A
D
You

got

D
H
D
N
Record
please
good
morning
my
name
is
George
morency
I'm,
an
attorney
with
the
business
address
at
350
West
Broadway
in
South
Boston,
chairman
members.
My
client
is
making
some
design
changes.
That's
going
to
require
an
additional
community
meeting.
I
would
like
to
ask
for
a
deferral
in
terms
of
timing.
I
guess
I'm,
not
sure
where
you
are
in
terms
of
the
agenda,
Mr
Fortune,
but
if
there
were
a
later
date
in
January
that
would
be
adequate.
We.
B
N
P
J
D
Hold
on
two
seconds
well
for
the
9
30
cases.
D
D
D
J
There
is
a
raised
hand.
One
second
David,
is
that
you
guess.
J
U
There
is
an
existing
at
Brick
L,
one
story,
L
along
the
party
line
of
the
back
of
the
building
that
was
in
in
disrepair,
and
it
had
an
illegal
roof
deck.
On
top
of
it,
we
propose
to
take
that
floor
area
of
that
one
story,
building
and
repurpose
that
space
across
the
back
of
the
building
in
order
to
make
it
across
the
the
rear
portion
of
the
structure.
B
U
They
actually,
they
are
not
excessive.
They
are
the
same
number.
The
review
last
review
the
L
had
been
demolished
because
it
was
in
bad
structural
shape
and
we
are
now
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
can
still
use
the
far
that
had
existed
prior
to
that
demolition.
B
B
U
House
yeah,
but
I
mean
how
there
I
one
door,
that
is
in
the
middle.
There.
B
So
it
opens
so
it's
not
so
it
opens
yeah
I'm
having
troubles.
Oh,
it's
a
it's
a
walkout.
B
V
No,
no,
no
questions.
I
know
there
was
some
concerns
raised
by
The
Neighbors
in
terms
of
water
runoff.
If
you
can,
please
describe
how
you're
mitigating
that
that
would
be
great.
B
Early
yeah,
yes,
let
me
get
to
that
in
a
minute.
I
just
want
to
do
the
drawings
first,
so,
okay,
Miss
Baraza,
that's
the
only
question.
You're
raising
correct.
V
Because
I
didn't
see
that
into
drawings,
okay,.
W
Yes,
I
am
Mr
chairman
good
morning,
members
of
the
board,
Christian
summerelli
Boston,
groundwater
trust,
and
we
have
both
letters
from
the
outlet.
The
recharge
system
will
be
designed
to
overflow
on
site
and
collect
the
roof.
The.
B
T
I
B
Miss
miado,
yes,
Mr
Ruggiero,
yeah
and
I
too,
okay,
so
the
groundwater
of
a
matter,
and
so
we
can
set
aside
any
other
questions
to
the
board
on
the
proposal
as
a
whole.
Y
Y
This
project
went
through
the
Beacon
Hill
architectural
commission
process,
so
they
fulfilled
Barrett
Butter's
meeting
requirement
through
that
process.
They
also
met
with
the
Beacon
Hill
civic
association
on
September
7th
and
that
organization
issued
a
letter
of
non-op
position.
B
The
civic
association
Maggie,
what
what
did
the
Beacon
Hill
historic
commission
say.
J
T
D
B
Then
I
think
of
the
Mr
agera's
motion
of
approval
by
itself
is
adequate.
Is
there
a
second
second
Mr
Fortune?
Yes,
yes,.
I
D
D
Z
Yes,
sir
good
morning,
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
Melissa
brochel
and
I'm
a
store
development
manager
for
insomnia.
Cookies
I've
worked
with
this
company
for
six
years
now
we
are
currently
a
20
at
228,
bakeries,
Nationwide,
that
we
are
requesting
a
conditional
use,
36-a
permit
for
takeout
use
for
our
retail
space
222
Clarendon
the
space
is
already
zoned
as
a
commercial
space
and
insomnia
plants
to
fit
out
this
base
with
our
design,
including
equipment,
restrooms
and
utilities
per
our
plans.
Z
The
Back
Bay
Area
has
we
all
have
other
locations
locally
within
the
debt
within
the
Boston
area,
we've
got
a
location
in
downtown
Boston
and
the
Harvard
area,
where
our
team
is
already
familiar
with
operating
under
City
protocols,
as
well
as
conditions
seven
days
a
week.
Currently
right
now
we
are
planning
to
have
our
operating
hours
from
anywhere
from
either
11AM
or
12
P.M
to
midnight
as
the
as
the
latest
hour
that
we
would
be
open.
We
have
currently
met
with
the
we
have
done.
Z
The
abutters
meeting
and
we've
met
with
the
Back
Bay
Association
and
the
as
far
as
delivery
cadences
are
concerned.
I
know
traffic
was
one
of
the
big
questions
that
was
initially
brought
up,
so
we
are
trying
to
utilize
like
delivery
as
frequently
as
possible
and
we're
trying
to
coordinate
with
our
third
party
delivery
companies
to
try
and
minimize
any
traffic
or
congestion
in
that
space.
Specifically.
So,
as
far
as
any
questions
from
the
board
I'd
be
willing
to
answer
anything,
you
have
okay,.
B
Z
B
Okay,
and
and
are
you
what's
in
the
space
now.
Z
Currently,
it
is
a
vacant
space,
it
was
a
fillover
space
from
La
Burdick,
previously
who's
our
neighboring
tenant.
They
had
space
in
there
previously
that
we
have
now
taken
possession
of.
Z
Z
Z
B
Okay,
so-
and
it
sounds
like
you-
have
plenty
of
experience
dealing
with
the
issue
with
takeout
correct.
B
All
right,
how
are
the
drawings
of
horizon
the.
B
Any
questions
on
the
board
is
anyone
here
at
the
speak
in
favor
or
opposition
of
those
proposed.
Yes,.
Y
Yes,
hello
again,
Mr
chair
and
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
Maggie
van
Schoen
from
the
office
of
Neighborhood
Services.
We
held
in
a
Butters
meeting
for
this
project
on
August
17th,
and
this
applicant
met
with
NAB
the
neighborhood
association
of
Back
Bay
on
September
12th,
and
they
issued
a
letter
of
non-op
position.
At
this
time.
Our
office
would
like
to
defer
to
the
judgment.
T
B
And
has
this
you
said
it
has
gone
to
the
Back
Bay
architecture
commission
already
or
is
not.
Z
A
Make
a
motion
to
approve
with
the
following
provisos
this
petitioner,
only
the
usual
take-out
provides
those
and
that
they
submit
their
signage
for
approval
by
The,
Back,
Bay,
architectural.
B
E
B
E
D
D
AA
I'm
joined
on
the
hearing
today
by
the
project,
architect,
PD
kernozan
and
Andrew
Pappas
on
behalf
of
the
ownership
The
Proposal
before
you
is
for
a
penthouse
and
accompanying
roof
deck
at
Nine,
West
Broadway
unit
618,
Nine,
West
Broadway
was
formerly
the
court
press
square
building,
and
this
building
and
its
sister
building
the
McClellan
building
were
converted
from
industrial
to
residential
use
back
in
the
early
2000s.
AA
At
that
time,
penthouses
with
accompanying
roof
decks
were
included
and
approved
in
the
pla
by
in
the
plans
by
the
city
for
all
top
four
units
of
Nine
West
Broadway.
Not
all
of
them
were
built
in
the
first
phase
of
construction
and
since
that
time,
at
least
two
have
gone
through
this
process
and
then
approved
back
in
the
2013-14
time
frame.
Currently
there
are
at
least
seven
of
these
originally
proposed
structures
existing
on
the
roof,
as
well
as
other
mechanical
superstructures.
AA
This
roof
deck
itself
will
be
built
to
match
those
that
are
existing
with
the
front
yard,
setback
of
five
feet,
a
side
yard
setback
of
three
feet.
The
penthouse
will
be
approximately
100
square
feet
and
the
deck
itself
will
be
approximately
740
square
feet.
The
building
roof
has
a
parapet
of
approximately
3.5
feet
which
shields
all
of
the
superstructures
on
the
roof
from
View.
AA
B
AA
So
I
believe
this
is
the
last
one
that
was
originally
approved.
I,
don't
know
the
exact
number
count,
but
there
are
about
six
that
are
private
and
there's
one
shared
roof
deck.
That
is
for
those
other
units
that
do
not
have
their
own
private
deck.
This
deck
will
be
a
private
deck
as
well,
so
this
should
be.
If
this
isn't
the
last
one,
there
is
there's
maybe
space
for
one
other,
very
small
one,
but
I
believe
this
to
be
the
last
one
chairman
is.
AA
Sir
they're
all
match
this,
this
access
route,
which
is
a
penthouse.
Yes,
sir,
okay,.
B
So
you
described
it
as
being
about
100
square
feet,
so
that's
really
is
that
room
for
anything
besides
the
the
access
itself
or
the
door
and
the
stairwell.
AA
I
think
it's
it's
tough
to
see,
but
on
the
screen
here
before
you,
you
see
those
green
structures,
some
of
those
vary
in
size,
but
that's
what
we're
talking
about
a
few
of
the
larger
ones,
the
Mechanicals
on
the
yeah,
so
that
one
there
is
that
that's
on
the
on
the
more
zoomed
in
one
the
the
this
Penthouse
will
be
smaller
than
that
I
think
it'll
it'll
just
be
where
it
sort
of
drops
off
there.
The
okay
you
have
the
architect
on.
If
you
need
more
specifics
on
that
all.
V
The
drawings
are
adequate.
I
I
did
notice
that
some
of
the
penthouse
have
slope
proof,
but
this
one
seems
like
it's:
it's
just
flat.
B
Okay,
so
that
may
be
something
we
would
want
to
and
and
from
the
view
from
the
street
Mr
Regan
you're,
saying
that
all
these
penthouses
between
the
pyramid,
parapet
and
the
angle
are
not
visible,
not.
AA
Visible
from
the
street
well
nor
any
residential
there's,
no
direct
residential
Butters,
but
across
West
Broadway
or
Dorchester
Avenue.
There
are
some
residences,
but
the
the
this
building
is
taller
than
those.
So
they
can't
be
seen
from
those.
There
is
a
the
tall
hotel,
that's
about
14
stories
and
from
those
higher
floors
you
would
be
able
to
see
onto
the
roof.
But
that's
the
only
vantage
point
that
would
allow
that
it
is
shielded
from
from
you
from
the
locker.
AB
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
Connor
Newman
with
the
mayor's
office
neighborhood
services.
At
this
time,
our
office
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board,
to
back
our
information
on
the
community
process.
Owen
has
held
my
Butters
meeting
for
unit
618
on
September
13th,
the
proponent
answered
all
questions
and
one
of
butter
Express
their
support.
The
applicant
then
went
on
to
the
West
Broadway
neighborhood
association,
where
no
objections
to
the
proposal
were
raised
with
that
we
refer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.

impact

For
years,
however,
this
site
lies
outside
of

On

this
is
a

This
is
a
proposal
to
change
the
occupancy
from
a
one
family
in
a

to
a
two

along
with
a
rare
addition,
which
will
add
approximately
a
total
of
340
square
feet
of
new
space
for
unit
one
and
two
floors.
I.
Think
at
this
point
it's
worth
noting
that
this
property
has
been
taxed
as
a
two
family
since
1987
and
has
been
operated
as
an
existing
two
family
as
well.
The
proposed
design
is
staying
within
the
footprint
of
the
building
above
the
first
floor.
New
decks
will
be
added
in
the
rear.
AC
With
the
new
code
compliance
there
to
grade
from
all
levels,
the
existing
rear
egress
will
be
removed
due
to
lack
of
Code
Compliance.
This
proposal
is
located
within
an
MFR
sub
District.
We
were
cited
for
five
violations.
Open
space
code
requires
200
square
feet
per
unit.
Our
proposal
actually
calls
for
450
square
feet,
which
negates
this
violation
side
yard
setback.
We
were
cited
for
again.
This
is
a
pre-existing
at
the
footprint
of
the
building
is
not
changing.
Three
feet
is
required
by
the
code
and
the
proposal
calls
for
zero
feet
as
it
is
existing.
AC
The
addition
is
approximately
one
foot
on
the
left
side
and
four
feet:
five
inches
on
the
right
hand,
side
the
rear
yard
citation
from
the
proposed
Edition.
We
are
approximately
20
feet
from
the
lot
line
to
the
dwelling,
but
from
the
rear
deck
and
the
stairs
we
are
less
than
the
required
20
feet.
Code
requirement
at
approximately
12
feet
the
rear
yard,
as
you
will
notice,
a
driveway
that
contains
off-street
parking
in
the
neighbor
in
that
property.
Additional
lot
area
was
insufficient.
AC
Code
allows
for
2
000
square
feet
for
the
first
unit,
a
thousand
for
each
additional,
and
our
proposal
is
at
1160
square
feet
as
it
is
existing
unit
one.
As
you
will
see,
it
will
consist
of
the
garden
level,
which
is
a
walkout
level.
In
the
first
floor,
the
the
actual
slope
decrements.
As
you
go
from
D
Street,
going
to
the
rear
of
the
property.
AC
It
will
be
a
one
bedroom
in
a
den
as
it
is
existing
a
one
bedroom,
but
it
will
give
it
the
additional
space
of
down
on
the
garden
level.
Bed
is
located
on
the
first
floor,
then,
will
be
located
on
the
garden
level.
It's
approximately
about
a
thousand
eight
square
feet
unit.
Two
as
it
stands
is
an
existing
three
bedroom.
AC
B
So
it's
described
as
currently
one
store
one
family
and
that
you
want
to
change
to
a
two
family
is:
has
there
been
a
store
there?
Has
it
been
lived
in
as
a
two
family,
so.
AC
It's
it's
been
operating
and
lived
in
as
a
two
family
since,
as
assessing
department
has
assessed
it
since
1987.
I,
guess
historically,
after
speaking
to
the
Civic
group
members,
I
guess
somewhere
down
the
line.
Maybe
50
years
ago
there
was
a
previous
storefront,
but
clearly
that
somewhere
on
the
jacket
that
it
was
converted
over
to
a
residential
at
some
point
in
time,
but
you
know
probably
before
I
was
even
born
but
again
yeah.
So
it's
it's
been
operating
as
a.
B
B
And
and
the
you
said,
the
the
garden
level
unit
is
a
walk
out
in
the
rear.
What's
the
what
what
is
the
Florida
grade
height
in
the.
AC
AD
Yeah
at
the
front
street
level,
you're
asking
or
she's
outside
it's
about
three
and
a
half
feet
at
the
front.
If
you
look
at
the
plans
on
the
inside
of
the
building
at
the
Garden
level,
that's
a
utility
space,
it's
at
the
rear,
where
we
have
more
height
that
we
can
provide
windows.
So
that's
the
side,
that'll
be
the
the
den
so.
E
B
And
when
you're
talking
about
the
rear
yard,
insufficiency
you're
saying
that
that
was
triggered
not
by
the
building
the
addition
Itself
by
the
deck
correct.
AE
B
AB
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
Connor
Newman
with
the
mayor's
office
Neighborhood
Services
this
time
our
office
like
to
defer
to
the
judgment
to
the
Judgment
of
the
board
some
background
information
on
the
community
process,
ons
held
in
the
butters
meeting
on
September
12th.
There
were
some
questions
from
Butters
about
the
history
history
of
the
property,
which
is
the
proponent
answered,
fully
no
further
concerns,
and
at
that
we've
been
afraid
of
the
board.
Thank
you.
S
AF
B
B
All
right
and
Mr
Hero
seconded
Mr
Fortune,
yes,
Miss
Dawn,
yes,.
I
D
Doa-136-3952-584-586
East
Broadway:
this
is
an
interior
renovation,
existing
commercial
and
residential
space,
occupancy
change
from
one
commercial
unit,
yoga
studio
and
two
residential
units
to
two
commercial
units:
One
Yoga,
Studio,
One
body,
odd
establishment
and
two
residential
units
and
increase
the
living
space
in
the
residential
unit
violation.
Article
68,
section
7,
a
body
odd,
establish
use
system
naming
address
for
the
record.
Please.
AC
So
from
from
that
enhancement,
specialty
is
what
triggers
it
to
be
considered
a
body,
art
establishment.
So
again,
I
just
want
to
make
it
clear
for
the
record.
This
is
not
a
tattoo
power,
as
mentioned
in
the
record
additional
living
space
in
the
residential
units.
Those
plans,
our
plans
in
front
of
you
today
do
not
call
for
such
as
it
was
originally
contained
in
the
proposal
which
was
abandoned
so
again.
This
is
just
specifically
for
the
change
of
occupancy
in
the
lower
level
and
that's
where
the
focus
is
going
to
be
now.
AC
There's
proposal
is
in
a
zoning
sub
District
of
a
multi-family
residential
local
local
Services.
The
building
consists
of
a
lower
level,
which
is
a
walk
out
on
the
rear
of
the
property
located
on
Emerson
Street
in
the
rare.
A
first
floor
yoga
studio,
which
is
accessed
on
East
Broadway
and
two
residential
units
on
Floors,
two
and
three.
The
change
of
occupancy
to
include
the
eyebrow
Salon,
will
specifically
be
located
on
the
basement
floor
or
the
lower
level
floor.
AC
At
some
point
in
time
there
have
been
an
occupancy
for
a
nail
salon
somewhere
along
the
years
after
looking
at
the
jacket,
the
nail
salon
was
reviewed
removed
from
that
occupancy.
This
is
the
portion
of
the
building
which
will
have
a
full
interior
renovation
for
the
layout
of
the
eyebrow
salon.
AC
As
you
can
see
from
the
drawings,
the
square
footages
will
all
remain
the
same.
The
lower
level
where
the
beauty
salon
will
be
located
will
be
1192
level.
One
will
continue
to
be
13,
20
square
feet,
level,
two
would
be
844
square
feet
and
level
three
will
be
still
at
740
square
feet
at
this
point
in
time,
we've
got
to
open
it
up,
for
you
know,
questions
from
the
board.
AC
Correct
I
don't
dating
back
years
ago.
There
was
you
know
there
were
formerly
two
commercial
units
because
they're
fully
accessed
from
Emerson
Street
that
commercial
unit,
then
the
second
commercial
unit
which
is
located
on
the
level
one
is
accessed
via
East
Broadway
and
at
some
point
in
time
it
was
just
completely
entirely
dropped
from
the
jacket
that
it
was
only
the
yoga
studio
and
the
two
residential
units.
So
now
they're
converting
back
over
to
allow
a
commercial
use
in
there.
You
know
for
that.
AC
It's
been
hasn't
been
used
or
occupied,
as
of
now
I
think
it's
just
mostly
has
been
like
storage
again,
you
could
see
from
the
existing
condition
and
the
drawings
that
it
had
like
a
layout
to
showing
like
there
was
some
sort
of
like
Salon
area.
If
I
was
to
to
look
at
a
salon,
type
establishment
is.
AC
Relationship
it's
above
grade
so
so
on,
East
Broadway,
you're
above
grade,
and
then
it
substantially
drops
when
you
get
onto
the
rear
of
the
property,
but
at
Mission
Street.
The
adjoining
abutting
neighbors
also
have
complete
entire
walkouts
of
their
property.
B
Okay,
but
but
it
has,
it
has
oh
yeah
I'm
looking
for
elevations
to
show.
Is
there
anything
that
shows
the
elevation
of
the
lower
level
right.
AG
E
B
Right,
Miss
Peraza:
how
are
the
drawings
the.
V
Drawings
are
adequate.
Can
you
talk
about
accessibility
for
that,
for
that
unit.
AC
V
And
I
see
I,
see
stairs
I
see
stairs
at
least
two
riders
in
the
interior.
So
it's
not
accessible.
The
unit
is
not
accessible.
Okay,.
X
So
currently
it's
being
used
as
a
hair
salon
and
and
they're,
and
it's
and
it's
if
you
scroll
up
to
the
demo
plan
right
when
you
walk
in
off
the
street
they've
got
about
a
five
foot,
deep
area
that
that's
at
a
bad
grade
and
then
it
steps
down
to
all
the
to
all
the
each
of
the
individual
hair
cutting
areas.
X
X
Just
yep,
so
we
have
room
on
along
the
right
side
there
right
when
you
walk
in
the
door
to
add
a
stair.
Sorry,
a
a
chair
lift
along
the
stair,
but
but
again
today
there
isn't
any
access.
Okay,
great!
Thank
you.
E
B
AB
Yes,
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
Connor
Newman
with
the
mayor's
office
Neighborhood
Services
our
office,
held
in
the
butters
meeting
for
this
proposal
on
August
31st
concerns
were
raised
by
Butters
about
the
impact
of
development
of
East
Broadway
on
small
residential
streets
like
Emerson
Street
concerns
were
also
raised
about
the
increased
noise
in
the
neighborhood
and
about
adding
more
bedrooms
in
the
neighborhood.
Without
adding
more
parking
lot,
ears
did
not
want
any
roof
decks
on
the
property.
AB
B
S
E
D
J
Has
the
petitioner
on
for
this
project?
Can
you
raise
your
hand?
Okay,
rich
I'm,
just
gonna
make
you
a
panelist
a
second
okay
and
then,
if
you
can
unmute
yourself
again
and
just
state
your
name
and
address.
T
AG
Rich
Rollin
198,
West
Broadway
I,
am
the
owner
of
the
the
company
that
is
moving
in
and
renting
the
commercial
space.
Okay.
AG
Yeah
so
we're
taking
a
a
vacant
salon
for
more
than
two
years
and
converting
it
to
a
fitness
facility
that
would
enhance
the
neighborhood
and
basically
taking
the
1200
square
feet
that
we
have
available
and
just
redesigning
the
inside
a
little
bit.
Nothing
I,
don't
think
anything
structurally
has
changed
with
the
building.
B
What
kind
of
fitness
facility
are
you
proposing
and
what
will
the
hours
of
operation
be.
AG
Sure
so
we're
proposing
a
24-hour
fitness,
which
would
have
a
scam
code
out
on
the
door
for
valid
numbers
to
use
their
phone,
which
is
connected
to
a
membership
to
allow
access,
24
7..
So
much
like
a
lot
of
other
Boutique
gyms.
They
have
limited
hours
and
I
feel
like
it
is
a
disadvantage
for
people
that
are
paying
for
a
full-time
membership.
B
Will
there
be,
is
there
like
a
the
reception
desk
or
a
security
desk,
or
will
there
be
staff
there?
Is
it
strictly?
Everybody
comes
in
on
their
own.
AG
B
Okay
and
any
changes
to
the
exterior.
AG
AG
Sir
already
approved
and
we're
just
waiting
on
a
designer
to
finish
the
project.
Okay,.
AG
AB
Since
then,
we've
received
a
lot
of
positive
feedback
on
the
meeting.
There
were
two
Butters
to
express
support
and
one
about
her
who
had
some
reservations,
but
we
understand
that
the
applicant
has
continued
to
work
with
that
family
we've
received
seven
letters
of
support
from
South
Boston
residents
and
the
proponent
had
a
positive
meeting
with
the
Saint
Vincent
lower
end
neighborhood
association.
With
that
we
defer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
Mr.

I
I
D
Follow
your
next

calling

AH
Oh
I'm,

I,
propose
to
change
my
single
family
to
two
family
by
adding
removing
walls
and
doors
I'm
going
to
add
a
kitchen
on
the
second
floor
and
then
have
a
spiral
staircase
off
of
that
kitchen.
The
first
floor
is
proposed
to
be
686
square
feet
and
the
second
floor
is
proposed
to
be
1273
square
feet.
B
Okay,
so
you're
you're,
basically
taking
a
single
family
and
you're
dividing
it
up
into
two
two
units,
one
of
which
is
680
square
feet.
Is
that
what
you
said
yeah.
AH
B
Bedrooms:
okay,
but
there's
no,
but
there's
no
changes
at
all
to
the
exterior
of
the
building.
No.
AH
B
See
it's
ready
and
are
you
the
owner,
I
am
the

I
mean
I'm,
sorry,

to

Adams
Street
in
Dorchester
within
one
at
5000
zoning
sub-district
under
article
65,
the
Dorchester
neighborhood
zoning
District
29
units
will
be
served
by
29
garage
parking
spaces
as
well
as
ample
bicycle
storage.
N
The
lot
size
here
is
approximately
17
396
square
feet
and
is
currently
occupied
by
a
single
story:
commercial
building
with
Warehouse
or
construction
equipment,
and
a
former
single
story
dwelling
building
which
is
currently
unused.
This
is
the
site
of
rental
Boston,
which
has
been
offer
in
operation
here
for
decades.
Much
of
the
site
is
currently
deeply
excavated
to
the
rear.
N
The
surrounding
neighborhood
consists
of
a
range
of
building
types
and
Architectural
styles,
with
a
mix
of
residential
commercials
and
some
industrial
units.
The
project
will
still
include
29
on-site
garage
parking
spaces.
Despite
that,
access
to
Transit
the
spaces
in
the
garage
would
be
accessed
by
our
garage
entrance
on
Adams
Street
through
the
replacement
of
the
current
commercial
use
and
its
Associated
vehicular
traffic
will
allow
for
the
closure
of
approximately
30
feet,
of
existing,
curb
cut
on
Adams
Street,
making
for
a
better
and
safer
pedestrian
environment
and
also
reducing
the
opportunity
for
a
vehicular
conflicts.
AE
N
Ample
security
or
resident
bicycles
will
be
provided
on
the
first
floor
with
direct
access
from
the
bike.
Storage
room
to
access
breed
and
visited
by
parking
spaces
will
also
be
provided
in
compliance
with
the
city
of
Austin's
bike
policy.
With
respect
to
this
building
well
zones,
one
at
five
thousand.
The
project
is
located
in
an
area
which
transitions
from
lower
density,
housing
to
the
east,
higher
density
and
mixed
use.
Developments
as
Adams
Street
approaches,
Baker
Square,
the
variance
is
required
for
the
multi-family
use.
N
The
proposed
Moby
family
use
is
not
inconsistent
with
developing
land
use
patterns
in
this
area.
To
the
left
of
the
site
is
a
four-story
multi-panely
building
approved
by
this
board
in
2017
with
another
multi-family
to
the
left
of
that,
and
to
the
right
and
rear
of
the
site
are
the
facilities
of
the
sheet
metal
workers.
Union
relief
is
required
from
off
street
parking
and
loading
requirements,
as
I
say,
the
parking
ratio
here
is
one
to
one
which
is
still
less
than
required
by
zoning
but
appropriate
for
new
residential
development
in
this
area.
N
The
far
is
a
proposed
2.3,
while
zoning
allows
for
0.5
relief
is
also
required
for
the
building
height,
which
is
55
6
inches
to
the
top
of
that
setback.
Fifth
Story
well
35
feet
and
two
and
a
half
stories
are
allowed
by
code,
there's
also
a
rear
yard
setback.
Insufficiency
40-foot
setback
is
required,
while
a
setback
of
just
under
10
feet
is
provided.
It
should
be
noted
that,
to
the
immediate
rear
of
the
site
is
parking
area
for
the
Local
17
training
center
and
Local
17
has
submitted
a
letter
and
strong
support
of
the
project.
N
B
All
right,
thank
you,
Mr
Marantz,
that
was
very
comprehensively
basically
answered.
Most
of
the
questions
that
I
have
so
this
is.
These
are
condos
correct.
That
is
correct.
Okay,
and
could
you
once
again
say
what
the
percentage
of
affordable
units
is.
N
The
affordability
comes
out
at
17,
so
that
is
an
extra
unit
that
my
client
is
providing.
Okay.
N
J
Here's
one
second
Cheryl
go
ahead
and
send
a
request:
I
meet
you.
F
Thank
you,
Cheryl
tugais
of
Spalding
tagayas
Architects,
with
the
business
address
of
46
Waltham
Street,
the
one
bedrooms
range
in
size
from
about
you
go
to.
If
you
could
go
to
the
sheet
that
has
the
typical
fourth
and
fifth
floor.
That
would
be
helpful
if
this
shows
the
tip
with
one
more
floor.
Thank
you
so
800
square
feet.
There's
a
755
square
foot.
One
bed
and
the
two
beds
go
up
to
1240
square
feet
and
there's
one
bed
on
this
floor
in
the
lower
left
corner
unit
number
seven,
which
goes
down
to
665.
F
B
Thank
you
with
respect
to
the
neighborhood
contacts.
So
you've
got
you've
got
a
it's
a
one
f
one
f5000
District,
but
you
have
for
decades
a
commercial
use
in
that
space.
Correct.
That's.
N
Correct
Mr
chairman
this
is
the
rent
all
site
again
almost
an
18
000
square
foot
site,
which
I
guess
could
be
characterized
as
commercial
industrial,
yeah.
B
So
and
as
our
as
I
think
I
recall,
when
I
looked
at
this
initially
as
you're
facing
it
to
the
right
there's
relatively
small
residential
neighborhood,
but
to
the
left
there,
as
you
put
it
there's
there
are
similar
multi-unit
buildings
already
in
place.
Is
that
correct.
N
Correct
it's
it's!
It's
right
on
the
the
generous
edge
of
a
transition
zone
as
as
as
Adam
Street
goes
down
into
Baker
Square.
B
A
generous
Edge
I
like
that:
okay,
all
right,
Mr
Baraza.
How
are
the
drawings.
V
Mr
chair,
the
drawings
are
adequate
and
do
you
have
a
do?
You
know
by
any
chance
how
many
units
are
in
one
one,
five:
seven,
which
is
the
property
to
the
right
and
then
how
many
units
are
at
1173,
which
is
adjacent
to
you
to
the
left.
So.
N
AE
Yes,
Mr
chairman
I,
just
had
one
question:
is
the
access
of
egress
to
the
parking
area
at
the
rear
of
the
sidewalk.
AE
The
reason
why
I'm
asking
is
because,
if
it
is
we're
going
to
need
an
audio
and
visual
alarm
to
one
the
pedestrians
of
oncoming
traffic
exiting
the
the
parking
area.
N
The
the
the
driveway
Mr
D'amico
does
across
the
sidewalk
area,
and
if
that
is
a
concern,
you
know
that's
absolutely
something
that
that
my
client
would
would
be
happy
to
do.
Okay,.
B
Right,
it's
anyone
here
to
offer
proper
testimony
on
the
project.
Yes,.
AB
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
Connor
Newman,
with
the
mayors
of
class
neighborhood
services
at
the
Santa
Mayors
Office,
like
to
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
the
board.
We
heard
a
mix
of
opinions
from
the
community
regarding
this
project.
Some
members,
such
as
Local
17,
have
written
in
support,
given
that
the
proponent
has
added
additional
affordable
unit
as
well
as
promised
Community
benefits.
Many
other
residents
also
have
written
opposition,
believing
that
the
structure
is
Too,
Tall
and
too
dense
for
that
site.
AB
AI
Councilor
Murphy
here
I
am
here
to
voice
my
I'm
in
support
of
this
project,
so
I
want
to
go
on
record
for
being
in
support.
I
was
at
the
Lower
Mills
meeting
when
this
was
brought
up
several
times,
but
especially
the
last
one.
So
I
have
heard
the
concerns
in
the
neighborhood,
but
have
also
met
with
the
developers
and
feel
like
overall,
this
is
going
to
be
a
good
project
and
they're
addressing
the
concerns
from
The
Neighbors
in
a
in
a
very
professional
way.
So
please
put
me
on
record,
as
in
favor.

AM
AM
The
current
proposal
modification
will
now
change
the
parking
number
and
the
footprint
of
the
driveway
currently
accommodates
two
cars,
which
is
the
number
of
residents
in
house.
This
proposal
will
not
change
the
footprint
of
the
house,
and
we've
only
had
the
square
footage
of
what
it
is.
There.
B
So,
in
other
words,
in
other
words,
what
you're
proposing
is
to
take
an
existing
garage
at
score
and
turn
it
into
living
space,
correct.
AM
AM
No
square
footage
adding
we're
not
adding
any
square
footage.
I
mean
we're,
not
changed
the
house
plan.
We.
B
Just
have
it:
no,
no,
no,
no
you're
right,
you're,
definitely
adding
you're
building
a
two
and
a
half
story:
Edition
right,
you're,
adding
square.
B
Oh!
Okay!
That's
what
it
says
in
the
in
the
posting,
but
all
right,
okay
and
Miss
Ross
said:
there's
no
indication
of
additional
Living
Spaces.
B
But
okay,
do
you
have?
Is
there
an
elevation
of
the
proposed
Edition.
B
B
B
So
you
said
that
the
that
the
this
little
structure
was
too
yeah
there
we
go.
That's
fine.
The
instructor
is
too
small
to
park
in
the
car,
so
you
drive,
the
existing
driveway
is
being
used
for
two
cars
side
by
side.
Now.
B
Okay,
but
I
mean
this
is
actually
the
existing
Arrangement
is
front
yard
parking,
but
you're
not
proposing
the
change
that
all
right.
Well,
we'll
have
to
think
about
that.

current
site

of
an
existing
non-conforming
four-family
structure
within
a
one
F
5000

This
is
a
proposal
to
change
the
occupancy
from
four
units
to
eight
units,
while
preserving
the
existing
three-story
structure
in
adding
a
new

The

AC
Am
I
ready

great!
Thank
you.
The
applicant
has
committed
voluntarily
to
enter
into
an
affordable
housing
agreement
with
the

to
offer
one
unit
as
affordable.
That
unit
has
been
has
been
identified
as

at
a

there'll
be
a
total
of
12
parking
spaces.
Five
parking
spaces
will
be
located
underground,
as,
as
you
can
see,
from
the
plans,
there'll
be
garage
parking
there
and
seven
outdoor
spaces
where
there
is
existing
front
yard
parking.

This
is

with
a
total
of

of

AC
AC
Height
is
under

at
is,
Building
height
is
under

we
were
cited
for
the
existing
non-conforming
of
the
three

from
what
was
required
as

2.5
stories,

we're
proposing

we're

AC
T
B
A
four
unit
building
on
a
1f
District
correct,
yes,
and
you
are
looking
to
expand
that
to
eight
units,
correct.
AC
Yes,
as
you
see
aesthetically
in
the
surrounding
neighborhood,
there
are
many
other
multi-family
homes
on
the
left
and
on
the
right
hand,
side
and
including
in
the
rear
and
I
believe,
that's
approximately
about
28
units.
If
I
am
correct,.
B
AC
Group
I'm
gonna
have
to
defer.
So
let
me
see
if,
if
Mark.
K
Hi
everybody
Mark
sanjola
architect,
it's
four
units
on
the
right
and
I
believe.
Is
it
six
or
eight
on
the
left?
I,
don't
remember,
and
the
other
thing
about
this
property
is
that
it's
kind
of
like
money,
apartment
Street
and
it's
set
down
from
the
from
Kendrick
behind
a
retaining
wall.
So
it's
kind
of
like
a
little
isolated
area
on
its
own
and
behind
that
is
a
quite
extensive
parking,
complex.
B
B
Now,
yes,
okay,
is
there
a
given
that
it's
in
neighborhood,
where
people
are
concerned
about
a
lot
of
kind
of
College
under
students
undergraduates?
Who,
who
is
what's
the
demographic
of
the
the
marketing.
AC
Brian
I'm
going
to
have
to
defer
to
you
as
the
applicant.
You
could
probably
give
us
a
little
bit
more
information
as
far
as
the
marketing.
B
Okay,
well,
while
we're
doing
that
Miss
Peraza,
how
are
the
drawings.
V
Would
like
to
hear
Jeff
Hampton's
review
of
the
project,
because
it
is
accurate
that
it
is
almost
on
its
Silo,
like
it's
very
separated
in
regard
to
the
residential
fabric.
So
I
would
love
to
hear
Hampton's
review
on
this
as
well.
Okay,.
V
No,
no
because
it
it's
very
it
Almost
Doesn't
Really,
contribute
to
the
public
life
or
sidewalk,
because
it's
kind
of
the
measuring
kind
of
edging,
that
is,
that
exists
in
front
of
the
property.
Okay,.
L
B
Yeah
I
mean
from
the
train
of
them
yeah,
okay,
before
we
get
to
any
other
questions
on
the
board,
is.
H
Thank
you,
Mr
chairman
members
of
the
board,
Jeff
Hampton
bpda.
We
recommended
denial
without
prejudice.
We
believe
that
they
already
have
adequate
use
of
the
property
as
a
four
family
within
a
one-family
District.
We
understand
that
they
have
committed
through
the
process
to
have
one
of
these
units
as
an
affordable
unit.
H
However,
going
from
four
to
eight,
we
think
that
the
proposal
is
excessive.
B
Okay
and
I
mean
all
right
and
is
that
in
in
regard
to
Ms
Perez's
comments?
Is
that
site
related
or
is
that
you
just
think?
That's
just
too
big
a
jump
too.
H
B
Right
is
there
anyone
here
to
testify
in
favor
or
an
opposition
of
The
Proposal.
AP
Yes,
good
morning,
Mr
chair
members
to
the
board
Frank
Mendoza
here,
Austin
Brighton
liaison
for
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services,
here
to
testify
that
we
had
some
of
Butters
in
opposition
on
the
basis
of
the
rear
setback.
Some
concerns
about
line
of
sight
being
blocked,
but
there's
also
had
concerns
about
density
as
well.
AP
D
AQ
Chair
members
of
the
board,
Annabelle
gumps
from
the
Brighton
Austin
approval,
Association
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
and
support
the
the
project
is
set
back
from
the
street.
It
isn't
visible.
The
only
thing
you'll
be
able
to
see
is
the
current
peak
of
the
house.
The
house
is
in
District
Fair,
so
this
developer
has
been
known
to
restoring
the
properties
to
the
original
standard
and
actually
beautifying
it.
So
we're
comfortable
with
that.
They
will
restore
the
original
house
and
the
addition
in
the
back
is
actually
not
really
visible
to
anybody.
AQ
It
backs
up
to
the
trees
behind.
Is
it
the
Kenrick
Apartments?
So
it's
not
really
that
visible.
So
it
won't
impact
the
street
view
of
any
changes.
The
parking
in
the
front.
It's
not
street
parking,
it's
it's
a
private
road
back
there,
it's
shoveled
by
the
owners,
not
by
the
city
and
it's
not
visible
from
the
street.
So
there
is
no
impact
on
this
on
the
community.
AQ
V
B
Okay
and
yeah
and
I
think
the
bbda
design
review
should
really
kind
of
Ms.
Gomes
comments
were
helpful
and
in
terms
of
understanding
the
context
but
I
also
the
density
is
it's
a
big.
It
is
a
big
jump,
so
hopefully
they
can
look
at
that
all.
E
Right
is
there.
T
D
On
the
first
case
for
10
30
calling
VOA
139-5028-516
Sumner
Street
just
to
confirm
octave,
there's
a
three
family
and
store
and
change
to
a
four
family
renovate
the
building,
including
adding
a
rare
addition,
a
roof
deck,
an
extend
living
space
to
the
bottom
floor,
violation,
article
27g.
This
is
in
the
East
Boston
iPod
article
53
Section
8,
a
multi-family
used
forbidden
article
23,
section
9,
the
Floyd.
A
ratio
is
excessive:
article
53,
section
56
off
street
parking.
AR
Just
to
point
out,
we
are,
we
did
remove
the
roof
deck
and
the
plans
that
umiz
Barraza
has
should
show
that
The
Proposal
now
is
we're
seeking
to
change
the
occupancy,
as
was
mentioned
from
a
three
unit,
building
to
a
four
dwelling
and
two
completely
renovate
both
the
interior
and
exterior
of
the
building,
and
then
add
a
rare
addition
that
is
7
by
19
feet.
AR
That
addition
will
basically
add
a
second
means
of
internal
egress,
stairs
to
the
property
and
also
add
a
bathroom
to
each
of
the
units,
the
beta,
the
bottom
level
of
lower
level.
This
is
a
good
picture
of
the
existing
structure,
so
we're
not
building
up
or
out
on
the
sides
of
this
building
that
lower
level
is
existing.
As
you
can
see,
it
has
seven
foot
seven
inch
sailings
has
full
walkout
in
the
rear
and
we'll
have
an
entrance
at
the
front
years
ago.
That
was
used.
AR
Probably
not
legalized
but
used
as
a
store,
like
a
community
store
that
folks
went
to
a
variety
store
you
years
before
the
layout
of
the
unit,
so
that
bottom
level
would
there's
unit
one
would
be
1120
square
foot
three
bedroom
two
bath
I
had
mentioned
that
would
have
seven
foot,
seven
inch
ceilings
height
the
unit
two
at
the
upper
level.
On
the
second
floor,
it's
a
three
bedroom
two
bath
with
a
thousand
twenty
square
feet.
AR
We
go
up
to
unit
three
and
that's
a
three
bedroom
two
bath,
a
thousand
fifty
square
feet
and
then
unit.
Four
is
a
thousand
seventy
five
square
foot
two
bedroom
two
bath,
as
was
mentioned,
we
originally
did
have
a
roof
deck
that
was
removed
proposal,
so
there
are
no
decks
on
the
building
the
violations
that
were
mentioned.
So
this
is
a
3F
District.
Although
there
are
apartment
style
complexes
around
us
as
well,
we
are
proposing
for
so
use.
Violation
was
triggered
additional
lot
area.
We
have
500,
a
thousand
will
be
required.
AR
Our
existing
fa,
honors
1.23,
so
we
would
be
proposing
1.94
and
1.0
is
what's
allowed
the
code,
the
height
is
not
changing.
It
is
set
at
four
stories:
42
feet,
3
inches,
but
what
is
allowed
to
pre-existing
violation,
so
it
was
triggered
it's
three
stories.
35
feet,
open
space
we
had
890
square
feet
and
acquired
is
1200,
and
then
we
are
a
close
walk
to
Maverick
T
Station.
We
are
not
adding
any
additional
parking
because
we're
keeping
the
building
in
these
pictures.
You
can
see
all
the
elevations
and
you
can
see
that
lower
level.
AR
You
can
see
the
height
and
size
of
that
back.
You
can
also
see
in
this
picture
we're
removing
existing
rare
Decks
that
are
on
the
property
and
this
new
addition
that
would
host
the
internal
stairs
and
bathroom
on
each
level
would
not
go
any
farther
than
the
existing
exterior
Decks
that
are
there
now,
and
so
we
would
still
maintain
a
34
foot.
Rear
yard
set
back
on
the
building.
AR
B
Right
so
well
you
the
last
comment,
answer
the
question
they
have
so
the
addition.
This
is
the
same
footprint
as
the
existing
exterior.
B
So,
okay,
but
but
you
said,
but
you
have
the
same:
rear
yard
set
unchanged:
rear
yard
setback,
correct
okay,
that
was
that
was
my
question.
Yeah
I
don't
have
any
other
thoughts
or
comments.
Ms
Perez.
How
are
the
drawings.
Q
Good
morning,
Mr
chairman
I
was
on
the
board.
This
is
Natalia
Benitez,
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services
we
held
under
Butters
meeting
for
this
project
on
June
22nd.
There
were
very
few
voters
that
attended
the
meeting
the
Americans.
Their
main
concerns
were
the
density
of
the
street
and
the
life
arching
in
the
area.
The
applicant
met
with
the
Jeffrey's
boy,
neighborhood
association
in
July
and
August,
as
well
as
September.
The
membership
voted
to
support
this
project
with
nine
of
residents
and
support
and
Aid
in
opposition.
Q
Q
Can
you
hear
me
now
yeah
go
ahead,
okay,
perfect,
so
those
supporting
the
projects,
appreciative
of
the
applicant
will
be
preserving
an
existing
tree,
that
the
building
height
will
remain
the
same
and
the
roof
decks
were
removed
from
the
original
proposal
as
part
of
the
community
process,
when
our
office
has
received
eight
eight
letters
of
support
for
this
project
and
at
this
time
our
office
relates
to
the
first
judgments
report.
Thank
you
again.
Mr.
D
B
Okay,
one
one
question:
you've
said
that
at
some
point
that
lower
level
was
used
as
a
neighborhood
Variety
Store.
What's
it
used
for.
AR
T
B
The
in
the
units
themselves
correct
that
was
that
was
my
follow-up
question.
Thank
you
all
right.
If
there's
no
further
testimony,
then
I
would
entertain
a
motion.
A
Can
I
just
just
double
the
the
tree
that
they
mentioned,
that's
going
to
be
removed?
Can
we
just
put
in
some
Proviso
that
they
work
on
with
design
review
of
a
street
tree
or.
B
E
D
On
your
next
case,
calling
VOA
one
three,
three,
two
one:
zero:
seven,
five,
forty
eight
East
Third
Street.
This
is
a
demolition
of
a
single
family,
detached
house,
new
construction,
a
three
unit,
residential
building
with
boxing
violation,
article
68,
Section
8,
the
fluid
a
ratio
is
excessive
and
article
68
Section
8
in
the
lot
area,
is
insufficient
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please
my.
AS
Name
is
Stephen
pedipass,
seven
Stimson,
Street,
West,
Roxbury,
I'm,
the
architect
for
the
project,
there's
an
existing
single-family
two
and
a
half
story
single
family
on
site,
which
the
intent
is
to
remove
it's
a
pretty.
It
did
pretty
bad
structural
condition
anyways
and
needs
either
to
be
completely
renovated
or
removed,
and
in
this
place
we
proposed
this
three
unit
building
to
be
installed
with
on
on-site
parking
in
a
garage
in
a
lower
level,
the
the
violation
for
the
roof
structure
through
the
community
process
we've
actually
eliminated
the
roof
deck.
AS
So
we
probably
will
not
be
needing
the
the
release
on
the
roof
structure.
The
it
will
be
three
two
two
bed,
one
bath
units
with
parking
below,
and
there
are
several
buildings
in
the
area:
Five,
Doors,
Down,
there's
a
four-story
building
and
Pluto
is
down
around
the
corner.
There's
another
four-story
building
and
in
fact
this
particular
project,
almost
identity,
mimics,
the
the
project
that
was
built
at
194,
K
Street,
which
is
literally
around
the
corner.
AS
G
AS
No
they're
rentals,
the
owner
intends
on
using
two
of
the
units
for
himself
and
family,
and
the
third
unit
will
be
intended
to
be
rented
out.
Okay,.
B
Very
good,
all
right,
Miss
Perez.
How
are
the
drawings.
V
B
Okay,
thank
you
all
right
again,
any
questions
on
the
board
any.
AB
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
Conor
Newman
with
the
mayor,
soft's
Neighborhood
Services
this
time
the
mayor's
office
like
to
defer
to
the
judgmental
board,
there's
some
background
information
on
the
community
process.
Ons
host
in
the
butters
meeting
on
July
13th,
with
Community
input
from
the
Gate
of
Heaven
neighborhood
association,
the
proponent
removed,
roof
decks
from
their
proposal.
Some
of
Butters
had
expressed
concerns
about
additional
streams.
This
project
may
have
on
on
street
parking
with
that
we
defer
to
the
board.
Thank
you
good.
S
Morning,
Mr
chairman
members
of
the
board
Calderon
from
Council
president
flink's
office.
The
councilor
would
like
to
go
and
record
an
opposition
based
on
feedback
from
Neighbors
at
the
meeting
regarding
parking,
as
well
as
the
Gate
of
Heaven
neighborhood
association,
who
indicated
they
were
unaware
that
the
plan
was
to
tear
down
the
existing
building.
The
Civic
group
has
stated
it
was
their
understanding
that
the
existing
structure
would
be
modified
to
minimize
impact
on
the
others
as
a
result
of
this
Resource
Council,
president
of
linear,
suppose,
thank
you.
E
AE
AE
Bob
damico,
BTD
I
think
there's
a
little
bit
of
a
problem
by
Dover
ability
and,
in
my
opinion,
I
think
the
number
of
spaces
should
be
reduced
from
three
to
two.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
B
V
B
B
Okay
with
the
board
now
is
there
a
second
to
miss
Perez's
motion.
B
E
Okay,
Mr
Fortune,
yes,
Miss
Dom,.
I
I
I
B
Your
hero,
yes,
and
I
too,
will
support
that
motion
for
denial
without
prejudice,
so
Mr
Kelly,
probably
looking
to
come
back
with
the
modified
proposal.
Thank.

at

and
add
new
front

above
the

use

They
have
an

to

Please.
AT
Good
morning,
Mr
secretary
Mr,
chairman
members
of
the
board,
Tim
Johnson
architect,
599
East,
Broadway
South
Boston,
to
an
existing
two
and
a
half
story
attached
three-family
building
we
are
proposing
to
demolish
the
existing
gable
roof
and
add
a
flat
roof
to
create
more
spacious
living
area.
At
the
third
floor,
similar
to
the
units
below
this
project
will
contain
the
existing
three
two
bedroom
units
with
an
average
size
of
1700
square
feet,
there's
no
change
to
occupancy
or
to
the
existing
Park
rear
parking.
However,
unit
one
will
be
a
duplex
unit.
AT
AT
AT
Similar
to
the
this
is
a
new
third
floor
plan
which
would
have
the
flat
roof
so
we're
opening
up
the
entire
space
as
the
units
below
besides
side
yard
relief.
We
are
also
asking
for
usable
open
space
relief.
However,
each
unit
will
either
have
a
new
or
existing
front
balcony
and
or
rear
deck
next
slide.
Please.
AT
AT
And
the
rear
elevation
you
can
see.
We
have
infilled
the
area
between
the
exit,
the
butter
on
the
right,
which
is
a
blank
party
wall,
creating
some
additional
living
space.
We
have
a
trash
Corral
at
the
bottom
right
of
the
elevation
recessed
into
the
building
and
then
the
entry
door
to
the
Lula
elevator
foyer.
B
AT
Correct,
oh
yes,
yes,
Mr
chairman
the
building
is
attached.
There
is
a
small
there's,
a
small
area
void
in
the
rear
between
the
two
buildings
that
were
infilling.
That's
where
triggering
side
yard.
B
And
the
what
is
the
the
Florida
ceiling
height
of
the
the
lower
level
of
the
media
room.
AT
The
Lula
elevator
only
requires
a
a
12
inch
deep
pit,
the
model
that
we're
proposing,
so
it's
minimal
excavation
for
the
pit
and
it
relaxes
all
floors.
Okay,.
AB
AT
B
Okay
and
and
with
the
flat
roof
again
I
assume
this
will
sort
of
end
up,
if
approved,
with
the
kind
of
look
of
a
traditional
Triple
Decker.
AT
Yes,
if
we
can
scroll
all
the
way
to
the
beginning
of
the
drawings
to
see
the
3D
view.
Yes,
we'll
pull
the
detail
off
of
budding
buildings,
keep
going
all
the
way
please.
So
you
can
see
we
we
have
the
dental
work,
a
very
strong
cornice
at
the
roof
plate.
AT
Two
to
one
proportion.
Windows
with
grills
got.
V
AT
V
AT
There
are
no,
there
are
no
windows
on
that
side
of
the
party
wall.
Okay,.
A
I
I,
just
I
just
got
a
question
about
design
and
this
isn't
my
necessary
area
of
expertise,
but
why?
Wouldn't
you
just
continue
to
break
Brownstone,
look
on
this
building
and
not
introduce
a
completely
different,
like
the
existing
building,
looks
kind
of
funny
to
me
to
begin
with,
I,
don't
know
why
the
triple
deck
I
don't
know
why
we
wouldn't
just
continue
the
Brownstone
look
on
this
new
building
to
match
everything
there
in
that
row.
AT
Well,
yeah
good
question:
it
is
an
existing
wood
frame.
Building
due
to
cost
could
be
one
reason
we
we
stayed
with
the
wood
frame
construction
instead
of
introducing
brick
veneer,
sir.
We
can
certainly
address
that
further
at
bpda
design
review,
but
along
this
Street
East
Broadway.
There
are
new
numerous
examples
of
the
iconic
Triple
Decker
and
that's
the
model
that
we're
we're
emulating
on
this
project,
but
we
can
certainly
address
any
issues
like
that
at
bpda
design,
review.
B
AB
Yes,
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
Connor
Newman
with
the
mayor's
office
Neighborhood
Services
this
time
the
mayor's
office
like
to
refer
to
the
Judgment
of
the
board,
some
background
information
on
the
community
process,
our
office
hosting
the
butters
meeting
on
July
27th
Ronan
answered
all
questions
from
the
Butters
and
stated
they
made
some
changes.
After
initial
conversations
in
your
butter
input,
most
of
the
butters
in
the
meeting
were
positive
George
proposal.
There
wasn't
a
butter
on
P
Street
who
expressed
some
concerns
regarding
the
vents
on
the
roof.
AB
S
L
Yes,
I'm
not
sure
if
I
can
add
anything
to
to
what
Tim
says,
but
I've
owned
the
building
for
almost
20
years
and
it's
a
hundred
years
old.
We
need
some
TLC
and
it
needs
affection.
You
know
a
nickel
if
you
will
and
I've
used
it
as
a
rental
unit.
One
of
my
three
children
in
various
stages
of
their
wife
doing
people
have
used
it
and
I
contend
that
we
plan
to
continue
as
a
represent
myself.
L
I
grew
up
in
South,
Boston
I
have
a
lot
of
family
there
and
my
nephewagen,
who
is
going
to
be
at
the
end
of
the
building.
So
again
we're
very
sensitive
for
the
Neighbors
have
said,
and
we'll
continue
to
do
that
as.

AN
Good
morning,
Mr
chairman
Attorney
Kevin
Patrick
Joyce
Law
Firm
Brown
Rudnick
One
Financial
Center
in
Boston
with
me
today,
I
have
on
behalf
of
the
applicant
Susan
Pollock
and
John
Burley
from
Brockley
prep
I
also
have
Baldwin,
who
is
a
project
consultant
and
the
architect
Matt
Rice
from
smma,
if
it
pleases,
the
board
out
dispense
with
a
zoning
review
and
let
Mr
Baldwin
walk
us
through
the
process
that
we've
completed
with
our
to
the
automating
process,
the
neighborhood
process
and
provided
a
detailed
overview
of
the
program.
AU
Thank
you,
Kevin
Bob
Baldwin,
here
375
Acorn,
Park,
Drive
Belmont,
as
a
development
consultant
for
the
school.
If
we
can
actually
scroll
up
a
little
bit,
I'll
go
through
this
presentation
fairly
quickly
right,
there
is
good.
So
this
is
a
a
new
school
for
the
Roxbury
Prep
charter
school.
It
has
been
around
for
20
years,
you
scroll
down
now
the
demographic
it
has
three
middle
schools
which
are
grades
five
through
eight
feeding
into
one
high
school.
AU
The
high
school
has
been
around
for
about
five
or
six
years,
but
has
not
had
a
permanent
home
during
that
entire
period.
They
are
currently
located
in
temporary
spaces,
one
in
Hyde
Park
and
one
in
Nubian
Square.
These
schools,
demographics,
as
you
can
see,
are,
are
really
mirror
the
BPS
and
the
City
of
Boston
student
population
next
slide.
AU
This
slide
really
is
just
meant
to
show
that
the
location
in
the
new
market
area
in
Roxbury
is
is
ideal
for
the
student
population,
as
you
can
see.
In
the
right
hand,
side
the
darker
blue
reflects
where
most
of
the
population
comes
from.
It
is
the
Roxbury
Dorchester
neighborhoods
and
the
primary
Transportation
routes
feed
very
well
into
this
area.
Next
slide.
AU
The
site
itself
is
a
as
is
a
right
now.
A
no
longer
in
use,
but
was
last
used,
is
really
a
construction
yard.
With
a
few
Warehouse
type
buildings
and
one
I
would
say:
dilapidated
Residential,
Building
I,
don't
think,
has
been
occupied
for
decades.
AU
The
location
again
is
really
excellent
for
the
school.
We
really
appreciate
the
all
the
public
transportation
routes
which
I'll
get
into
some
of
the
organizations
like
the
base,
that
is
just
across
Clifford
Park
and,
in
fact,
Clifford
Park
being
directly
at
budding.
We
think
we
can
provide
a
lot
of
good
synergies
to
look
after
the
park
and
the
park
could
be
used
as
an
asset
for
the
school
next
slide.
AU
Just
briefly
showing
you
the
transportation
routes,
because
I
think
this
is
critical
for
why
we
think
this
is
a
good
spot
for
a
school.
Here,
you
see
all
the
bus
routes
and,
in
fact,
the
Fairmont
line.
Many
of
our
students
have
access
to
the
Fairmont
line
and
we
look
to
bring
you
know
really.
The
ridership
on
the
Fairmont
line
up
quite
a
bit
both
high
school
students,
as
well
as
I,
believe,
seventh
and
8th
grade
students
receive
MBTA,
passes
and
utilize
this
public
transportation.
AU
They
do
not
get
the
yellow
school
buses
next
slide
so
with.
Regarding
Transportation
Focus,
we
have
you.
We
bought
both
Magazine
Street
and
Proctor
Street.
One
of
the
first
things
we
heard
in
our
discussions
with
the
bpda
and
the
overall
New
Market
planning
was
at
Magazine.
Street
should
be,
should
remain
as
open
as
possible.
So
we've
focused
all
of
our
pedestrian
and
Main
front
front
door.
Access
on
Proctor,
Street,
so
pick
up
and
drop
off
Etc
will
take
place
on
Proctor
Street.
AU
The
only
use
of
Magazine
Street
will
be
accessing
our
46
parking
spaces
for
staff.
Only
as
well
as
rubbish,
removal
and
limited
loading.
We
don't
get
a
lot
of
loading,
so
we've
really
kept
that
quite
open.
There's,
no
pedestrian,
there's,
no
reason
why
any
pedestrian
would
access
the
building
of
Magazine
Street.
AU
The
pickup
and
drop-off
activities
will
occur
on
Proctor
Street,
we've
coordinated
with
both
the
Red
Cross,
who
has
a
food
bank
down
the
road,
as
well
as
the
Mason
Street
Mason
school
right
there
on
Norfolk
to
make
sure
that
it
is
all
works.
Well,
it
works
with
BPD
next
slide,
just
a
little
site
context.
We
can
I
think
roll
right
through
this.
AU
So
again,
here's
our
ground
floor
plan
it.
It
shows
the
46
parking
spaces
which
are
largely
covered
by
structure.
Above
we
have
activated
the
Proctor
Street,
with
placing
our
dining
Commons
there
with
a
lot
of
glasses,
you'll,
see
in
the
final
slides,
as
well
as
our
main
entrance.
One
thing
to
note
here
is
on
the
lower
right
hand,
side
you'll,
see
four
orange
rooms
identified
as
admin.
Those
have
been
redesigned
to
now
include,
mostly
in
that
area
of
bicycle,
a
bicycle
room
per
bpda
and
BTD
recommendations.
AU
Next
slide,
second
floor,
you
can
see
is
where
we
have
a
gymnasium.
This
is
a
full-size
gymnasium
for
the
both
high
school
or
Middle,
School,
basketball
or
other
programs.
It
includes
a
stage
for
drama
programs,
some
health
facilities
and
we
start
to
get
into
our
classrooms
next
slide.
AU
The
third
and
the
fourth
floors
are
very
similar.
We
have
a
classroom,
a
row
of
classrooms
again
overlooking
Proctor
Street.
The
gym
is
open
to
below
and
we
have
science
labs
next
slide
again.
The
fourth
floor,
as
you
can
see,
is
very
similar.
This
is
where
much
of
the
the
classrooms
take
place.
We
just
have
a
few
more
classrooms
here,
because
the
stage
is
double
height
and
now
we
can
pick
up
more
classrooms.
AU
You
can
roll
through
this.
This
looks
like
a
duplicate,
and
here
are
some
images
from
Proctor
Street.
This
is
a
where
we
are
currently
today
having
gone
through
quite
a
bit
of
design,
a
review
and
discussions
with
the
bpda.
Let
me
point
out
the
entrance
here.
One
of
the
changes
we
made
was
a
request
from
all
sorts
of
folks
to
expand
the
sidewalk
on
Proctor
Street,
so
it
actually
comes
in
where
the
entrance
is
quite
a
bit
and
throughout
it's
I,
think
three
or
four
feet
wider
than
occur.
AU
AU
And
lastly,
this
is
just
sort
of
an
image
to
set
it
in
the
context
for,
what's
around
it
evening,
image
so
before
I
give
up
the
floor
here.
Just
a
few
more
things
to
mention.
We
had
a
I
think
a
a
good
Community
process,
a
very
robust
process.
We
met
with
the
new
market,
Business
Association
many
of
the
electeds
who
represent
this
District
as
well
as
elected,
to
represent
neighboring
districts.
AU
We
spoke
with
The
Dudley
Street
neighborhood
initiative.
Well,.
B
We'll
we'll
hear
from
them:
okay,.
AU
Very
good,
very
good,
I'm,
sorry,
yeah,
and
so
lastly,
just
mentioned
that
our
neighbors
at
Suffolk
construction
are
also
our
contractors
and
I
will
stand
down.
B
Okay,
well,
give
me
some
questions,
so
don't
stand
too
far
down
so
the
what
are
the
grades
that
are
going
to
be
in
this?
The
school
will
cover.
AU
The
plan
is
currently
for
grades
nine
through
twelve
nine.
B
Through
twelve,
and
that
will
replace
what
for
the
existing
Roxbury
prep.
AU
Community,
it
will
replace
a
building
that
we
are
renting
from
a
most
precious
blood
in
Hyde
Park,
as
well
as
a
building
which
we
are
renting
on
Washington
Street
in
Nubian
Square.
Whether
a
high
school
population
is
currently
split.
B
And
you
are
assuming
that
the
bulk
of
the
student
population
would
come
on
public
transportation.
Bmsf.
Is
that
the
thinking
yeah.
AU
I
we're
assuming
the
bulk
of
the
students
will
come
via
public
transportation,
not
necessarily
all
Mass
Avenue
Mass
Ave,
the
Fairmont
line,
and
probably
some
of
them.
It's
it's
about
a
five
minute,
walk
over
from
the
Nubian
Square
Transportation
Center,
maybe
about
seven
minutes
from
there.
Okay,.
B
Where
is
I
forget?
How
far
is
the.
AU
AU
It's
about
well,
actually,
it's
not
about
it's
a
it's
right
on
the
edge
of
our
five
minute
walking
distance.
Okay,.
AU
The
red
line
is,
you
know,
you'd
have
to
go,
I
think
it's
over
the
highway
to
get
to
Andrew
Square
it
is.
It
is,
however,
I
I
failed
to
mention
this
because
we're
very
excited
about
it.
The
new
market
business
improvement
district,
which
has
been
passed,
is
starting
or
has
started
free
shuttle
buses.
So
there
is
a
shuttle
that
will
be
running
from
the
Enders
Square
red
line
that
we
think
our
students
can
also
take
advantage
of
okay
right.
P
B
The
you
said
there
are
46
parking
spaces
correct
and
are
those
for
staff
and
faculty?
Is
that?
Well,
that's
intended
use.
AU
That's
correct,
Mr
chairman
they,
yes,
they
will
be
totally
for
staff
and
we
have
about
90
to
95
staff
members
and
we've
done
an
inventory
of
public
Avail,
publicly
available
parking
in
the
area
and
and
believe
that
there
is
a
sufficient
publicly
available
parking
in
addition
to
the
bike
rooms
and
the
bike
storage,
as
well
as
the
public
transportation.
B
AU
V
In
the
evening
when
there's
basketball
events
is,
will
the
parking
lot
be
available
to
families?
Yes,.
B
And
then
I,
don't
I
must
have
just
missed
it
as
things
scrolled
by
the
internal
floor
plan.
So.
E
AU
V
AU
Yes,
we
are,
we
are
shooting
for
lead
gold,
and
this
is
will
be
a
100
electric
building.
We
are
bringing
in
no
gas
so
and
we
are
also
negotiating
as
we
speak,
to
put
full
solar
on
the
roof.
G
P
AU
Yes,
we're
putting
the
improvements
that
we're
doing
are
on
our
budding
sidewalk,
both
Magazine
Street
and
Proctor
Street.
P
AU
Yeah,
so
we're
in
we're
in
discussions
with
the
parks
commission,
the
parks
department.
Now
we
actually
will
have,
because
it
is
of
course
across
the
street
from
the
parts
we
need
to
go
to
them
for
approval
as
well.
Following
this
process,
we
have
offered
Financial
payment
to
mitigate
some
of
the
costs
and
help
with
the
safety.
AU
We
have
discussed
a
little
bit
how
our
our
pickup
and
drop-off
Zone
will
function
so
that
we
don't
take
away
parking
spaces
for
folks
who
want
to
use
the
park,
and
we
have
talked
about
the
fact
that,
even
though
we
will
be
living
across
the
street,
hopefully
we'd
expect
no
special
treatment.
There's
a
lot
of
pressure
on
Parks
as
folks
know,
from
school
use,
and
there
are
schools
that
use
it
for
practices.
AU
Today
and
again,
there
was
a
concern
that
we
would
have
expectations
beyond
what
may
be
deserved
and
we
do
not.
We
we
look
to
just
be
treated
the
same
as
any
other
school
beyond
that
we
haven't
had
any
formal
discussions,
but
I
think
that
you
know
the
way
we
look
at
it.
AU
B
F
AE
Yes,
I
did
Mr
chairman
members
of
the
board
of
the
Mako,
BTD
and
I'm.
Just
wondering.
Is
there
going
to
be
any
electric
parking
stations
located
in
the
parking
area.
AU
Yes,
there
will
be
I'm,
not
sure
the
entire
I
think
it's
the
entire
row
that
fronts
up
against
the
building,
so
it's
like
eight
or
nine
of
them.
We
certainly
satisfy
the
electric
parking
requirements
by
the
city,
so
I
think
that
we
have
I,
I,
seven
or
eight
fully
electrified
and
the
rest
of
them
I
think
infrastructure
to
be
electrified.
AE
Okay,
that's
excellent,
and
finally,
the
school
bus
drop
off
and
pickup
is
it
going
to
be
on
Street.
AU
That's
correct,
it'll,
be
on
the
on
Proctor.
Street
is
one
way
heading
towards
Mass
Ave,
so
the
the
pickup
and
drop-off
Zone
will
be
on
the
park
side
of
Proctor
Street,
and
we
have
requested
a
a
school
zone
for
that
of
about
about
500
feet.
AE
M
AE
B
My
final
question:
what's
the
expected
capacity
of
the
school,
is
it
the
if
you
add
the
two,
the
Hyde
Park
and
the
Nubian
locations
now?
Is
it
the
same
or
are
you
expecting
expanded
capacity.
E
AU
Good
question
that
we
were
building
this
for
a
capacity
of
800
students,
the
current
enrollment.
If
you
added
up
the
Nubian
and
Hyde
Park,
is
less
than
that.
I,
don't
know
exactly
how
much
but
might
be
more
like
in
the
600s,
but
the
school
Roxbury
prep
has
designed
their
they
have.
They
have
Charter
School
approval
for
the
800
students
and
have
designed
their
programs
for
800
high
school
students.
The
enrollment
has
been
off
a
bit
with
a
largely
due
to
the
split
campus.
AU
B
AI
Murphy
and
thank
you,
Mr
Baldwin
for
your
presentation.
AI
I've
been
following
your
I
I
guess
we
can
say
struggles
trying
to
find
a
home
for
this
great
school
I
was
fortunate
to
attend
the
stepping
up
day
at
the
Reggie
Lewis
last
spring,
and
it's
such
a
great
community
and
well
deserving
of
a
new
home
and
I
do
believe
working
closely
at
Clifford
Park
and
with
Sue
Sullivan
at
the
bid
and
I've
talked
to
people
that
sucked
at
construction
and
with
the
Mason
school
right
there
that
you
will
be
a
wonderful
neighbor
and
looking
forward
to
this
passing
hoping
that
you
know
we
can
start
building
because
you'll
be
a
great
neighbor
and
I
just
want
to
go
on
record
for
being
in
support
of
this
project.
AI
O
Good
morning
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board,
Keisha
Santana,
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services,
the
applicant
held
the
community
process
with
epda
that
received
a
lot
of
positive
Community
feedback.
It's
not
really
residential
area,
so
I
spoke
with
the
budding
businesses
met
with
elected
officials
and
are
very
excited
as
well
to
be
one
built
so
far.
At
this
time,
we'd
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board.
Thank.
AV
AV
I
just
want
to
note
a
few
points
in
opposition
to
this
project,
and
the
first
point
is
that
my
client,
as
a
director
of
butter
had
never
received
and
a
Butter's
notice
to
attend
the
meeting
for
this
project.
So
a
lot
of
these
points
may
have
come
out.
Then,
if
they'd
gotten
a
notice,
but
the
two
primary
problems
with
this
project
is
one
the
the
traffic
Arrangement.
You
know
parking
and
traffic
flowing.
Two
is
the
contamination
of
the
site.
AV
That's
a
direct
conflict
with
the
the
sole
use
of
my
client's
property,
just
a
warehouse
so
and
the
same
is
true.
On
Magazine
Street
there's,
actually
a
garage
door
entrance
on
that
side
where
Vehicles
you
know,
come
and
go
out
of
that
warehouse
and
the
same
problem.
There's
going
to
be
an
immense
amount
of
traffic
in
this
area,
which
there
already
is
with
very
little
off
street
parking
and
that's
an
inevitable
problem.
AV
B
AU
Yes,
I'll
be
happy
to
so
the
pickup
and
drop
off
on
Proctor
Street
again
the
the
actual
Trucking
entrance.
If
you
will,
the
trucking
doors
to
75
Proctor
is
not
on
Proctor
Street.
There
is
one
pedestrian
double
door
on
Proctor
Street.
He
we
believe
that
most
of
the
activities
for
loading
happen
on
Norfolk
Street,
so
our
pickup
and
drop-off
is
not
occurring
in
front
of
any
place
where
I
believe
they
would
have
any
trucks
backing
in
or.
B
AU
Primarily
so
that
when
students
are
let
out
of
their
cars
or
buses
and
there
will
be
very
few
buses,
they
get
out
on
the
sidewalk
rather
than
out
into
the
street.
So
it's
generally
what
we
try
to
do
with
pick
up
and
drop
off.
Okay,.
B
All
right,
thank
you
all
right,
otherwise,
hands
Madam
ambassador.
R
AJ
Mr
chairman,
this
is
Joe
McGovern
with
city
council,
Frank
Baker's
office
I
wasn't
able
to
slip
in
my
testimony.
We
want
to
go
on
record
and
support
of
the
applicant.
J
AV
Yes,
I
I
didn't
mention
my
second
Point
to
the
board.
If
I
could
have
you
know
two
minutes
to
do
that,
please
be
quick.
Yes,
thank
you
appreciate
your
time.
As
the
board
may
know
this,
this
is
a
disposal
site
that
is
significantly
polluted.
There's
been
releases
of
contaminants
as
as
recent
as
April
12
2022,
according
to
his
DP
of
contingency
plan
notice.
AV
So
what
my
client
has
asked
for
we
submitted
a
memorandum
prior
to
today
in
opposition,
is
that
the
board
delay
a
vote
on
this
for
at
least
three
months,
so
that
the
proper
due
diligence
on
the
environmental
piece
and
the
traffic,
a
question
that
we
discussed
a
moment
ago
can
be
addressed
and
then
brought
up
before
this
board
again
at
that
time.
So
you
have
a
more
complete.
E
B
I
I
B
Agero
yep
two
I'm
in
support
and
and
I'm
hopeful
that
the
the
issue
of
the
contaminants
will
be
looked
at
as
part
of
the
overall
process.

Attorney

Street
Boston
foreign
good
morning,
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board.
The
petitioner
is
requesting
a
second
deferral
on
this
project.
The
reason
being
is
that
we
laugh
the
parent
before
the
board
on
September
13th,
but
the
board
did
not
have
the
benefit
of
the
updated
floor
plans
and
project
description.
That
was
a
project
that
had
been
built
on
his
bpda
board,
approved
on
July
14th
in
September
30th.
We
submitted
new
plans
to
the
to
the
VBA
IFD.
B
Mr
Gold
I.
Thank
you
for
the
explanation,
but
you
can
actually
just
request
the
administrative
referral
and
you're
entitled
to
that.

Hearing

I'll
go

to
the

D
AY
Thank
you
Mr
secretary
good
morning,
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board.
My
name
is
Matt
Kiefer
I'm,
an
attorney
at
Wilson
in
stores,
and
my
address
is
7
Serena
Road
in
Jamaica
playing
on
my
right
is
Kevin
dieler
of
Brody
Architects,
the
project
architect
and
on
my
left
is
Dave
Trevor
the
development
manager
from
the
trigorth
companies
and
the
site
owner
our
client,
jigar
Patel
is
also
on
the
screen
of
SNH
development.
AY
So,
as
you
said
in
the
introduction,
this
is
29
units
of
housing
that
we
would.
The
project
is
basically
to
replace
a
tow
lot
in
Jamaica
Plain
with
an
all-electric
lead
gold,
solar,
PB,
contextually,
designed
29
unit
Housing
Development,
that's
consistent
with
JP
rot's
planning
principles
and
has
roughly
twice
the
amount
of
affordability
that
could
be
required
by
IDP.
AY
I
AY
It's
our
five
minute,
walk
literally
a
five
minute
walk,
maybe
not
even
a
five
minute:
walk
from
Green
Street,
T
Station
about
a
10
minute,
walk
from
Forest
Hills,
multimodal
transit
station
and
on
a
bus
line.
So
you'll
see
the
unit
mix
here
of
these
29
units
in
a
four-story
building
with
seven
parking
spaces
and
also
a
significant
indoor
bike
parking
one
space
per
unit,
29
spaces
in
the
building
and
some
sidewalk
spaces.
As
well.
I
mentioned
we
housing
affordability.
We
have
earned
our
additional
density
under
the
JP
rocks
formula.
AY
AY
The
IDP
would
require
three
units
at
70
percent
of
Ami,
plus
a
contribution
for
the
fractional
affordability
we
are
proposing,
six
units,
two
of
which
are
at
30
percent
of
Ami,
which
is
even
lower
than
JP
rocks,
requires
of
50
Ami
yeah
and
its
affordability
has
been
discussed
at
some
length
with
bpda
and
accepted
as
being
compliant
with
JP
rocks.
AY
I
also
want
to
mention
this
is
a
very
Green
Building
Birdo
2.0
compliant
an
all-electric
building
with
solar,
PV
and
illegal
we've
made
a
number
of
changes
to
the
design
of
the
project
that
Kevin
is
going
to
walk
you
through
in
a
minute.
I
I
do
want
to
make
sure
that
the
board
appreciates
this.
This
building
has
been
nipped
and
tucked
in
many
ways
over
a
course
of
maybe
three
years
plus
in
response
to
comments
and
concerns
from
our
Butters
from
the
bpda
from
BTD
and
others.
AY
So
with
that
I'm
happy
to
go
through
the
zoning,
if
the
board
would
like,
we
are
seeking
zoning
relief.
I'll.
Do
this
very
briefly
and
happy
to
entertain
any
questions
mentioned
far.
Also,
zoning
relief
or
Building
height
35
feet
is
the
underlying
height.
AY
We
would
be
at
about
48
feet
four
stories,
which
is
really
consistent
with
what's
becoming
the
context
on
Washington
Street,
where
four
and
five
story
buildings
are
now
under
construction
or
completed
the
on-street
parking
is,
we
think,
appropriate,
given
its
location
so
close
to
Transit
we're
seeking
relief
from
that
and
because
we're
on
a
local
industrial
district,
multi-family
residential
use
is
a
forbidden
use.
We
comply
with
all
other
zoning
requirements,
including
rear
yard
and
usable
open
space.
AY
So
with
that
I'd
like
to
turn
it
over
to
Kevin
to
walk
you
through
the
project
design,
Kevin
Dieter
of
rhodi
Architects.
Thank.
AX
You
Mr
chairman
of
the
members
of
the
board.
Thank
you
for
your
time
this
morning.
This
is
a
good
slide
to
start
off
with
I
think
that
we
really
look
at
the
design
of
this
building
is
being
shaped
by
our
process.
The
site
plan
itself
is
a
kind
of
a
an
exhibit
of
that
in
the
rear.
One
of
our
our
key
adjacencies
is
to
the
Union
Ave
neighbors.
Is
it
20-foot
setback
which
is
compliant
JP
rocks
and
the
underlying
zoning
as
well?
AX
Those
would
be
private
areas
for
the
new
residents
facing
other
residential
districts.
On
the
other
side,
Washington
Street,
you
can
see
the
increased
sidewalk
and
the
reduced
curb
got
down
to
about
10
feet
to
enhance
the
condition
of
the
sidewalk
and
add
a
street
treat.
We
have
also
balanced
the
need
in
the
neighborhood
for
parking
with
the
sort
of
future
Transit
oriented
nature
of
the
neighborhood,
but
parking
was
a
key
feature
of
something
that
we
resolved
and
worked
into
the
into
the
design.
AX
You
also
see
the
Vault
for
the
Transformer
within
the
footprint
of
that
drive
Zone,
and
you
also
can
see
that
making
considerable
effort
for
bike
storage,
trash
and
support
services
to
be
flown
and
closed
within
the
footprint
of
enclosed
into
your
space.
We
also
have
a
small
community
retail
space
which
we're
calling
and
we
use
that
term,
because
it's
it's
a
very
small
footprint
about
400
square
feet,
something
we
see
as
being
integral
to
getting
tenants
off
the
ground.
We
can
come
to
the
next
slide.
AX
You
can
start
to
see
that
the
footprints
for
the
second
and
third
floor
versus
the
fourth
floor
start
to
show
where
we
begin
to
step
the
building
back
from
those
setbacks
and
the
nature
of
facing
and
creating
a
a
prominent
Street
Street
law
on
Washington
Street,
that's
out
of
the
property
line,
but
then
portions
of
it
on
the
size
increase
to
six
and
seven
feet
on
the
edges
and
20
feet
in
the
rear.
AX
Very
recently,
we
have
been
continuing
to
work
with
the
neighbors
continuing
to
shape
the
building
with
the
meetings
and
the
kind
of
engagement
we've
had
this
unit.
27
that
you
can
see
on
the
right
side
was
a
bit
of
a
change
in
shift,
and
we've
very
recently
discussed
this
with
the
planner
viewer.
That
refusal
letters
then
corrected
and
updated
to
that
to
reflect
that.
AX
That
change
is
again
a
further
reflection
of
our
intent
to
continue
to
work
with
the
neighborhood
up
until
even
the
last
few
weeks
we've
been
in
contact
with
them.
Come
continue
to
roll
through
the
slides.
A
couple
more
renderings
start
to
show
that
the
the
material
usage
and
the
step
backs
and
the
depth
and
the
articulation
of
the
facade
is
something
that
we're
balancing
with
masonry
very
terracotta
and
quilted
metal,
Fabric
or
a
quilted
metal
panel.
AX
These
are
all
kind
of
contextual
materials
done
in
a
contemporary
way
again,
something
we
feel
that
we
see
coming
down
Washington
Street
and
wanting
to
maintain
this
character
of
what
the
building
next
door
to
it,
which
is
a
masonry
building
and
again
kind
of
continuing
to
use
the
JP
language.
On
Washington
Street,
one
more
slide
shows
in
a
kind
of
an
enlarged
View
and
rendering
of
that
street
front,
where
you
can
see
additional
kind
of
curb,
cut
reduction.
AX
You
can
see
that
this
effort
has
been
started
to
kind
of
wrap
around
the
other
edges
and,
and
each
and
every
kind
of
corner
facade
here
has
been
I
would
say
very
closely
work
with
neighbors
and
talking
about
where
decks
go.
Where
step
backs
are
occurring,
what
materials
we're
using
the
modulation
of
Windows
occur.
Not
only
are
we
sort
of
emphasizing
that
the
Washington
Street
facade
is
important,
but
also
are
the
sides
and
rear
are
just
as
important
the
last
slide
or
the
next
slide
shows
again.
AX
The
very
most
recent
work
with
Union
Ave
pavers,
especially
show
that
this
kind
of
intent
to
break
up
the
rear
facade
is
not
just
the
back
of
a
building,
but
something
that
these
residents
will
be
living
with.
So
we've
really
made
an
effort
to
continue
that
high
quality
material
use
around
and
make
it
a
scale
appropriate
for
residences
built
in
this
day
and
age.
So
I
think
that
really
kind
of
wraps
up
our
process,
the
shaping
by
The
Neighborhood.
AX
It's
been
like
not
such
kind
of
sort
of
witnessed.
It's
it's
a
lot
of
options
that
we
showed
about
the
balance
of
affordability
with
parking
and
Retail.
We
even
started
with
a
hotel
about
three
years
ago
and
then
I've
ended
up
moving
from
a
five-story
building
to
a
four-story
residential
building,
with
the
uses
that
you
see
today.
So
our
public
meetings
are
all
part
of
the
record
yeah.
B
All
right
we'll
get
to
the
neighbor
the
communities
process,
so
yeah
I'm
I
live
five
minutes
away
from
from
this
project
very
familiar
with:
what's
happened
with
this
sort
of
Eccles
in
the
Forest
Hills
Corridor
in
the
last
number
of
years
in
terms
of
the
incredible
expansion
of
multi-unit
housing,
a
couple
of
questions
about
this,
in
particular,
first
of
all,
I'm
a
little
confused
about
the
400
square
foot
community
space
in
the
front.
B
What
that
intent
is-
and
the
second
thing
is
I'm
sort
of
struck
by
from
for
a
lot
of
the
projects
that
have
been
built
in
this
area,
there's
a
little
bit
more.
The
units
tend
to
be
larger.
This
seems
to
be
really
purposefully.
AY
Yeah
so
Dave
can
ask
you
to
answer
the
you
know,
intend
about
the
community
commercial
space
and
also
the
unitment
state
trogort
from
True
birth
companies,
development
manager,
Mr,
chair.
AZ
So
a
couple
things
the
communities
face
was
really
driven
by
the
community
process
to
have
some
kind
of
storefront.
Knowing
that
it's
going
to
be
small,
the
idea
is
something
that
can
either
be
an
artist's
studio
or
Gallery.
Space
can
be
make
something
that
serves
the
community
and
the
immediate
Community
Bakery,
and
really
we're
hoping
to
any
and
all
ideas,
as
we
continue
to
work
with
the
community
about
what
that
should
be.
As
far
as
the
unit
mix,
it
was
actually
involved
in
a
building
in
JP
that
had
Studios.
AZ
It
was
a
historic
renovation,
rehab,
mostly
Studios,
and
one
bedrooms,
and
one
of
the
overwhelming
things
we
heard
from
people
was
there's
not
a
lot
of
options
of
this
of
Studios.
Frankly,
in
Jamaica,
Plain
and
love,
the
neighborhood
want
something
small
want
something
for
myself,
and
so
our
Market
study
really
backs
up
the
need
for
this
type
of
housing
really
close
to
Transit,
with
lots
of
lots
of
bike
parking
as
well.
B
AZ
You
know
we
will
certainly
expect
turnover.
This
will
be
a
rental
property,
but
we've
we've
also
seen
based
on
our
other
projects
that
people
really
do
stay,
there's,
certainly
a
lot
of
people
who
you
know
single
or
couples
and
that
stay
for
quite
a
while,
and
you
know,
rental
properties
that
we've
been
involved.
AY
B
Yeah
yeah
I
just
did
strike
me
that
this
is
a
little
bit
tilted
towards
the
studio
in
one
bed
of
the
mixes
that
have
been
built
along
that
Corridor.
All
right,
Miss.
V
V
AY
But
with
its
own
direct
route
out
to
the
to
the
curb.
V
Yep
I
see
that
and
in
terms
of
the
community
space
I
would
encourage
you
to
to
title
it,
whether
it's
really,
whether
it's
retail
and
it's
affordable
retail
for
local
Artisan,
but
to
leave
it
out
just
as
a
community
space
I
feel
like
it's
a
grab.
All
I
appreciate
that
you
guys
are
working
with
the
community
in
terms
of
what
that
could
be,
but
the
reality
is,
is
you
know
real
estate
is
expensive
in
Jamaica
Plain.
B
Any
questions
from
the
board:
okay:
can
we
move
to
public
testimony?
Yes,.
AB
This
time
the
mayor's
office
like
to
defer
to
the
Judgment
of
the
board,
this
proposal
went
through
an
extensive
Community
process
over
the
course
of
many
years,
lots
of
input
from
residents
and
employers.
As
you
also
heard
from
the
applicant's
representation
they
received
support
from
them
to
make
a
play,
neighborhood
Council,
as
well
as
the
BPA
board,
with
that
we
refer
to
the
board
at
this
time.
Thank
you.
B
AB
B
That's
obviously
an
attractive
feature.
No
doubt.
P
Okay,
I
do
have
a
quick
question
on
the
affordability
for
the
30
Ami
units.
Do
you
expect
to
get
you
know,
rental
vouchers,
for
those
units?
How
are
you
making
them
affordable
to
a
30
population.
AZ
They're
so
they're
underwritten
in
the
pro
forma
to
a
to
a
30
Ami
level.
There
are
no
project-based
vouchers,
certainly
but
people
who
come
with
vouchers
and
obviously
we
could
accept
them.
P
B
You,
okay,
moving
on
with
more
public
testimony.
R
Thank
you,
madam
Ambassador
Mr,
chairman
members
of
the
world
mine
operation
representing
the
Carpenters.
You
want
to
go
and
record
the
support
of
the
parade.
J
Thank
you,
Alan
I
sent
a
request
on
you.
Can
state
your
name
and
collaborative
records.
BA
Hi
Alan
Ben
and
Jones
36
Union
Avenue
a
direct
provider
to
this
project.
We
have
been
working
with
the
developer
for
quite
a
number
of
years,
and
the
project
has
evolved
to
the
state
that
you
have
currently
seen.
BA
The
butters
have
still
a
number
of
issues
regarding
the
project.
The
two
most
important,
but
they
are
not
by
any
means
all
is
the
design
of
the
rear
facade.
The
developer
is
working
well
in
that
direction
in
terms
of
making
the
design
of
that
facade
much
more
exciting
to
the
community.
The
right
hand
is
well
along
on
the
rear
side.
The
left
half
of
that
facade
still
needs
a
great
deal
of
work.
I
believe
the
developer
is
aware
of
that,
but
this
is
on
a
trajectory
to
being
resolved.
BA
The
other
major
issue
has
to
do
with
the
step
Act
of
the
fourth
floor.
Currently
it
is
only
a
six
foot
depth
barely
over
the
minimum
of
the
plan,
JP
rocks
requirements-
and
this
is
really
insufficient
mitigation
to
the
Butters,
particularly
because
we
have
a
rather
Long
View
Corridor
directly
from
Union
Avenue.
It's
20
feet
wide
looking
towards
this
building,
so
the
this
issue
is
still
outstanding
from
the
perspective
of
the.
BA
B
No
about
about
the
the
design,
the
setbacks
we
were
hopefully
you're
close
to
wrapping
up.
BA
Yes,
we
have
proposed
to
the
board,
because
it's
very
very
important
that
the
community
still
participate
in
this
design
process
and
we
have
you
know
Butters
letter
to
the
board
recommended
that
if
there
is
a
Proviso
to
go
forward
to
design
review
that
it
allowed
for
and
include
participation
by
representatives
from
the
butters
in
that
discussion,
okay,.
AW
BB
Three
concerns
very
quickly:
one
is
about
the
AC
exchangers,
so
I
understand
there
are
29
units,
I,
don't
know
where
all
these
heat
exchanges
are
going
to
be
placed
they're
going
to
be
on
the
top
of
the
building.
They're
gonna
add
height,
we
already,
you
know,
overwhelming
height
of
this
building,
plus
noise,
and
you
know
so
heat.
Another
concern
is
about
the
trash
I
understand
that
they
are
gonna.
Have
a
company
dealing
with
the
trash
on
the
floor
plan
and
I
see
only
eight
containers.
BB
AY
V
Mr
chair
I
like
to
put
forward
a
motion
of
approval
with
bpda
design,
review,
paying
special
attention
to
residential
concerns
on
the
rear,
to
discuss
issues
of
trash
management
with
a
developer
and
to
also
take
into
consideration
loading
or
drop
balls
with
Ubers
on
the
property
and
also
another
Proviso
to
adhere
to
the
six
proposed
affordable
units
at
70
and
30
Mi.
With
the
105
000
IDP
fund
contribution.
A
B
You
know
what
Mr
Mr
Fortune
it's
12
15.
we
were
rolling
along
there
kind
of
slowed
down
a
little
bit.
I
think
people
could
probably
use
a
break.
Why
don't
we
take
a
break
now
and
re-convene
at
12
30.
