From YouTube: Boston Zoning Board of Appeal Hearings 8-19-14
Description
Zoning regulates the use and dimensional boundaries of privately owned buildings and land. The Zoning code is in place to protect the neighborhoods from the construction of buildings or structures that do not fit into the context of a neighborhood. The Zoning Board of Appeals hears appeals for varying the application of the Zoning Code and determines when it is appropriate to grant deviations from code restrictions.
A
Okay,
thanks
for
coming
this
morning,
I
think
most
of
you
know
the
process
here,
but
I
just
wanted
to
mention
a
couple
of
things.
One
of
them
is,
if
there's
conversations
in
the
back
of
the
room,
it
interferes
with
the
audio
and
the
taping
of
the
hearing.
A
So
if,
if
you
want
to
help
us
by
being
concise
and
I'll,
try
and
do
the
part
about
eliminating
repetition
and
all,
but
just
to
let
you
know,
we've
added
about
50
more
cases
to
our
workload.
So
the
day's
going
to
be
a
lot
longer,
so
we're
going
to
try
and
be
more
efficient
to
try
and
manage
that.
Okay,
mr
rajro
is
going
to
call
for
deferrals
and
withdrawals
in
a
couple
of
moments.

Doug
stephanov
at

f
street.
Thank
you
for
hearing
me
since
I've
written
the
application
we've
decided
to
stick
to
the
plan
and
I
actually
I
would
like
to
withdraw
the
request.
I
have
no
idea.
A

B
B
This
is
this
was
approved
as
a
2
family,
your
name
in
in
october,
not
on
october,
9th
2007.,
your
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please
good.
D
Oh,
no,
I'm
simply
here
to
inform
the
board
that
this
project
was
subjected
to
a
very,
very
long
land
court
case
brought
by
an
adjacent
property
owner,
and
the
case
was
recently
approved
by
the
land
court
in
favor
of
my
client
and
I'm
simply
asking
the
board
to
reaffirm
and
re-establish
the
original.
D
No
well
just
an
extension
of
the
original
variances
that
were
granted
by
the
board
back
in
2007..
That's
right!.
E
E
D
E
I
I
understand
what
you
want:
I'm
going
to
make
a
motion
to
extend
the
date,
starting
basically
at
the
settlement
date
of
the
court
case.
What
was
that.
D
I
believe
it's,
I
think
it's
in
the
letter.
It
was,
I
think,
in
may
of
june
of
this
year,
and
then
there
was
an
appeal
period
now,
which
has
been
exhausted.

I
J
Elliott
for
boston,
groundwater
trust
they
have
their
approval
from
water

and
everything
should
be
in
order.
Okay,
mostly.

south

which

atwood
square,
jamaica,
plain,
0-2130,
developer
of
the
property,
mr
chairman,
after
a
18-month
or
two-year
negotiation
working
with
the
neighborhood,
we
have
an
agreement
with
our
abutters,
but
it
requires
30
days
notice
of
any
hearing.
They've
only
had
three
weeks.
We
want
to
honor
the
agreement
we'd
like
a
little
more
time,
but
we've
continued,
so
our
office
has
been
in
touch
with
mr
small
last
week.
I
hope
you
got
the
message
anytime
first,
two
weeks
of
september
or
after
october.

no

in
brookline
on
behalf
of
the
bottom
of
the
ninth
llc
and
matthew
o'hara
they're,
the
applicant
we're
requesting
a
deferral
to
further
consult
with
the
neighborhood
to
change
the
plans.
We
didn't
have
enough
time
before
the
last
meeting
to
to
get
on
their.
This
is
important.
H
Yes,
okay,
that's.
O
G
A
That
date,
my
friend
yes,
he
did
is
every
night
okay.
So
if
anyone
came
to
hear
any
of
these
hearings
that
have
been
deferred,
there's
no
more
additional
notice,
so
you
may
want
to
if
you're
here,
for
those
two
hearings
that
were
deferred
shots
and
date
down
anyone
else
for
deferrals
or
withdrawals.
Or
are
we
all
going
forward.
B
E
This
is
a
minor
project
and
the
architect
beth
morale
has
done
a
great
job
on
drawing
nothing
to
say.
S
U
A
Good
just
to
the
elected
officials
representatives
again,
you
know
we're
going
to
try
and
manage
our
testimony
efficiently.
So
some
of
these
really
de
minimis
cases,
it's
okay
with
you.
If
there's
no
controversy,
if
there's
no,
you
could
all
respect
the
fact
that
you've
come
and
you've
contributed
to
the
process.
If
you
want
to
speak,
it's
just
fine,
but
we're
going
to
try
and
go
quickly.

The
building
code
see
what
are
these
called.
The
information
presented
is
that
this
is
a
complete
remodel
of
all
three
floors
of
an
existing
three
family
bed.
A
dwelling,
however,
the
footnote
in
the
in
the
appeal
states
that
it
has
been
indicated
to
this
office
that
this
is
a
fire
rebuild.

There
is
a
small,
far
violation
somewhat
curiously,
even
though
this
is
a
three
or
five
thousand
district,
characterized
by
triple
deckers,
as
the
board
can
see
from
the
photographic
evidence
submitted
to
the
board,
there's
a
height
limit
here
of
two
and
a
half
stories
and
35
feet.
Hence
the
two
violations
for
building
out
the
the
violation
for

height
excessive
the

insufficiency
occurs
as
the
board
looks
at

site
on
the
right
side
of
the
property.
L
The
petitioner
actually
owns
the
property
to
the
right,
so
it's
essentially
an
encroachment
onto
his
own
land,
where
he
has
a
driveway
anyway,
separating
the
proposed
building
from
the
existing
three
family,
where
the
side
yard
encroachment
occurs,
as
I
say,
otherwise,
it's
a
very
typical
three

in
field
construction

It

a

adult

It
is
not
a
daycare

it's
rather
parents

together
kind
of
for
everybody
to
learn
the

educational
uses

we'd
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
We
had
a
community
meeting
people
think
it's
a
great
use
of
the
space,
the
only
concern
being
parking
for
the
strollers,
so
as
long
as
those
aren't
on
the

blocking
space,
we're

supporting

right.

you.

B

BB
B
A
BB
No,
it's
a
large
single
family
with
for
a
bedrooms.
BB
Yes,
but
what
I
would
like
to
do
is
take
the
large
single
family
and
create
two
units,
but
there'll
be
no
change
in
the
square
footage
and
no
change
in
the
number
of
bedrooms.
The
only
thing
we're
doing
is
changing
the
interior
layout.
So
is.
H
BB
Yes,
my
son
distributed
a
over
120
leaflets
to
the
abundant
property
owners
and
had
a
meeting
on
july.
19Th
met
with
the
mudders.
No
one
expressed
any
issues
with
the
proposed
plan
and
riley
has
reached
out
personally
to
all
the
direct
abutters
and
they
all
have.
He
has
all
their
support
with
what
he
wants
to
do.
BB
No,
I
mean
you
know
it'll,
it
will
be,
you
know
there
will
be
proper,
you
know
doors
and
you
know
to
get
out
of
the
apartment.
Whatever
is
to
go
that
I
mean
in
the
plans
right.
E
The
billing
code
violations-
this
is
one
of
the
first
times
we've
seen
this
one,
which
is
section
202.,
and
it
is
a
single
unit
providing
complete
independent
living
facilities
for
one
or
more
people.
I
mean
basically
they're
adding
a
unit,
so
I
don't
understand
why
the
violation,
it's
necessarily
building
code
violations,
there's.
E
BB
I
just
also
wanted
to
say
that
the
unit
will
be
owner
occupied.
My
son
is
planning
on
living
there
and
he's
making
a
significant.
You
know
improvement
in
the
property,
nothing
you
know
just
in
the
interior,
but
nothing
besides.
I
guess
the
spiral
staircases
changing.
A
The
action
about
the
public
reaction
who
wants
to
be
heard
on
this
matter,
the
mayor's
office.
A
U
Morning,
mr
chair
members
of
the
board
eric
apprentice
mayor's
office,
neighborhood
services,
I
would
like
to
on
record
and
state
that
we
have
received
zero
community
opposition
in
this.
We
did
have
in
a
butters
meeting.
Actually,
no
one
showed
up.
There
were
people
walking
around
from
the
butting
houses
and
saw
us
they
didn't
stop
by
the
one
concern
we
would.
We
do
have
is
adding
a
unit
without
parking
in
the
south
boston
neighborhood,
which,
as
you
all
know,
it's
pretty
hot
right
now
so
other
than
that
there
has
been
no
community
opposition.
E
Okay,
mr
chairman,
if
I
may
honor
the
issue
of
the
building
code,
violation
is
still
outstanding.
This
member
doesn't
understand
quite
frankly
deciding
as
to
why
there
is
the
building
code
violation.
Therefore,
I'm
going
to
make
a
motion
to
deny
the
building
code
violation,
because
it's
not
compared
to
me
look
what
it
is
and
what
it
is
that
we're
being
asked
to.

morning,
mr

chris

on
behalf
of
city
council
president
bill
linehan,
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
on
opposition,
just
because
the
fact
that
we're
not
sure
if
the
flyering
was
really
done
for
this
project,
just
with
a
no
parking
violation
on
this,
it's
just
hard
to
believe
that
no
one
in
the
neighborhood
would
not
come
to
this
meeting.
So
we
really
just
go
record
opposition.
T
Mr
chair

At

it
had
a

became
clear
that
these

believe
that

so
my

then
agreed
to

we
removed

completely

mr

like

also
adding

during
the

process.
They
have
listened
to
the
community
with
a
they
start
off
with
a
dense
three
family
through
the
civic
association
meetings
and
the
abutters
meetings.
They
realized
that
the
community
would
be
more
open
to
a
two
families
that
they're
presenting
today.
Thank
you.
BD

Just
have
one
more
question:
it
appears
that
the
first
unit
has
an
ada
lift
to
it.
That's.
D
B
B
Yes,
it
sounds
like
the
usable
open
space
would
have
gone
down
a
little
bit
and
I
don't
know
why
off
street
parking
is
cited
as
as
access
and
maneuverability,
but
this
was
for
four
developments.
That's.

Well,
the
reason
for
the

is
to
provide
an
attic
fire
egress

dormers
from
that

L
Morning,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
george
morancy,
I'm
an
attorney
with
the
business
address
at
416,
west
broadway
in
south
boston.
Mr
chairman
members.
This
application
application
was
originally
submitted
to
restore
the
building
as
a
three-story
building
by
adding
one
floor
above
the
existing
stories
and
changing
a
ground
floor,
nail
salon
into
a
yogurt
shop,
I've
submitted
revised
plans
to
the
board.
It's
a
much
simpler
and
more
straightforward
application.
L
Now
my
client
does
not
seek
to
add
a
vertical
addition
to
the
building
does
not
seek
to
add
an
additional
dwelling
unit.
This
is
simply
an
application
to
change
the
existing
nail
salon
on
the
ground
floor
into
a
yogurt
shop
and
perform
just
some
interior
renovations
to
that
unit
to
bring
it
into
compliance
with
the
code.
L
The
lot
size
violation
has
been
eliminated
owing
to
the
elimination
of
the
proposed
additional
dwelling
unit.
The
far
violation
may
may
not
remain
just
upon
reconfiguration
of
the
first
floor
space,
but
the
building
will
not
be
expanded
outside
of
its
footprint
or
vertically.
The
useful
open
space
violation
has
been
eliminated.
L
L
Probably
not
at
this
point-
and
I
do
want
to
point
out-
because
I
know
that
one
of
the
abutters
is
here-
that
there
was
discussion
at
one
of
the
meetings
that
we
had
on
site.
The
door
to
the
yoga
shop
is
depicted
on
the
plans
as
being
on
the
left
side
next
to
the
abutters
property
that
will
not
occur
on
that
side.
We
will
make
sure
that
that's
either
in
the
middle
of
the
building
or
over
next
to
the
residential
entrance
on
the
right
side
of
the
building.
Okay,
who
wants
to
be.
Y
A
Right
we'll
make
sure
that
that's
on
the
record
and
when
they
go
for
a
takeout
license,
you'll
be
notified
or
your
father
will
be,
because
those
are
the
very
issues
that
takeout
licenses
are
supposed
to
monitor
and
address.
Okay,.
L
But
all
of
our
storage,
of
course,
will
be
handled
on
site,
not
in
the
united
states.
Probably.
A
Better
to
have
a
few
yogurt
things
than
the
nail
salon,
chemicals,
but
eric.
U
Good
morning,
mr
chair
members
of

eric
apprentice,
mayor's
office,
neighborhood
services
like
on

and
support
echoing
the
statements
of
the
director
butter,
but
we
also
feel
that
this
will
be
a
good
addition
to
broadway
a

better
than
a
vacant
storefront.
Thank
you.

Therefore,
there'd
be
no
reason
for
isd
to
know
that,
okay
and
since
once
that
had
been
done,
the
condominium
changing
it
to
a
condominium
is
simply
purely
a
real
estate
transaction.
That
is
beyond
scrutiny
of
anybody
else.
So
I
think
that
that's
probably
what
the
history
is,
and
so
this
goes
so
I
mean
here
again
where
we
are
is
we
are
legitimatizing,
something
that
was
illegally
done.

mr
chair
members

would
like

I
would
like
to
bring
up
a
concern
of
my
office
that
the
depth
of
the
basement
apartment
is
very
much
below
grade
and
that's
not
really
our
only
issue
the
the

been
an
apartment,

thank
you.

What
what

show

on

at
this

the

is
not
ready
to
support
this

All
the
questions
that
the
board
seem
to
have
with
questions
that
abutters
seem
to
have
at
the
meeting,
and
I
don't
think
there
was
any
clarification
there
to
really
get
that
support.
We
have
a
concern
of
what
this
actual
unit
will
be
in
the
basement.
The
plans
that
our
office
received
just
said
unfinished

hello,

president's
office
and
the
council
needs
needs
more
information
on
this
project.
E
I
want
to
make
a
motion
to
defer
this,
because
I
think
it
is
a
worthwhile
project,
but
there
are
two
issues
that
have
to
be
dealt
would
like
to
see
documentation
on
exactly
what
that
area
well
is
like
and
how
it
works.
If,
in
fact,
it
is
in
a
parking
zone
or
parking
length,
then
we
can't,
and
that
would
then
seriously
limit
the
use
of
that
downstairs.
Space

go

They're
intended
to
be
condominium
units
for

minimal
changes

interior
changes

some
improvements
to
the
exterior.

Very,
very
recently,

and
just
as
an
aside,
I
I
think
that
there's
a
great
deal
of
interest
in
the
community
scene
is
taken
off
of
the
rules
as
a

house
that
there
was

representing
the
proposed

owner

The
proposed
tenant
is
gelato
shop,
known
as
amarino.
I've
only
had
four
of
them
to
hand
out
that
you
get
a
sense
of
the
high
quality
product
that
they
serve.
This
is
very
very
aware,
very,
very
familiar.

This

who
would

you
worked
with
a
marino
before.
AY
Yes,
yes,
we've
been,
we've
had
a
meeting
with
the
neighborhood
association.
You
know
they've
actually
been
able
to
since
that
meeting
by
the
way,
create
an
internal
trash
storage
room
in
the
building.
The
landlord's
agreed
to
do
that.

with
that,
we
think
there's.

joining

They
are
the
proprietors
of
rogan
and
company,
which
is
a
well
respected
in
the
field
of
fine
arts.
They've
been
in
the
business
for
30
35
years,
started
out
in
the
boston
out
to
dedham,
and
now
they
want
to
come
back
to
the
city.
This
is
the
commercial
units
as
one
enters
charles
street
from
beacon
street
they've,
always
been
commercial
room
with
a
view.
BM
Was
there
previously
a
similar
antiques,
fine
arts
facility,
their
business
model
has
them
having
usually
four
auctions
a
year.
This
is
not
a
foreclosure
of
paul
saperstein
kind
of
auction,
but
for
the
sake
of
the
code,
it's
the
same
section
and
that's
why
it's
forbidden
on
charles
street,
even
though
it's
a
commercial
street
the
last
time
they
had
one
of
these
auctions
at
about
15
people,
because
a
lot
of
people
now
did
electronically.
BM
BM
The
only
request
is
a
proviso
that
would
be
limited
to
this
family
business
so
that
in
fact,
another
more
aggressive
auction
used
to
not
be
in
there
and
the
grogans
are
more
than
happy
to
do
so,
where
no
work
will
be
done,
except
they're,
going
to
fix
the
bathroom
or
something
no
exterior
work
whatsoever.

richard

1216
bennington

east

on
behalf
of
the
petitioner.
As
the
secretary
indicated,
this
is
a
proposal
to
combine
two
vacant
lots
in
the
jeffries
point
neighborhood,
which
would
contain
a
total
of
2800
square
feet.
We
would
propose
to
erect
a
three-story
three-family
dwelling
very
consistent
with
the
surrounding
uses
in
the
area.
We
did
have
an
opportunity
to
present
this
multiple
times
to
the
jeffrey's
point,
neighborhood
association.
BT
We
did
receive
an
unusual
21

nothing
unanimous
vote
from
that
organization
and
I
believe
that
the
abutters
as
well
have
supported
this
may
have
also
submitted
letters
of
support
to
the
board.
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
on
the
proposal.
All.
BT
Is
no
parking
which
makes
the
vote
of
the
jeffrey's
point
neighborhood
association
unusual,
but
I
think
the
trade-off
through
the
chair
was
whether
or
not
we
were
to
preserve
as
much
open
space
in
the
lot
or
try
to
jam
free
parking
spaces
into
the
into
the
site.
The
neighborhood
overwhelmingly
supported
keeping

gain

There
are
a
few

here

I
think
one

them
had
to
leave

go
to

they're
here

This
property
has
been

Proposing
that

it,
but
they
had
no
issue
with
it.
This
is
not
us
trying
to
increase
the
amount
of
people
that
live
in
people.
What
does
the.
E

AB

You
have
exactly
the
same
issue
as
the
previous
case
that
ceiling
heights
required
in
multi-family
dwellings
have
to
be
seven
foot
six.
If
you
don't
have
that,
you
can
achieve
it
and
you
could
dig
up
the
floor.
There
are
a
lot
of
things
that
you
could
do,
but
based
on
the
drawings
as
presented,
it
will
not
proceed.
However,
as
differentiated
from
the
previous
case,
I'm
going
to
make
a
motion
for
deferral
to
allow
you
to
come
back
with
a
proposal
in
terms
of
how
you
can
correct
that
violation.

have
so
upstairs.
We
have
dining
room,
we
have
the

it's
not
trying
to
squeeze
anybody
in
there.

Mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
alec
finale
mayor's
office,
neighborhood
services
would
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
They've
met
with
both
the
planning
committee
and
the
general
membership
of
the
columbia
savino
civic
association
received
their
approval.
Okay,.
AI
B
Just
have
a
couple
of
questions:
your
building
height
is
excessive,
and
so
is
your
far
what's
required.
What
are
you
proposing.
BZ
B
Violations
are
article
65,
section,
8,
multifamily
dwelling
use
is
forbidden,
article
65,
section,
9
lot
signs
for
the
additional
dwelling
unit
is
insufficient
front
yard,
side,
yard
and
rear
yards
all
insufficient
far.
Maximum
building
height
is
excessive
and
maximum
building
height
requirements
is
excessive.
It's
three
stories.
Maximum,
that's
allowed
your
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please.
B
The
sixth
family,
everything
this
is
washburn
right,
yeah.
AK
M
BI
BV
BI
BV
M
Okay,
with
regard
to
the
community
process,
actually
that
letter
was
sent
yesterday,
we've
had
six
community
meetings,
we've
met
with
the
the
civic
association
direct,
the
butters,
and
we
have
complete
consensus
with
the
community
on
this
on
this
project.
The
issue
with
the
civic
association
is
they
don't
meet
during
the
summer
time
and
we
could
not
have.
We
could
not
have
a
formal
vote,
but
we
had
a
final
bars
meeting
last
thursday,
where
there
was
complete
consensus
on
that
on
all
the
issues
of
the
project.
M
The
the
pictures
that
you're
looking
at
there
mr
fortune,
are
that
last
picture
is
one
product
that
was
approved
by
the
board
on
the
corner
of
boston
in
washburn
street.
It's
very
similar
in
terms
of
steel
and
density
and
so
forth.
A
Right
it
sounds,
it
sounds
fine.
The
only
problem
we
have
is
that
we're
presented,
but
if
you
went
back
to
isd
after
your
deferral
and
presented
new
plans
for
a
different
building,
basically
another
unit,
whether
it
triggered
new
violations
or
not
still
needed
public,
I
think,
if
I'm
not
correct,
correct
me,
please,
but
I
needed
new
public
advertising,
because
you're
applying
to
build
look
for
relief
for
something
different
than
the
six
family.
B
And
I
mean
your
plans
show
seven
parking
spaces.
The
quick
zone
is
this:
this
is
three
of
the
2000.
What's
the
parking
requirement.
F
M
It's
it's
1500
square
feet.
A
U
Good
afternoon
mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
our
apprentice
mayor's
office,
neighborhood
services,
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
We
are
aware
of
the
outstanding
issue
that
the
civic
association
hasn't
actually
voted
on
this
proposal.
Yet,
but
through
this
proponents
community
process,
they
have
actually.
U
Addressed
all
the
issues
that,
and
also
with
a
new
edition
today,
that
I
want
to
add
a
proviso
that
any
entrance
and
exit
through
the
property
for
the
parking
lot
would
have
to
go
back
through
btd
for
approval.
That's
one
issue:
the
community
is
a
little
concerned
with
that.
When
people
move
into
the
building,
they
can
just
kind
of
flip
it
around
and
they
worked
hard
to
get
it
from
entering
ross
and
exit
washburn.
Okay,
all
right.
CB
William
trabuco
28
roston
street
dorchester
good
afternoon,
I'm
an
immediate
butter
to
both
the
properties
that
are
going
to
be
developed
here
to
27,
washburn
and
20
russian,
I'm
the
one
who
actually
asked
for
the
first
deferment
as
part,
I'm
a
member
of
my
civic
association,
and
it
was
over
the
concerns
of
parking
and
how
the
traffic
flow
would
work.
It
wasn't
finalized
yet
and
in
writing,
which
I
you
know
I
needed
in
order
to
have
the
confirmation,
the
insurance
assurance
that
our
quality
of
life
wouldn't
be
so
detrimentally
affected
in
perpetuity.
CB
I
had
monthly
discussions
with
james
baker
and
other
co-developer
doug
george,
and
we
came
to
an
agreement
compromise
that
worked
for
myself
and
other
butters
on
roston
street.
I
believe
it
works
for
the
butters
on
washburn.
CB
Without
you
know,
naming
particular
names,
I
believe
it
does.
I
didn't
hear
any
opposition
to
it.
I
had
asked
for
actual
mechanical
controls,
for
the
traffic
will
come
in
on
washburn
and
leave
on
roston
street
card
access,
which
would
probably
cost
the
developers
several
thousands
of
dollars
additional
to
put
in
place,
and
I
got
that
I
got
that
assurance
in
writing
and
that
assuaded
all
my
fears
and
concerns
about
the
parking
so
in
a
nutshell,
as
an
immediate
abutter
within
30
40
feet
of
the
development.
I
fully
support
it
all
right.
CC
Hi,
my
name
is
desmond
rowan.
I
am
an
executive
board
member
for
the
mccormick
civic
group,
where
this
development
lies
in
its
boundaries.
I
live
on
eight
howell
street,
so
I
just
wanted
to
reiterate,
though
I
commend
james
for
his
community
process,
having
met
with
the
community
five
times,
I
want
to
reiterate
that
at
the
june
meeting
he
the
plans
were
not
prepared
well,
and
there
was
a
deferral
made
and
we
owe
it
to
our
membership
in
the
residence
of
north
dorchester
to
have
a
formal
vote
on
this
proposal.
CC
CC
So
we
think
that
they
are
very
dependent
on
each
other
since
the
since
they
will
be
easements
from
parking
and
so
forth,
and
so
that
was
the
justice
of
the
deferral
back
in
june,
and
we
we
owe
it
again
to
our
membership,
to
have
them
come
back
in
september
and
get
a
formal
vote.
Thank
you.

our

neighborhood

like
on
record
support.
This
project
has
been
through
an
extensive
community
process
and
actually
was
held
up
in
the
bra
for
a
month
or
two.
While
we
worked
over
the
finer
points
and
one
of
those
finer
points
was
widening,
the
sidewalks
to
eight
feet,
a
good
public
amenity
for
the
residents
of

Thank
you
good.

I'm
representing

to

michael
and
billy,
and
desano
they're,
requesting
a
deferral
they
attempted
to
meet
with
the
developer.
They've
been
immediate
about
it
for
16
years
and
they
did
just
get
plans
a
few
days
ago.
But
there
are
some
issues
outstanding
issues
that
they
would
like
an
opportunity
to
iron
out,
and
originally
they
thought
that
this
hearing
was
going
to
be
in
october
and
they're,
asking
for
a
deferral
till
october.

Mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board
we
reached
out
to
the
abutters
architect
on
two
occasions,
sending
them
drawings,
never
heard
a
response
back.
My
clients
have
had
the
communication
lines
open,
we're.
B
I
have
a
question
looking
at
your
handout,
what
can
you
tell
us
just
what
the
unit
sizes
are,
what
the
bedroom
is,
what
the
bedroom
count
is,
and
I
noticed
that
you
say
you're
providing
three
affordable
units.
Are
they
all
the
the
469
square
foot
studio.
BC

The
studios
are
around
500
plus
or
minus

8.50
the
two

the
three

A
Okay,
any
other
questions,
mr
brown.
BV
Hi
dartanian
brown
architect
for
33a
street
tim.
We
did
receive
your
drawings.
Our
clients
have
tried
to
set
up
meetings
so
that
we
could
have
a
design
session
together
to
allow
us
to
work
through
some
of
the
nuances
of
having
two
tall
buildings
next
to
each
other,
namely
set
about
location
of
foundations.
How
that's
coordinated!
There's
numerous
windows
along
the
party
wall-
that's
adjacent
to
our
building
that
we'd
like
the
opportunity
to
sit
down
and
figure
out
how
those
layout
with
their
units
versus
our
units,
which
we
have
not
been
afforded
that.
AD
A
The
bra
to
you
know
when
there's
contiguous
or
adjacent
properties
or
a
large
scale
development
involving
a
few
big
buildings.
We
would
love
them
to
look
at
it
as
a
large
package
so
that
we
don't
do
things
piecemeal,
but
that's
not
where
we're
at
today
and
we've
already
heard
the
merits.
You've
already
been
referred
once
you
know,
I
can't
see
how
we
can
delay
this
because
out
of
a
good
community
building
process
that
possibly
should
have
been
a
more
comprehensive
review,
but
that's
too
late
we're
here
well.
BC
AJ
A
U
How
you
doing
eric
apprentice
mayor's
officer,
can
I
request
a
deferral
for
this
this
case,
if
you
remember
from
a
few
months
back
the
only
reason
it
got
deferred
in
the
first
place,
because
there
was
a
language
in
the
refusal
letter,
and
my
concern
is
that
the
proponent
might
have
lost
his
way.
If
you
will,
it
was
pretty
much
a
no-brainer.
I
just
kind
of
want
to
would
like
to
follow
up
with
them
and
maybe
give
them
a
little
more
time.

The
they
purchased
the
property
at
the
end
of
2013.
I
think,
knowing
that
the
property
was
in
rough
shape,
it's
going
to
be
a
complete
rehab
at
the
building
is,
what's
intended.
All
of
these
matters,
including
the
sprinkling
of
the
building,
everything
will
be
brought
up
to
code
at
the
time
that
works
done.
E
BI
CE
Mr
chairman,
there's
gonna
be
a
slight
change
to
the
based
on
what
we
heard
for
the
neighborhood.
When
this
initial
application
was
made,
it
was
going
to
be
four
or
five
units,
there's
actually
going
to
be
four
residential
units
as
a
result
of
the
extensive
meetings
that
we
had
the
building
will.
Actually,
this
is
a
good
representation.
AB
CE
G
CE
I
CE
It's
actually
a
retail,
it's
not
retail.
It's
an
office
space
for
for
jim's,
father's
construction
company,
that's
where
his
office
will
be
owner-occupied.
Okay,.
AF
G
J
We'll
have
for
boston,
groundwater,
trust
speaking
strictly
on
groundwater
issues.
We
don't
have
a
letter
from
water
and
sewer.
I
do
have
a
report
that
an
engineer
put
together
for
them.
It
lays
out
a
recharge
system
that
is,
is
undimensioned
and
unclear
that
it
meets
the
the
code.
Requirements
does
note
that
the
building
is
probably
going
to
require
underpinning
because
it
has
deteriorated
wood
pilings.
So
obviously
this
is
important
issue
for
them
to
begin
with,
but
we
don't
have
the
information
yet
to
to
go
when
they
commit
to
doing
it.
J
But
there's
there's
no
information
that
lets
us
know
that
they
are
for
sure
going
to
meet
the
requirement.
BN
Good
afternoon,
mr

members

denny
chain
mayor's

we'd
like
to
go
on

support.

the
proposed
application

A
Good,
who
else
wants
me
who
else
came
to

on
this
matter?
I'm
gonna
ask
this
question
before
you
get
started.
Who
else
came
to
speak
on
this
matter?
Just
you
just
yeah.
It
doesn't
matter
which
mic
you
take
so
you're
the
only
person
who's
giving
testimony
on
this
right.

CF
Hi
good
afternoon,
my
name
is
karen:
chen,
I'm
with
the
chinese
progressive
association,
we're
a
community
based
organization
in
chinatown,
and
we
have
been
seeing
alarming
number
of
eviction
cases
in
chinatown
and
displacement.
We
are
actually
really
concerned
about
the
issue
of
affordability
in
chinatown.
We
were
here
on
july
22nd
because
at
that
time
the
remaining
family
with
the
disabled
father.
I
was
still
living
in
that
part
in
that
building.
Fortunately,
they
were
able
to
find
suitable
housing.
CF
They
moved
out
in
the
beginning
of
august,
but
actually
this
building
prior
to
the
current
ownership
and
the
request
for
zoning
change.
It
was
occupied
by
low-income
families
and
we
asked
that
the
owners
would
keep
one
of
the
units
affordable
to
low-income
families,
and
we
know
that
other
cities
like
new
york,
they
have
policy
known
as
inclusionary
preservation
in
which
city
governments,
secure
d,
restricted,
affordable
units
when
private
properties
undergo
veneration
or
change
hands.
With
zoning.
You
know
approval
of
property
tax
abandon
as
a
tool
to
secure
an
agreement.
CF
So
we
also
have
a
letter
from
the
master
plan,
implementation
committee
and
also

Good
afternoon
my

lillian
chin,
I'm
one
of
three

for
the
building
on
the
next
door
that
211
harrison
avenue
which
goes
around
the
corner
to
3941
oak
street.
Now
we
had
concerns
about
raising
the
chimney
and
how
it
affects
the
roof
of
the
39
store,
and
we
also
had
concerns
about
the
second
egress
on
the
fire
escapes.
CI
I
am
dorothy
pond.
I
am
one
of
the
trustees
of
211
harrison
which
abuts
213,
and
I
just
want
to
be
reassured
that
when
the
two
walls
are
butted
together
that
ice
and
thawing
and
and
freezing
in
the
wintertime,
how
will
we
I
want
to
be
reassured
that
that
will
be
prevented.

With
bra
design
review
and
no
building
no
code
relief,
even
though
we've
denied
it
just
so
that
you
know
that
there
will
be
no
code
related,
okay
and
those
address.
The
violations
that
have
been
identified
by

code.

Mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
this
proposal,
as
stated,
is
to
raise
the
existing
structure
that
is
on
the
site
and
replace
it.
The
original
application
was
for
18
units
as
a
result
of
extensive
neighborhood
input
into
this
project.
We
have
reduced
the
number
of
units
from
18
to
15..
AJ
AJ
Our
proposal,
as
amended,
is
to
provide
15
residential
units
with
33
parking
spaces
and
two
affordable
units.
As
I
said,
this
has
gone
through
a
very
extensive
neighborhood
process
and.
B
Daniel
right
there,
so
that
removes
your
parking
violation.
Does
your
far
building
height
change
and
I'm
assuming
your
rear
yard
will
still
stay
the
same
so.
AJ
Yes,
the
building
height
our
proposed
building
is
lower
than
the
existing
building
now,
but
we
still
exceed
the
35
feet
in
the
code
and
the
far
has
been
reduced
from
our
original
proposal
from
the
existing
building
is
2.44.

Questions
from

Good
afternoon,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board
tom
mckay
mayor's
office,
neighborhood
services,
as
a
proponent,
mentioned
they've,
been
through
an
extensive
community
process.
With
this
project,
they've
worked
with
the
neighbors
to
address
all
the
issues
that
came
up
at
the
last
community
meeting
that
we
had
when
they
presented
their
proposal
to
add
additional
parking.
That
brings
it
up
to
33..
There
was
a
general
consensus
that
people
could
support
that.
So
mayors
also
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
support.

We
need
more

Good
morning,
sir
good
afternoon
share
members
of
the
board
chris
ross
from
the
mayor's
office
neighborhood
services,
I'd
like
to
go
on
record
of
opposition.
Many
of
the
neighbors
are
opposed
due
to
the
small
size,
a
lot
and
tight
parking
on
the
street.
They
think
it's
a
hazard,
it's
a
tight
turn
for
a
fire
truck
to
make
already
so
opposition.
Thank
you
all
right.
Thank
you.
AS
Mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board
bill
mcgregor
with
city
council,
matt
o'malley,
the
council
would
also
like
to
go
and
reckon
in
opposition.
They
had.
They
did
go
in
front
of
west
roxary
zoning
and
they
were
denied
as
well.
There
and
many
of
the
neighbors
have
reached
out
to
us
in
opposition
as
well.
AH
T
Mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
paul
sullivan,
got
the
city
council
michael
flaherty,
just
due
to
the
community
opposition.
The
council
at
this
time
is
in
opposition.
AT
CK
I'm
in
a
butter
and
I'm
in
opposition,
the
lot
is
only
4
200
square
feet.
West
rock's
re-zoning
board
requires
6
000
square
feet,
there's
also
an
underground
stream.
At
the
back
of
the
property,
there's
no
parking,
we
can't
get
fire
trucks
in
the
street,
they've
had
to
park
on
the
end
street
and
walk
in
when
we've
had
problems
on
occasion
and,
quite
frankly,
it's
a
nice
little
piece
of
green
space.
CK
A
May
we
have
your
name,
I'm
glad
it
helps
the
neighborhood
breathe.
Who
else
wants
to
be
heard
on
this?
Anyone
else
all
right
come
forward
your
name
and
address.
Please.
BI
My
name
is
robert
starlive
at
10
chapin
avenue
in
west
roxbury.
I
live
in
the
neighborhood.
As
you
know,
article
56
promotes
things,
promotes
the
preservation
and
maintenance
and
the
creation
of
open
spaces.
Essentially
we
have
open
spaces
here
they
seek
to
close
off
and
prevent
access
to
from
animals.
I
understand
there
was
some
some
rabbits
and
some
animals
that
were
there,
some
turkeys
once
in
a
while
we're
trying
to
protect
the
environment
and
clearly.
A
A
B
Just
a
question
for
the
applicant:
this
is
a
pre-existing
lot
right.
That's.
AK
BE
Name
is
marion
o'brien
and
I'm
a
director
of
butter
to
the
property
in
question,
and
I
feel
that
you
know
a
lot
of
years
to
get
the
zoning
law
into
place
and
I
think
that
what's
being
proposed
is
it's
just
completely
opposite
of
what
the
zoning
laws
required.
A
P
My
name
is
dennis
sullivan.
I
live
at
11
libby
street
right
across
the
street
from
the
lot
I'm
opposed
strongly
opposed.
This
has
already
been
denied
twice
in
the
past
10
years.
It's
2
000
feet
too
small.
Our
street
is
extremely
crowded,
very
densely
populated
and
fire
engines
can't
make
it
down
the
street.
Now
we
had
an
incident
with
my
daughter,
we
had
to
call
she
had
an
anaphylactic
reaction
to
a
cashew
fire
engines
can't
make
it
around
the
corner
with
all
the
cars
on
the
corners.
AV
A
Right,
gentlemen,
do
you
have.
Q
Q
The
dimensions
of
the
lot
that,
as
it
currently
stands,
have
not
changed
the
the
lot
upon
which
we
seek
to
develop
and
build
the
single-family
home,
as
you
can
see,
by
the
the
rendering,
as
well
as
the
plans,
it's
a
modest-sized
single-family
home,
the
home
would
comply
with
all
setbacks,
relative
to
side,
yards
yard,
front
yard
and
as
well
as
the
rear
yard.
Q
In
fact,
the
lot
is
larger
than
many
of
the
lots
in
the
neighborhood
as
it
exists,
and
the
relief
that
we
seek
from
the
board
in
is
such
that
it
is
the
absolute
minimum
that
the
board
could
grant
in
order
for
the
lot
to
be
used
for
its
intended
purpose.
And
again,
if
you
take
a
look
at
the
plan
which
was
provided,
it's
entitled
plan
of
house
lots.
Q
So
this
is
a
lot
which
was
intended
to
be
used
for
a
single
family
home,
it's
zoned
in
a
single
family
residence
and
that's
exactly
what
we're
looking
to
put
in
the
house.
It
already
did
change,
though
so
and
that's
correct,
and
what
we
would
we
would
suggest
is
the
relief
sought
is
the
bare
minimum
to
use
the
lot
as
the
lot
would
be
intended
to
be
used.
Q
Correct
mob
street
parking
will
be
provided.
There
is
a
garage
as
well
as
a
driveway
in
at
the
property
and
again
it
all
complies
with
all
required
setbacks.
So
it's
for
that
reason.
I
know
I
understand
the
concerns
of
many
of
the
butters
in
the
in
the
neighbors.
Q
However,
the
parking
issue
would
be
taken
care
of
pursuant
to
the
plans,
and
I
think,
if
you
take
a
look
at
the
plans
as
well
as
the
rendering
it's
the
house
is
the
same
relatively
the
same
size,
shape
and
height
as
many
of
the
homes
in
the
neighborhood.
It
would
certainly
conform
with
the
character
of
the
neighborhood,
and
I
think
it's
the
work
of
mr
roach,
the
my
architect
who's
here
with
me
today.
Q
I
think
he
did
a
great
job
in
drawing
up
and
planning
a
home
that
would
really
fit
into
the
neighborhood
and
would
really
promote
the
the
objectives
and
the
purposes
of
the
west
roxbury
zoning
code,
that
being
being
able
to
provide
housing.
Q
That
is,
it
is
not
overly
dense
and
it
would
in
an
area
that
could
certainly
accommodate
it
and
again,
due
to
the
setbacks,
we
believe
certainly
could
accommodate
that
the
off-street
parking
would
alleviate
any
of
the
concerns
you've
heard
about
the
turn
radius
and
again,
that's
the
reasons
why
the
project
has
been
developed
and
proposed
the
way
that
it
has
all
right.
Q
G
CL
I'm
gonna
address
them.
Yes,
I
missed
the
fortune.
CL
There
are
many
non-conforming
loose
many
non-conforming
uses
on
the
street
where
that
don't
conform
to
current
zoning,
and
we
worked.
I
worked
very
hard
with
the
building
department
to
to
take
a
look
at
how
how
to
work
with
with
what
we
had
is
a
very
narrow
law.
CL
There's
a
there's,
a
hardship
associated
with
that,
and
I
would
suggest
that
the
the
building
that
that
we're
proposing
to
put
up
is
is
very
similar
in
many
ways
in
terms
of
scale
in
terms
of
density,
and
certainly
it
meets
every
requirement
of
the
but
four
of
the
of
the
zoning
code,
but
for
the
fact
that
it
was
an
existing
non-conforming
use
that
that
again,
this
particular
lot
was
a
little
bit
narrow
and
we
worked
very
very
hard
with
the
building
department
to
to
come
up
with
what
we
did.
A
E
Chairman,
I'm
prepared
to
make
a
motion
to
grant
the
relief
request.
The
relief
being
requested
is
absolutely
no.
It
conforms
to
the
dimensional
setbacks
that
are
required
and.
P
P
Record
earlier
I
I
know,
but
I
just
want
to
make
you
kind
of
cut
me
off.
You
understand.
It's
been
denied
twice
yeah.
Well,
we're
we're
voting
again.
Now:
okay
and
the
wrnc
okay,
they
they
they
denied
it.
It's
a
third,
too
small,
a
third
too
small,
not
hundred
feet
too
small,
two
thousand
feet:
that's
arms!
All
right!.
E
Thank
you,
my
my
motion
stands
with
bra
designer.
A
B
Z
Z
The
house
was
supposed
to
be
built
10
feet
from
the
left
lot
line
and
it
was
built
10
feet
from
the
left
lot
line.
Unfortunately,
the
neighbor's
house
encroaches
a
foot
over
the
lot
and
my
client
should
have
realized
that
and
should
have
moved
the
house
over
a
foot
further,
so
he
would
be
10
feet
from
the
neighbor's
house.
He
is
10
feet
from
the
lot
line,
which
is
what
the
code
calls
for,
but
he's
not
10
feet
from
the
neighbor's
house,
which
is
encroaching
onto
his
land.
Z
It
was
an
honest
mistake
because
he
had
the
extra
room
on
the
other
side.
He
could
have
moved
the
house
over.
He
needs
10
feet
on
the
on
the
right
side
of
the
house
and
he
has
12
7..
So
the
error
was
just
not
noted.
There
was
a
long
time
during
the
development
process.
The
surveyor
had
originally
gone
out
and
noted.
The
house
was
over
the
lot
line,
but
then,
when
it
came
time
to
cite
the
house
he
had
just
forgotten
about,
but
it.
Z
Yes,
but
the
way
the
building
inspector
interprets
it
he
thinks
we
have
to
be
10
feet
from
the
house
next
door.
There's
a
footnote
in
the
code.
That's
a
little
bit
ambiguous
as
to
exactly
what
you're
supposed
to
do.
The
footnote
actually
says
you
have
to
be
10
feet
from
the
neighbor's
house
on
their
lot.
But
if
the
neighbor's
house
is
on
your
lot,
you
still
have
to
be
10
feet
from
the
neighbor's
house,
because
it's
open
to
a
question.
Z
The
plans
examiner
rightfully
sent
it
to
you,
because
this
is
the
process
that
we
have
to
go
through
to
solve
the
problem
we,
the
plains
examiner,
might
have
been
able
to
on
his
own
say
it's
okay,
but
let's
get
it
right.
Let's
come
here,
yeah!
No,
let's
get
it
right
so
that
future
owners
don't
have
problems.
A
mistake
was
made
between
the
survey
or
miscommunication
and
the
builder
and,
and
unfortunately
it
happens
now,
the
good
parts
of
this.
Z
The
house
next
door
is
brick
so
for
fire
resistance,
there's
a
solid
brick
house
next
to
it,
and
the
neighbor,
who
is
the
one
that's
encroaching
and
is
the
one
whose
house
is
within
the
10
feet,
is
in
support
of
of
this
additional
request
here
at
the
board.
B
E
CM
CN
Why
why
are
you
here?
Because
he
has
a
violation
for
the
violations

what
enclosing

porch
okay.
V
Good
afternoon,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
david
mcnulty,
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
the
issue
the
mayor's
office
has
is
with
this
enclosure.
Is
that
the
the
porsche
whether
the
porch
was
there
when
he
bought
it
or
not,
shouldn't
be
there
shouldn't
be
used
as
living
space?
We
were
the
ones
that
called
isd
initially
on
behest
of
the
neighbors.
Our
issue
is
that
it's
a
undersized
lot
granted
in
the
neighborhood
is
full
of
undersized
lots,
but
this
is
living.
Pushing
living
space
onto
the
property
line
is
exacerbating
a
party
tough
situation.

None
of
that
none
of
the
homes
on
the
street
meet
the
alignment,
none
of
them
meet
the
setback
requirement,
and
what
I'm
proposing
is
that
I
demolish
the
garage
in
the
rear,
the
rear,
porch
and
and
replace
it
at
the
exact
same
setback
that
currently
exists
all
of
the
homes
in
the
street.
The
garages
are
to
the
side
of
the
house
and
they
all
sit
just
just
in
front
of
the
house
itself.
R
So
what
I'm
proposing
to
do
is
is
completely
in
in
tune
with
the
rest
of
the
neighborhood
and
in
fact
you
probably
won't
even
notice.
It's
been
done
all.

to
present

L
Afternoon,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
george
marantz,
I'm
an
attorney
with
the
business
address,
416
west
broadway
in
south
boston,
I'm
joined
with
my
client
property
owner,
ariane
carbonaro,
mr
chairman,
I
did
make
a
present
submission
to
the
board.
I
think
the
two
pictures
the
before
and
after
picture
speak
for
themselves
the
amount
of
work
that
my
client
has
done
to
rehabilitate
this
property.
There's
no
change
in
occupancy
proposed
here.
It
is
a
three
family
leaving
three
families
to
remain
a
three
family.
L
There
are
three
off
street
parking
spaces.
The
purpose
of
the
application
is
to
essentially
replace
three
dilapidated
dormers
at
the
attic
level,
with
a
shed
dormer
and
to
expand
living
space
additional
living
space
into
the
attic
area.
Approximately
860
square
feet
also
to
extend
living
space
into
the
basement
694
square
feet,
which
would
enable
this
to
become
a
a
building
with
a
two
bedroom.
First
floor
basement
unit,
a
two
bedroom
second
floor
unit
and
then
a
three
bedroom
unit
at
the
third
and
attic
levels.
The
floor
area
ratio
is
already
non-conforming.
L
It
would
rise
slightly
to
an
far
2.02
there's,
a
height
violation
cited
in
the
refusal
letter,
but
the
height
of
the
building
is
actually
not
being
changed.
The
violation
goes
to
the
fact
that
the
shed
dormer
is
being
added
to
the
right
side
of
the
roof.
The
right,
the
insufficient
side,
yard
violation
also
arises
from
the
addition
of
the
shed
dormer.
The
building
is
fact
in
fact
it's
not
being
expanded
so
as
to
increase
the
pre-existing
right
side
yard
insufficiency.
L
A
Okay,
this
is
good.
Is
there
a
driveway.
L
A
driveway
on
the
left
side,
an
existing
common
driveway,
leading
to
three
parking
spaces
at
the
rear.
AV
Yeah,
it's
it's.
L
Pre-Existing,
mr
ehrlich,
it's
nine
feet.
10
feet
is
is
required
by
code,
but
it
is
in
fact
an
existing
shared
driveway
between
that
and
the
above
property
to
the
left,
so
the
house
to
the
left.
L
G
L
As
you're
looking
at
the
house
on
the
left,
there's
a
driveway
there's,
a
nine
foot,
driveway
four
and
a
half
feet
of
that
driveway
is
on
the
51
bale
street
property.
The
other
four
and
a
half
feet
is
on
the
property
to
the
left.
It
is,
in
fact,
a
shared
driveway.

BL
Good
afternoon,
mr
chairman
and
members
of
the
board
darren
baird
with
ghoulston
in
stores,
I
am
counsel
to
dudley.
Neighbors
incorporated
the
owner
of
the
property
with
me
today
is
eliza
perad
from
dudley,
dudley,
neighbors
incorporated
as
well
as
antoinette
barrows,
who
is
the
operator
of
the
floral
shop
in
question.
On
the
first
floor,.
B
BL
It's
it's
a
retail
use,
but
the
property
falls
just
outside
of
the
dudley
triangle,
121a
area
and
is
in
the
three
f
4000
district
and
as
a
result,
local
retail
use
is
forbidden
in
that
district.
And
so
historically
you
have
a
building.
That
was
a
two
and
a
half
story,
residential
building
that
up
until
1986
was
used
as
a
two
family,
and
then
an
86
was
converted
to
general
office.
BL
Use
has
had
a
number
of
office
users,
including
the
dudley
square,
neighborhood
initiative
and
dudley
neighbors
incorporated
who
also
have
an
office
building
adjacent
to
that
at
504,
dudley
street
separated
just
by
a
parking
lot
from
this
building.
This
is
a
separate
group.
Yes,
well,
dsni
and
dni
are,
I
guess
they
are.
They
are
separate,
just
curious,
they're
separate,
but
they're
yet
affiliated,
so
that
makes.
B
Sense,
so
so
what
is
so?
It
seems
fairly
simple,
so
it's
an
office
and
that
it's
generally
a
commercial
zone
on
the
edge
of
the
commercial
zone
correct.
So
it
sounds
like
the
only
issue
is
your
parking
requirements?
BL
So
there
is
on
the
site,
the
the
lot
is
sort
of
a.
I
guess,
a
double
lot.
The
house,
the
the
structure,
is
located
on
the
northerly
side
of
the
lot
and
on
the
southerly
side
of
the
lot,
there
is
room
for
a
pretty
wide
area
for
at
least
tandem
parking
for
at
least
two
vehicles,
and
that's
how
historically,
that
area
of
the
site
has
been
used.
There
is
also
on-street
non-metered
parking
in
front
of
the
building.
BL
You
know,
historically,
with
the
office
use,
it's
required
three
spaces.
It
would,
with
this
first
floor
thousand
feet
of
retail
use,
it
would
ratchet
up
to
four
spaces.
We
think
that,
from
the
standpoint
of
impact,
the
majority
of
the
business
that
happens
here
is
delivery,
so
there
are
not
a
lot
of
people
coming
and
going
from
the
retail
establishment,
so
we
don't
think
it's
going
to
create
a
burden
to
get
a
variance
of
one
space
from
the
code.
You
know
and
sort
of
continue
parking.
The
way
we've
been
doing
it
as
a
pre-existing
non-conformity.
AU
If
the
bottom
floor
is
now
going
to
be
a
retail
space,
what
what's
going
to
happen
with
signage
and
how
is
that
going
to
change
the
character
of
the
house.
BL
Well,
there
is
so
you
know
the
history
of
this
particular
use.
Is
it
started
about
four
years
ago?
BL
I
think
that
everybody
at
dni,
when
the
use
started
just
assumed
this
was
in
the
triangle
and
therefore
commercial
use
was
permitted,
and
so
there
is
some
pretty
low
profile
signage.
That's
already
on
the
building,
says
gisele's
floral
shop.
If
you
are
looking
at
it
on
google
earth,
you
can
see
it.
It's.
BL
H
AQ
Good
afternoon,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
kyra
fox
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
would
like
to
go
on
record
of
support.
We
have
received
a
petition
from
all
the
local
butters
near
this
flower
shop
and
since
it
has
been
operating
existing
as
a
flower
shop,
it
has
been
a
benefit
to
the
community.
B
Okay
for
approval
with
vra
design
review
just
for
sign
up.
Second.
AG
Exactly
all
right,
all
right
and
and
if
you
want
just
another
caveat,
because
the
building
sets
back
off
the
street
I'd
be
curious
to
know.
If
you
have
plans
to
do
to
the
sidewalk.
Do
any
design
changes
to
the
area
that
of
the
setback?
BL
There
is-
and
I
think
presently
the
answer
is
you
know
there
is
some
modest
landscaping
there
and
I
don't
think
they
have
any
immediate
plans
to
do
any
renovations
to
the
front
of
the
building.
You
know
obviously
we'll
have
to
deal
with
the
bra
on
signage
design
review,
but
I
don't
think
they
plan
on
sort
of
materially
changing
the
front
yard,
or
at
least
it
hasn't
been
mentioned
to
me
that
they
are.
B
B
B
C
My
name
is
doug
stefanov
93f
street
and
with
me,
is
dave,
gambon,
owner
and
developer
of
this
project.
I
come
in
about
building
code,
okay,
sure
regarding
the
building
code.
If
I
could
address
the
mechanical
room,
we'll
create
a
2r
rated
assembly
for
the
common
mechanical
room
in
the
basement.
C
There's
a
common
mechanical
room
at
the
base
of
the
stairs
right,
so
we'll
encase
that
create
a
2r
rated
assembly
around
the
room.
So
that's
simple
and
the
second
violation
I
have
a
existing
seven
foot,
six
condition
unfinished
so
between
slab
and
bottom
of
my
floor.
Rafters
is
this
as
a
three
family
should
be
seven
to
six
clear,
I'm
asking
for
an
inch
and
a
half
of
relief
to
finish
the
basement.
C
I
mean
that
would
be
a
lot
of
work.
Yeah
cut
the
rafters
well
I'll
just
say:
I
did
recently
go
to
the
board
of
building
regulations,
standards
for
another
project.
I
had
up
on
mission
hill
and
they
did
grant
me
an
inch
of
relief.
E
E
C
So
the
owner
would
like
to
add
square
footage
to
the
first
floor
unit
by
finishing
the
basement.
C
A
combination
of
bedrooms
and
bathroom
common,
it's
common
space,
the
the
grade
drops
great.
It's
a
walk
out
in
the
back
windows
are
ample
on
the
sides.
It
has
a
nice
exposure.
