From YouTube: Zoning Board of Appeal Hearings 6-27-23 (Part 2 of 2)
Description
Part 1: https://youtu.be/tGnJTvpOy9M
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 Appeal hears appeals for varying the application of the Zoning Code and determines when it is appropriate to grant deviations from code restrictions.

C
The
beginning
I'm,
turning
over
the
reins
to
Gene
panado
to
chair,
thank
you
Gene,
so
Mr
Stembridge.
C
Okay,
I,
don't
think
he's
come
back,
but
with
that
I'll
turn
it
over
to
Ms
canado.
Thank
you
all.
E
G
I
am
present
good
afternoon
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board.
This
is
Sam
Johnson,
presenting
on
behalf
of
the
10
Salem
Street
Ave.
That's
in
Charlestown
we're
looking
for
Relief
on
two
sections
of
the
zoning
code.
Refusal
I
have
the
refusal
letter
here.
If
you
would
like
to
see
it,
if
not,
we
can
jump
into
the
plants.
E
G
Ma'am,
so
the
plans
would
be
a
second
floor
of
roof
deck
I
own
the
second
unit
condo
at
10,
Salem,
Street
Ave.
There
is
an
existing
third
floor.
It's
a
two
and
a
half
story:
wood
frame,
it's
an
existing
Dormer
and
doorway
out
to
a
flat
rubber
roof
behind
my
family
and
I
are
looking
to
put
on
a
roof
deck
on
that
rubber
roof
with
the
existing
door
there.
G
These
pictures
show
front
view
and
rear
view
and
side
view
of
the
house
the
deck
the
goal
of
this
project
is
for
the
technology
get
too
close
to
anybody's
windows
or
any
of
the
neighbors,
so
we'd
keep
it
in
close
to
the
building.
The
level
will
be
lower
than
the
roof
itself
facing
the
street,
so
the
secondary
goal
is
to
keep
the
deck
out
of
view
of
the
street
as
well.
G
Next
slide.
That
is
a
picture
of
the
house
without
the
image
of
the
deck
on
it
as
well,
and
those
are
the
plans.
Those
are
interior
plans
on
this
page
here,
and
that
would
be
the
extent
of
my
presentation
sending
any
questions
from
the
board.
I
J
K
L
E
All
right
we
will
move
on
so
I.
Think
we've
heard
public
comments,
I'll
entertain
a
motion.
F
E
All
right
roll
call
vote,
Miss
dong,
yes,
Mr
Stembridge,.
F
N
O
P
F
If
you
don't
mind,
we'll
I'll
jump
ahead
to
the
hearings
from
1pm
to
ask
if
there
are
any
requested
withdrawals
or
deferrals
from
the
1
1
pm
cases.
Q
Q
I
believe
you
had
August
States
available
I.
Think
your
second
meeting
in
August,
possibly
yeah,.
F
E
Great
Miss
Dom,
yes,
Mr
stanbridge.
F
S
F
Case
was
approved
would
be
beaten,
advisor,
VPD
design
with
you.
Next
we
have
case
VOA
one
two,
one,
five,
five,
five,
three
two
the
address
would
be
52
to
532
Commonwealth
Avenue,
that
that
was
true.
F
F
F
E
T
F
F
Move
on
to
the
discussions
for
11,
scheduled
for
11,
30
A.M
rest
will
be
case.
Boa
1-144-8512.
U
All
right,
thank
you.
Can
you?
Can
you
hear
me?
Okay,
yes,
okay!
Fine!
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I
am
representing
my
name,
is
Richard
Vulcan
from
RAV
and
Associates
21
Highland
Avenue
in
Needham
Massachusetts,
representing
Joseph
steridi,
39,
Vernon
Street
in
Hyde
Park,
just
to
some
background
on
this
in
this
area,
the
Vernon
Street
in
the
small
streets
surrounding
it,
our
considered
private
ways.
U
U
The
concern
is
the
side
yard.
The
front
yard
distances,
but
Mr
when
we
propose
we
would
like
to
do,
is
to
replace
the
existing
deck.
It's
a
slightly
raised
deck
to
a
three-season,
headed
to
the
next
slide
three
season
structure
and
to
behind
it
to
put
a
flag
stones
on
grade
walkout
area.
U
They
seemed
again
to
seek
the
relief
and
I
think.
That's
really
covers
all
the
issues.
U
Okay,
existing
condition
is
from
the
property
line,
it's
of
one
and
a
half
feet
to
the
deck
and,
from
the
from
this
front,
the
sidewalk
it's
23
feet,
9
inches
back
to
the
face
of
the
house.
These
proposed
three
three
season
structures
is
intended
to
be
the
same
to
the
face
of
the
existing
house.
B
The
new
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board-
this
is
Danielle
Fonseca,
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services,
the
applicant
for
39
Vernon
Street
did
complete
the
community
process
and
they
notified
all
the
butters
of
their
proposal
on
April
18th.
They
received
eight
signatures
of
support
from
Neighbors
that
were
sent
to
the
board
for
review,
and
our
office
also
received
an
additional
letter
of
support
that
was
sent
to
the
board
for
review.
At
this
time.
We
wish
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
F
F
F
V
E
V
You
thank
you
so
by
way
of
introduction,
I
am
here
with
Rabbi
sarchi,
who
is
the
proponent
of
the
non-profit,
Chabad
Community
Center,
which
is
being
proposed
by
this
application
that
the
combined
property
of
1615
and
16
17
Tremont
Street
next
slide
just
to
inform
a
little
bit.
The
purpose
of
a
Chabad,
distinct
use,
religious
based,
cultural,
educational
and
faith-based
Center.
V
Next
slide,
please
so
just
to
bring
you
into
the
site
itself,
which
you'll
see
marked
and
shaded
here
just
outside
of
in
the
very
vibrant
busy
Brigham
circle
area
of
Mission
Hill
within
steps
of
the
public
transportation
node
at
the
intersection
of
Tremont,
Street
and
Wigglesworth
is
at
our
site,
which
you'll
see
blown
up
in
the
aerial
and
in
more
detail
on
the
next
slide.
Please.
V
So
this
is
a
front
view
along
Tremont
Street.
Looking
at
the
existing
conditions,
the
combined
site
is
both
16
17
and
1615.
Tremont
Street
1617
is
the
former
VFW
Post
building
it's
a
nondescript
single-story
structure.
We
are
within
the
Brigham
Circle
Landmark
sub-district,
that
particular
building
is
noted
as
having
no
historic
consequence
in
its
study
area.
The
building
to
the
right,
which
will
be
combined
with
the
development,
remains
and
is
a
a
noted
row
house,
which
you
will
see
in
the
context
of
the
area
corner
lot.
V
You
can
see
the
intersection
took
left
for
the
former
Post
building.
That
is
Wigglesworth.
Street
next
slide,
please
so
this
this
is
a
view.
Looking
at
the
side
from
wigglesford
Street
in
back
of
us
is
Brigham
Circle
and
you
can
see
this
is
the
existing
single
story.
Post
building
and
then
you'll
see
the
party
wall
of
the
existing
1615
row
house
to
be
combined
as
part
of
the
development.
Next
slide,
please
a
little
further
in
context.
So
the
first
you
looking
East,
you
can
see
in
the
foreground.
V
V
So
we
put
this
together
just
to
show
you
the
justification
for
the
hardship
for
the
variances
sought,
we're
in
an
MFR,
LS
Zone,
obviously,
a
non-conforming
structure
with
the
post
today.
That
is
basically
built
to
the
lot
lines,
there's
very
little,
if
anything
that
could
be
built
here
under
existing
zoning,
that
would
be
feastful
in
any
way
shape
or
form,
and
you
can
see
that
by
virtue
of
the
front
and
rear
side
setbacks
and
the
fact
that
this
is
a
rectangular
lot
at
the
corner
and
you'll
see
in
the
in
the
middle.
V
What
is
a
mere
500
square
foot
footprint
and
that's
what
zoning
allows
to
the
right
is
the
existing
structure
which
will
remain,
and
our
proposal
is
to
take
advantage
of
opportunity
in
a
combined
development
at
the
rear
next
slide.
Please
so
you'll
see
this
in
plan
view
in
a
minute
from
the
architect,
but
again
just
to
give
you
some
other
metrics
on
the
project.
V
The
combined
lot
area
of
approximately
5079
square
feet
and
you
can
see
we're
proposing
a
four-story
building
that
also
takes
advantage
of
a
lower
level
in
the
basement
and
next
slide.
Please
so
the
zoning
code
I
think
the
slide
sort
of
speaks
to
this
in,
in
you
know,
a
very
helpful
way
as
to
the
limitations,
but,
as
I
mentioned,
the
front
yard,
setback
of
20,
the
rear
yard,
setback
of
30
and
the
side
yard
setback
being
10
feet.
That's
required.
V
So
what's
important
here
to
note
is
the
existing
conditions
again,
the
building
that
is
at
the
Post
building
at
the
corner,
basically
built
to
the
lot
line
and
what
we
require
relief
for
is
for
the
floor
area
ratio
of
the
combined
development,
which
utilizes
the
existing
far
in
the
row
house
building
and
necessitates
a
variance
of
3.5
for
the
building
height,
and
this
was
a
discussion
that
we
had
with
the
neighbors
over
an
extended
period
of
time.
Obviously,
the
Post
building
is
under
that.
V
It's
just
a
single
story,
but
the
building
next
to
us
is
about
46
feet
in
height,
and
so
the
combined
development
is
intended
to
stay
around
that
area
and
you'll
see
in
the
presentation.
It
was
important
in
working
with
the
neighborhood
group
with
NHS.
In
particular,
we
received
a
lot
of
helpful
guidance
from
them
and
there
was
a
lot
of
concern
about
with
this
height,
bring
in
a
new
precedent
and
there
are
existing
one
particular
structure.
V
We
are
able
to
get
two
parking
spaces
in
there
today
as
a
community-based
use,
a
Chabad,
a
center
for
recreation,
worship
and
learning
in
an
underserved
area.
We
expect
public
transportation
walkability
and,
quite
frankly,
we
hope
that
this
will
increase
the
demographics
of
Jewish
folks
in
a
neighborhood
by
placing
this
type
of
opportunity
in
this
particular
location,
just
finally
to
speak
to
the
uses.
V
So
the
principal
use
is
a
Chabad
place
of
worship,
Community
Center
there
are
uses
underneath
this
that
are
accessory
to
that,
but
they
all
relate
to
the
principal
use.
Community
Center,
for
example,
isn't
a
community
center
for
no
purpose?
It
is
related
to
the
Chabad
to
the
learning
the
spreading
the
Jewish
faith
and
welcoming
everyone
in
that
is
a
forbidden
use
on
the
second
floor.
But
it's
allowed
on
the
ground
floor
under
zoning.
V
And
finally,
this
preschool
for
the
Arts
is
1500
square
feet,
which
is
very
small
and
obviously
accessory
and
far
less
than
the
total
of
the
overall
Development
Area.
Next
I
would
like
to
you
see
the
refusal
letter
next,
which
I
think
I
identified
and
went
through
with
some
of
the
zoning
violations.
W
W
Do
no
I
appreciate
that
so
yeah.
Thank
you
Joe!
Please,
next
slide
next
slide,
I'll
just
Orient
ourselves
on
the
site,
just
so
on
the
left.
There's
the
existing
1617
Post
building
and
then
1615
is
on
the
left.
I'm.
Sorry
1650!
Next,
to
that,
the
the
plan
on
the
on
the
right
of
this
of
the
sheet
is
showing
what
we're
proposing
so
we're
looking
at
filling
out
the
floor
plate
or
the
footprint
of
1617,
maintaining
16-15
setback,
but
expanding
the
back
into
the
private
alley.
Next
slide.
W
Jumping
right
to
an
axon
view,
while
these
are
above
the
grade
and
won't
be
seen
from
a
public
way,
this
was
the
best
way
for
us
to
explain
how
we're
managing
the
height.
As
Joe
mentioned,
we
looked
at
the
adjacent
structures.
The
height
that
you
see
is
45
foot
10
and
a
half
feet
above
grade.
There
is
an
adjacent
structure,
that's
further
down
on
the
Block,
a
long
tremolent
that
you
can
see.
There's
a
head
house
there,
that's
a
it's
a
dormer
that
goes
up
to
about
48
feet
high
above
grade.
W
The
structure
of
the
proposed
Chabad
Center
is
maintaining
that
height.
The
parapet
does
go
above
that
to
48
feet
for
logical
and
safety
reasons
for
the
program
that
would
be
on
the
roof
above
that
you're,
seeing
just
the
minimal
area
of
an
elevator
head
house
and
an
access
off
of
that
elevator
and
then
access
stair
from
the
roof
next
slide.
W
We
also
looked
at
several
street
views.
We
presented
these
with
the
neighborhood
group
and
also
had
meetings
with
staff,
informal
meetings
with
staff
at
Boston
landmarks
to
discuss
the
massing,
how
we're
tapering
the
building
back.
At
the
fourth
floor,
so
we're
maintaining
a
height,
that's
consistent
of
the
48
foot
10
of
the
block,
but
then
we're
also
stepping
it
down
to
the
third
floor
and
moving
reducing
the
footprint
all
of
the
fourth
floor,
residences
that
I'll
that
I'll
talk
about
shortly,
Just
A,
View
From,
also
maintaining
anything
above
that
view
shed.
W
W
W
Just
some
plans
to
show
you
those
places
of
worship
on
the
ground
floor
in
the
middle.
You
can
see
the
pocket
Courtyard
off
of
Tremont
Street,
that
fronts
1615
and
then
other
worship.
Space
on
the
second
floor
is
places
of
gathering,
and
you
can
see
the
the
preschool
spaces
in
the
lower
level
in
dark
blue
next
slide.
W
Please,
the
guest
quarters
just
two
story,
just
two
floors
of
those
just
to
give
you
a
sense
of
how
that
organizes
itself
because
of
the
tight
nature
of
the
site,
actually
close
to
40
of
the
site
of
the
footprint
of
the
building,
is
taken
up
with
egress
capacity
and
and
Life
Life
Safety
Systems.
Next
slide,
please
just
to
give
you
a
sense
of
the
scale
on
on
Wigglesworth.
W
W
We
also
have
at
the
ends
acknowledging
that
these
are
blocks
at
the
corners
of
larger
scale,
streets
like
Tremont,
Street
or
Huntington
Avenue,
and
just
looking
at
the
all
of
the
way
at
the
end,
through
where
Huntington
is
that's
another,
that's
actually
a
five-story
building
on
the
corner
of
Huntington,
so
managing
that
height
and
moving
the
building
back
as
it
gets
higher,
but
also
stepping
at
the
ground
plane.
Stepping
it
in
was
important
next
slide.
Please
just
some
street
views,
so
this
is
looking
down
Tremont
into
brick
and
circle
next
slide,
please!
W
This
is
a
little
bit
closer
up,
showing
you
the
massing
as
it
steps
back
some
diagrammatic
I'll
give
you
some
data
points.
Stepping
the
building
at
the
ground
floor
next
slide,
please
again
for
Wigglesworth,
maintaining
that
three-story
sort
of
masonry
facade,
but
then
stepping
it
back
for
that
that
Penthouse
fourth
floor
to
minimize
the
the
size
of
massing
along
this
stream,
and
you
can
also
see
the
ghosted
in
image
of
the
of
the
elevator
or
run.
W
Just
another
view:
without
the
diagrammatic
elements,
thinking
about
holding
the
massing
on
the
corner,
but
stepping
it
back
at
the
public
realm,
maintaining
that
public,
maintaining
the
park,
the
front
Park
and
space
in
front
of
16,
15,
Row,
House,
preserving
and
restoring
1615,
but
then
minimizing
the
amount
of
anything
visible
from
the
public
realm
or
the
elevator
head
house.
That
gets
you
that
roof
access
and
safety
and
egress
that's
accessible,
I'm
going
to
stop
there
and
thank
you
thank.
E
You,
madam
chair,
happy
to
take
questions.
One
question:
are
you
able
to
add
Street
trees
along
all
the
sidewalks
here?
It
looks
like
you
could
use
them.
V
Yeah.
Thank
you
for
that
question.
We
in
working
with
the
district
8
City
councilor,
councilor
Bach.
That
was
something
that
you
know
prior
to
her
leaving
her
post
was
something
that
you
know
you'll
see
on
the
ground
plane
that
Jason,
you
can
explain
a
little
more
is
we're
setting
that
building
back
further
at
the
corner,
so
that
we
can
have,
you
know,
widened
sidewalks
and
the
ability
to
do
some
Street
trees.
V
As
was
indicated,
you
know
because
we're
in
the
landmark
area
we'll
have
to
not
just
the
building
itself,
but
any
of
those
site
elements
will
also
be
subject
to
landmarks.
Should
we
have
be
fortunate
enough
to
get
a
board
of
appeal
approval
Jason.
You
want
to
add
to
that.
Oh.
W
Yeah
I
think
I
would
add
just
that
the
there
are
trees
on
Wigglesworth
already
we
are
proposing
to
maintain
them,
and
then
we
are
looking
at
some
alternatives
to
bring
more
green
sort
of
Greening.
This
corner
a
little
more
substantial,
a
long
Tremont
with
that
added
sidewalk
depth
that
will
create
more
opportunity
for
tree
planting.
There
are
a
couple
of
trees
that
are
pretty
battered,
there's
a
few
trees
that
aren't
shown
in
this
just
so
that
we
didn't
confuse
it
with
the
massing
proposal
that
we're
showing.
W
V
Yeah,
so
that
front
yard
is
set
back
further
than
the
existing
conditions
on
the
wall,
yeah
yeah,
but
obviously
the
front
yard
on
the
protected
I.
Guess
what
I
would
call
the
protectant
Row
House
remains
we're
not
so
yeah
it'll
be
improved
condition
and,
like
Jason
said,
we
have
to
be
a
little
creative
because
it
is
a
little
tight
at
the
corner.
X
W
If
you
could
just
flip
it
to
the
first
floor,
the
ground
floor,
whether
the
floor
plans
were,
and
maybe
just
pull
in
a
little
bit,
so
we
could
see
that
go
back.
I'm
sorry,
keep
going,
go,
go
down
to
about
slide!
15.!
Oh
right
here,
yep
right
there!
Thank
you!
So
it's
a
great
question.
W
So
the
parking
we
were
able
to
tuck
it
inside
underneath
in
the
building,
so
it's
covered
parking
I
would
have
a
roll
down
door
and
it
does
is
access
from
the
private
Alleyway
not
from
so
that
access
that
Alleyway
does
enter
onto
Wigglesworth,
but
the
parking
spaces
will
be
pulled
in
from
that.
V
X
M
So
much
question,
but
just
observation.
You
know
we
received
like
250
emails
of
support
for
the
facility,
but
we
also
received
two
letters
that
kind
of
stand
out:
our
Community
Association
letters,
specifically
the
Community
Alliance
in
Mission
Hill,
and
also
Mission
Hill
Neighborhood,
who,
as
a
group
kind
of
opposes
the
project,
so
I
find
that
at
odds
to
one
another.
M
You
know
the
project
had
extreme
like
Community
benefits,
right
I'm
struggling
with
the
250
email
supports,
and
then
your
local
Underground
Community
associations,
which
highlight
again,
as
you
already
noted,
the
height
you
know
like
the
height,
would
potentially
be
a
precedent.
Keep.
M
V
Thank
you
for
the
question
because
you
know
I
know
your
your
time
is
is
precious
here,
but
that's
really
important
if
Madam
Ambassador,
if
you
go
back
to
I,
believe
it's
page
four
and
that
could
just
so
couple
things
to
note
and
clarify
so
yeah.
The
two
groups,
Community
Alliance
of
Mission
Hill,
as
well
as
NHS.
First
I
would
like
to
thank
them
for
engaging
in
a
very
productive
conversation
with
us.
V
The
letter
from
NHS
is,
you
know,
I'm
sure
you,
you
can
read
it,
but
it's
supportive
of
the
program
right
and
of
the
uses
and
and
and
they
brought
to
our
attention-
a
concern
about.
V
You
know
creating
a
new
precedent
on
this
section
of
Tremont
Street
with
the
height
itself,
and
so
we
did
through
the
process,
and
this
did
not
win
them
over.
But
it
was
very
helpful
and
we
took
it
very
seriously.
Was
We
did
an
examination
and
if
you
look
at
this
Photograph
on
the
upper
right
side,
that's
the
existing
building
at
1609,
Tremont
Street,
it's
about
48
feet
in
height,
and
it
predates
the
adoption
of
the
landmarks
District
commission
here
and
so
in
Jason's
proposal.
V
You'll
see
that
we're
respecting
that
datum
line
at
our
parapet
and
further
we
have
reduced
the
Mechanicals
to
less
than
I
think
it's
around
12
percent
of
the
top
now
they're.
Still
they
were
still
concerned
and
again
we
we
see
the
landmarks
as
an
opportunity
to
further
review
and
address
that,
and
we
appreciate
the
input
from
NHS,
as
well
as
from
the
Community
Alliance,
very
welcoming
to
the
Jewish
community,
and
the
proposal
here
and
I
think
see
the
benefits
of
what
this
can
do
for
the
community
now
just
to
bring
you
closer
in
on
support.
V
There's
only
one
direct
adjacent
of
butter,
meaning
not
separated
by
that
Alleyway
in
the
back,
and
that
is
the
building
which
you'll
see
right
next
to
1615,
that
is
1613
Tremont
Street.
That
owner
submitted
a
letter
of
non-opposition,
which
you
have
in
your
records
again.
There
are
Community
interest
groups
and
that's
important,
but
we're
also
told
to
work
with
our
closest
supporters.
You've
also
received
in
your
packet
of
emails,
not
just
from
the
Jewish
Community
speaking
to
how
important
this
is
in
an
underserved
area,
but
also
from
owners
and
residents
in
Mission
Hill.
V
We
understand-
and
you
know
that
35
feet
is
the
underlying
zoning,
but
it's
not
correct
to
say
that
that
is
a
condition
that
doesn't
already
exist
or
have
exceptions
to
right
around
us,
and
you
know
clearly,
there
are
other
religious
uses
in
the
area
that
have
far
more
height
like
one
of
the
only
basilicas
and
women
Catholic
church,
and
so
we
do
think
that
this
proposal
and
these
types
of
uses
and
really
the
need
to
provide
diversity
of
Faith
culture
and
opportunity
in
a
community,
especially
when
we're
creating
so
much
new
housing
at
a
train
station
that
the
balance
is
Justified.
V
Especially
as
we
look
at
replacing
you
know
a
veterans
post
as
a
non-conforming
structure
and
use
with
something
that
will
further
public
policy
and
sort
of
the
needs
for
a
growing
city.
Z
Chair
members
of
the
board,
this
is
Maggie
van
scoy
from
the
office
of
neighborhood
services.
At
this
time,
our
office
would
like
to
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
the
board.
We
had
an
investors
meeting
for
this
project
on
August
23rd
and
concerns
were
raised
primarily
around
heightened
density,
and
the
number
of
variants
is
being
soft.
A
few
people
were
particularly
concerned
about
a
project
of
this
size
being
constructed
in
the
Mission
Hill
triangle:
historic,
Conservation
District.
Z
From
two
abutting
households
on
valve
for
the
project,
we
also
received
over
200
letters
in
support
of
the
project,
including
a
few
living
in
or
close
to,
Mission
Hill
and
many
from
other
Boston
neighborhoods,
the
Greater
Boston
area
and
several
folks
from
out
of
state.
Our
office
has
also
seen
letters
of
support
from
City
councilors
at
large
and
Murphy
City
councilor
president
Flynn
State
reptiler
and
former
District
Aid
counselor
Mike
Ross,
also
of
note
to
the
silica
of
Our
Lady
of
Perpetual
Help
down
the
street
from
this
project
is
also
in
support.
G
H
AB
Chair
members
of
the
board,
all
Sullivan
for
city
council
at
lodge
Michael
Flaherty,
the
counselor
acknowledges
that
there
is
still
opposition
amongst
the
community
groups
in
regard
to
the
the
height
of
the
variants
that
are
set
for
height.
However,
at
this
particular
point,
the
counselor
would
state
that
this
is
a
worthwhile
project.
The
overall
project
is
a
good
project.
You
like
to
go
on
record
support
and
ask
that
the
proponent
continue
to
work
with
the
neighbors,
the
community
groups
and
the
Buddhas
to
address
any
concerns.
Thank
you.

And
I
live
in

Paul

in
Newton
I'm,
a
mother
of

who's
lived
in
Boston
for
my
most
of
my
life
and
I'm
speaking
in
strong
support
for
the
scrambling
foreign
project.
When
I
was
newly
married
and
had
just
been
first
as
my
first
child,
my
husband
underwent
surgery
for
brain
tumor
at
Brigham,
Women's
Hospital,
and
he
was
truly
a
dance
floor
for
many
weeks.
I
did
not
leave
his
side
when
you're
in
a
medical
crisis.
The
last
thing
that
a
person
thinks
of
is
the
simple

in
life.

Imagine
that
my
experience
could
have
been
so
different
if
I
had
a
place
there
to
eat
something
with
more
sassy
instead
of
granola
bar
or
to
put
my
head
down
on
an
actual
bed
for
a
few
hours
or
a
synagogue
to
Crane
with
the
collective
and
have
a
monochrome
of
spiritual
support.
Years
later,
I
had
my
own
cancer
battle.

Outlier

its
lack
of
resources
and
support
patients

their
caregivers
I
do
not
know
any
other
neighborhood
in
our
Major
Medical
Center,
especially
in
a
city
that
has
as
many
Jewish
residents
as
Boston
has,
that
does
not
have
a
synagogue
in
all
of
my
years.
The
Boston
area
there's
no
initiative
that
is
more
critically
important
than
overdue
than
the
one
that
is
before
you
today.
I
strongly
urge
the
board
to
support
this
project
and
to
allow
the
Jewish
Community
equal
access
to
culturally
cognitive
care
when
going

standing
here
before
you
proudly
to

say
that
it's

that

have

perspective
in
favor.
I
know
that
you

are
looking
for
our
position
right
now,
but
I
basically
lead
the
Jewish
Club
at
the
Harvard
Medical
School
and
the
Harvard
School
of
Dental
Medicine,
which
is
about
a
block
away
from
the
proposed
building
going
straight
through
Wigglesworth
and
for
the
past
years
we
have
not
had
a
Jewish
home
at
all
close
to
our
campus
and
for
many
students
who
are
visiting
the
area.
Often
you
need
this
cultural
grounding
presence.
AG
You
often
feel
away
from
home
away
from
family
and
your
culture.

background
is
the
one
thing
that
keeps
you
going
and
and
gives
you
this
grounding

this
passion
to
continue
this
home.
This

I
speak
completely
in
favor
of
this
project

As
it's
been

before,
the
neighborhood
was
very
happy
to
see.
Habad
come
to
our
neighborhood
when
they
purchased
a
town
home
on
Worthington
Street.
That
was
not
addressed
in
this
whole
issue.
Our
concern
is
that
we
are
a
historic
or
a
conservation,
architectural
country
based
Conservation
District,
and
this
will
set
a
precedent
of
exceeding
the
35
feet.
AH
That's
allowable
currently
attorney
Hanley
points
to
a
head
house
that
was
existing
and
on
historic,
headphones
that
was
existing
before
the
district
was
set,
and
that's
the
line
that
they're
conducting.
We
would
love
to
see
the
bod
further
their
mission
and
add
to
the
neighborhood's
wealth
within
the
height
restrictions
between
the
three
buildings
that
they
own
within
the
historic
triangle.
We
would
love
to
see
if
they
can
manage
to
stay
within
the
height
and
not
set
the
precedent,
as
there
are
other
projects
that
are
in
encroaching
on
the
historic
district.
AH
E
V
Madam,
chair
I,
know
I
can't
speak
for
the
bpda,
but
it
was
important
for
us
to
get
a
copy
of
that
recommendation,
which
was
a
recommendation
of
approval
subject
to
landmarks,
and
so,
as
architect,
Jason
jewhurst
indicated
we
out
of
the
spirit
in
addressing
that
recommendation
of
approval
from
planning
we
engaged
in
advisory
staff
review.
V
Of
course,
we
can't
go
to
landmarks
unless
we're
approved
by
zoning,
but
we
very
much
appreciate
the
support
and
recommended
approval
of
bpda
and
we
have
put
together
a
team
that
is
very
much
prepared
to
continue
to
work
with
the
landmarks
department
on
this.
Should
we
be
fortunate
enough
to
obtain
your
approval
to
go
forward.
E
Yeah
I
think
the
bpga
recommended
sort
of
to
conform
with
design
standards
of
the
Mission
Hill
triangle.
Architectural
Conservation
District
is
that
is
that
what
you're?
Referring
to,
when
you
say,
landmarks,
yeah.
V
Well,
it
said:
recommended
approval,
subject
to
the
triangle:
District,
you
know
design
standards,
review
yeah
which
which
again
we
can't
impose
that
until
it
can't
be
adjudicated
right
until
it
has
been
approved
by
zoning,
but
we
have
met
with
staff
and
the
proposal
that
you
see
before
you
is
Guided
by
the
input
that
we've
received
by
staff,
the
guidelines,
don't
say
35
feet
or
nothing,
and
you
know
respectfully.
If
we're
told
that
you
know
you
either
have
to
build
to
a
35
foot
height
on
a
rectangular
lot.
V
AI
Madam
chair
yes
good
afternoon,
this
is
Tommy
from
Council
Aaron
Murphy's
office
I
apologize
for
going
out
of
order,
but
we
were
just
technical
difficulties.
When
we
were
trying
to
comment
councilman,
he
would
like
to
go
on
the
record
and
supported
this
project.
She
welcomed
to
the
Hubbard
in
this
community
and
has
met
with
the
community
members
for
this
much
needed
space.
AI
Although
she
supports
the
project,
she
would
like
the
developers
to
continue
to
work
with
the
community
over
some
concerns
they
had
to
type
and
she
would
also
like
them
to
continue
working
closely
with
the
landmarks
commission.
Thank
you.

AK
E
Okay,
so
this
was
change
of
occupancy
from
a
three
to
four
family:
no
work
to
be
done.
AK
Y
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
Conor
Newman,
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services
this
time
the
mayor's
office
like
to
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
this
board
back
information
on
the
community
process.
We
host
in
the
butters
meeting
on
August
30th.
They
went
on
to
be
approved
by
the
jpnc
zoning
committee,
we're
not
aware
of
any
opposition
at
this
time,
but
that
will
defer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
E
AM
So
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
there
is
pre-existing
a
single-family
structure
in
what
is
otherwise
a
three
family.
Four
thousand
sub
District.
We
have
approximately
4
500
square
feet
of
lot
size
per
code.
There
are,
is
four
thousand
square
feet
of
land
required
to
build
a
second
unit.
AM
AM
The
proponent
is
seeking
to
build
to
the
rear
of
the
structure
kind
of
following
the
existing
plane
of
the
structure.
That's
pre-existing,
as
you
can
see,
step
back
in
that
structure
in
exchange
for
some
greater
deference
to
the
butter
to
our
left
with
some
bump
out
window
wells,
The
Proposal
is
to
build
again
new
structure
to
the
rear
for
two
more
units
to
bring
into
aggregate
three
total
units
with
five
proposed
off
street
parking
spaces.
E
They
contemplate
that,
in
addition,
is
excessive
and
lot
coverage
and
height
and
the
proponent
should
consider
a
project
that
is
closer
and
high
to
existing
building
and
increased
side
yard
setbacks.
In
order
to
improve
space
between
the
addition
and
abutting
parcels,
bpda
recommendation.
AM
Madam,
chair
may
I
briefly
respond
sure.
So,
in
light
of
being
able
to
build
additional,
we
believe
we
can
build
additional
structure
additional
unit
without
violating
any
of
the
code.
If
we
expand
the
current
front
plane
of
the
building
and
build
laterally
that
runs
into
existing
parking
to
our
immediate
left,
we
have
a
parcel
of
land
with
two
separate
structures
on
it,
which
runs
much
deeper
into
the
existing
lot
left
to
our
immediate
right.
AM
We
have
two
Parcels
one:
has
a
structure
built
very
deep
into
that
lot
and
then
another
structure
to
its
right,
which
kind
of
looks
like
again
two
structures
on
the
same
lot.
We
do
have
a
letter
of
support
from
our
immediate
about
our
to
our
right,
who
also
owns
the
parcels
behind
so
one
owner
that
wraps
our
building
is
in
support
of
this
project.
AM
So
we
could
increase
the
wall
face
on
the
front
side
to
build
a
second
unit.
The
preference
has
been
to
kind
of
follow
what
exists
to
our
left
and
exists
to
the
right
to
build
deeper
into
the
lot.
The
Proposal
is
to
have
a
structure
that
the
roof
line
of
the
rear
structure
is
actually
at
about
31
feet,
which
is
below
the
limitation
of
code.
AM
So
it's
the
proponent,
The
Proposal
of
the
applicant
to
use
the
depth
of
the
lot
to
deeper,
as
opposed
to
building
laterally
across
the
lot,
which
then
may
have
complications
for
parking
and
the
like.
So
with
the
exception
of
deference,
maybe
to
our
left
and
butter,
we
have
the
support
of
our
right
and
rear
abutters
as
I
understand
it.
Coming
in
after
the
initial
a
butter
meeting,
there
was
some
concern
about
lack
of
parking
when
I
then
saw
the
plans
at
no
Spike
to
our
architect.
AM
AM
So
that's
a
kind
of
brief
overview
of
yeah.
M
AM
I
am
not
I'm
not
aware
of
the
personal
receipt.
I
would
say
that
the
new
structure
is
within
approximately
40
feet
from
the
front
lot
line
as
I
understand
it
usually
100
feet
or
deeper,
is
when
you
know
the
fire
department
otherwise
becomes
concerned
of
access
to
a
rear,
Edition
or
a
rear
structure.
Yeah.
M
AM
I
certainly
think
with
new
construction
that
is
not
cost
prohibitive.
I
think
that
that
would
be
very
acceptable
and
to
confirm
would
it
be
for
the
proposed
new
structure
or
also
then
implementing
fire
sprinklers
in
the
existing
structure,
which
we.
M
Don't
yeah
and
I
I'm
just
making
some
comments
to
to
see
how
open
you
are
I'm,
not
telling
you
what
to
do,
but
I
would
imagine
it's
for
new.
The
new
construction
yeah.
E
Questions
all
right:
let's
move
to
public
comments.
C
All
right,
hi
good
afternoon,
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board
teacher
Santana
with
the
mayor's
office,
and
they
have
services
and
the
veterans
meeting
was
found
on
October
20th
2022,
where
our
voters
expressed
concern
over
density
of
the
area.
There
is
strong
opposition
from
Bettors
due
to
the
street
being
very
narrow.
It
was
already
mentioned
with
emergency
vehicles
passing
by
parking
issues
and
the
direct
Deputy
right
behind
the
property
expressing
concern
over
it
blocking
the
direct
sunlight
to
her
property
as
well.
C
There
were
also
they
were
not
pleased
with
the
engagement
they
received
from
the
applicant's
representative,
but
the
applicant
did
receive
one
signature
of
support,
but
other
than
that
there
was
Stronger
positions
from
the
rest
of
the
abutters
and
they
also
met
with
the
St
Patrick's
neighborhood
association,
where
they
also
wrote
in
a
letter
proposition,
and
at
this
point
we
would
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
AN
Hello
I'm
attending
the
meeting
today
on
behalf
of
City
councilor
Tanya
Fernandez
Anderson
Leah
was
a
meeting
held
as
Keisha
just
mentioned.
It
was
a
meeting
out
with
the
St
Patrick's
neighborhood
association,
which
includes
direct
about
it
of
the
project,
and
it
was
overwhelming
opposition
to
this
project,
basically
because
of
the
overcrowding
of
the
site,
they
also
met
with
Dublin
Street
neighborhood
initiative,
who
did
not
write
a
letter
of
support
So
under
the
circumstances.
The
counselor
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
opposition
to
this
project.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
AO
E
Bob
D'amico
I
see
your
hands
raised.
Oh.
AP
Yes,
Madam
Chairman's,
not
the
boy
bumped
me
for
BTD
I,
see
in
the
request
that
they
were
adding
three
parking
spaces.
Now,
if
I
heard
correctly,
they
want
to
add
five
I
have
not
seen
a
revised
parking
plan
for
flying
vehicles
and
I
think
it
would
be
more
up
to
BTD
and
made
that
decision
than
the
proponent
and
I
would
like
to
see
it
in
the
parking
plan
if
it
exists.
AP
E
L
S
All
right
get
everybody
hearing,
yes,
okay,
so
good
morning,
well,
actually,
good
afternoon,
this
call
is
supposed
to
be
at
11,
30
and
I
had
a
lot
of
other
things.
I
was
juggling,
but
my
name's
Lavette
Coney
and
I'm
on
the
counselor
Anderson's
advisory
Council,
as
well
as
the
president
of
Mount
Pleasant
Ford,
combined
neighborhood
association,
which
is
also
a
part
of
that
neighborhood,
and
we
oppose
the
project.
We
are
not
opposed
to
homeowners,
the
homeowner
obtaining
an
Adu
or
an
addition
to
their
existing
property.
S
That's
we
are
in
favor
of
developing
collaborative
of
the
Butters
and
others
who
would
be
adversely
impacted,
otherwise,
Stewart
affordability
can
be
achieved
in
other
ways,
and
so
this
current
project
as
it
stands,
is
irresponsive
of
those
who
live
in
the
already
dense
on
the
stent
Street,
and
it
would
be
irresponsible
of
the
zb8
to
allow
this
to
move
forward
and
I
wonder
if
anyone
on
this
board
has
actually
been
to
the
site.
So
I
think
it's
really
important
for
sites
such
as
this
for
you
to
actually
go
to
see.
S
L
L
AQ
AQ
I'm
on
record
this
on
the
Boston
fire
department
as
strongly
opposing
this
this
project,
and
if
there
is
any
questions,
refer
to
my
statement
that
the
people
of
Roxbury
will
be
in
great
great
danger.
If
this
project
continues
in
the
way
it
will.
AM
Sure
briefly,
yes,
you
confirm
this
is
a
three-family
sub
District.
AM
Structure
non-adu,
as
of
right
with
them
potentially
accessory
dwelling
unit,
maybe
units,
so
that's
not
the
intent.
The
intent
of
over
create
over
you
know
too
much
density,
but
to
be
able
to
build
three
units
and
maintain
sufficient
and
as
much
parking
as
possible.
Again,
that
is
what
proposed
the
plan
to
build
deeper
into
the
law
off
the
existing
structure.
L
I
AR
My
name
is
Christine
fideli
I'm,
a
lifelong
resident
that
resides
at
14
Dunmore
Street
good
afternoon.
Madam
chair
members
of
the
zoning
board
I'm
the
president
of
St
Patrick's,
neighborhood
Civic
of
Roxbury,
and
these
are
the
reasons
why
the
Civic
is
opposed.
Project
is
too
large,
too
dense
jammed
an
existed
property.
AR
The
project
will
block
access
property
for
the
fire
department
in
the
police
department.
We
did
propose
that
they
take
the
single
family
and
turn
it
into
a
two
or
three
family,
along
with
the
rest
of
the
neighbors
I.
They
refuse
to
do
that.
We
had
zero
zero
percent
of
any
meetings,
the
first
one
we
had.
Actually
the
police
came
and
it
was
canceled.
AR
We
have
100
in
our
position
now
as
the
Director
Buddha
that
I
live.
This
is
directly
going
to
affect
my
house
I'm,
going
to
have
huge
I'm
going
to
lose
all
my
windows
I'm,
going
to
have
exhausts
that
come
through
the
windows
of
my
lower
level,
so
I'm
asking
that
this
is
does
not
get
approved.
Thank.
M
Madam
chair
I
would
like
to
put
a
motion
of
deny
without
prejudice,
given
the
community's
opposition.

Apologies
I'm.
The

for

AS
You
sorry
about
that.
I
didn't
realize
I
wasn't

My
name

Eric

I'm.
The
architect
for
the
project.
I
am
at
sorry
on
Charmaine

owner,
who
was
just
texting
me
that
she
can't
be
hurt
either
but
I'm
the
architect
for

for
the
project.
My
address
is

AS
Added
to
the
thank
you
very
much
so
the
project
is
an
existing
single-family
home
that
Terry
and
Charmaine
purchased
them
have
occupied
for
I,
guess
close
to
two
years
now
and
are
looking
to
add
a
roof
deck
on
at
the
top
at
the
top
above
the
existing
roof,
because
you
see
kind
of
in
the
upper
left
and
there
would
be
minimal
work
on
the
level
below
in
order
to
incorporate
the
staircase.
But
the
levels
below
that
would
remain
attacked
or
as
existing.

AT
F
AU
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members.
The
board
attorney
Jeff
Drago
with
Drago
and
Toscano
I,
don't
know
what
the
business
address
of
11
Beacon
Street
here
on
behalf
of
Fernando
and
Mary
Lou
Fernandez,
the
owners
and
occupants
of
295
Webster
Street
I
also
have
George
Collins
who's,
the
surveyor
and
Aussie
May
message
who's
the
architect
for
the
proposal.
This
is
pretty
straightforward.
AU
The
building
that
you
are
looking
at
is
an
existing
building
and
we're
looking
to
change
the
occupancy
to
a
three-family
dwelling,
which
is
very
common
in
this
particular
area,
all
the
buildings
around
it
and
behind
an
extend
living
space
for
an
additional
unit
in
the
basement,
a
garden
level
unit.
This
is
a
family-owned
home
they're.
Looking
at
for
16
years,
the
space
in
the
basement
is
for
their
son
when
they
purchased
the
building.
The
basement
was
already
a
build
out
as
well,
and
so
it's
really
legalizing
that
space.
AU
AU
This
is
the
site
plan,
and
so,
when
you
come
out,
there's
a
full
walkout
out
the
back
of
the
garden
level
unit
for
a
second
means
of
egress,
with
the
full
passageway
regress
as
well
of
the
ram
just
to
give
you
an
idea
of
this
isn't
3F
2000
square
foot
district
and
the
layout
is
going
to
be
a
proposed
Garden
level
with
seven
foot,
six
inch
sailing
height,
so
rare
egress,
the
upstairs
unit.
AU
Also
family,
is
a
two
bed
one
bath
on
the
first
floor
and
then
the
second
and
third
floor
on
their
primary
residence
is
also
just
unit
three.
So
that
is
a
multi-bed
second
and
third
floor.
It's
got
four
bedrooms
on
it
that
they
use
and
those
are
all
pre-existing
units
just
to
go
over
the
violations
that
were
mentioned
additional
lot
area
required
where
it
would
be
a
thousand
square
feet,
we're
at
911,
far
rent
2.2,
usable,
open
space,
we're
not
changing
anything
in
the
rear
or
any
anymore.
We're
at
278
square
feet
per
unit.
AU
300
would
be
required
and
we
would
be
required
to
have
an
additional
parking
space,
although
there
are
two
on
site
now.
This
actually
shows
this
plan
of
the
garden
level
unit.
You
can
just
see
it's
the
walkout
out
the
back,
there's
a
separate
utility
room
that
houses,
the
utilities
for
the
building
and
then
access
through
a
side
door
to
get
into
the
garden
level
unit,
which
is
904
square
feet
of
hose.
E
AU
It
would
be
so
if
you,
if
you
go
back
I'm
sorry
just
to
to
the
pictures
one
more
up
after
this,
you
can
see
the
building
next
to
it.
It's
very
common.
The
slope
is
that
goes
back
from
Webster
Street.
You
can
see.
Ours
is
even
deeper,
but
it
allows
for
that
full
walk
out
over
the
back
yeah.
M
Y

Madam

Connor

We
have
been
working
on

we
have
had
close
to
100
stakeholder

The
feedback
we've
received
today
at
the
incredibly
helpful
to
shape
the
project
next
slide.
Please,
the
project
balances,
commercial
use,
housing
and
public

improvements
with
a
significant,

D
D
AL
Good
afternoon
your
Madam
chair
and
members
of
the
board,
we
are
very
excited
from
Penrose
to
be
here
to
be
able
to
present
95
Everett
to
the
board
and
it
will
bring
a
lot
of
significant,
affordable
housing
to
a
neighborhood
that
has
experienced
a
lot
of
change
and
we're
excited
to
bring
some
level
of
stability
for
affordability.
So
if
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide,
please.
AL
One
of
the
first
priorities
in
working
with
the
blank
family
for
this
site
was
to
maximize
the
amount
of
affordable
units
that
we
can
produce
so
of
the
88
units.
74
will
be
affordable
and
will
be
affordable
and
perpetuity,
and
we
think
that
this
will
be
a
great
benefit
to
the
community
and
echoing
what
David
just
mentioned.
A
lot
of
Community
Support
has
brought
us
to
this
stage
and
we
have
seen
the
excitement
from
the
ieg
and
from
Community
groups
at
the
affordability
of
this
will
bring.
AL
Secondly,
in
looking
at
the
unit
mix,
we
have
created
a
mix
of
Studios
one
bedrooms,
two
bedrooms
as
well
as
three
bedrooms,
because
we
recognize
that
family
size
units
is
important
to
the
neighborhood
and
we're
excited
to
be
able
to
deliver
that
in
95
to
spend
95
Everett
project.
So
with
that
I'll
hand
it
over
to
Jacob
Taylor
from
find
Hornet
to
run
us
quickly
through
the
requested
variances.

Good
afternoon
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
Jacob
Taylor
I'm,
with
kleinhorn
ag
Lop
we're
at
101
Art
Street.
We
represent
Penrose
LLC,
which
is
the
developer
of
the
95
Everett
Street
project.
Penrose
is
a
pennsylvania-based
developer
of
affordable
housing
and
they've
recently
successfully
developed
a
number
of
affordable
housing
developments
in
Massachusetts,
including
most
recently
The
Pride
project
in
Hyde
Park.
AX
As
David
Bracken
indicated,
the
95
Everett
Street
project
is
the
residential
component
of
a
larger
development
that
also
includes
the
119
Braintree
site,
which
you'll
hear
more
about
later.
The
combined
project
was
approved
by
the
bpda
board
in
March,
after
an
extensive
Community
process
that
Mr
Bracken
described
and
we're
we're
looking.
AX
What
you're
looking
at
here
is
the
site
plan
for
the
95
Everett
Street
site,
as
indicated,
if
we're
proposing
a
seven-story
building
with
88
units
of
various
sizes
and
1200
square
feet
of
local
retail
space
of
the
ground
floor
facing
the
Braintree
Street
side
well
before
the
cbh
today,
seeking
relief
under
article
51,
Section
8
of
the
code
for
multi-family,
residential
use
and
local
retail
use
we're
also
requesting
relief
under
article.
E
AX
No
worries
no
worries
well.
I
will
turn
it
over
to
to
Philippe
sad
from
dimilla
Shafer
design
to
walk
us
through
the
design
elements
of
the
project.
Here.
AY
Good
afternoon
Madam
chairs
and
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
Philip,
sad,
I'm,
a
principal
of
the
military
for
Architects,
and
we
have
been
The
Architects
for
Penrose
on
the
Residential
Building
at
95
efforts.
Since
we
started
the
work
with
the
team,
we
work
very
hard
to
really
maximize
housing
on
that
site
and
also
improve
the
public
realm.
We
have
done
many
improvements
to
the
current
site,
including
increased
visibility
between
Everett
Street
and
Braintree.
Street.
AY
We've
also
took
a
lot
of
consideration
to
making
this
site
welcoming
and
addressable
and
visible
from
the
street
through
the
activation
of
the
first
floor,
mainly
as
you
will
see
in
the
next
slides.
But
what
you
see
in
front
of
you
here
is
a
contextual
side,
sections
of
the
building
that
we
are
discussing
highlighted
in
the
tan
color.
We
wanted
to
put
it
into
the
overall
context
of
Braintree
Street,
highlighting
its
size
in
relationship
to
a
lot
of
the
most
recent
developments
that
have
been
permitted
and
are
being
currently
constructed
along
Braintree
Street.
AY
These
slides
or
these
site
sections
very
much
show
you
how
the
building
really
fits
within
the
new
fabric
along
those
two
streets
being
effort,
Street
and
Braintree.
Street
I
want
to
bring
to
your
attention
the
the
section
at
the
bottom
of
the
page.
This
is
where
our
team
has
worked
to
take
many
residential
components
of
the
immediate
context
and
translate
them
into
the
mid-rise
architecture,
transitioning
from
the
smaller
scale,
residential
into
the
mid-rise
developments
that
is
starting
to
take
shape
along
Braintree,
Street
and
effort.
Street.
AY
Thank
you.
As
we
look
at
the
first
floor
plan
of
of
our
building,
you
will
immediately
notice
the
significant
setback
from
Braintree
Street,
which
allow
for
public
space
to
have
it
and
activities
to
happen
along
Braintree
Street.
You
will
notice
that
the
entrance
of
the
building
is
at
the
angle
and
IT
addresses
directly
the
t-stop
that
is
right
across
diagonally
from
the
building
entrance
and
then
along
every
street.
There
are
a
series
of
family
units
that
are
purposely
designed
to
be
two
level
units
to
really
welcome
families
into
the
site.
AY
These
units
have
direct
access
from
the
sidewalk,
and
even
these
units
have
been
pulled
further
in
board
from
the
property
line
to
allow
for
a
vegetative
buffer
and
some
planting
and
really
to
create
what
we
know
of
as
a
stoop
in
front
of
Brownstones
or
townhouses
in
older
neighborhoods
of
Boston
Lane
Street,
which
is
the
street
at
the
top
of
the
page,
is
a
particularly
Narrow
Street.
So
we
have
created
a
bend
in
the
building
to
be
able
to
create
some
relief
along
that
street,
which
is
somehow
on
the
narrow
side.
AY
The
fitness
and
the
bike
parking
on
that
side
of
the
street
will
further
animate
Lane
Street
as
well,
and
bring
in
some
daily
activities
to
that
part
of
the
part
of
the
development.
The
retail
occupies
the
corner
of
Blaine
and
Braintree
and
is,
and
they
start
getting
some
local
retail
businesses
to
come
in
and
and
partake
in
this
new
community
life
that
we're
creating
on
site
next.
AY
And
a
typical
floor
plans
for
level
three
four
and
five
of
the
of
the
building,
where
you
can
see
it's
in
majority
Studios,
one
bedrooms,
two
bedrooms
and
three
bedrooms:
next,
the
top
floor
is
a
little
bit
more
special.
It
has
the
clubhouse
and
the
Terrace
again
to
create
this,
to
create
a
community
on
site
for
all
the
building
residents.
AY
AY
AY
AY
You
will
notice
the
double
height
or
two-story
family
units
on
the
first
floor
that
occupies
the
majority
of
this
facade,
bringing
in
life
into
Everett
Street,
which
is
currently
there's
not
much
activity
happening
there
and
then
the
glassy
corner
is
where
the
lobby
is
located
and,
as
you
move
to
the
north
facade,
you
see
that
that
same
glass
will
turn
the
corner
and
will
make
itself
into
the
retail
front
of
that
building
along
the
east
elevation
at
Blaine.
Street
elevation
is
the
the
the
middle
of
the
building.
AY
This
is
where
it
has
been
pushed
back
to
allow
for
some
relief
along
that
extra
Narrow.
Street
I
want
to
bring
to
your
attention
to
the
variety
of
of
siding
window
sizes,
as
well
as
the
bay
windows
that
that
signify
residential
architecture
in
a
neighborhood
thanks.
Thank
you,
I
have.
Are
we
out
of
time?
Do.
E
You
want
yeah,
can
you
just
quickly
scroll
through
the
shopping.
AY
AY
So
this
one
isn't
the
one
on
the
right
hand,
side
is
the
view
along
Everett
Street,
the
the
double
height,
the
double
store
units
and
the
bay
windows
white.
The
one
on
the
left
is
the
corner
of
Blaine
and
Everett
Street,
with
the
glassy
retail
local
retail
at
the
corner.
Next
I
think
it'll
be
the
last
slide,
and
this
is
basically
the
entry
the
entrance
to
the
building
at
the
corner
of
Everett
and
Braintree
right
diagonal
from
the
train
station
and
I
think
this
is
the
end
of
the
presentation.
Thank
you
for
your
patience.
Thank.
E
E
AY
Yes,
of
course,
so
this
building
will
be
permitted
based
on
the
upcoming
energy
codes
and
requirements
for
the
city.
So
this
building
aims
to
achieve
fasted
house
regulations,
passive
house
certification,
with
a
as
we
have
shown
at
the
top
solar
panels.
It
will
also
aim
to
meet
lead
gold
requirements.
AY
There's
very
little
landscape.
There's
a
few
trees
I.
We
have
a
landscape
plan,
I'm,
not
sure
it
is
in
this
presentation,
but.
N
Oh
yes,
through
the
chair
or
him
Shepherd
is
this.
N
AL
I
can
take
that
question,
so
this
project
is
affordable,
housing
project
that
would
need
financing
from
both
the
state
and
the
city.
AL
At
this
time
we,
the
city
and
the
state
both
want
to
see
that
we're
shovel
ready
so
we'll
need
zoning
approval
prior
to
submitting
the
application,
so
I
anticipate
that
construction
of
this
project
will
not
start
until
late
end
of
next
year
we
haven't
selected
a
general
contractor
for
this
project
yet,
but
we've
talked
to
several
contractors
that
we've
worked
with
on
other
projects,
just
to
get
a
sense
of
pricing.
AP
P
I
have
a
common
question.
The
comment
is
that
I
appreciate
the
effort
to
increase
the
number
of
affordable
units.
84
percent
of
the
units
are
affordable
and
I,
especially
appreciate
that
there
are
units
for
30,
50
and
60
percent
of
the
area
minimum
income.
We
will
see
that
very
often.
So.
Thank
you
for
that.
Now
the
question
is
I
also
so
that
you
are
probably
this
is
for
the
lab.
The
lab
is
making
a
contribution
of
four
million
dollars
to
a
linkage
fund.
When
is
that
contribution
going
to
be
made.
D
Yeah,
that's
correctly
commercial
building,
which
is
190
19
Braintree
Street,
which
you'll
hear
in
the
next
hearing
that
has
committed
to
provide
leakage
and
we've
been
working
with
the
BPD
in
terms
of
timing
and
all
that.
But
we
they
have
not
specified
or
agreed
to
a
funded.
F
Thank
you
co-chair.
We
do
have
comments
from
disability,
Commission.
E
Yeah,
do
you
want
to
read
that
to
the
record
or
ask
that
question,
let's
see
what
we
have
here
or.
M
Or
I
can
frame
it
if
you
want
yeah
that'd
be
great.
That
was
going
to
be
my
my
feedback.
We
did
hear
back
from
Sierra
Tilton
from
the
mayor's
architecture,
access
specialist
and
she
basically
commented
on
your
three-bedroom
townhouse
units.
M
AY
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
one
thing
that
the
accessibility
requirement
by
the
city
are:
the
10
percent
is
covered
outside
it's
covered
already
outside
of
the
multi-story,
those
six
seven
multi
six
multi-story
units
that
we
have
shown
you
on
the
first
floor
and
each
one
of
these
units
complies
with
the
nav
by
having
an
entrance
on
the
first
floor
and
also
an
entrance
on
the
second
floor.
That's.
M
Right,
the
the
feedback,
my
understanding
and
with
with
her
or
maab,
is
that
whenever
you
pull
together
the
total
amount
of
unit,
if
townhouse
as
a
typology,
is
part
of
that
count,
you
can't
necessarily
exclude
them
if
there
are
townhouses,
where
the
direct,
the
direct
access
from
Once
learning
to
the
other
is
strictly
by
stare.
She
basically
comment
that
you
need
to
incorporate
for
the
future
and
potentially
an
adaptability
of
that
there
could
be
a
lift
inside
those
units,
so
I'm
just
giving
you
some.
AJ
AZ
Good
afternoon,
Madam
chairman
Frank
Mendoza
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services
here
to
testify
we'll
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
the
board
in
this
matter,
as
always,
but
the
applicant
did
conduct
community
outreach
to
the
residents
and
we
do
have
a
letter
on
file
that
the
board
should
have
received
also
from
the
all
specific
Association,
the
president
of
which
Anthony

is
present,
as
well
as

going
to
be
voted
on
after
this
leading
the
combined
project.
119.
I
just
want
to
express
my
support
for
this
project
that
provides
affordable,
housing
and
jobs
close
to
public
transportation,
which
seems
to
basically
be
a
home
run
for
land
use
in
the
city
of
Boston.
Thank
you

Hi
this
is
David
Bracken
again
and
thank
you
for
allowing
me
the
opportunity
to
present
on
what
we
call
119
33,
Street
and
I
promised
the
first
two
slides
will
be
very
fast
because
I,
it's
a
very
repetitive
but
again
we're
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
blank
family,
Michael
and
Aaron
blank
who
are
here
today,
they've
been
the
long
time
owners
of
this
this
site
and
the
building
and-
and
you
can
go
to
the
next
slide-
please.
D
You
know
as
you
as
I
mentioned
before
this
site
is
under
almond
ownership
between
the
two
parcels
and
now
we're
talking
about
the
119
Braintree
Street
site,
which
went
through
article
80,
large
project
review
and
recruited
back
in
March
for
a
386
000
square
foot
office
in
life
science
building
next
next
slide,
please,
the
2012.

Yesterday
planning
study
was
in
the
2017
Boston
win
theater
rail
station
delivery,
where
the
cows
were
bringing
bro
to
the
Austin
bright,
the
site
is
adjacent
to
Austin
yards
and
fossil
Landing
projects
and
here's
the
scale
and
passing
of
those
projects.
D
As
mentioned
previously,
we've
held
close
to
100
stakeholder
meetings
over
four
years,
including
the
public
bpda
board
vote
mentioned
earlier,
but.
D
D
The
project
will
also
create
new
Public
Access
for
people
on
Braintree
Street,
connecting
to
the
everstreet
bridge
and
the
commuter
rail
station
through
a
new,
accessible
public,
elevator
and
stairway.
This
will
be
a
major
public
benefit.
You
can
see
it
kind
of
on
this
photo
in
in
the
background
right
next
to
the
train
station
in
the
everstreet
overpass.
The
project
includes
many
other
public
benefits.
One
worth
noting
is
funding
for
local
artists
from
the
city.
D
D
This
slide
shows
the
existing
conditions
of
119
Braintree
Street,
the
existing
office
building
directly
abuts
the
communal
rail
tracks.
You
can
see
how
close
in
proximity
it
is
on.
The
bottom
right
photo
all
three
existing
Billboards
will
be
removed
from
this
project.
Tony
needs
to
go
just
mentioned
that
on
the
previous
one,
but
they
will
be
removed
and,
as
I
just
mentioned,
the
sidewalks
are
extremely
now.
In
with
our
project.
D
X
Thank
you
Dave,
and
thank
you
no
matter
what
chair
and
the
rest
of
your
board
I'm
looking
at
the
site
landing
around
some
of
the
project
features
in
our
prominent
open
space
to
the
west
side
of
the
building.
The
open
space
will
feature.
You
know
multiple
programmable
areas,
no
feature
accessible
connections
to
that
Retreat
bridge
and
right
in
the
sidewalks
and
offering
Tree
Street
as
Dave
just
mentioned
upwards
of
17
feet
to
35
feet,
which
is
previously.
You
know
five
feet
the
open
space
there
will
be.
X
You
know,
supported
by
robust
retail
program
shown
in
that
light
purple
in
the
bottom
left
of
the
plan
to
really
bring
some
activation
to
this
public
Realm
on
the
next
slide.
Please,
the
two
top
images
that
represent
existing
disc
conditions
for
the
proposed
open
space
that
is
now
underneath
ever
Street
bridge
I'm,
currently
just
used
for
service
parking
and
looking
at
the
section
drawn
to
the
bottom
of
the
page,
you
know
every
Street
bridge
is
located
on
the
left
side
of
the
energy
building
no
proposed
voting
is
on
the
right
side
of
the
page.
X
The
the
open
space
will
feature
a
open
lawn,
a
plaza
with
a
series
of
platforms
that
provide
additional
steering
with
public
performance
opportunities,
pedestrian
connections
to
the
Everett
Street
bridge
and
a
dog
park.
Underneath
the
upper
tree
Bridge
itself
on
the
next
space
you'll
start
to
see
a
rendering
of
what
the
proposed
open
space
will
be
gone
from
Braintree
Street.
X
We
can
start
to
see
the
variety
of
space
types
that
are
going
to
be
offered
in
this
Plaza
that
we're
imagining
a
horse
Edge
along
the
the
building
facade,
knowing
the
right
center
image
rate
and
start
to
see.
You
know,
retail
just
going
out
into
the
summer
public
space
for
outdoor
seating
and,
in
the
the
background
of
the
MATC,
this
vast
vertical
Tower,
rising
up
connecting
to
the
bridge.
That
is
a
you
know,
accessible
elevator
that
will
bring
no
accessibility
connections
to
the
ever
Street
bridge
and
also
the
MBTA
rail
platform
on
the
next
slide.
X
Please.
This
represents
the
expander
program
that
is
now
posed
for
underneath
the
bridge
and
based
on
community
feedback
and
open
dog
park
was
an
open
for
a
program
type
for
the
neighborhood.
The
design
will
make
the
area
much
more
embedding
in
the
states
of
the
public
as
compared
to
the
current
no
underutilized
area
with
you
know
the
service
parking,
and
there
are
also
future
no
future
connections
to
Austin
yards
development.
X
To
really
make
this
a
vibrant
Edge
for
the
neighborhood
itself
at
the
next
page,
please
I
can
start
to
see
under
proposed
building
sitting
within
context.
So
the
the
topic,
let's
share
is
the
view
from
the
MBTA
platform,
the
upper
storage
of
building
they'll
really
step
back
considerably
on
the
western
edge
of
the
building,
and
this
creates
a
little
bit
more
of
a
you
know:
Splendor
profile
against
this
edge
of
the
building.
X
X
Masonry
type
elements
that
provide
the
forms:
the
natural
materials
with
a
lot
of
Rich
Detail,
no
vertical
glass
Outlets
are
introduced
in
a
further
breakdown
into
today's
order
phase
and
the
voting
officers
start
to
step
back
down
on
the
right
side
of
the
building.
That
way
that
responds
a
little
bit
more
to
the
therapan
context.
X
The
bottom
left
image
here.
You
know
you
can
really
start
to
see
how
that
public
space
will
really
provide
a
lot
of
new
life
to
this
area.
There's
a
generous
amount
of
open
space
that
connects
into
the
bridge
will
really
become
more
destination
to
bring
some
retail
and
active
use
along
this.
You
know
here
at
Braintree,
Street
the
building
will
be
no
committed
to
lead.
Gold
will
be
complied
for.
The
updated,
no
structured
energy
code
that
can
be
released
next
week,
it'll
be
PV
ready
and
be
designed
to
reduce
fossil
fuels.

33
yard
Street
in
Boston,
I
I,
don't
want
to
repeat
what's
been
said
and
largely
can
rely
on
the
details
in
our
written
appeal
just
very
quickly.
The
the
site
is
governed
by
the
Alston
Brighton
neighborhood
District
at
article
51
of
a
code,
it's
in
the
Braintree,
Street
li1
local
industrial
sub-district
and
is
outlined
in
our
appeal:
we're
seeking
relief
as
to
far
building
a
minimum
yard
setback
and
then
the
the
requirement
that
office
use.
BH
E
AP
D
I
can
speak
to
that
so
president
Scott
Cohen
and
SGA.
We
brought
them
both
in
together
to
to
work
on
the
design
of
the
project.
The
Preston's
backbone
is
not
here
today,
but
Scott's
been
working
very
closely
with
the
SGA
team
in
terms
of
the
shape
the
design,
the
the
mass
and
the
exterior
facade

Brian,
please
jump
in.

Yes,
Madam
Chairman's
the
board
Frank
Mendoza
here
again,
I'm
also
Brighton
liaison
from
Mayors
Office
of
Neighborhood
Services
we'd
like
to
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
the
board
at
this
time.
But
we
are
aware
that
the
ultimate
Association
sent
in
that
aforementioned
letter
approving
the
proposal
for
you
with
the
Proviso
that
the
all
three
existing
on-site
static,
Billboards,
be
permanently
removed
and
again
I
believe
their
president
Anthony
desidoro
is
present
and
has
his
hand
raised
to
speak
afterwards
as
well.
Thank
you

Good
afternoon
this
is
Marla
Creek
from
Council
Brady's
office.
Again
she
likes
to
go
on
the
record
of
being
in
support
of
this
project,
specifically
she'd,
just
like
to
call
out
the
improvements
from
the
public
realm
and
be
specifically
how
the
proponent
worked
with
the
mayor's
office
of
arts
and
culture
for
mitigation
for
this

Thank
you.

Yes,
good
afternoon,
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board
Tony
desidero,
representing
the
Austin
civic
association,
we're
very
excited
about
the
public
realm
improvements
taking
place
and,
of
course,
taking
down.
Those
Billboards
is
a
very
positive
step
forward
and
we
especially
are
very
grateful
for
the
consideration
given
to
the
honest
community
that
is
being
displaced
out
of
the
existing
building
as
a
result
of
this
project.
So
we
would
like
to
go
and
work
it
in
support.

This
is
hello,
yes,
yes,
we
can
hear
you
yes
hi.
This
is
at
110,
Melville,
Avenue
and
actually
the
I
have
our
architect,
Derek
Bloom
who's
actually
presenting
this,
and
it's
just
sending
a
message
that
he
doesn't
have
asked
this
to
be
media
presented
to
go
through
this
application.
A
Is
for
the
carriage
house
which
you'll
see
in
sunscreen
photos
is
in
a
state
of
advanced
collapse.
Our
proposal
is
to
reconstruct
it
moving
it
further
from
the
property
lines.
It's
currently
sort
of
three
feet
from
one
line
and
a
foot
from
the
other
one.
A
A
The
other
thing
we're
asking
for
is
to
occupy
this
growing
unit.
It's
currently,
as
you
can
tell
unoccupied
so
in
the
top
left
of
the
cycling
you
can
see
dashed,
is
the
proposed
location
in
the
whole
lines
of
the
system,
location.
A
So
left
and
right
is
existing
with
propose.
So
on
the
proposed
side,
this
would
be
the
living
level
of
main
level.
We
would
repurpose
all
three
barn
doors
on
the
front
to
be
we
reconstructed
and
used
as
storm
doors,
and
we
would
also
maintain
the
back
left
entrance
I'm,
going
to
start
revealing
to
become
a
side
entrance
to
a
mudroom.
A
Second,
floor
is
four
vents:
two
baths
laundry
and
a
stair
hole.
A
A
Let's
see
this
is
with
the
door,
is
closed.
You'll
see
all
the
front
door
is
still
there.
This
is
with
them
open
when
we
have
modern
windows
and
doors
with
glass
and
then
behind
the
strong
doors.
A
E
All
right:
let's
move
to
public
comments,
elected
officials.

Good
afternoon
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
Ross
Cochran,
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services.
The
applicant
has
completed
their
Community
process
at
this
time.
Our
office
held
in
a
Butters
meeting
in
what
I
believe
was
March
of
this
year,
and
it
was
very
well
attended
and
the
butters
were
mainly
curious
about
what
exactly
was
being
proposed,
but
all
agreed
pretty
much
something
needed
to
be
done.
Regarding
the
project
itself.
BJ

Good
afternoon
Madam
chair
members
of

board,
my
name

councilor,
Brian

in
regards
to
10
level

as
per
previously
stated,
they
met
with
the
association
and
they
received
a
letter
of
support
from
Melville
Park
Association,
as
well
as
that
from
the
Landmark
committee
as
well
with.
That
being
said,

like
to
go
in
support
of
this
case.

you.

I,
we
are
actually
commenting
on
boa
145-5955,
the
8486
Sherwood
Street,
okay,.
AT
Name
is
Dawn
Barrett
I
reside
at
19,
tremlett
Street,
the
carriage
house
butts
my
backyard.
AT
The
photos
that
they
have
of
the
carriage
house
is
not
up
to
date
and
from
my
yard
and
from
my
neighbor
York
neighbor's
yard.
It
is
completely
not
complete,
but
it
is
white
clean
in
the
middle
of
the
carriage
house
which
is
facing
us,
so
you
can
actually
see
into
the
carriage
house
from
our
view,
but
in
the
pictures
it
does
not
show
that
and
so
I'm
making
this
point
to
show
the
severity
of
this.
AT
This
of
of
the
damages
of
the
of
this
of
this
carriage
house,
it
is
falling
apart
and
I
I
have
pictures
if
it's
if
needed,
because
I'm
constantly
taking
pictures
a
lot
has
changed
from
March
of
this
year.
To
now
the
carriage
house
is
a
disaster,
and
it's
it's
just
time.
Only
time
will
tell
only
time
before
this
whole
thing
are.
You
are
you
in
support
of
this
I'm
in
support
of
it
but
I?
It
needs
to
be
addressed
immediately.
L
L
BI
You
can
hear
me
now:
can
you
hear
me
now?
Yes,
okay,
Joanne
Thompson
at
11,
trimless,
Street,
Dorchester,
I'm,
one
of
the
Butters,
and
also
an
officer
on
the
Medical
Park
Association.
The
association
is
in
support
of
it.
We
sent
a
notice
a
letter
to
that
fact.
However,
some
of
the
butters.
This
is
the
first
time
we're
hearing
the
changes
regarding
the
violations
and
there
has
been
concern
about
the
Carriage
House
in
terms
of
the
10
feet
and
the
20
feet.
So
there
are
some
of
the
some
of
these
supporters
are
online.
BI
There
are
two
of
them
who
are
in
support
of
the
10
feet
and
two
who
are
in
support
of
the
20
feet
and
I
think
what
their
understanding
is
is
that
they
wanted
the
property
to
be
moved
in
closer
from
their
lives
so
from
their
property
line.
They
wanted
more
moved
in
further.
At
this
point,
the
Tupelo
has
collapsed
and
there
is
a
tree
essentially
which
has
fallen,
and
it's
leaning
up
against
one
of
the
neighbors
friends.
So
I
think
what
the
about
is
really
concerned
about.
BI
Is
the
carriage
house
falling
onto
the
houses
on
tremlet
street
because
the
Carriage
House
sits
above
so
we
were
just
more
concerned
about
the
safety,
because
there
are
children
playing
in
The
Yards,
the
homeowners
yards
on
tremlet
Street.
This
Carriage
House
sits
above
the
houses
because
tremlet
street
is
a
Hillary
Street
and
as
these
homes
are
located
right
at
the
crest
of
the
Hill
The
Carriage
House
seems
to
be
sitting
up
on
a
cliff
light
and
the
tooth
alone
has
fallen
in
the
entire
back
is
gone
and
so
they're
really
concerned.
BM
Sure
my
name
is
Andrea:
I
live
at
21,
Tremont,
Street
I'm,
also
on
a
butter
and
just
wanted
to
say
again.
We
are
in
support
of
the
project
and
we
just
want
to
raise
concerns
around
some
of
the
things
that
have
been
brought
to
our
attention
through
the
ISD
violations
regarding
our
street
parking,
given
that
this
is
going
from
a
one
dwelling
unit
to
a
three
dwelling
unit.
This
project
is
now
making
the
main
house
of
two
dwelling
unit.
BM
The
setback
of
the
building,
the
the
other
thing
that
Butters
I,
have
raised
some
questions
about
is
making
sure
that
there's
enough
area
around
the
carriage
house
for
appropriate
Landscaping
that
would
include
the
removal
of
dead
trees
that,
as
Joanne
mentioned,
one
of
which
is
actually
already
down
and
very
unstable,
and
so
the
removal
of
trees
and
other
bushes
that
are
sort
of
impacting
the
area
around
the
carriage
house
to
be
replaced
with
appropriate
Landscaping.
That
would
provide
you
know,
perimeter,
privacy
and
Greenery.
A
Sure
it
would
be
okay
to
put
the
site
plan
back
up.
It
might
be
helpful,
so
it
is
definitely
collapsing
it's.
The
second
floor
has
come
down
into
the
first
floor.
So
there's
one
section,
but
it
was
my
second
floor
anymore.
Responsible
roof
triggers
animals
in
there
it's
not
really
safe
to
go
in.
So
none
of
us
really
know
the
extent
of
how
precarious
it
is.
I
would
say
it's
very
precarious.
A
We
have
one
additional
factor,
which
is
it's
a
nationally
historic,
National
enlisted
property.
Now
before
the
current
owners
purchased
it
it
was.
It
was
made
such
so
there's
there's
resistance
to
moving
the
carriage
house
too
much
from
its
traditional
historic
location,
on
the
lot
and
crowding
the
main
house,
so
the
20
feet
kind
of
moving
it
further
forward
becomes
very
proud
and
what's
the
relationship
to
the
main
house,
the
secondary
house
into
competition,
so
it
ten
felt
like
a
happy
medium
and
we're
hoping
four
capris.
A
Definitely
making
you
need
permission
to
do
this
stuff
to
kind
of
move
it
forward,
so
that
urgency
we've
heard
from
the
about
her
as
Infamous
civic
association
will
fully
sympathize
that
it's
it's
urgent,
but
we
can't
obviously
do
your
work
until
we
have
permission
so
we're
not
dragging
our
deals.
We
actually
have
simultaneous
processes
with
landmarks
and
Park
service
and
yourselves
on
an
emergency
basis
to
do
all
three
instead
of
one
after
the
other,
so
we're
doing
our
best
to
speed
it
up.
A
E
You
any
questions
for
the
board
or
comments
all
right,
I'll
entertain
a
motion.
M
Madam
chair
I'd
like
to
perform
a
motion
of
approval
with
bpda
design
review,
paying
special
attention
to
the
historical
context,
given
that
it's
in
the
neighborhood
design,
overlay,
district
and
I
also
want
to
recommend
to
get
an
emergency
demolition
kind
of
in
place
to
protect
the
abutters
property.
M
E
A
Proviso
right,
okay,
Miss
dong,
did
I
get
a
second
on
that
I'm.
AT
G
G
F
E
BN
F
F
K
E
BO
E
BN
Tell
us
what
you're
planning
to
do
so
on
this
project
here
we're
keeping
the
same
envelope
everything
basically
maintaining
the
same,
we're
adding
that
don't
wrap
on
the
in
the
Attic
level
on
the
left
side
there.
For
some
reason,
that
picture
was
a
little
blacked
out,
but
basically
I
think
the
big
thing
was
the.
BN
What
we
had
was
the
far
we
kind
of
end
up
keeping
that
the
same
as
well,
because
we
minimized
some
of
the
basement
space
to
cut
accommodate
that
Dormer
so
that
we
weren't
increasing
that
number
and
then
off
the
back
side.
We
were
adding
an
egress
off
that
second
level
of
the
top
Hubble
of
the
two
units
there,
so
I
think
that's
kind
of
where
we
got
a
little
bit
of
pushback
from
and
we
just
kind
of
had
to
come
through
the
fountain,
State
I
guess.
E
Y
Yes,
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
calling
anyone
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
So
this
time
the
mayor's
office
like
to
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
this
board
active
information,
the
community
process.
We
had
the
applicant
flyer
Butters
within
300
feet.
We
did
not
hear
back
any
concerns
they
also
reached
out
to
the
local
civic
association
were
in
contact
with
them
with
that
would
refer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
BP
BP
Yeah
I'm
concerned
about
this
project
in
strong
opposition,
I
I
believe
that
the
plans
are
incomplete
and
confusing,
really
don't
represent
or
match
the
scope
description
to
this
property.
BP
It's
not
clear
on
the
plans
that
submitted
with
their
existing
rear
internal
rear
staircases
that
are
clearly
being
removed,
and
then
edition
of
deck
spot
in
the
back
and
stares
off
to
the
slide.
BP
I
believe
aren't
an
issue
a
further
encroach
in
non-conforming
rear
yard
setbacks
we'll
leave
the
minimum
lot.
Width
is
currently
informing
min
eral
oxide
is
also,
as
is
the
current
rear
setback
before
this
proposed.
BP
With
this
proposal,
the
decks
stair
that's
intended
as
some
kind
of
egress
would
be
unprotected
and
those
also
approach
on
the
minimum,
rear
yard
setbacks.
I
Believe
by
this
expansion
of
the
envelope
and
square
footage
of
the
two
family
structure
that
off
street
parking
requirements
are
not
grandfathered.
There
is
currently
one
space,
there's
possibly
room
for
two
if
they're
stacked,
but
certainly
each
unit
will
not
be
able
to
get
to
parking
spaces.
Each
I
believe
that
the
plan
shows
some
floor
restructuring
that
isn't
mentioned
in
the
scope.
BP
Description,
as
is
the
infill
of
these
rear.
Stairs
I,
have
major
concerns
about
the
the
basement
that
at
least
as
it
currently
existed
was
accessed
by
both
units
through
an
internal
stair
down
to
the
basement.
An
uninhabited
space
I
believe
that
the
floor
area
ratios
are
non-conforming
and
extend
non-conformance
by
the
proposed
finishing
of
this
basement
area
that
is
Suspect
with
one
door:
access
from
the
rear
label.
BP
This
office
clearly
has
some
kind
of
living
space
and
a
full
bathroom
I
know
the
assessor's
office
does
not
always
get
it
right,
but
this
property
is
listed
as
a
as
a
total
of
four
bedrooms:
two
bathrooms
a
half
bath
and
one
parkings
and
clearly
The
Proposal,
extends
that
significantly.
This
is
a
very
ingested
tight
neighborhood
with
narrow
streets
parking
on
one
side
of
surrounding
streets.
We
have
significant
parking
issues
that
have
developed
and
worsened
over
the
years.
Okay,
okay,.
BP
Sure
so,
just
in
general,
I'm
in
opposition
to
this
and
I
believe
that
the
plans
don't
represent
the
scope
there,
and
this
project
has
been
abandoned,
open
to
the
weather
for
months
and
months
and
automatic
for
their
neighbor.
Okay.
Thank
you.
BL
Thank
you
good
afternoon.
This
is
Jane
and
I'm.
Speaking
from
my
husband,
Matt
veronis
we're
at
80
Sherwood
Street,
we're
direct
to
Butters,
we're
going
to
our
house
for
32
years.
There's
a
lot
of
communication
in
this
neighborhood
among
the
neighbors,
and
despite
what
the
representative
from
the
city
said,
we
have
received
no
communication
from
the
new
owner
since
the
house
was
purchased
since
the
stock
order
in
late
winter,
they've
been
looking
at
our
windows
and
piles
of
unsightly
construction
debris,
there's
a
gaping
hole
in
the
roof.
BL
With
a
torn
and
tattered
tarp.
That's
been
blowing
every
time.
There's
a
storm.
We've
observed
families
of
a
family
of
raccoons,
Climbing,
Up
and
Down
the
Walls
and
into
the
house.
Our
concerns
with
the
current
project
are
privacy.
The
new
proposed
large,
shed
Dormer,
looks
directly
into
our
bathrooms
and
bedrooms
on
the
second
and
third
floor.
We're
also
concerned,
as
Evan
mentioned,
with
an
increased
density
in
the
street
parking
Sherwood
street
is
a
narrow
curved
in
hilly.
BL
Street
and
traffic
is
also
a
concern
and
in
the
in
the
proposal
we
don't
see
any
mention
of
any
curb
appeal
improvements,
including
landscaping
and
facade.
The
appearance
right
now
looks
pretty
distressed,
so
we
are
in
opposition
to
this
project
as
it
currently
stands.
Thank
you.
L
BQ
Okay,
great
thank
you.
Martha
King,
23,
Garden,
side
street
I
live
directly
across
the
street
Madam
chairman
and
members
of
the
board.
Thanks
for
the
opportunity
to
comment.
I'll
try
to
do
this
as
quickly
as
possible.
I
feel
like
the
developer
is
really
minimizing
the
impact
and
scope
of
this
project.
BQ
It
is
I,
am
in
strong
opposition.
It
is
excessive
and
density
and
height
deficient
in
and
negatively
impactful
the
parking
Green
Space
and
privacy.
The
size
and
scope
of
this
project
is
not
only
inappropriate
for
the
parcel,
but
the
neighborhood
and
Beyond
the
scope
of
the
application
of
the
variants.
For
example,
it
doesn't
request
approval
to
finish
the
basement
and
add
an
outside
stairwell.
The
stock
work
order
was
issued
because
work
was
started
which
was
not
approved,
for
example,
for
the
Dormer
I'm
concerned.
BQ
What
other
items
might
be
attempted
to
sneak
in
the
project
and
the
developer
did
not
respect
the
neighborhood
when
the
property
was
purchased.
It
was
empty
for
quite
an
extended
period
and
during
that,
and
especially
since
the
stop
work
order
has
been
grossly
neglected,
there's
been
construction
debris.
Snow
removal
was
not
intended
to
is
raccoons
again
living
in
the
future.
It's
been
open
to
the
elements.
BQ
Again.
There
has
been
zero
effort
on
behalf
of
the
developer,
to
interact
with
the
neighborhood,
so
I
am
strongly
opposed
and
I
I
don't
know
if
this
is
allowed,
but
a
neighbor
who
was
not
able
to
attend
Sasa
Shockey
who
lives
right
behind
us
and
across
the
street
from
this
property
asked
me
to
convey
her
strong
opposition
as
well
right.
L
E
Yeah
I
mean
it
sounds
like
something
and
it
needs
to
happen
so
I
don't
know
that
deferring
it
solves
the
problem
that
has
been
raised
here.
BD
E
Miss
Don,
yes,
Mr
Stembridge,
yes,
Mr
Shepard,
yes,
Mr
Valencia;
yes,
Miss,
better
Barraza!
Yes,.
M
M
And
I
would
also
encourage
the
applicant
to
communicate
with
its
neighbor
and
to
try
to
solve
the
issues
that
were
brought
in
front
of
us.
E
Right
and
we
just
voted,
but
maybe
we
want
to
add
to
that
motion
if
we
can
no
building
code
relief.
E
We'll
leave
it
as
assume
the
bpda
will
handle
that
during
design
review.
Okay,
yeah!
Thank
you
all
right.
We're
getting
near
the
end.
F
E

no,
no.
We
did
that
one
I'm,
sorry
we're
on

all

Aldridge
right.
AV
Chair
and
fellow
board
members,
this
is
Joe
Federico
I
am
the
proponent
for
the
project.
I
have
a
business
address
of
70
Hastings
Road
in
Dedham,
Massachusetts
The
Proposal
is
for
a
seven
unit,
townhouse
building
on
a
lot
in
the
three
out
of
4
000
zoning
District
of
Jamaica
Plain.
Currently
there
is
a
single
family
house
on
the
site
which
will
be
raised
for
the
construction
of
this
building.
AV
The
project
has
taken
many
twists
and
turns
and
we're
finally,
here
presenting
in
front
of
you
with
a
project
that
has
been
wildly
accepted
and
supported
by
The
Neighborhood
I
have
Mike
McKay
here,
along
with
me
for
McKay
Architects
who's,
just
going
to
go
through
the
plans
for
the
project
I'm.
Pretty
briefly.
AV
If
Mike
is
not
here,
his
associate,
Robbie
Maybe
and
if
not
I
can
go
through
the
plans
pretty
quickly
too
yeah.
Why
don't
you
keep
going
okay?
So,
as
you
can
see,
this
is
the
parcel
right
here.
It's
roughly
a
little
over
18
000
square
feet.
We
have
a
driveway
on
the
right
hand,
side
which
is
off
of
school
street,
so
you'd
enter
on
the
right
hand,
side
of
the
property
go
down
the
driveway
and
we
have
seven
townhouses
side
by
side.
There's
a
total
of
16
parking
spaces.
AV
The
majority
of
the
units
have
at
least
two
parking
spaces.
Some
have
three
for
residents
or
residents
and
guests
of
the
residents.
AV
The
two
variances
or
violations
that
we
were
issued
was
the
first
for
a
multi-family
building
and
a
three
out
of
four
thousand
zoning
district
and
then
the
second
is
non-conformity
with
the
building
alignments
of
the
street
and
that's
just
because
the
building
is
recessed
back
on
the
lot
about
80
feet
in
order
to
provide
a
little
Green
Space
area
for
the
residents
of
the
building.
AV
This
was
something
that
was
suggested
by
the
neighbors
just
to
maintain
kind
of
the
front.
Look
of
the
lot
as
it
currently
stands.
There's
a
single-family
house
to
the
rear,
so
the
neighbors
are
used
to
just
having
the
front
yard
open,
and
so
that's
why
we've
pulled
this
building
back
as
far
as
possible
to
kind
of
preserved
that
Park
like
feeling
in
the
front.
AV
This
is
the
facade
right
here.
So
the
first.
The
top
image
is
the
image
that
you
would
see
from
school
street
and
then
the
second
image
there
would
be
the
image
if
you're,
looking
at
the
previous
page,
looking
standing
in
the
parking
area
and
looking
towards
the
building
room,
five
garage,
individual
garages
or
five
of
the
townhouses
and
then
the
first
two
would
just
have
surface
parking
spaces
inside
of
the
parking
lot,
with
a
total
of
16
parking
spaces.
AV
E
AV
Yeah
it's
so
we
actually
started
with
more
parking.
It
was
reduced
by
two
after
we
prevent
presented
this
project
in
front
of
the
Jamaica
Plain
neighborhood
Council,
that
area
in
the
front
yard
that
has
the
red
outline
Green
Space.
There
was
two
additional
parking
spaces
there,
which
we
had
removed
based
off
their
suggestion.
E
AV
Just
really
just
listening
to
the
concerns
of
the
neighborhood
that
the
neighbors
wanted
as
much
parking
as
you
could
fit
on
the
site,
while
still
maintaining
the
Green
Space
School
stream
is
a
pretty
congested
Street
as
as
many
streets
in
Boston.
This
development
is
directly
next
to
the
Mendel
school,
so
the
street
parking
directly
in
front
of
the
property
is
mostly
restricted
to
Bus
Parking
during
the
school
year,
and
so
we
really
try
to
keep
the
site
as
green
as
possible,
but
also
provide
parking,
because
it
was
just
a
big
concern.
I
believe
that
okay.
P
AV
Y
With
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services
this
time
the
mayor's
office
like
to
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
this
board
some
background
information,
the
community
process,
our
office
hosts
an
abutters
meeting
on
April
5th,
the
applicant
that
went
on
to
meet
with
the
Eggleston
Square
neighboring
Association,
where
they
were
approved
and
then
on
to
the
jdnc
zoning
committee,
which
was
also
approved
through
this
extensive
Community
process.
We're
unaware
of
any
opposition
with
that
would
refer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.

We
are
in
support
of
the
project,
the
we
usually
don't
support,
multi-families
on
a
one
to
three
family
Zone,
but
there's
a
very
big
lot.
The
house
that
was
there
before
had
been
vacant
and
neglected
for
several
years
when
the
longtime
owner
passed
away.
Part
of
the
agreement
with
the
neighborhood
is
to
preserve
the
landscape
area
at
the
front,
which
was
an
orchard
under
the
old
owner.
T
So
we
are
in
support
of
the
project.
Also,
the
far
on
that
lot
comes
out
close
to
the
one
to
three
family
lot
far.
So
that's
not
too
far
off.
Just
a
quick
note
regarding
the
parking.
We
did
ask
that
pavers
the
lot
is
long
and
narrow,
so
part
of
it
is
to
allow
turnaround
for
cars.
It's
a
shared
driveway
access
for
any
Vehicles
delivery
vehicles,
parking
for
delivery
vehicles.

Thank
you
good

Madam

My

Jacob

here
with
us
today,
as
Tanya
carrier
of
also
designed
the
project
architecture.
This
is
an
application
to
demolish
an
existing
sickle
story:
commercial
building
at
1439,
Tremont
Street
in
Mission,
Hill
and
I
write
a
new
four-story
row
house.
BR
Building
with
six
dwelling
units,
the
originally
proposed
front-facing
Paris
was
removed
during
the
community
process,
as
was
a
rear
deck,
and
the
plans
being
presented
today
reflect
those
changes.
This
lot
is
2024
square
feet
and
is
located
within
a
neighborhood
shopping.
Zoning
sub-district
on
this
section
of
Tremont
Street,
which
is
located
between
Parker
and
Bernie
streets,
very
close
to
the
Roxbury
Crossing
Rapids
transit
station.
BR
The
surrounding
neighborhood
is
mixed
use
with
very
strong
residential
components.
This
building
would
fill
a
gap
on
this
block
with
the
building
neatly
matching
the
height
of
buildings,
to
the
right
in
just
a
couple
feet
higher
than
the
row
house
buildings
on
the
left.
This
is
a
narrow
site
in
a
narrow
building
with
two
units
each
on
Floors
one
and
two
with
the
third
and
fourth
floors
accommodating
a
total
of
four
by
level
units
for
a
total
of
six
unit.
BR
One
is
a
484
square

a

3
is

a

two

units.
There
are
condenses
on
the
roof
with
the
head
house
providing
access
to
the
roof
for
maintenance
purposes.
Only
from
a
common
stairway.
BR
There's
only
violations
here
are
three
citations
for
a
conditional
use
which
is
related
to

in
a

shopping
sub-district
in
NS
sub
districts
here
under
the
Mission
Hill
zoning
Row
House
use
is
conditional
here.
The
existing
building
is
a
real
house,
as
are
all
other
buildings
on
this
side
of
the
street.
BR
This
proposed
far
is
consistent
surrounding
neighborhood,
particularly
on
this
side
of
the
block,
where
the
uses
are
all
as
I
mentioned,
Row
House
buildings
with
that
I'll
pause
and
take
any
questions
that
members
may
have.

Hello
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
Maggie
van
Squad
from
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
At
this
time,
we
would
like
to
defer
the
Judgment
of
the
board
be
held
in
a
Butters
meeting
for
this
proposal
on
October
4th.
The
applicant
also
went
before
the
Community
Alliance
in
Mission
Hill,
who
narrowly
voted
in
favor
of
the
project.
Although
there
were
concerns
about
outstanding
code
violations
at
the
applicant's
other
properties
of
the
city
when
I
understand
the
applicant
is
working
towards
all
those
cases,
we
are
unaware
of
any
other
concerns
at
this
time.

speaking
in

from
their

and

not
concerned
Neighborhood.
BO
Housing
Services
did
not
vote
on
the
project
and
support
or
opposition,
but
did
have
concerns
which
George's
client
has
addressed
in
providing
a
rodent,
resistant
or
rodent
proof,
not
Recycling
and
trash,
which
is
at
the
rear
of
the
property,
because
that
is
at
the
end
of
a
senior
affordable
housing
project
where
we're
concerned
of
the
rodent
activity
just
having
the
trash
there.
So
they've
they've
committed
to
a
rodent
proof,
trash
system,
sometimes
but
other
than
that,
basically
done
a
great
job
in
our
community.

M
E
Second,
thank
you:
Miss
Mr
Stembridge,
yes,
Mr
Shepard,
yes,
Mr
Valencia,
yes,
Miss,
pero,
Barraza,.
AK
E
All
right,
I
think
that's
our
agenda
for
the
day.
Maybe
the
board
members
can
stay
on.
We
can
everyone
else,
can
exit.
E
M
So
had
Javier,
this
is
open.
How
do
we
bring
forth
the
issue
that
we
brought
up-
maybe
nine
12
months
ago,
regarding
amount
of
cases
and
duration?
How
how
do
we
appropriately
do
that.
D
So
that
we
discussion
that,
if
people
wish
they
could
attend
later,
but
just
a
bit
of
notes,
but
all.
