
steps
up
to
the.
What
now
is
the
first
level,
those
steps.
I
can't
I'm.
I
Okay,
on
the
right
hand,
side
if
we
could
go
to
the
elevation
ambassador,
just
go
up,
maybe
two,
those.
I
I'm
looking
at
yeah
what
they
did
here,
it's
a
little
unclear.
Is
they
kind
of
removed
the
ground
for
you,
so
you
could
see
what's
there
so
the
upper
is
the
proposed
is
the
proposed
condition.
Is
the
existing
condition
and
the
lower
is
the
proposed
condition
with
the
with
the
with
the
kind
of
the
the
earth
removed?
So
you
can
see
that
there's
access
on
the
ground
floor,
so
they've
removed.
I
The
lift
is
on
the
right,
I
believe,
there's
a
shot
of
the
lift.
Maybe
if
you
go
up
one
I
I
apologize,
the
lift
is
on
the
right
hand,
side
we
can
keep
so
maybe
we'll
go
down.
It's
probably
the
lift
will
be
installed
there
on
that,
on
that
right,
hand,
side
and
there's
an
actual
drawing
of
the
lift.
If
you
go
further.
I
I
Yeah,
so
what
you
have
there
is
you
have
a
closed
yoga
studio?
You
have
a
liquor
store.
I
think
it's
called
town
line
liquors.
It's
on
the
upper
left
of
you
can
actually
right
there.
You
can
stay
right
where
we
are
on
the
right.
You
have
an
adult
services
store
of
of
sorts.
It's
called
amazing,
I
believe,
and
then
and
that's
it.
There
used
to
be
a
mattress
store
in
this
location
and
that's
no
longer
there.
C
Two
more
questions:
counselor
real,
quick.
You
you
mentioned
at
one
point:
if
you
come
back
for
recreational
use,
so
then
you
corrected
yourself.
You
said
when
you
come
back
and
then
you
said:
if
again
and
just
can
we
get
some
clarity
on
that.
I
Yeah
we
we're
here
for
medical
and
that's
all
we
are
here
for
and
I'm
not
trying
to
be
cute
here,
I'm
just
there.
There
is
no
application
pending
for
adult
use,
but
there
was
no,
you
know
forever
ban
promised
either
what
we
promised
to
do
to
the
community,
to
the
counselor
and
and
to
anyone
who
asked-
and
we
have
tremendous
support
for
this
application
is
to
apply
for
medical
like
we
initially
did
back
in
way
back.
A
Okay-
and
there
was
no
other
location
on
the
vfw
that
wasn't
below
that
below
grade.
M
I
Yeah
I
mean
I
appreciate
the
question
I
I
guess
the
you
know.
This
thing
was
supported
by
the
neighborhood
associations,
I
think
in
part,
because
it
didn't
scream
out.
You
know
cannabis
dispensary,
and
I
think
there
was
some
some
value
in
that
about
putting
it
subterranean.
You
know
it's
a
perfectly
good
space.
The
heights
of
the
of
the
of
the
fluorites
are
attic
are
more
than
adequate,
they're
full
heights,
but
I
think
now
putting
it
really
front
and
center
has
some
appeal
for
some
people,
not
all
the
neighbors
are
on
board
with
cannabis.
Q
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
jack
duggan
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
just
like
to
go
on
record
support.
The
applicants
have
been
in
this
process
for
about
four
years
and
they've
met
with
the
community
groups
countless
times
they
do
have
letters
of
non-opposition
from
the
boston
trailer
park,
association,
the
west
roxbury
neighborhood
council
and
the
charles
river
spring
valley
association.
You
know
with
the
stipulation
that
it
does
remain
medicinal,
and
that's
it
right
now.
Thank
you.
AY
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
this
is
peter
favreto
from
city
councilor,
matt
o'malley's
office.
I'm
just
talking
about
jack
said
you
know.
The
council
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
this
application.
They've
gone
on.
You
know,
they've
gone
through
an
extensive
community
process
and
has
received
support
for
medical
marijuana
dispensary.
So
yes,
I
just
want
to
go
on
record
support.
Thank.
AY
E
Yes,
I
was
just
making
sure
no
one
else
had
anything
to
say.
We
have
one
caller.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
so
all
the
right
hands
raising
energy.
Thank
you.
So,
given
that
information
it
feels
like
to
this
petitioner
only
would
be
a
wise
move.
So
may
I
have
a
motion
please.
A
Know
the
problem
is,
this
is
just
this
is
the
applicant
and
not
the
property
owner,
because
we
see
this
all
up
and
down
the
vfw
and
essentially
dorchester
rav
too
so
yeah.
I,
mr
ross,
what's
the
likelihood
we'll
see
some
action
on
that.
I
Well,
one
thing
we
could
do
is
we
are
getting
the
only
thing
our
lease
is
specific
on
are
two
handicapped
parking
spaces?
We,
our
plan,
is
to
locate
them
right
next,
to
the
lift.
I
We
could
stripe,
those
and
clean
them
up,
and
at
least
there
would
be
an
improvement
on
those
two
spaces
that
we
do
have
control
over.
We
would
be
happy
to
offer
that.
A
D
Mr
ehrlich,
this
is
jeff
yeah.
Could
you
ask
not
only
to
this
applicant
only
but
for
medicinal
use
only.
A
A
What
I
don't
want
to
have
happen,
then,
is
make
it
an
absolute
for
them
that
they
couldn't
at
some
point
get
into
recreational
marijuana.
B
AU
Bran
alpine
advisory
services
alpine
way,
we
are
here
today
seeking
a
change
of
use
from
a
three
unit
dwelling
to
a
four
unit
dwelling
expansion
into
the
basement,
which
requires
a
variance
there's
two
additional
dimensional
violations
far
is
excessive.
The
code
allows
for
0.8,
the
existing
far
is
0.98
and
the
proposed
far
would
be
1.25
and
open
space
isn't
sufficient.
AU
AU
What
is
proposed
is
a
fourth
unit
which
will
contain
three
bedrooms
and
two
bathrooms
with
access
from
the
front
entryway
and
egress
to
the
rear.
The
existing
three
units,
the
first
floor
level,
has
two
bedrooms
and
two
bathrooms.
The
second
and
third
floor
levels
have
three
bedrooms
in
two
bathrooms.
AU
A
So
mr
moran
was
this
address
before
this
board
in
the
past.
No,
it's
not
been
before
this
board
at
all
at
all.
As
far
as
checking
on
the
jacket.
AU
A
Okay,
how
are
the
plans
mr
ellick
well
well,.
G
I
was
all
I
was
given.
Maybe
there
are
more
plans
in
this
is
a
floor
plan.
There's
no
elevation,
it
doesn't
show
what
this
florida
ceiling
height
is.
It
doesn't
show
what
the
relationship
is
degrade
and,
as
I
look
at
the
google
maps
it
looks
to
be
like
it
is.
The
majority
of
the
unit
is
below
grade,
but
I
can't
tell
because
there
are
no
elevations.
AU
AU
The
plans
for
the
original
alt
application
did
not
follow
with
the
change
and
filing
of
the
this
alt.
The
plans
are
being
screened
and
show.
The
existing
condition
there
will
require
will
be
required
for
the
bedrooms
facing
the
street
that
there
would
be
a
dig
out
similar
to
the
adjoining
building
at
80.
G
AU
Window
well,
or
what
do
you
mean
well,
that
would
be
a
part
of
the
landscaping
either
a
window
well
or
a
terrace.
There's
sufficient
space
in
the
front
yard
to
have
a
step
down
and
have
a
a
terrace.
G
G
P
P
G
Is
the
yes,
you
would
need
window
weld
because
that's
too
that's
too
high
for
for
an
egress
window.
AU
Right
well,
the
window
would
start
at
42
inches,
which
basically
three
feet.
So
you,
the
window
well,
would
be
approximately
two
feet
to
get
to
grade.
A
BA
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
jessica,
thomas
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services
we
held
in
a
butters
meeting
on
august
11
2020.
during
the
meeting
neighbors
expressed
concerns
about
increased
parking
issues
and
the
fact
that
adding
a
fourth
unit
will
set
a
negative
precedence.
Inversely.
BA
A
BA
Don't
have
a
lot
of
information
on
the
inside
of
it.
I
know
that
the
outside
the
exterior
is
consistent
with
a
lot
of
the
the
homes
on
the
street,
the
brownstones
okay,.
A
Okay,
anybody
else
to
either
speak
and
support
are
in
opposition.
BB
Yes,
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
samuel.
Rutado,
I'm
from
the
office
of
city
council,
president
kim
janey.
We
have
received
only
letters
in
opposition
and
also
concerns
about
this
applicant,
who
owns
all
the
properties
in
the
area
and
they
think
he's
kind
of
an
absentee
landlord.
So
presidential
would
like
to
go
in
a
position
of
this
project.
Thank
you.
AD
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
karen
foley
anis
wasabi
george's
office,
and
I
also
because
of
what
sam
said
from
council
president's
office.
We've
received
multiple
emails
in
opposition
and
we
don't
want
to
go
on
record
in
opposition.
Thank
you.
B
Madam
chair
secretary,
here
we
have
23
letters
of
support
and
13
letters
of
opposition
and
the
opposition's
basically
no
no
extended
living
in
the
basement
and
rbc
density.
BC
Oh,
thank
you,
hello.
This
is
michael
winston
homeowner,
an
applicant
relating
to
88
and
92
lambert
and
given
community
requests,
we
are
deferring.
This
is
our
second
year
michael.
A
Michael
hold
on
a
minute,
please
I'm
sorry,
I
thought
you
were
going
to
give
testimony
on
82
winthrop
street
yeah.
A
Hold
on
please.
AB
Hi,
this
is
lorraine,
payne
wheeler
and
I'm
calling
on
behalf
of
the
neighborhood
association.
My
address
is
85
moreland
street
and
the
neighborhood
association
is
roxbury
path
forward
and
we
attended
the
butters
meeting
and
we
also
they
were
kind
enough
to
attend
a
neighborhood
association
meeting,
and
there
was
no
support
for
this
project
now.
I
would
say
that
he
does
own
other
properties
in
the
neighborhood.
AB
Perhaps
his
tenant
signed
something,
but
we
submitted
to
the
board
and
you
can
look
at
the
you
can
see
the
addresses
the
people
who
live
close,
the
people
who
live
next
door
at
80
winthrop
street,
the
person
that
owns
another
one
of
those
brownstones
in
that
row
at
88
winter
street.
They
are
opposed
and
they're
the
people
that
are
going
to
be
impacted.
A
So
so
lorraine,
please
hold
on
for
a
minute,
give
us
the
reason
for
the
opposition.
Well,
for
starters,.
AB
All
of
the
brownstones
in
that
row
are
three
families,
and
so
he
is
asking
to
put
three
bedrooms
in
the
basement
and
already
in
terms
of
renovating
the
floors.
Above
somehow
he's
managed
to
get
three
bedrooms
because
that's
what
the
renovation
is.
They
oftentimes
change
a
dining
room
into
a
bedroom,
for
example,
and
that's
fine.
AB
Those
upper
level
units
are
not
part
of
this
discussion,
but
then
to
on
top
of
that
to
add
three
more
bedrooms
into
the
basement
is
just
excessive
and
it
doesn't
make
the
zoning
code
and
we
would
just
ask
the
board
to
the
actual
neighbors
I'd
be
happy
to
look
at
those
letters
later
and
the
other
issue
is
this:
how
many
bedrooms
did
he
now
say
three,
six
eight
and
then
three
in
the
basement
is
11.
AB
and
11
people
are
going
to
park
behind
that
building.
I
don't
think
so,
and
so
the
other
issue
is
we
sent
a
copy,
a
photo
to
the
isd
ambassador,
the
existing
rear
of
the
property.
AB
Just
yesterday,
it's
a
mess
back
there,
and
so
when
we
express
that
there
are
some
concerns
about
this
owner,
we
are
giving
you
sort
of
a
view
of,
and
so
we
just
respectfully
he's
a
part
of
the
neighborhood,
he
can
run
his
apartment
building,
but
I
really
think
that
we
must
ask
for
him
not
to
add
those
bedrooms
in
the
basement.
Thank
you
thank
you.
AB
Can
I
say
something
else,
there's
another
rebutter!
That's
on
this
call.
His
name
is
tom,
so
I
I
would
ask
that
you
call
on
him.
Okay,.
AV
Good
morning,
madam
chair
good
morning
to
the
zone
boarding
zone
members,
my
name
is
walter
reed.
I
am
the
owner
of
88
winthrop
street.
AV
I
currently
have
the
other
driveway
that
I
am
deeded
to
that
all
the
buildings
between
88
to
80
utilize
for
access.
There
have
been
a
number
of
construction
vehicles
and
dumpsters
accessing
80
and
82
winthrop
street
across
my
property,
which
is
private
and
I've
had
some
damage
done
to
a
banister
on
my
stairwell.
A
So,
mr
reed,
just
let
me
ask
you
one
question:
what
is
what
is
your,
what
is
your
opposition,
based
on
for
the
change
of
use
from
a
three
to
four
family.
AV
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Can
I
get
you
calling
user
number
20.
A
A
Okay,
how
about
tom
and
jerry,
I
cannot
see
their
last
name.
Can
we
hear
from
them
please
hi
tom,
you're,
muted,.
BD
BD
Our
property
does
have
a
history
of
break-ins
thefts,
abandoned
vehicles,
squatters,
drug
use
and
narrow
access
with
vehicles,
units
being
leased,
as
opposed
to
them
being
occupied,
might
lead
to
increased
density
and
throughout
this
project,
my
wife
and
myself
have
seen
firsthand
a
lot
of
neglect
into
the
management
of
this
project.
That's
led
to
tremendous
amount
of
waste.
It's
led
to
rats
has
led
to
an
uneasy
feeling
of
someone
being
able
to
manage
a
property
of
renters,
as
opposed
to.
BE
BE
Support
or
opposition
I
am
in
opposition,
and
all
of
the
reasons
that
the
other
butters
have
stated
is
exactly
the
reason
or
are
the
reasons
that
I
oppose
this
variant
density
sharking
and
you
know
really
disturbs
me
that,
rather
than
selling
the
units
we
have
tenants
coming
in,
I
mean
it's,
I'm
just
I'm
really
emotional
about
this.
Okay!
Okay,
thank
you
so
much.
It's
very
disturbing
that,
rather
than
there
being
more
homeowners
in
this
community,
it's
all
about
money
for
the
developers.
BE
A
Thank
you.
So
mr
moran
you've
heard
the
comments
from
the
from
the
butters.
Can
you
tell
us
who
the
property
owner
is
because
I
know
you're
listed
as
the
applicant,
the
property.
AU
I
don't
know
the
company,
he
is
listening.
If
he
I
don't
know
if
he
can
be
unmuted.
A
No,
so
did
you
say,
mead.
AU
I
think
if
I
so
hold
on
go
ahead.
This
this
particular
property
was
in
substantial
disrepair
due
to
covet
the
rehabilitation
has
been
delayed.
There
are
abandoned
cars
in
a
one
abandoned
car
to
the
rear.
When
the
property
was
acquired,
the
owner
was
identified
there,
the
landscaping
in
rear
will
be
leveled
and
cleaned
access
is
by
the
right-of-way
curb
cut
at
80..
A
Okay
hold
on
mr
moran,
so
what
I
do
want
to
do
is
we've
heard
from
a
lot
of
abutters
about
the
life
on
the
ground,
and
it
feels
to
me,
like
the
applicant
needs
to
to
prove
prove
his
intent
about
maintaining
and
upgrading
the
quality
before
anything
else
happens,
and
that's
that's
what
it
sounds
like
to
me.
So
can
I
have
a
motion,
please
I'm
going
to
make
a
quick.
B
AA
AA
AU
AA
Oh
hello,
jeff,
okay,
I'm
sorry!
We
did
seek
a
deferral
back
in
september
and
in
that
time
we've
taken
a
floor
off
the
structure
and
reduced
our
unit
count
from
24
to
19..
However,
we're
just
waiting
for
a
public
meeting
and
due
to
covid
things
were
backed
up
and
delayed,
but
we
have
a
tentative

then
we'll
be
ready
to

BC
A
Winston
tell
us
how
long
how
long
a
deferral
you
would
need,
because
I
know
you
guys.
I
remember
your
attorney-
was
here
the
last
time
requesting
the
deferral.
It
sounds
to
me
that
you
still
have
a
little
ways
to
go
on
this.
BC
Yeah
we
are,
we
are
at
at
the
verge
of
a
really
incredible
agreement
with
the
community
okay
around
how
to
honor
henry's
legacy,
and
we
are
me
scheduling,
meetings
for
january.
We
would
we
would
not
need
longer
than
february.
BC
So
if
a
date
in
march
would
be
fine
for
us,
we
don't
need
significant
more
time.
We
were
ready
to
appear
today,
but
we
wanted
to
give
the
community
a
little
more
time
to
to
just
you
know,
respect
our
neighbors.
A
So
please,
okay,
may
I
have
a
motion.
Please
motion.
A
Oh
all,
those
in

any
opposed
motion
carries
man
go
ahead.
May
I
just
have
a
kyle
hall
who
sent
me
an
email
privately?
A
Can
you
please
send
that
post
that
publicly,
because
I
think
other
people
need
to
see
that?
Please
do
not
send
me
any
private
messages
if
you
want
anything
on
the
record
or
any
support,
a
technical
support.
Sorry,
what
was
the
date
again
on
that.
AK
R
Please
good
afternoon
manager,
members,
my
name
is
george
marancy,
an
attorney
with
the
business
address
of
350,
west
broadway
and
south
boston.
Madam
chair
members,
you
may
recall
that
this
matter
was
deferred.
Several
weeks
ago
there
was
a
question
as
to
whether
two
existing
head
houses
had
been
a
approved
by
this
board,
be
approved
by
the
bpda
in
design,
review
and
c,
ultimately
approved
by
the
inspectional
services
department.
I'm
withdrawing
both
of
these
matters
today
and,
unfortunately
I
have
to
report
that
that
the
head
houses
were
not
approved.
R
They
were
constructed
four
to
five
years
ago
on
each
of
these
two
buildings
and
my
clients
make
no
excuses
again.
Their
subcontractors
did
the
work,
but
they
take
full
responsibility
for
this.
This
error,
in
this
oversight,
my
clients
are
not
going
to
seek
to
get
try
to
obtain
relief
to
approve
these.
They
are
in
fact,
already
hired
a
subcontractor
to
remove
both
head
houses.
R
The
reason
why
they
haven't
been
done
yet
is
because
obviously
they
need
the
correct
hatch
in
each
instance
to
to
replace
the
the
gap
in
each
of
the
roofs
and
those
hatches
are
back,
ordered
they're,
going
to
take
approximately
two
weeks
to
come
in,
so
I'm
going
to
withdraw
both
applications,
and
you
know
we
will
follow.
I
will
follow
up
diligently
with
isd
and
let
them
know
in
fact
provide
the
proof
once
both
of
these
head
houses
have
been
removed.

AG
As
what
is
aware
from
previous
hearings,
the
michael
feltman
is
also
available
as
a
panelist
on
this.
As
the
board
is
aware,
mr
feldman
has
his
offices
has
totally
renovated
this
building
and
has
brought
in
a
brewery
tenant
the
first
tenant,
even
pre-culvert,
was
unable
to
make
it
at
this
location
and
they
have
a
new
tenant
that
is
seeking
to
expand
the
occupancy
and
also
provide
live
entertainment
as
part
of
this
process.
AG
These
are
both
conditional
uses
as
part
of
this
process.
You
should
have
letters
of
support,
so
mr.
A
AG
Well,
the
the
there's
a
hundred
seats
outdoors,
the
there's,
there's
one
area
on
the
floor
plan.
You
can
see
that
the
only
place
that
they
could
have
outdoor
seating
because
there
is
seating
along
the
building
and
seating
on
the
other
side.
So
there
would
be
outdoor
seating,
they'd
probably
have
to
take
at
least
one
of
the
tables
out.
So
it
would
be
approximately
48
seats
where
there
could
be
a
live,
entertainment.
AG
There
is
no
parking
and
I'd
just
like
to
address
that
in
part
of
my
presentation.
The
this
property
has
been
totally
renovated.
There
has
been
a
significant
process
with
the
people
in
the
area.
You
have
letters
of
support,
not
only
from
for
both
of
the
proposals
from
the
order.
A
I'm
asking
you
a
technical
question
about
parking
and
how
is
parking
supposed
to
go
because
we
know
across
the
street
there's
orchard
gardens
and
we
want
to
make
sure
the
residents
there
aren't
significantly
impacted.
AG
But,
madam
chair,
if
they
was
going
to
get
to
that
beard,
you
have
you
have
the
head
of
the
orchard
garden
residents
association
waiting
to
testify
in
support
of
this
and
the
not
only
orchard
park
residents,
association,
but
the
new
market
association
and
the
arctic
pilot
school.
If,
if
I
could
finish
madam
chair,
I
want
a
neighborhood
location
that
provides
these
types
of
place,
a
place
to
go
and
they're
overwhelmingly
in
support.
AG
We
anticipate
that
a
large
majority
of
the
people
that
would
come
here
are
going
to
be
from
the
area
and
we
anticipate
that
most
of
them
would
be
walking
the
as
part
of
the
process.
There
was
never
an
issue
brought
up
by
any
whether
it's
new
market
or
the
pilot
school
or
the
residents
association
of
the
parking.
A
However,
as
the
board,
as
as
the
board
people,
we
are
asking
tell
us
about
random
people
who
might
want
to
come
here.
Just
like
people
come
to
dorchester
of
to
the
brewing
there
tell
us
how
you're,
anticipating
that's
going
to
happen.
Mr
feldman,
maybe
you
have
some
some
information
to
offer.
AG
Well
before
mr
feldman,
madam
chair,
the,
we
would
anticipate
that
a
large
portion
of
the
people
that
would
be
coming
there
would
be
coming
there
after
after
people
are
out
of
work
and
also
on
the
weekends,
and
there
is
significant
on
street
parking
in
that
area.
So
and
mr
feldman
can
address
the
parking
better
than
I
can
for
that.
Square's
offices.
T
Just
briefly,
the
parking
lot
we
have
on
site
accommodates
24
cars
when
the
outdoor
seating
is
set
up.
The
way
that
is,
we
lose
about
three
spots,
so
we
would
be
left
with
about
21
cars
parking
on
the
site.
T
T
A
That
is
what
I
was
asking.
Thank
you
for
getting
to
the
point
all
right.
Sorry,
madame

no
problem
is
how
are
the
plans,
mr

traffic

Mr

H
Good
afternoon,
once
again,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
attorney
matt
echol,
with
drago
and
stanno,
with
the
business
address
of
11
beacon
street
here
on
behalf
of
541
mass
app
sponsors
is
john
burns,
the
owner
of
the
property
and
arthur
chu.
The
project
architect.
One
point
of
clarification
from
what
was
written
for
the
record.
We're
now
seeking
documentary
to
five
condominium
units,
not
seven
we're
still
looking
to
renovate
the
building
and
install
a
full
sprinkler
system,
but
only
proposing
five
units.
H
H
The
church
has
been
used
more
recently
with
the
lower
levels
operating
as
a
kitchen
church
function,
hall
and
service
area,
and
then
the
upper
floors
have
been
residences
for
the
family
with
the
church
and
also
the
additional
lodgers
when
it
was
applicable,
so
we're
seeking
to
change
that
to
five
condominium
units.
Each
of
the
levels
would
contain
one
unit
with
one
three
bedroom
unit
and
four
two
bedroom
units
with
an
average
size
of
1289
square
feet.
H
The
zoning
violations,
as
mentioned
this
is
a
row
house
district,
so
mfr
is
allowed
up
to
four
units.
We
are
seeking
five
units,
so
we
need
to
use
variance,
as
you
can
see,
from
the
picture
on
the
screen.
This
is
in
the
middle
of
a
section
of
row.
Houses
along
and
most
of
these
buildings
contain
anywhere
between
three
and
ten
residential
units,
so
we
are
seeking
that
one
extra
fifth
unit,
although
we
think
it
is
consistent
and
worked
with
the
community
to
come
up
with
that
number,
whereas
we
started
seven.
H
As
I
mentioned,
the
second
violation
is
additional
lot
area
per
additional
dwelling
unit.
We
need
2
000
per
additional
dwelling
unit
and
we
have
500..
H
The
far
allowed
is
1.0
we're
proposing
a
2.7
we're
not
proposing
any
changes
to
the
structure.
So
all
that
2.7
is
pre-existing.
We're
just
changing,
as
I
mentioned,
from
church
service
areas
and
function
halls
into
living
spaces.
H
We're
proposing
16.
again,
this
is
pre-existing,
we're
just
building
a
rear
deck
which
goes
up
and
covers
an
existing
right
now
on
the
second
story,
so
that's
not
changing
anymore,
we're
just
making
that
more
functional,
rather
than
dead
space
and,
finally,
parking
you're
required
to
have
one
space
for
dwelling
unit.
Obviously
this
served,
as
I
mentioned,
as
a
church.
So
there
were
cars
coming
going
on
certain
days,
but
no
place
for
parking,
so
we'd
require
five
spaces
and
we
have
zero.
H
A
So
tell
us
where
you're,
creating
that
additional
unit
is
that
what
we're
looking
at
as
the
proposed
lower
level
floor
plan,
correct.
H
Madam
chair,
yes,
there'll
be
one
unit
per
floor,
so
the
lower
level,
as
you
can
see,
maybe
in
the
initial
photos,
where
there's
kind
of
that
traditional
dig
out
in
the
front.
So
there's
steps
down
so
there's
a
full
walkout
in
the
front
and
the
rear
in
the
rear.
There's
that
kind
of
courtyard
patio
area
in
the
front
is
in
that
dugout
already
existing
area.
So
there
are
steps
down
and
then
a
direct
entrance,
a
full
walk,
walk
in
on
the
front
as
well
as
a
walk
out
on
the
back.
H
This
would
be
our
largest
unit.
It
is
three
bedrooms
with
an
office
and
a
den,
so
this
is
almost
2
000
square
feet
and
then,
as
you
move
up,
the
first
floor
is
similar,
although
slightly
smaller,
it's
a
1700
square
foot,
two
bedroom
with
an
office
and
then
floors
two
three
and
four
are
all
essentially
identical
at
907
square
feet
for
units
three
and
four
and
eight
fifty
per
unit
five.
Those
three
would
be
two
bed
two
bath
as
well.
H
You
are
madam
chair:
there's
a
existing
rear,
deck
on
kind
of
a
lower
level
and
then
there'd
be
one
larger
deck
coming
off
unit.
Three
the
upper
levels
of
floor
three
and
four
will
not
have
any
decks.
They
have
existing
fire
escapes
and
and
part
of
our
work
with
the
community
was
all
the
way
up
because
they
wanted
to
keep
it
consistent
with
some
of
the
other
structures
that
we're,
along
with.
H
H
That
deck
would
be
21
feet,
9
inches
by
25
feet,
2
inches
and
again
that
that's
kind
of
all
existing
roof
space
over
the
lower
level.
The
existing
conditions
plan
shows
that
it's
kind
of
dead
space
now,
so
that
would
be
proposed
to
be
a
deck
and
kind
of
just
infill
that
roof
space
as
is
but
not
really
change.
The
structure.
H
G
Well,
a
little
incomplete
in
terms
of
information.
You
know,
there's
a
front
elevation
inside
and
the
rear
elevation,
no
side
elevation.
So
it's
a
little
hard
to
understand
the
relationship
of
the
lower
level
units
on
to
the
to
the
grade.
G
It
looks
like
they're
at
grade
in
the
rear
and-
and
I
guess,
there's
a
you-
know-
collision
step
in
the
front,
but
it's
a
little
bit
hard
to
tell.
H
That's
correct,
mr
the
best
way,
maybe
to
conceptualize
the
the
front
elevation
would
actually
be
the
site
pictures
you
can
see
how
it
has
that
kind
of
traditional
walk
down
and
then
a
separate
entrance
to
the
left,
and
you
can
kind
of
see
the
windows
in
relation
to
it.
Madame
ambassador,
I
don't
know
if
you
can
go
back
up
to
one
of
the
first
couple
site
pictures,
but
that
might
be
a
better
illustration
just
to
kind
of
get
an
idea
of
the
grade.
H
There's
that
I'm
sorry
yeah,
sorry
a
little
further
back
up,
there's
more
of
an
aerial
view.
That
shows
you
well
one
more,
perhaps
yeah.
So
it's
not
the
best
picture
here,
but
you
can
see
how
there's
that
that
gate
to
the
right
of
the
steps
with
a
couple
steps
down,
you
can
see
the
existing
would
be
direct
asset
access
from
the
front.
There's
a
little
kind
of
it's,
not
quite
a
courtyard.
It's
not
that
big,
but
there's
some
planters
and
kind
of
a
landing
down.
There
represents
the
front
elevation.
G
All
right
so
I
mean
that
so
and
what's
the
floor
to
ceiling
height
in
the
basement,
be
nine
six.
Okay,
all
right!
The
drawings
are
adequate.
Madam
chair.

Hi
yes,
good

madam

and
members

my

The

like

of

AZ
On
august

2020
and
a
butters
meeting
was
held
what
a
neighbors
heard
from
applicants
related
to
seven
residential
units
in

There
were
no
major
concerns
for
the
applicants
had
several
meetings
with
the
chester
square,
civic
association,
where
the
number
of
units
was
raised,
the
applicants
offended
their
proposal
to
five
units,
which
is
in
love
with
specific
support.
We've
received
layers
of
support
from
chester

the
five

BG
President

address
for
the
record.
Please.
BI
BI
I
must
apologize
first
off
and
say
that
all
of
these
other
meetings
that
I've
been
a
part
of
I've
been
able
to
share
my
screen,
and
so
I
did
have
a
presentation
for
you.
But
I'll
fly
a
little
blind
and
fly
a
little
solo
here.
So.
A
How
about
you
use
your
time
just
to
explain
to
us
what's
being
proposed,
they're
kind
of
interested
in
the
dimensions
of
the
metal
deck
and
what
what
kind
of
metal
it
is
sure.
BI
I
mean
this:
is
I'm
not
I'm
not
an
architect
by
by
trade
at
all,
but
it's
this
is
the
typical
metal
deck
that
you
see
throughout
the
south
end
it's
on
the
back
of
the
building.
One
of
the
kind
of
misconceptions
that
we
have
right
now
is
on
our
first
level
floor,
framing
plan,
which
is
the
top
page
of
the
presentation
that
you're
looking
at
it's
kind
of
a
top-down
view.
BI
We
have
that
we
have
a
platform
on
that,
it's
being
called
the
deck,
and
I
understand
why
it's
being
called
the
deck.
So
it's
it's
that
figure.
On
the
left
hand
side.
I
understand
why
it's
being
called
deck,
we're
not
we're
not
proposing
that
it
be
used
as
a
deck,
we're
being
recall,
we're
proposing
that
it
be
used
simply
as
egress
to
access
the
ground
in
case
of
emergency
in
case
of
a
fire.
BI
It
is
seven
feet
wide
by
nine
feet:
long
extending
off
the
back
of
the
building.
Okay,.
A
So
hold
on
hold
on
how
are
the
plans,
mr
ehrlich,
the
drawings
are
adequate?
Do
you
have
any
comments
on
this.
AZ
Yes,
good
afternoon,
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
kim
cruzioli
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
The
mayor's
office
would
like
to
go
on
record
and
support
of
this
proposal,
with
the
proviso
that
approval
is
only
granted
for
a
fire
escape
and
not
real
back
balcony
support
deck.
On
october
5th
2020
applicants
met
with
the
cameraman
civic
association,
no
major
concerns.
AZ
A
BI
I
also
have
two
additional
letters
of
support,
one
from
the
director
butter,
david
goldman
at
566,
who
is
the
new
owner
of
that
property
and
also
one
from
216,
juan
guillermo
that
is,
and
his
wife.
A
But
but
we
should,
we
should
use
the
provider
from
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services
that
this.
This
is
a
fire
escape
only
and
not
a
proposed
death.
G
Well,
I
mean
it's
actually
a
little
more
than
a
fire
escape,
but
down
to
ground
level.
It's.
A
No
hold
on
so
I.
B
BF
So
good
afternoon,
madam
chair,
I'm
proposing
to
add
a
basement
apartment
in
a
two
family.
Building
that
I've
owned
for
nine
years
and
the
apartment
will
be
a
studio
apartment.
The
entire
apartment
will
be
below
grade.
BF
We
will
have
an
egress
window
and
a
a
walkout
with
and
you'd
walk
out,
the
building
with
stairs
a
retaining
wall
and
stairs
up
to
to
access
the
outside
and
there's
also
another
entrance
means
of
egress
through
the
corner
of
the
of
the
basement
and,
let's
see
and
so
we're
as
part
of
the
project.
We
plan
to
sprinkle
the
entire
building
as
required
and
and
that's
that's
the
gist
of
it.
A
Okay,
tell
us
what
the
flow
to
ceiling
height
is
in
that
space.
BF
Sure
that
that
particular
building
has
pretty
good
floor
to
ceiling
height,
it's
around
it's
between
90,
it's
around
92
inches
between
90
and
92
throughout
the
basement.
A
Okay
and
let's
see
and
are,
is
the
utility
space
separate
from
the
from
the
unit
access
to
it.
AZ
BF
There
will
be
utility
rooms
adjacent
to
the
unit
and
it
would
be
accessible
if
you
walk
outside
of
the
apartment.
You
would
not
it's
not
accessible
from
inside
the
apartment.
You
have
to
walk
outside
and
I
usually
keep
the
utility
room
secured.
A
Okay,
let
me
just
see
so
your
real
house
is
the
one
with
the
little
pink
flamingos
in
the
front
yard.
BF
Effective
looking
great
house,
we've
done
a
lot
of
renovation
to
to
the
home.
We
bought
it
in
2010
and
put
a
lot
of
money
in
and
we
currently
rent
those
units
out
we're
not
owner
occupants
we,
but
we
try
to
keep
our
our.
We
just
try
to
keep
very
invested
in
the
neighborhood
and
our
rents
reasonable.
I
am
proud
to
say
that
three
of
the
of
our
occupants
former
resident
tenants
have
moved
on
to
homeownership
because
of
the
way
we've
structured
things.
So
you
know
we're
we're
we're
responsible
landlords.
G
Well,
this
is
again
another
below
grade
basement
turned
into
a
living
space,
so
you
know
technically
they're
adequate.
I
just
don't
know
if
that's
what
we
want
to
keep
improving.
A
Yeah:
okay,
any
questions
from
the
board.
BA
Good
afternoon
man
of
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
jessica,
thomas
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
We
held
our
letters
meeting
on
september,
29
2020
and
did
hear
from
residents
who
supported
the
owner,
who
has
been
a
long-term
member
of
the
community.
However,
I
did
receive
one
letter
of
opposition
from
a
neighbor
who
believed
who
believes
the
additional
unit
will
not
fit
with
the
existing
homes
on
the
street.
Given
the
fact
that
there
is
a
mix
of
multi-family
units
in
the
area,
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
to
support
the
project.
A
Okay,
given
that
information,
may
I
have
a
motion
please.
C
B
B
R
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
george
marancy,
I'm
an
attorney
with
the
business
address,
350
west
broadway
in
south
boston.
I
represent
harry
on
carbonara,
who
is
the
owner
of
the
property.
Madam
chair
members,
this
is
an
existing
three-family
dwelling
in
a
three
f-four
thousand
zoning
sub-district
in
the
roxbury
neighborhood
district.
R
Madam
chair,
my
client
was
proceeding
with
what
he
believed
to
be
a
zoning
compliant
full
interior
renovation
of
the
building,
as
well
as
the
addition
of
a
three-story
rear
edition,
an
infill
edition
of
dimensions
of
approximately
seven
feet
by
16
feet.
He
was
issued
a
refusal
letter
in
march
for
a
violation
attributable
to
excessive
story
height.
I
believe,
honestly,
that
the
the
zoning
refusal
letter
is
an
error.
However,
my
client
elected
to
appeal
the
refusal
and
to
seek
seek
the
required
variance
from
the
board
manager
members
there.
R
This
is
a
building.
There
was
three
dwelling
units.
It's
remaining
three
dwelling
units.
There
was
a
living
space
in
the
basement
of
the
building
at
the
time
my
client
purchased
it.
At
that
time
there
was
a
bedroom,
a
laundry
utility
room
and
a
bathroom
under
under
the
proposed
renovation.
There
would
again
remain
three
units.
The
first
unit
would
remain,
as
is
200
750
square
foot.
Approximately
two-bedroom
unit
two
would
be
approximately
seven
hundred
square
foot
one
bedroom,
and
then
that
would
be
units
two
and
three.
R
I'm
sorry
and
then
unit
one,
which
is
the
bi-level
unit,
would
be
a
one-bedroom
plus
it's
approximately
twelve
1200
square
feet.
The
building
is
a
three-story
building.
I
believe
that,
because
of
the
three-story
vertical
addition
in
the
partially
exposed
basement
that
the
examiner
elected
to
construe
this
as
a
four-story
building,
that's
what
the
violation
is
for
exceeding
the
maximum
number
of
stories,
but
it's
clearly
a
three-story
building
to
answer
some
questions
that
I
know
may
be
coming.
R
The
ceiling
height
in
the
basement
is
eight
feet
in
the
basement
would
be
under
the
proposed
plan.
There's
currently
one
bedroom
there
there
would
be
two
bedrooms
in
the
basement,
one
with
an
ensuite
bath.
I
have
a
and
with
escape
windows
from
the
bedrooms
that
would
be
to
dug
out
what
what
the
board
has
been
seeing
described
as
an
area
way.
R
This
would
be
fully
excavated
with
you
know,
stairs
up
from
the
area
leading
from
the
from
the
windows
no
violations
attributable
to
any
of
this
work.
As
I
say,
the
only
violation
that
was
cited
is
a
violation
on
story,
height.
A
R
I
was
going
to
say
no
but
I'll
say
not
to
my
knowledge.
I
believe
that
the
answer
is
no.
He
does
not.
A
Okay,
okay-
and
this
wasn't
before
this
board
on
prior.
What
was
it.
R
Not
to
my
knowledge,
madam
chair,
my
client
purchased
the
building
in
you
know
when
it
was
in
a
pronounced
state
of
disrepair
fairly.
This
honestly,
I
I
have
to
say
this.
I
don't
want
to
use
the
expression
landed
in
my
lap,
but
I
really
had
nothing
to
do
with
this
until
about
a
week
ago.
This
is
a
client
I've
represented
in
the
past,
and
he
asked
me
to
represent
him
at
the
hearing
after
he
explained
what
happened.
R
So
I
don't
know
much
about
the
history,
but
my
my
understanding
and
belief
is
that
he
purchased
the
building.
I
think,
if
you're
looking
at
the
google
street
view,
it
was
in
a
pronounced
state
of
disrepair
and
he's
been
proceeding,
as
I
said,
was
what
he
believed
to
be
a
zoning
compliant
renovation,
but
for
the
issuance
of
this
refusal
letter.
A
R
Yeah,
it's
a
three-story
edition
and
it
says
the
plan
that's
showing
now
on
on
the
screen.
That's
the
existing.
It
shows
the
the
outdated
fire
escape
system.
I
forgot
to
mention
there
would
be
a
new
rear,
egress
system
as
part
of
this
again,
that's
zoning
compliant,
which
is
why
the
plans
of
the
board
sees
now
say.
R
You'll
see
and
you'll
see
if
we
keep
that's
the
demo
plan.
If
we
go
down
one
more,
maybe
colette
and
I
should
show
the
proposed
there
we
go
so
you
can
see
there's
up
in
the
top
right.
You
can
see
where
the
where
the
building
edition
is
it's
not
even
quite
actually
squared
off
it's
it's
smaller
because
of
the
radio
side,
yard
setback
requirements.
A
Okay,
okay
and
there
is
no
well
there,
there
couldn't
be
a
roof
deck.
Okay.
How
are
the
plans?
Mr
ehrlich.
G
Well,
actually,
what's
on
the
screen
is
more
detailed
than
what
I
previewed.
So
there
was
not
a
lot
of
information
in
those
plans.
This
seems
to
be
a
little
clearer.
Mr
morancy
are
the
it
looks
like
there's
a
furnace
sort
of
a
closet
in
each
unit
if
it's
correct
so
mechanical
setup.
Yes,.
R
Yep,
that
is
correct,
so
there's
there's
no
necessary
common
access
to
that.
What
you're
seeing
there
in
the
basement
plan-
and
I
agree
with
you-
the
plans
on
the
screen
are
better
even
than
I
the
plans
I
have.
I
think
mr
eric
and
I
have
the
same
plans
and
I'm
happy
to
see
the
greater
detail
on
the
screen.
G
Yeah,
no,
then,
because
there
was
no
none
of
the
functions
of
the
rooms
that
were
outlined
where
one
of
the
plans
I'm
looking
at
anyway,
I
mean
I'm
a
little
sounding
like
a
broken
record.
There's
no
elevation!
So
it's
all
again
it's
hard
to
tell
what
the
what
the
quality
of
the
living
space
would
be
in
the
basement
relative
to
great,
because
there
are
no
elevations.
Madam
chair,
I.
BG
BG
R
I'm
not
sure
colette.
If
you
have,
I
did
submit
to
zba
staff
and
I
thought
it
might
be
included.
I
have
a
a
letter
from
eric.
G
All
right,
then
I
didn't,
then
I
didn't
I
didn't
get
those
as
well.
That's
that's
very
good.
Okay.
So
the
relationship
to
grade
of
the
basement
unit
looks,
I
mean
just
from
the
drawing
there's
no
dimensions
there.
Well,
and
I
guess
there
are
a
few
yeah
I
mean
that
looks
okay.
BA
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
jessica,
thomas
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services
we
held
in
a
butters
meeting
on
september.
29Th
2020.
during
a
meeting
residents
did
express
concerns
about
parking,
would
seem
to
be
overall
supportive
of
the
owner,
correcting
the
changes
needed
to
be
made
to
update
the
building.
So
we'd
like
to
ground
record,
to
support
the
front.
BA
A
BG
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair,
this
is
dev
from
president
kim
janey's
office.
President
jamie
would
like
to
go

This
is
a
change
of
occupation,
cannabis,
dispensary,
retail,
the
violation,
article
67,
section,
11.,
use
of
regulation
of
the
canismus
establishment
as
conditionally,
used
in
an
lc
sub-district
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please
hello,.
I
Ma'am
chair
members
of
the
board,
this
is
mike
ross
attorney
mike
ross
with
the
business
address
at
one
international
place
here
today
with
the
aforementioned
address.
What
we
have
here
is
a
former
convenience
store
in
the
roslindale
section
of
boston,
which
we
would
be
making
into
proposing
into
a
conditional
use
required
adult
use
cannabis
dispensary.
I
What
you
see
in
front
of
you
is
a
siteman
that
has
on-site
parking
on-site
delivery
and,
if
you
scroll
down,
there's
some
additional
photos
that
are
worth
looking
at.
This
is
a
1320
square
foot
square
foot,
retail
there's
also
some
space
in
the
basement
for
storage
downstairs.
There's
some
plans.
If
you
go
a
little
bit
further
down.
I
There's
here's
a
like
an
elevation
and
some
renderings
as
well
that
what
you're
seeing
there
is
this
is
the
washington
street
at
the
top.
That's
the
archdale
from
the
side
red
the
customers
will
enter
through
the
rear
right
there.
You
see,
there's
a
fence
that
encloses
the
parking
area
they'll
enter
from
the
rear
and
they'll
actually
leave
and
exit
the
building
from
the
corner
of
archdale
and
washington.
I
There's
a
floor
plan.
That
kind
of
shows
that
better,
I
think
next
here.
Let
me
just
quickly
walk
you
through
right
here.
So
again,
I've
got
large
tails
along
the
left
side
of
the
of
the
floor
plan
and
washington
streets
along
the
right-hand
side.
I
mean
along
the
bottom
sorry
of
your
screen
and
you
see
that
the
entry
is
in
the
rear,
where
there
are
at
least
four
parking
spaces.
I
The
customer.
This
is
an
adult
use
facility,
so
the
customer,
21
and
older,
with
appropriate
id,
would
walk
in
through
that
initial
entry
lobby
would
be
checked
in
terms
of
checked
in
and
then
they
would.
They
would
be
able
to
walk
through
the
facility
itself,
they'd
be
allowed
in,
and
then
they
would
leave
through
that
that
corner
where
you
see
the
exit,
the
downstairs
there's
some
additional
storage
there's
also
a
room
for
safe
bathroom.
I
We
do
have
another
upstairs
as
well,
and
that's
that's
essentially
that
for
the
plan,
I
think
there's
a
couple
of
the
renderings
below
that
give
you
a
sense
of
what
this
is
going
to
feel
like
the
dba
is
urba
e-a-r-e-r-b-a
and
that's
kind
of
the
rendering
of
what
it
would
look
like
from
the
corner.
I
You
know
awnings
and
there's
a
pretty
busy
bus,
stop
there
on
the
on
washington
street.
So
if
there's
rain,
you
know
people
can
kind
of
stand
underneath
that
that
came
up
during
the
community
process,
a
couple
more
renderings
just
down
below
just
to
give
you
a
feel
for
how
it
would
be
looking
built
out
again
that
you'd
be
entering
through
that
rear.
That's
a
piece
of
the
the
fence
that
would
that
would
be
kind
of
containing
the
entire
area.
That's
how
people
will
go
in.
I
A
And
you
know
this
is
I'm
looking
at
my
old
notes,
and
it
looks
like
this
is
really
on
the
smaller
end
of
these
proposals
at
13,
20.
tell
us
how
you're
going
to
accommodate
for
walk-ins
and
how
lineup
is
going
to
occur
if
entrance
is
through
the
rear.
I
Yeah
I
mean
the
the
intent
was
to
put
the
entrance
to
the
rear,
so
that
the
extent
there
is
any
queueing
which
we
wouldn't
want
to
encourage,
we
want
to
try
to
limit.
You
can
do
that
through
technology.
You
can,
you
can
stagger
people.
A
lot
of
people
are
ordering
online,
not
just
for
covid,
but
in
general,
just
seems
to
be
how
how
it
works,
because
sometimes
certain
products
aren't
in
place.
I
People
want
to
secure
their
products
and
then
they
want
to
come
in
and
pick
it
up,
and
the
technology
will
allow
us
to
push
people
out
of
high
demand
areas,
but
as
more
and
more
of
these
appear
in
boston,
they're
supposed
to
be
52
eventually,
I
believe
these
neighborhood
shops
might
start
to
function
more
like
a
neighborhood
store
liquor
store,
perhaps
where
you're
not
getting
a
lot
of
people
from
outside
the
neighborhood
there's
not
a
lot
of
transients
through
this
particular
neighborhood.
You
have
a
lot
of
people
who
live
in
this
community.
I
I
You
know
earlier
we
showed
something
on
on
the
vfw.
I
think
there
you'll
see
a
lot
more
traffic
and
a
lot
of
more
passer
buys
here.
What
you
have
is
a
much
more
smaller
neighborhood
kind
of
shop.
A
Okay
and
so
you're
proposing
to
do
most
of
your
business
online
by
appointments
and
things
like
that,
I'm
not
worried
about
it
long
term.
I
am
worried
about
it
short
term
because
you're
right,
that's
a
very
busy
bus.
Stop
the
crossing
guards
across
the
street.
There's
all
kinds
of
you
know
activity
there,
and
so
that's
that's
what
I
was
primarily
concerned
about.
I
I
We
start
with
lots
of
supervision
and
lots
of
engagement
with
the
with
whether
it's
the
local
police,
or
you
know
the
boston,
police
or
or
what
have
you,
but
within
a
very
short
period
of
time,
we're
going
to
have
a
feel
for
the
volumes
and
the
type
of
activity
we're
going
to
see
there.
The
people
who
are
involved
in
this
shop
had
actually
come
before
this
board
before
they
have
good
experience,
they're
on
the
line
with
us.
I
Now,
one
of
them
actually
went
to
college
for
cannabis,
believe
it
or
not
in
california,
in
occidental
college
or
university,
and
and
did
some
studying
and
interning
and
working
in
in
the
industry
for.
I
It
was
dudley.
What
you
have
here
is
you
have
so.
I
Few
weeks
ago,
yes,
madam
chair,
it
was
these-
are
equity,
applicants
they're,
born
and
raised
in
boston,
they're
people
of
color
and
they're.
They
have
one
or
two
or
three
economy
bodegas
in
their
family.
What
they've
been
able
to
do
is
you
know
they
have
retiring
uncles
and
that
kind
of
thing.
I
Brian
chavez,
who's,
the
100
owner
and
his
brother
jason
chavez
who
are
on
the
call
with
us
today,
they've
pointed
out
in
meetings
that
there
are
actually
four
bodegas
in
this
immediate
area,
they're
all
kind
of
fighting
over
the
same
set
of
customers
and
it's
a
lot
of
competition.
So
in
a
way
this
will
help
the
other
bodegas
having
not
as
much
competition
and
allow
them
to
do
a
little
bit
more
business.
A
Excellent,
how
are
the
plans,
mr
ehrlich,
any
questions
from
the
board?
AM
Good
afternoon
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
joe
carpenter
from
the
base
of
neighborhood
services,
we
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
this
proposal.
The
applicants
went
through
a
thorough
community
process
and,
more
recently,
approved
by
the
boston
cannabis
board.
I
believe
the
cannabis
more
should
have
submitted
a
letter
to
the
zoning
board
with
the
support
they
received
from
the
community.
We
would
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
Thank
you.
BJ
Z
A
BD
A
So
so,
mr
ross
sure
you
already
have
coverage
on
on
the
project
on
vfw.
A
The
one
in
vfw
says:
well,
you
should
read
it
so
I
may
I
have
a
motion.
Please.
A
Okay,
excellent
all
those
is
there.
A
second.
A
A
And
who
is
this
joe
joe?
Thank
you

BK
Good
day,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
attorney
patrick
mahoney,
with
a
business
address
of
160
federal
street,
I'm
here
today
representing
the
owner,
my
client
max
cogan
in
the
proposal
of
this
project,
which
is
the
erection
of
a
two-family
dwelling
over
three
stories.
BK
As
the
secretary
mentioned,
we
are
seeking
some
forms
of
release,
specifically
floor
area
ratio,
the
proposed
floor
area
ratio
in
this
zoning
2f
zoning
subdistrict
is
0.6.
We
are
seeking
relief
at
with
a
proposal
of
0.93.
Additionally,
the
number
of
stories
2.5
stories
are
allowed
in
in
the
2f
5000
zoning
sub
district.
In
the
proposal,
although
the
top
floor
is
stepped
back,
does
not
qualify
as
a
half
story,
so
it
is
a
three-story
building,
as
well
as
a
rear
yard
setback.
BK
Parking
is
located
on
entirely
in
the
side
yard
of
either
side
yard
access
from
one
central
curb
cup
in
the
front
of
the
property,
because
parking
is
within
five
feet
of
a
law
line
in
article
51
that
seeks
zoning
release
as
well
as
1.75
parking
spaces
per
unit
are
required
here,
which,
for
the
rule
of
rounding
numbers,
would
be
four
and
we
have
two
spaces
as
tandem
spaces.
Do
not
count
as
parking
spaces.
A
Okay,
can
we
just
see
how
that
the
the
the
parking
is
proposed
to
work
so.
BK
BK
It
is
I'll
have
to
check
that
it
wasn't
cited
as
such.
It
could,
because
we're
seeking
some
relief.
I
did
not
look
into
that,
madam
chair,
specifically,
because,
with
any
zoning
relief
more
than
300
square
feet,
it's
the
same
exact
process.
A
A
Okay,
and
so
those
are
those
those
are
slider
doors
in
the
front-
was
that
what
it
is.
Y
BK
The
front
elevation
on
grade
has
a
first
story,
which
consists
primarily
of
a
living
room
and
floor
through
kitchen
and
a
half
bath.
The
second
floor
consists
of
a
play
room
and
a
bedroom
and
a
full
bath,
and
the
top
floor
is
a
master
bedroom
in
the
basement
is
the
utilities
and
storage
area
and
an
open
sort
of
living
room
that
would
which
would
be
access
via
the
sliders
to
the
exterior.
BK
Each
unit
is
two
bedrooms
and
three
and
a
half
bathrooms
and
the
approximate
square
footage
is
2400
square
feet
for
unit
1
and
about
twenty
one
hundred
square
feet
per
unit.
Two
okay:
this
is
the
great
elevation
from
there's
a
rear
slope
to
the
back
of
the
lot.
G
If,
if
you
could
put
colleen,
if
you
could
pull
up
the
sight
plan
by
the
parking,
yep
you're
suggesting
closing
the
curb
cut
on
the
left,
to
put
one
right,
smack
dab
in
the
middle
of
the
front
facade
of
the
house
and
then
yet
the
driveway
is
on
the
right.
The
driveway
is
on
the
right,
but
you
can
only
go
about
halfway
back
because
you
run
into
the
set
of
steps
right.
BK
Not
exactly
if
you
go
to
the
end,
oh,
I
guess
we
can
see
it
on
this
side.
If
you,
you
could
see
underline
the
where
it
acts.
This
is
the
street.
If
you
zoom
out
in
this
picture,
just
a
little
bit
you
can
see.
The
existing
driveway
is
on
the
left
is
where,
as
we're
looking
at
it,
that's
the
occurrence
right.
G
Why
wouldn't
you
move
it
over
to
the
right?
And
so
it's
not
still
it's
not
in
front
right
in
front
of
the
house
and
it's
more
in
line
with
where
the
driveway
is
going
to
be.
Oh,.
A
Yeah
because
oh
this
there's
a
temptation,
I
think,
as
I
look
at
this
for
front
yard
parking
yeah,
because
you
know
yes,
we
would
like
the
parking
on
the
side
yard,
but
the
layout
really
tempts
you
to
park
in
the
front
yard.
Yeah.
BK
One
space
on
the
left
one
space
on
the
right:
okay,
tayden
parking-
doesn't
count
in
article
51..
That
is
one
of
the
elements
that
we're
seeking
relief
for.
G
I
well
mean
I,
I
think
it's
a
little
problematic
in
terms
of
design
both
in
terms
of
the
appearance
and
also
in
terms
of
the
issue
that
the
chair
raised
about
the
temptation
to
to
to
use.
I
mean
in
my
neighborhood
we
have
someone
who
who
got
approval
for
a
garage
and
then
uses
the
front
of
the
garage
as
front
yard
parking,
which
was
not
what
it
was
intended
to
do.
G
Yeah
I
mean
that's
pretty
common,
and
I
think
this
this
lends
itself
to
that.
Okay,
I
I
would
anyway,
so
we
can,
that
can
be
dealt
with
under
design
review.
Is.
BL
Yes,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
conor
newman
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
Let
go
on
record
and
support
this
proposal
with
the
request
for
bpa
design
review.
We
conducted
a
butters
meeting
on
september.
9Th
there
was
a
mix
of
opinions
there.
There
were
some
residents,
including
a
director
butter
that
were
in
support
of
this
project
and
other
residents
that
had
concerns.
BL
I
believe
we
forwarded
three
letters
of
opposition
to
the
board.
Most
of
their
concerns
seemed
outlined
with
just
existing
conflicts
with
some
of
the
renters
in
the
area
who
are
students
at
one
of
the
local
universities
and
concerns
regarding
an
increase
in
density.
We
feel
you
know,
we
respect
the
opinions
of
these
abutters.
We
feel
that
those
concerns
and
the
proposal
for
the
increased
density
is
pretty
moderate
for
this
area.
BL
It's
proposal
for
a
two
family
in
an
existing
two
family
zone,
and
I
know
from
the
intention
that
was
presented
to
us
one.
The
owner
was
hoping
to
occupy
one
of
the
units
as
well,
so
we
feel
that
the
presence
of
an
owner-occupied
household
would
make
sure
that
some
potential
conflicts
were
rented
should
be
resolved.
BL
And
also
sorry,
they
went
on
to
the
brighton,
austin
improvement
association
and
received
support
of
them
as
well.
I'm
not
sure
if
annabelle
is
on,
but
they
just
had
some
concerns
of
the
design
review
and
they
also
echoed
requests
for
bpa
design
review.
Thank
you.
B
Madam
chair
secretary,
here
we
only
have
two
letters
of
non-support
and
it's
basically
density
and
changing
from
a
one
to
a
two
family.
BM
Good
afternoon
this
is
maury
mcrae
from
councillor
liz
breden's
office.
The
counselor
would
like
to
go
on
record
as
being
in
opposition
to
this
project.
The
counselor
has
no
problem
with
the
construction
of
a
two
family
on
this
lot,
but
she
has
concerns
about
the
scale
of
this
this
proposal
and
is
also
concerned
about
its
future.
BM
AK
BN
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
annabelle
gomes
from
the
brighton
nelson
improvement
association,
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
It
is
a
two
family
in
a
two
family
zone.
The
lot
size
is
consistent
with
the
other
two
families.
We
do
request
design
review
for
the
house,
as
we
did
have
questions
on
the
parking
as
well,
so
we
do
request
bpda
design
review
to
sort
that
out.
Thank.
BJ
You
hi
I'm
tina
liang,
I'm
the
owner
of
86
and
88
global
orgs.
My
property
is
behind
this
123
nottingham.
This
is
in
regards
to
opposition
of
section
9
and
position,
rear
yard
setback.
We
share
a
backyard
with
the
property
and
our
property
is
at
the
bottom
of
the
hill.
BJ
So
our
concern
is
about
construction
and
disruption
to
our
current
tenants
due
to
construction
noise,
but
mostly
construction,
deeper
that
may
go
down
to
our
property
backyard
over
time
with
the
construction
and,
lastly,
overall
erosion
and
possible
need
and
maintenance
of
the
plan
backward
backyard
wall
over
time.
A
Counselor,
you
heard
the
concern
about
the
rear
yard.
Any
comment
on
that.
BK
Yes,
madam
chair
with
the
proposed
construction,
it's
28.8
feet
away
from
the
rear
lot
line,
that
building
that
she's
referencing
is
one
building
away.
It
is
not
on
the
rear
lot
line.
It
would
be
unlikely
that
there
would
be
any
construction
debris
from
a
three-story
home
that
would
reach
30
feet
to
the
rear.
I
will
alert
my
client
and
his
contractor
to
be
complete
with
all
osha
rules
and
build
within
the
international
residential
code.

And
is,

I'm

the
applicant
is
alexander
kogan,
yes,
has
he
done
any
other
construction.

Okay,
given
that
information,
may
I
have
a
motion
please.

you.

Okay,.
A
Exactly
no,

don't

AA
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
attorney
jeff
drago,
with
drago
and
toscana,
with
an
address
of
11
beacon
street
representing
the
petitioner
joe
fagoni,
and
they
also
have
james
crystal
from
the
heart
with
us
today.
What
you're?
Just
a
point
of
clarification,
this
project,
since
we
had
deferred
last,
has
been
modified,
so
the
description
has
changed
and
the
plans
will
reflect
that
that
mr
erlick
has.
We
are
sneaking
now
to
erect
a
three-story
building
with
four
residential
units
and
four
parking
spaces.
AA
What
you're,
looking
at
in
the
front,
is
the
picture
of
the
dilapidated
garages
that
aren't
functional
now,
we're
proposing
to
replace
those
garages
and
to
erect
the
three-story
building
where
those
garages
stand.
Now,
there's
also
that
companion
case,
because
there
is
a
four
unit
building
on
that
same
law,
that's
existing.
All
of
this
would
be
proposed,
condos
and
renovated
when
completed.
A
So
so
you're
combining
the
lots.
A
Lot
and
so
176
gladstone
is
a
is
four
units.
How
many
units
I
couldn't
tell
from
the
from
google
maps.
AD
AA
So
we
have
in
the
elevations
pull
those
up.
We
have
the
front
of
the
building
would
be
on
the
gladstone
street
side
with
the
parking
you
can
see
here
in
adam
share
coming
along
the
greed
street
entrance,
so
there'd
be
a
curb
cut
with
a
breed
street
and
where
breed
street
is
now
that
would
lead
you
to
the
ground
level
that
parking
level
and
that
would
house
our
mechanical
room
and
sprinkle
a
room.
AA
The
access
to
the
building-
because
this
is
a
corner
lot
as
you
can
see-
would
be
along
the
gladstone
street
side.
So,
and
these
are
proposed
condominium
units
for
all
of
them.
A
AA
Okay,
so
that,
as
was
mentioned,
the
level
would
be
garage
or
the
basement
level
garage,
trash
room,
mechanical
room,
sprinkler,
room
access
off
of
breed
street.
As
we
go
up
to
the
first
floor,
we
would
have
unit
one
in
unit
two.
Those
are
one
bedroom,
one
bath
units
at
763
square
feet
with
rare
balcony.
AA
The
second
floor
would
house
unit
three.
That's
a
proposed
three
bed.
Two
and
a
half
bath
1800
square
foot
unit
only
floor
three
would
hose
unit
four,
that's
a
three
bedroom
two
and
a
half
bath
with
a
balconies
as
well.
You
can
go
over
the
violations.
AA
On
170,
there
are
two
buildings
on
one
lot,
as
was
mentioned,
the
use
violation.
So
this
is
a
2f
area.
We
are
proposing
four
units.
The
far,
although,
with
taking
off
that
floor,
we've
gone
down
from
2.8
we're
now
at
1.8
and
0.8
is
allowed.
AA
We
we
re,
do
we
took
away
the
height
violation
so
that
no
longer
exists
in
feet,
but
there
is
in
stories.
Two
stories
is
what's
allowed.
We're
proposing
three
our
front
yard
is,
is
one
it's
modals
on
the
corner,
but
15
would
be
required.
Side
yard
is
four
foot
four
and
three
foot
two
on
either
side.
Seven
would
be
required.
We
do
not
have
a
rear
yard
on
this,
just
because
it's
zero,
but
just
the
way
this
building
lines
up.
AA
G
A
X
During
the
community
process,
the
office
of
neighborhood
services
held
for
a
various
meeting
where
the
applicant
addressed
several
of
the
concerns
of
expressed
by

Addition
reduce

is
asking
to

that

The
bigger

Please
refresh

was
there
any
concern
about
the
size
of
the

or
anything
else.
AU
No,
no,
there
was
a
there
was.
The
only
concern
was
after
people
spoke
in
support
that
there
was
one
about
who
said
that
he
was
never
notified,
where,
in
fact,
the
co-owner
had
participated
in

number
and
size
of

hold
on
hold.

On
how
are
the
plans,
mr

plans
are
adequate?
Any
questions
from

Is
anybody
here
to
speak
in
support

this
proposal.
BQ
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board
chinese
friendship
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
we
did
hold
anna
butters
meeting
prior
to
the
pandemic
and
it
was
generally
supported
by
a
butters.
They
did,
as
mentioned,
received
the
vote
of
non-opposition
from
the
beacon
hell,
civic
association,
john,
and
I
I
believe
we
spoke
or
ken.
BQ
We
spoke
about
a
couple
of
butters
out
of
outstanding
concerns,
but
the
applicant
did,
as,
as
I
said,
speak
with
me
and
forwarded
me:
multiple
attempts
to
communicate
and
collaborate,
but
the
application
was
unable
and
successful
to
get
in
contact
with
these
veterans.
So
we
do
not
feel
that
this
should
delay
the
proposal,
as
there
is
substantial
support
on
record
at
this
time.
So
we
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
the
proposal.
Thank
you.

And
shanice
you're
comfortable,
because
this
is
not
you
know
one
of
those

those
what

calling
them,
those

neglected
by
previous
owners.
I
hired
the
firm
of
meyer
and
meyer
immediately
to
oversee
the
complete
reconstruction
of
the
building,
the
exterior
and
the
interior.
AS
AU
Existing
head
house,
okay
and
madam
sheriff,
I
may
add
the
concern
before
the
civic
association
was
trash
management
and
mr
lyons
had
proposed
in
a
letter
of
of
understanding
that
the
lease
would
contain
detailed
management
of
crash
and
would
propose
detail
management
of
civility
on
the
roof
by
the
occupant
of
the
fifth
floor
unit.
AS
That's
correct,
madam
chairwoman:
they
are
for
12-month
leases.
We
inherited
a
building
that
was
very
poorly
managed
and
fell
into
disrepair.
We're
going
to
manage
it
very
well.
We
are
going
to
have
enforceable
lease
provisions
for
the
penthouse
occupants
that
they
respect
their
neighbors
and
there
will
be
legally
enforceable
terms
that
require
them
not
to
have
noise
violations
or
interfere
with
neighbors
in
any
way,
there
was
no
roof
deck
previously.
A
Thank
you,
given
that
information,
may
I
have
a
motion
please.
