B
Morning,
miss
better
good
morning,
madam
chair
good
morning,
mr
hampton.
B
Morning,
mr
fortune,
the
floor
is
yours,.
C
B
Is
there
a
second
second
alec
fortune,
hi
dong,
hi
rogero.
G
C
C
H
Yes,
but
I
do
need
to
point
out
for
the
record,
this
matter
was
approved
by
the
board
july
21
2020.
The
date
of
entry
of
the
decision
was
august,
21
2020,
so
my
understanding
is
that
the
decision
is
valid
for
a
period
of
24
months
from
the
date
of
entry.
So
I
do
not.
E
Make
a
motion
for
a
one
year,
extension
from
the
date
of
expiration.
B
May
I
have
a
second
fortune:
aye
aye
aye,
don
aye.
C
Thank
you,
mr
judge,
regarding
1271
to
1275
bortleson
street.
This
is
a
request
to
extend
the
board
proviso
that
sunset's
priority
lead
to
the
verb
hotel
related
to
the
use
of
their
parking
lot.
Covertolling
applies
to
the
sunset
provider
because
it
existed
prior
to
the
coveted
state
of
emergency.
The
original
exploration
of
the
sunset
proviso
is
april
10th
of
2023,
but
the
new
total
expiration
date
july,
15
2024.
B
Miss
broom,
why
why
is
this
parking
lot?
Why
is
there
an
extension
on
this.
I
Madam
chair,
this
is
the
I
think,
of
course,
the
application
number
one
questions
before
sending
sun
supervisor
for
this
parking
lot.
I
know
it
doesn't
expire
until
the
next
year,
but
they
haven't
wanted
to
just
come
back
here,
because
it's.
I
B
Okay,
so
the
date
is
what
is
the
date
again.
B
Okay,
I
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
for
for
sunset
clauses
like
this,
that
we
could
give
some
extra
thought
about
the
tolling,
because
I
totally
understand
about
the
relief.
But
if
for
something
like
this
anyway,
so
are
there?
Is
there
a
motion
for
seven
foot
for
an
extension.
C
B
B
H
L
C
C
Thank
you,
mr
dela,
roosevelt
regarding
five
jackson
avenue
the
board
originally
granted
this
relief
on
july
29th
2016,
but
it
was
appealed
to
superior
court.
The
case
was
not
dismissed
until
january
30th
of
2020
with
litigation
tolling.
This
relief
would
not
have
expired
until
january
30th
2022,
however,
the
applicant
returned
to
the
board
of
2021
has
received
an
extension
of
their
relief
until
april
27
2022.
C
C
E
B
D
So
that
I
could
go
up
extended
where
I
got
an
extension
previously
to
raise
the
roof
of
the
back
of
the
garage
and
when
my
wife
and
I
looked
at
it,
it
made
more
sense
just
to
go
up
and
make
the
smaller
bedroom
upstairs
larger,
because
it's
it's
actually
it's
a
two-bedroom
cape
and
you
they
have
that
small
one.
So
the
builder
also
said
that
it
makes
more
sense
if
you're
going
to
change
the
roof,
you
should
go
right
up
and
make
the
second
small
bit
the
smaller
bedroom,
larger.
B
H
B
Okay,
fortune.
H
E
C
O
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
board
attorney
jeff
drago
with
drago
and
toscano,
with
the
business
address
of
11
beacon
street
here
on
behalf
of
the
applicant
for
board
final
arbiter
city,
realty
and
josh
fetterman,
and
I
also
have
dan
artegis
from
embark.
The
architects,
the
the
reason
we
were
requesting
board
final
arbiter
goes
back
to
the
approved
project
from
february
4th
2020..
O
At
that
hearing,
we
were
approved
for
a
height
of
six
stories,
71
feet.
As
the
plans
progressed,
it
became
apparent
that
the
existing
conditions
measurement
was
not
accurate
and,
as
a
result,
the
building
was
actually
18
inches
higher
in
its
existing
condition
on
the
measurement.
So
nothing
else
structurally
in
the
building
would
change,
but
we
are
seeking
relief
for
that
additional
height.
B
B
F
I
had
a
question
about
the
extensions
yes
are.
These?
Is
this
the
board's
process
now
that
anything
with
the
sunset
clause
is
just
going
to
be
an
extension,
because
there
are
several
of
them.
I.
B
F
B
Is
why
I
kind
of
had
an
issue
with
that,
because
I
do
believe
that
they
have
to
stick
to
their
sense
of
cause,
and
I
do
believe
that
they
have
to
put
a
rationale
on
the
record
for
an
extension.
F
B
We
need
to
go
through
process
this
one,
as
you
could
tell
took
me
a
little
bit
by
surprise,
but
we
will
we
will
need
it
to
go
through
process
so
that
every
kind
of
evaluation
that
we
put
in
place.
We.
B
No,
I
got
it,
I
got
it,
but
if
there
is
a
this,
this
is
not.
If
there
is,
we
should
talk
about
this
offline
by
it,
but
but
jeff.
Ms
hampton,
I
completely
agree
with
you.
Let's
just
move
on
with
our
cases,
but
thank
you
for
raising
it
in
the
public
realm.
C
Following
your
next
case
for
groundwater
case
bla,
one
three,
one,
eight,
eight,
six,
nine
eighty
two
endicott
street.
This
is
a
change
of
luxury
of
three
departments
in
one
store
to
three
apartments.
C
B
Thank
you
is
mrs
simonella.
There
good.
B
Okay,
fortune
hi
alec.
L
B
K
Q
C
The
first
case
doa
127,
103
562
putnam
street.
This
is
a
change
of
offer
from
a
single
family
home
to
a
two
family
home
also
to
the
exterior
renovation,
including
a
rafted
viral
stair,
and
extend
living
spaces.
The
basement
for
unit
one
with
the
proposed
addition
to
the
right
side
of
the
dwelling
violation,
article
32
section
four.
K
O
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
board
attorney
jeff
drago
with
drago
and
toscano,
with
the
business
address
of
11
beacon
street
here
on
behalf
of
the
owner,
developer
and
architect,
philip
sema.
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
the
record,
because
the
description
still
is
incorrect
from
what
we
now
have.
What
is
better
would
have
the
the
proposal
now
is
to
change
the
occupancy
from
a
one
family
to
a
two
family
home.
So
that's
been
reduced
from
four.
O
It
does
madam
chair,
if
I
could
just
finish
also
because
something
else
changed,
it's
gonna
change
those
violations
as
well.
There
is
no
longer
a
third
story
edition
it's
just
to
infill
the
second
floor
and,
as
you
mentioned
in
doing
all
this,
we
do
eliminate
height
violation,
lot
area,
violation,
use,
violation
and
g-cod
is
not
applicable
in
this
area
that
was
actually
removed
in
our
most
updated
refusal.
This
isn't
even
energy-caught
area,
so.
B
Yeah,
okay,
so
this
is
article
I
don't
see
g
cod,
I
see
ipod,
but
let's
go
ahead.
Tell
us
about
the
proposed
size
of
the
units.
Sure.
O
So
the
building
will
remain
tax.
It's
an
existing
structure.
C
Mr
drago,
can
you
interrupt
you
for
two
seconds
here?
What
I
read
off
was
the
updated
july
20th
2022
letter
has
that
changed
since
you're
saying.
O
There
was
no,
it
was
just
an
accidental.
We
had
emailed
spoke
to
fra,
frank
damato,
the
plans
examiner,
who
removed
the
the
cheekbone
violation.
So
it's
just
not
applicable.
Okay,.
O
Correct,
but
on
the
on
the
agenda,
mr
secretary,
it
still
said
four,
so
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
was
clarified
if
the
mailing
went
out
or
what
on
the
agenda.
B
Yeah,
it
was
advertised.
Let's
go
ahead,
mr
drago,
okay,.
O
Sure
so
the
garden
level
of
madame
shared
a
significant
rate
change
on
the
on
the
building.
As
it
exists
unit
one
would
have
a
lower
level
in
an
upper
level,
as
you
can
see
that
that's
the
existing
structure
right
there.
The
total
square
footage
would
be
1410
square
feet
for
that
bi-level
unit.
It
would
have
two
bedrooms,
two
bath
with
nine
foot
ceiling
height
in
the
lower
level,
and
then
it
would
have
a
one
bedroom,
one
bath
kitchen
living
area
in
the
upper
level
with
a
rare
patio.
O
The
second
unit.
This
is
a
two
unit.
Building
is
837
square
foot,
two
bedroom
one
bath
with
kitchen
and
then
a
rear
patio
as
well.
It
also
has
green
space
in
the
back.
That
would
be
shared
by
the
the
two
condo
owners
of
the
building
yeah.
B
R
Yes,
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
and
it's
all
even
easiest
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
our
office
hosted
two
a
buddies
meeting
for
this
project,
one
in
march
22nd
and
the
other
one
on
april
27th.
This
project
was
originally
proposed,
as
four
units
came
down
to
three
and
then
two.
So
letters
are
very
pleased
with
the
two
units.
The
design
and
characteristics
of
the
college
presented.
The
applicant
also
met
with
the
eagles
eagle
hill
civic
association
in
march
and
may
of
this
year.
R
The
group
voted
to
support
the
project
14-2
her
office
also
received
six
letters
of
support,
and
the
applicant
has
worked
with
the
community
all
throughout
the
process,
by
lowering
the
density,
maintaining
the
character
and
the
original
features
of
the
house
like
color
scheme
and
roof
design.
At
this
moment,
our
office
would
like
to
look
for
judgment
support.
Thank
you.
Q
S
B
F
No,
the
only
reason
I
I
don't
think
so.
My
only
concern
was
the
rear
yard
setback,
but
I
mean.
T
B
B
E
L
L
C
U
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
the
the
weber
family,
is
looking
to
expand
its
be
being
this
marginally.
I
believe,
there's
377
additional
square
feet
that
will
be
added
the
issues
that
were
raised
in
public
meetings.
B
Ask
you,
mr
sweeney,
so
this
tell
us
about
the
living
space
in
the
basement.
U
V
B
And
since
their
violation
is
roof
structure,
restrictions
tell
us
about
the
what's
going
on
up
there.
U
Yes,
madam
chief
roof
structure
violations,
the
change
in
profile
they're,
having
dormers
on
the
front
and
on
the
rear,
those
were
were
brought
to
the
attention
of
the
applicant
by
a
couple
of
the
butters
they
have
down
both
of
those
dramas
and
at
this
point
in
time
we
have
letters
of
support
from
from
the
inviter
on
the
left
and
the
butter
on
the
right.
G
N
U
L
Yeah
also,
in
addition
to
florida
ceiling
height,
it
would
be
helpful
to
know
the
florida
great
height
it
looks
like
most
of
the
basement
is
below
grade.
B
X
Conor
yep
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
honor
with
the
mayor's
office
neighborhood
services
at
this
time,
our
opposite
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board
we
held
in
the
butter's
meeting
on
may
2nd
concerns
regarding
the
height
size
and
dormers
were
addressed
by
the
applicant
and
development
team.
The
applicant
has
worked
closely
with
the
neighborhood
and
so
far
our
office
received
no
letters
of
support
or
opposition,
although
at
the
abutters
meeting
one
butter
did
verbally
indicate
their
support.
That
would
refer
to
the
board.
Thank.
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members.
Board.
We
recommended
approval
with
design
review.
It's
in
the
neighborhood
design,
overlay
district.
B
And
also
to
inform
all
participants,
we
have
a
six
member
board
and
you
need
five
members
and
support
for
your
for
your
case
to
be
approved.
Also.
If,
given
that
fact,
if
you
would
like
to
request
an
administrative
deferral,
you
are
welcome
to
do
so.
Okay,
let's
move
to
the
next
case,.
C
On
your
next
case,
calling
voa
134
6292
101
to
117
atlantic
avenue,
this
is
a
change
of
arc
of
5
57
square
feet,
former
ground
floor,
restaurant,
the
living
room
to
kinder
care
day
care
center
and
renovate
and
connect
to
an
adjacent,
existing
1,
548
square
foot
day
care
center.
The
violation
article
54
section
12
the
day
care
center
is
conditionally
used
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please.
Y
Go
ahead,
mr
carrillo.
Good
morning,
madam
chairman
of
the
board,
we
are
before
you
asking
to
convert
space
in
the
mercantile
building,
which
is
not
the
waterfront
or
the
granite
block
that
area,
and
this
space,
as
indicated,
had
been
a
full-service
restaurant
timber
care,
operates
that
smaller
space
to
the
right
of
it.
Currently
they've
been
20
years
now.
Additionally,
they
have
other
spaces
built
in
the
far
end.
Y
Z
B
Okay
42
to
68,
kids,
okay,
and
we
know
that
this
needs
approval
from
the
state
as
a
daycare
facility,
I'm
assuming
it
meets
chapter
99
requirements
as
a
public
space
space
of
public
accommodation.
N
Y
From
the
right
cab
site,
so
you
see
the
atrium
on
the
right
of
that
picture.
You'd
be
able
to
access
the
a
thing.
N
B
But
but
I
do
think
that's
important
in
case
of
an
emergency
is
there
other?
Is
there
other
accessible
spaces?
If
you
have
children
who
need
that.
AA
Y
Openings
into
the
atrium,
if
you
look
at
the
plant,
you'll
see
the
multiple.
AB
Y
Of
exiting
the
space
into
the
atrium,
the
main
part
of
the
building
that
helped
me
exit
that.
X
Yes,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
connor
newman
with
the
mayor's
office
neighborhood
services
at
this
time,
the
mayor's
obviously
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board
our
office
held
in
the
butters
meeting
on
june
6..
From
my
understanding,
no
concerns
were
raised,
which
is
the
active
civic
association.
That
area
felt
that
the
applicant
did
not
need
to
come
and
present
to
the
to
their
board.
They
wished
them
the
best
and
offered
their
support
as
well
with
that
we
referred
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
C
G
B
Okay:
let's
get
a
motion,
emotional.
E
N
Do
go
ahead.
I
do
want
to
recommend
that
the
applicant
does
reach
out
to
the
to
the
neighbors,
because
I
did
read
that
in
the
letter
some
concerns
regarding
delivery
of
vehicles
and
engines
being
on
for
a
period
of
time.
L
B
All
those
in
favor-
oh
sorry,
I'm
sorry.
I
keep
going
back
into
my
bad
habit.
Mr
fortune
hi
alan
hi
dong,
hey
rogero,
hi,
better,
I
arrawgio
also
also
in
support.
Some
motion
carries
with
a
strong
recommendation
to
reach
out
to
neighbors
to
address
all
traffic
and
drop-off
issues.
C
Following
your
next
case,
calling
doa
one
three,
two,
eight
seven,
seven,
six
one
twenty
one
st
patal
street.
This
is
a
renovated
top
floor
of
unit
four
to
relocate
kitchen,
recapture,
formerly
interior
space
and
interior
and
refinish
the
existing
deck
area.
The
violations
article
41
section
5,
the
far
proposed-
exceeds
two
additions.
Proposed
proposed
exceeds
45
feet
in
height
and
article
41,
section
6,
rooftop
additions.
AC
B
Tell
us
what's
being
proposed
here.
AC
On
the
the
current,
the
unit
number
four
is
split
between
two
floors
level:
four
and
level:
five,
the
level
five.
They
have
a
roof
deck
and
they
face
the
rear
alleyway,
where
the
level
five
actually
faces
st
petals
street.
So
the
back,
we
are
looking
to
add
on
217
square
feet,
basically
to
the
left
side
of
the
building
you
can
see
where
we
are
proposing
to
include
a
kitchen
and
that
basically
the
small
corner
in
the
bottom.
There
is
the
proposed
edition,
the
in
speaking
with.
AC
That's
correct
the
line
going
horizontal
where
it
shows
the
window.
That's
the
current
demising
wall
and
the
whole
back
is
existing
roof
deck.
So
we're
proposing
to
include
the
livable
space
for
kitchen.
B
X
Yes,
spanish
chair
members
of
the
board,
conor
newman
with
the
mayor's
office
services.
Ward
knows:
we've
had
a
lot
of
turnover
with
staff.
I
don't
have
a
lot
of
information
on
the
community
process.
I
can
say
that
our
office
has
not
received
any
recent
letters
for
border
opposition,
aren't
aware
of
any
concerns
at
this
time
with
that
would
defer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
B
Okay,
mr
mr
hampton,
what's
the
bpda's
recommendation.
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
We
recommended
approval.
I
think
this
falls
under
the
jurisdiction
of
landmarks,
so
we'll
kick
it
to
them.
D
AC
C
Following
your
next
case,
calling
voa
115,
269
18
granite
street,
this
is
repair
and
replace
three
red
decks
and
extend
the
room.
The
violation,
data
combined
section,
one
reconstruction,
an
extension
of
a
non-conforming
building,
article
65,
section,
nine,
insufficient

job
setback,
name
and
address
for
the
record.
B
It's
so
it's
a
three
family
in
a
two
family
district.
You
want
to
add
us
additional
room
and
replace
the
decks.
It's
better.
How
were
the
plants?
I
don't
care,
the
plants
are
adequate.
You
know
I
had
a
quick
glance
at
the
parking.
Did
you
did
you
see
how
that
works?
Does
it
work?
Fine.
V
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members,
the
board
kevin
chen
here
from
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services
we
held
in
a
butters
meeting
on
may
23
2022.
We
receive
no
concern
from
the
community
and
futures
corner.
Civic
association
is
in
support
for
this
matter.
At
this
point,
our
office
would
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
woman.
Thank
you.
F
AF
B
C
AG
Yes,
good
morning,
this
is
attorney
joseph
pastor,
the
internet
guard
that
knocks
my
power
out.
So
I'm
calling
it
on
my
phone
and
I
do
apologize
to
the
boy
so
good
morning,
mr
fortune,
members
of
the
board,
joseph
feaster
from
the
law
firm
of
jane
torpy,
175
federal
street
suite
1500
boston.
AG
All
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Madam
chair.
My
client
was
has
submitted
an
application
to
to
build
a
four-family
residence
on
this
property
at
15
parkman
street.
AG
While
there
is
a
violation,
that's
listed
as
far
as
talking
that
has
been
corrected,
but
before
I
have
the
architect
ben
lee
speak
to
this
particular
matter.
I
wanted
to
give
the
board
a
sense,
because
it's
going
to
be
some
comments
mentioned
regarding
the
community
process,
and
I
would
like
to
set
the
stage
for
that.
If
I
might,
madam
cheer
is
that?
Okay,
yes,.
B
Please
please
hustle
along.
AG
Okay,
I
will
hustle
along
for
sure
in
in
this
particular
case.
My
my
client
met
on
two
occasions,
both
with
the
fields
corner,
neighborhood
association
and
then
later
on,
with
saint
mark's
and
state
marxist.
The
last
meeting
was
in
january
of
2022.
AG
They
were
told
by
field's
corner
that
amongst
fields,
corner
association
and
state
marks
that
saint
marks
will
take
the
odd
number
side
of
the
street,
et
cetera.
My
client
met
with
them
with
saint
mark's
at
that
particular
time
in
january,
during
the
earlier
meetings
that
they
had
during
2021.
AG
They
made
some
changes
to
that
which
are
reflected
in
the
drawings
which
you
have.
There
were
some
discussion
only
there
were
no
changes
made
from
the
january
26th
meeting
with
saint
mark's.
AG
However,
my
client
and
I
wasn't
involved
in
a
community
process
that
sent
a
letter
in
may,
based
upon
somewhat
conflicting
conversations
between
the
board
of
people.
Sorry.
B
You
know,
mr
I'm
sorry
to
interrupt
you,
but
I
realize
that
you
might
have
missed
the
earlier
part
of
the
meeting
if
you
want
on
your
phone.
But
this
is
a
six
member
board
and
you
need
five
members
in
support.
AG
There
may
be
a
question
raised
about
whether
the
plans
submitted
to
saint
mark's
were
different
than
the
ones
that
are
here
and
I'll
have
that
presented
to
the
voice
the
board
has.
I
will
have
the
architect
ben
lee,
speak
to
that,
but
I'll
say
at
this
point
that
that
is
not
the
case.
Additionally,
there
are.
We
have
15
letters
of
support,
many
of
the
abutters
to
this
particular
property.
AG
AG
The
community
process
and
the
last
piece
I'll
mention
the
community
process
is
that
as
procedure
is
with
the
with
the
board
of
appeals,
we
do
not
get
to
the
to
the
board
of
appeals
unless
the
mayor's
office,
the
neighborhood
services
representative,
says
that
the
community
process
has
been
completed.
That
brings
us
here
and
now.
If
mr
lee
can
talk
to
you
about
these
specifics
on
the
project.
B
Yes,
go
ahead
and
please,
mr
lee
talk
to
us
because
I
missed
mr
fisa.
Thank
you
for
putting
it
in
context,
because
my
constant
was
about
this
full
family
in
a
two-family
zoning
district.
But
mr
lee,
please
go
ahead
and
very
quickly
talk
through
all
the
violations.
AH
Yes,
this
is
minnesota
benjamin
lee
and
I'm
with
michael
washington,
architects,
1208
w
parkway
on
suite
21
west
roxbury.
So
we
are
proposing
four
units
and
the
violations.
AH
B
AH
AH
B
N
I
would
like
to
know
if
your
director
butter
is
15
17
and
13
support
of
the
project.
AG
Yes,
they
answer
that
question.
Specifically,
the
answer
is
yes:
we
have
14
13
14,
16
17,
as
well
as
8
10,
11,
12
and
others
of
the
15
of
the
15
that
I
mentioned,
and
those
have
been
submitted
to
the
board
to
the
board
already,
but
there
are
15
throughout
the
entire
for
that
foreigners.
N
Okay,
thank
you
because
we
did
receive
about
41
signatures
in
opposition.
L
I'm
just
wondering
how
the
35
foot
height,
compares
to
in
context
compares
to
the
same,
in
particular
the
build
of
the
buildings
on
the
right
or
to
the
right.
The.
AH
Building
to
the
right
is,
I
would
say
they
are
higher
than
35
feet,
because
they
are
elevated
from
steps
the
nature
of
the
the
the
gable
roof.
The
architecture
is
similar
to
this.
To
that
to
the
right
and
then
that's
13,
fragment
217
is
a
menstrual
in
structure
is
two
story,
so
that
will
be
lower
to
the
proposed
building.
AH
X
Yes,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
conor
newman
with
mayorsoft
neighborhood
services,
our
office
held
a
butters
meeting
july
of
last
year.
No
concerns
were
raised
by
abutters
at
that
meeting.
Nevertheless,
concerns
persisted
within
the
saint
mark's
area,
civic
association
with
members
expressing
they
felt
the
home
was
too
large
for
the
lot
it's
located
on.
X
X
I
think
it's
similar
to
what
st
mark's
concerns
were
the
size
of
the
building
for
that
lot.
B
C
Adam
chair
secretary
here
we
do
have
those
we
have
12
opposition
letters
and
signature
of
over
50
in
opposition
as
well.
We
only
have
five
support
letters
in
our
client.
Q
Still
have
a
few
raised
hands
here
is
any
of
the
elected
officials
on
that
like
to
give
testimony
representative
elected
officials.
If
not
I'll,
open
the
floor
to
jordan,
can
you
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record?
Please
hello,.
AI
My
name
is
jordan
laundromat
I
live
at
33
parkman
street
go
ahead
so
just
to
clarify
one
point
that
was
made.
I
believe
there
should
be
a
letter
from
him
at
13
parkman
street,
in
opposition.
So
I
don't
know
if
any
other
residents
there
supported
but
13
that
I
know.
B
AI
You
and
apologies-
I
oppose
this
because
it
is
very
incongruous
with
our
neighborhood.
We
are
mostly
a
single
family
and
two
unit
at
the
turn
built
in
the
turn
of
the
century.
The
one
multi-unit
area
that
we
have
is
at
the
corner
of
dot
f
and
even
those
buildings
are
around
5
000
square
feet,
each
with
each
unit
being
700
to
800
square
feet.
To
have
such
a
large
building
in
the
middle
of
our
area
of
the
block
would
really
impact
the
character
and
the
culture,
and
it
will
also
impact
flooding.
AI
We
already
have
a
lot
of
flooding
on
the
street
and
we
also
have
the
concern
additionally
about
the
wrath
of
community
engagement.
We
were
never
notified
of
any
of
others
meetings.
We
were
not
even
notified
of
this
hearing.
The
saint
mark's
president
is
the
one
who
let
us,
know
thursday
night
slash
friday
morning,
so
there
is
great
concern
of
that.
Thank
you.
Thank.
AJ
Yes
good
morning,
I'm
madam
chair
and
board
members
proposed
construction
plans
for
15
partners.
Feed
is
extremely
too
aggressive
for
this
area.
AJ
The
proposed
four-year
economy
and
construction
at
15
apartments
really
amount
to
a
lack
of
adequate
open
space
and
severely
diminish
the
quality
of
life
for
us
inhabitants
and
neighbors,
and
will
make
the
area
structurally
too,
too.
Crowded.
AG
Madam
chair,
can
I
answer
robert's
address.
He
didn't
give
that
when
he
presented
himself.

well.

Our

AN
Hi
good
morning
chairwoman
and
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
jennifer
schultz
and
I
am
a
permitting
council
on
behalf
of
the
joint
applicants
for
this
project.
I
work
at
sullivan
and
worcester
with
the
business
address
of
one
post
office
square
in
boston.
AN
AN
AN
Yes,
madam
chair,
and
actually
with
the
picture,
that's
on
the
screen
that
shows
the
multiple
colors
and
the
site
plan,
I
think,
is
the
best
one
to
look
at,
so
the
relief
being
sought
is
due
to
the
unique
nature
of
the
site.
This
is
the
site
that
is
in
three
zoning
districts.
As
you
can
see,
it's
the
multi-family
residential
district
in
yellow,
closest
to
beacon
street,
followed
beneath
that
by
the
local
convenience
sub-district
in
pink
and
then
off
on
the
bottom.
AN
Left-Hand
side
of
the
screen
is
a
small
portion
of
an
open
space
district.
In
addition,
running
through
the
site,
is
an
mbta
tunnel
and
easement
area,
and
so,
as
a
result
of
those
three
circumstances
unique
to
the
site,
the
project
has
had
to
build
to
the
edges.
AN
Instead
of
being
able
to
take
up
more
space,
that
would
put
a
load
on
the
tunnel
that
the
mbta
would
prefer
that
we
not
bear.
In
addition,
a
unique
nature
of
the
site
and
the
project
is
that
it
is
surrounded
mainly
by
pdas,
but
because
of
the
split
zone
district.
AN
There
was
a
portion
of
our
site
that
was
not
pda
eligible
and
the
bpda
staff
instructed
the
project
proponent
to
seek
variances
and
conditional
use
permits
instead
of
a
zoning
amendment
in
order
to
make
the
entire
site
pda
eligible,
like
its
adjacent
neighbors,
the
fenway
center
project
and
on
the
other
side
of
the
multi-use
path,
109
brookline
and
so
as
a
result.
We're
seeking
relief
for
far
and
height,
which
comes
from
loading
in
this
sort
of
h-shaped
building
and
then,
as
you
cross
from
one
zoning
district
to
the
other.
AN
You
end
up
with
technically
zero
lot
lines
and
no
setbacks,
because
the
zoning
districts
shift
throughout
the
site.
B
Okay,
the
part
that,
if
you
could
address
is
you
know,
given
the
the
short
side,
the
short
yards
side
yards.
Can
you
tell
us
what
impact
it
could
possibly
have
and
that
there
they
are
seven
and
sixteen
ten
to
seven
to
seventeen
stories?
What
kind
of
impact
shadow
impact
would
it
be.
AN
AP
Chad,
I
can
touch
on
that
as
well.
This
is
andrew
flynn,
the
proponent
we
worked
closely
over
the
past
few
years
with
the
bpda
and
with
all
the
neighborhood
stakeholders
and
abutters
to
manage
the
shadow
impact,
including
most
recently
in
mid
2021
in
the
fall
of
2021.
AP
We
moved
that
building
the
back
left
corner
that
you
see
moved
that
much
farther
away
from
the
others
to
the
southwest
in
order
to
further
mitigate
the
shadow
impact
and
have
it
run
past
them.
AQ
B
AN
Yes,
madam
chair,
so
the
ancillary
parking
is
solely
to
address
eight
surface
spaces
that
are
already
in
existence
and,
in
fact,
in
use
by
the
adjacent
property.
A
condominium
and
so
seeking
relief
for
the
eight
ancillary
spaces
is
to
make
those
spaces
and
the
use
of
those
spaces
control.
They
are
solely
to
be
utilized
by
the
adjacent
condominium
and
not
by
this
project
or
project.
Proponent,
okay,.
AN
It
is
829
through
833
beacon
street
owned
by
david
lepidus,
as
trustee
of
the
cypress
royalty
trust.
Okay,.
B
So
should
this
be
approved,
this
should
go
into
the
record
that
it's
ancillary
parking
to
829
to
833,
okay
and
tell
us
about
this.
393
residential
units
tell
us
about
the
breakdowns
of
studios,
ones,
twos,
etc.
The
number
of
square
proposed
square
feet
and
if
there's
any
percentage
in
there,
that's
affordable.
AN
Madam
chair,
so
I'll
just
begin
by
noting
that
we
are
in
fact
seeking
less
relief
than
what
we
originally
requested
because
we
have
removed
one
story
you
see
in
what
was
just
on
the
screen
in
negotiations
and
discussions
with
our
butters.
We
agreed
to
remove
that
one
story
which
drops
the
number
of
units
from
393
to
377,
but
with
that,
in
terms
of
the
breakdown,
I
will
pass
it
back
to
andrew
flynn
from
scape
to
give
you
those
details.
AP
With
regards
to
the
units
to
your
question,
madam
chair,
we
work
closely
with
the
stapled
into
city
council's
office
in
the
neighborhood
to
increase
the
amount
of
onsite
affordable
from
the
required
13
to
15
percent,
so
30
will
be
at
70
percent
ami
and
then
an
additional
2
units
will
be
at
100
ami,
bringing
15
of
the
total
units
of
the
affordable
income
restricted
units
with
regards
to
the
unit
mix
of
the
377
units,
as
jim
referenced.
35
of
them
are
studios.
100
of
them
are
one
bedrooms,
13.
B
A
A
B
Oh
well,
okay,
okay,
and
so,
if
they're
compact
living
tell
us
about
the
shared
space
and
the
activity
in
the
shared
space.
A
So
for
these
units
they
do
have
a
very
expansive
amenity
space.
On
the
first
floor
that
ranges
from
around
14
000
square
feet
and
everything
from
kind
of
like
weworky
areas,
to
common
dining
areas,
to
gyms
fitness,
private
dining
areas
and
things
like
that.
B
And
will
this
space
also
be
open
to
the
53
family
patient
units?
They.
A
Actually
have
their
own
common
spaces,
which
is
much
more
of
a
different
atmosphere.
Obviously,
it's
a
place
of
support
and
of
interaction
for
the
families
that
are
existing
there,
so
they
have
their
own
floor
of
amenity
space
as
well
as
an
outdoor
space
that
is
in
between
the
two
buildings.
B
Okay
and
let's
just
see
how
the
plants
must
better
get
them
together,
plants
are
adequate.
Any
questions
from
the
board.
A
There
currently
is
one
well
there's,
there's
a
roof
deck
that
is
on
the
first
floor,
second
floor,
first,
floor,
roof,
but
second
floor
for
the
bch
family
center
that
you're
looking
at
right
now
in
the
center
and
then
up
on
the
tenth
story.
On
the
left
side,
there
is
a
kind
of
a
more
modest
amenity
space
for
the
residents,
and
that
is
actually
a
communal
garden
area.
So
it's
not
a
place
of
gathering
but
more
a
place
of
a
place
where
each
unit
may
have
a
space
for
gardening.
A
E
A
If,
if
you
could
scroll
down
to
the
plans,
the
first
floor
plan,
it
kind
of
winds
from
the
northeast
of
the
site
through
the
connector
building
to
the
southwest
of
the
site
so
up,
I
think
one
more.
There
you
go
so
oops.
A
A
There
for
the
amenity
space
of
the
residences
correct,
there
is
there's
a
there's
fitness
areas,
so
there's
a
yoga
gym
area,
there's
a
common,
dining
area.
So
if
residents
you
know
want
to
come
down
and
have
events
down
there,
they
can
go
down
there,
there's
also
places
for
them
to
work
conference
rooms,
smaller
huddle
rooms
and
things
like
that
that
run
through
it
as
well
as
kind
of
lobby
space
and
just
general
lounge
areas.
A
AP
Speak
to
that,
that
was,
we
worked
closely
with
the
ottoman
circle
neighborhood
association,
regarding
the
prospect
presence
of
retail
on
that
corner
and
in
working
with
them
there
was
a
request
to
remove
that
retail
so
as
not
to
inadvertently
over
activate
that
that
street
furniture.
That's
why
the
retail
is
there.
X
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
conor
newman
with
the
mayor's
office
neighborhood
services,
this
time,
the
mayor's
office
for
a
judgment
to
the
board.
This
proposal
went
through
a
lengthy
people-led
community
process
and
also,
as
we've
heard,
the
applicant
reached
out
and
worked
with
several
civic
associations
active
in
that
area.
We
understand
there
are
a
lot
of
voices
in
the
community
that
were
excited
about
additional
housing
being
added,
as
well
as
some
concerns
regarding
pickup
and
drop-off
generated
outside
of
the
building
and
the
potential
of
students
moving
into
these
community
communities.
Q
I'm
sure
you
have
a
few
raised
hands
I'll
start
with
dolores.
Can
you
state
your
name
and
address
foreign.
AR
Thank
you
and
my
apologies
to
dolly
who's
done
a
lot
of
work
on
this,
so
you'll
hear
from
her
in
a
moment.
I
just
wanted
to
express
my
strong
support
to
the
board
for
this
proposal.
AR
One
of
them
is
the
fact
that,
obviously,
this
family
housing
for
families
at
the
most
vulnerable
moment
of
their
lives
when
a
child
is
sick,
is,
I
think,
an
important
hospitality
thing
for
us
to
provide-
and
it's
again
again
been
repeated
as
the
community
is
something
we're
proud
to
provide
here,
the
multi-use
path
which
the
which
the
project's
providing
a
key
connector
for.
AR
It's
really
important
for
me
and
the
boston
transportation
department
in
terms
of
creating
that
multimodal
connection
in
fenway,
and
we
have
such
a
traffic
snarl
there
that
it
makes
a
huge
difference
to
have
that
running
through
the
middle.
But
the
big
thing
I
want
to
stress
is
that
in
the
fenway
I'm
seeing
just
tons
of
proposals
that
are
all
commercial
lab
office
and
it's
it's
creating
increased
workforce
demand
to
work
in
the
area,
but
really
not
seeing
parallel
housing,
and
this
project
is
an
exception
to
that.
AR
So
an
example
of
that
would
be
that
we
actually
looked
at
the
report
generated
on
the
bpda
website
about
this
specific
catchment
area,
and
here
only
6.6
of
households
have
a
member
with
a
disability
versus
22.7
percent
city-wide
that
speaks
to
the
old
and
very
inaccessible
housing
stock,
and
so
an
example
of
something
the
applicant
did.
Was
they
agreed
to
double
their
number
of
required
ada
units
from
5
to
10?
AR
There's
also
only
5.7
families
with
children
here,
whereas
for
that
number
is
22.4
percent
citywide
that
led
the
applicant
to
actually
shift
the
mix
of
their
building
to
have
more
two
and
three
bedroom
units
than
prior
and
then,
as
was
mentioned
by
the
applicant
they've,
also
agreed
to
add,
in
addition
to
doing
the
affordable
housing
on
site,
add
two
percent
kind
of
moderate
income
housing
and
what's
neat
about
that,
is
both
that
that
middle
income
tranche
is
something
that
the
fenway
zoning
specifically
calls
for,
but
they
also
agree
to
put
it
below
the
maximum
payment
standard
for
our
bha
voucher
households,
so
it'll
actually
be
accessible
both
to
those
moderate
income,
households
and
households
that
might
hold
a
voucher
and
for
your
reference.
AR
Bha
mobile
voucher
boulders
make
up
five
percent
of
city-wide
residents,
but
they
only
make
up
point
three
percent
of
residents
in
this
catchment
area.
So
I
really
felt
like
they
partnered
with
me
on
okay.
AR
How
do
we
help
make
a
part
of
the
city
that
isn't
accessible
to
certain
protected
classes
according
to
fair
housing
law,
more
accessible
in
this
housing
and
and
then
just
worked
again
and
again
with
the
audubon
circle,
neighborhood
association
and
as
you
see
from
the
support
letter-
and
I
won't
go
into
it
because
I
know
dolores
is
on,
but
I
think
have
made
some
really
substantial
commitments
and
have
made
the
project
better.
So
I'm
strongly
in
support
madam
chair,
and
I
hope
that
you
that
the
board
will
see
fit
to
approve
this
today.
B
Counselor
I
like
your
emphasis
on
thoughtfulness
on
on
statistics,
and
I
know
you
have
a
background
in
housing
so
that
one
of
my
questions
was
this
70
percent
and
100
percent
ami.
B
AR
Yes,
so
thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
actually
that
gives
me
a
chance
to
expand
on
something
that
I
feel
really
passionate
about,
which
is
so
really
the
best
way
that
we
can
get
those
like
zero,
ten
percent,
twenty
percent,
thirty
percent
forty
percent,
fifty
percent
ami
households
into
these
inclusionary
units
is
actually
by
pairing
up
a
federal
subsidy
with
our
inclusionary
policy,
because
the
reality
is
is
that
to
house,
for
instance,
a
family
like
much
of
our
bha
and
and
voucher
portfolio.
Families
are
actually
at
that
10
20
30
ami
mark.
AR
But
to
achieve
that
in
terms
of
just
a
straight
up,
profit
transfer
right
with
these
plans
would
involve
many
fewer
units
for
deeper
affordability,
and
so
what
I
think
is
really
exciting
is
the
idea
of
looking
at
places
where
we
actually
have
the
federal
government
offering
you
know
deep
subsidy
to
those
families,
which
is
what
we
have
in
the
voucher
program.
But
currently
those
families
can't
find
a
unit
in
the
city
of
boston
to
rent
a
lot
of
the
time
or
they're,
just
only
able
to
find
it
in
a
couple
very
small
pockets.
AR
The
city,
which
is
part
of
what
we
see
driving
segregation,
and
so
that
was
really
you
know
something
I
partnered
with
at
817
819
beacon
that
I'm
actually
hoping
becomes
a
model,
and
it's
something
I'm
going
to
the
idp
technical
advisory
on
is
actually
having
a
level
that
we
peg
to
being
voucher
eligible.
So
the
market
rents
at
these
sites
are
just
slightly
above
the
maximum,
often
for
the
voucher
holders,
but
by
bringing
them
down
here
to
that
hundred
percent
ami
level.
AR
B
And
I
think
the
other
question
is
that
how
many
bha
residents
are
moving
from
bha
developments
to
developments
like
this,
so
they
so
they
and
their
kids
become
more
fully
integrated
into
a
community.
AR
Yeah
that
has
to,
I
think,
be
our
whole
objective
with
affirmatively.
Furthering
fair
housing
is
to
make
that
possible
and
the
biggest
change
the
city
made
back
in
2019
was
we
changed
the
voucher
rules
to
small
area,
fair
market
rents,
which
I'm
sorry
I'm
getting
very
in
the
weeds,
but
basically
what
it
did
was
it
let
that
maximum
rent
that
a
voucher
could
pay
float
with
the
zip
codes,
average
rent?
And
so
what's
nice
about
that?
AR
Is
it
actually
opened
a
whole
bunch
of
expensive,
zip
codes
in
the
city
of
boston
to
bha
families
for
the
first
time?
So
I
think
the
new
work
of
the
last
few
years
is
getting
that
word
out
and
providing
the
support
tools
to
help.
You
know
landlords
know
that
they're
obligated
to
rent
to
these
families
that
you
can't
discriminate
against
a
voucher
holder
in
the
state
of
massachusetts
and
then
help
voucher
holders
know
that
you
know
more
of
the
city
is
accessible
to
them
and
we've
been
seeing
in
the
bha
data.
AR
Some
modest
gains
in
terms
of
seeing
those
families
dispersed
more
across
the
city
and
I
think,
there's
a
lot.
We
could
do,
though,
to
be
more
proactive
about
it,
and
I
do
think
that
the
afh
zoning
amendment,
which
most
projects
that
that
applies
to
have
not
made
its
way
to
your
board
yet
because,
obviously
they
have
to
go
through
the
bpda
process.
The
large
projects,
I
think,
is
going
to
going
to
help
us
start
cracking
that
nut
in
a
really
serious
way.
AR

Thank
you.

you

your
detail.

else

B
H
E
C
B
Thank
you,
and-
and
thank
you
for
reminding
this
is
a
six-member
board
today
and
for
any
approval.
You
need
five
members
in
support,
so
applicants
can
request
a
a
deferral
and
an
administrative
deferral
until
there
is
a
four
seven
member
board.
H
C
AS
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
kyle
smith
of
cetera
law,
business
address
of
181
wells
avenue
in
newton
massachusetts
on
the
call
with
me
as
well.
I
do
have
the
applicants,
the
approach
architect
and
then
the
intended
day-to-day
manager
for
the
facility.
B
So
please
describe
to
us
what's
being
proposed.
AS
AS
The
applicants
have
not
proposed
to
any
type
of
exterior,
looks
for
maybe
just
aesthetic
renovations
or
changes,
but
any
changing
of
the
building's
footprint
height
dimensions
or
otherwise.
So
we
have
a
pre-existing
structure
that
we're
looking
to
basically
modify
the
interior
to
create
a
marijuana
cultivation
facility
with
no
intended
retail
sale.
B
AS
Yep,
so
the
the
square
footage
of
the
current
existing
warehouse
is
approximately
twenty
thousand
twenty
six
thousand
square
feet
with
a
lot
of
a
lot
size
of
approximately
thirty
seven
thousand
six
hundred
square
feet,
it's
accessible
via
walter
street.
You
know
with
primary
parking
delivery
vehicles
or
otherwise
to
be
housed
and
stored
and
being
loaded
and
unloaded
off-site.
We're
sorry.
B
Off
street
okay
and
how
many
vehicles
do
you
anticipate
active
being
activated
trucks
versus
staffing.
AT
Yeah
so
roughly
we'll
have
about
40
employees,
and
hopefully
most
of
the
employees
anywhere
between
40
to
60
employees
and
most
of
the
employees
should
be
from
the
community
of
hyde
park.
So
we
anticipate
most
of
them
to
be
either
walking
and
commuting
by
bus
or
a
bicycle.
So
primarily
we
have
enough
parking
for
about
30
payphones
or
more
because
the
lot
is
also
owned
by
the
same
owner.
That
has
multiple
thousand
dollars
a
lot
out
behind
the
building.
AT
AT
So
we
anticipate
about
two
meet
two
vans.
You
know
roughly
a
few
times
a
week
to
to
do
out
and
just
make
some
deliveries
schedule.
Deliveries
would
be
basically
scheduled.
B
Okay
and
tell
us
what
so
cultivation
means
grow
and
processing.
How
does
what
well,
I
guess
the
question
is:
will
processing
admin
emit
any
odors
or
other
other
stuff
into
the
air.
AT
B
Okay,
so
drying
will
be
okay,
let's
see
any
how
the
plants
must
better,
but
I'm
sure
the
plants
are
adequate.
Any
questions
from
the
board.
AU
Good
morning,
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
board,
this
is
danielle
fonseca.
With
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
I
hosted
in
a
butters
meeting
for
this
on
our
community
meeting
on
april
19th.
There
were
48
people
in
attendance
and
during
this
meeting,
the
applicants
did
receive
support
and
opposition
for
the
cultivation
site.
AU
One
of
the
concerns
and
topics
of
discussion
did
consist
of
security
and
safety,
as
some
residents
did
have
questions
pertaining
to
crime
and
if
the
marijuana
on
site
could
be
a
potential
target
for
illegal
activity
or
increased
crime
in
the
area,
our
office
has
received
letters
of
support
and
opposition
which
have
been
sent
to
the
board
for
review.
Some
additional
concerns
consisted
of
congestion
and
density
of
the
area,
environmental
concerns,
resources
and
energy
drainage.
AU
AU
Our
office
has
received
letters
of
support
from
elected
officials
again
community
stakeholders,
a
letter
from
the
president
of
the
high
park,
central
river
neighborhood
group
and
the
high
park
neighborhood
association
at
this
time,
we'd
like
to
defer
to
the
board
for
judgment.
Thank
you.
AV
Q
Can
you
have
a
raised
hand
by
martin,
send
your
request
on
you?
Can
you
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record?
Please.
AB
AB
B
AT
Mark
are
you
on
this
call?
I
have
my
chief
of
security
on
this
call.
Hopefully
you
can
answer
those
questions.
AT
AS
All
right,
madam
chair,
whether
while
they're
trying
to
accommodate
we
do
have
security
plans
that
have
been
submitted
to
and
reviewed
by,
the
bcb.
AS
B
AT
Correct
we
plan
on
using
solar
panels
to
subsidize
you
know
us
using
you
know:
electric
electricity
on
the
site.
B
Okay,
given
all
that
information
and
vpda
did
you
have
a
recommendation.
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
We
recommended
approval.
We
couldn't
tell
if
there
were
going
to
be
any
exterior
changes.
If
so,
maybe
we
get
them,
but
we're
on
record
as
being
in
support.
N
C
AS
B
So
you
know
take
it.
Take
a
couple
minutes
tell
us
how
many
square
footage,
how
many
square
footage,
what's
the
square
footage
of
the
slot
and
tell
us
a
little
bit
about
hours
of
operation,
and
things
like
that.
So
we
can
understand
this
what's
happening
here.
AS
Certainly
so
I'll
let
the
owner
discuss
for
the
applicant
discuss
the
hours
of
operation,
but
as
a
kind
of
brief
change
from
prior.
This
is
intended
to
be
a
dispensary
they're,
calling
this
low
key
number
two.
These
applicants
have
been
before
this
board
for
the
approval
of
loki
dispensary
location,
one
located
at
571
b,
washington
street
in
dorchester,
which
should
become
operational,
the
third
or
fourth
quarter
of
this
year.
AS
So
they
do
have
that
prior
experience
and
longevity
of
trying
to
bring
another
dispensary
on
site
or
sorry
online,
in
contrast,
254
walter,
the
intent
here,
the
applicants
are
current
owners
of
a
parcel
of
land
that
exceeds
about
69
000
square
feet,
they're
existing
tenants
on
site,
so
they
do
control
the
parcel
they
have
owned
it
since
2019
they
have
exclusive
use.
AS
Arguably,
if
parking
exists
to
the
rear
of
the
parcel
that
can
accommodate
approximately
20
to
30
spaces
and
for
which,
if
there
ends
up
being
issues
with
parking
in
the
future,
they
can
work
to
expand
the
current
facility.
They
have
a
lot
of
currently
unutilized
land
in
that
approximately
acre
and
a
half.
So
this
is
intended
for
retail
marijuana
distribution,
in
contrast
to
the
prior
matter,
which
is
for
cultivation.
AT
B
Okay,
so
because
I'm
assuming
your
catchment
area
includes
dedham
okay,
how
are
the
plans,
mrs
better
I'm.
J
At
the
west
roxbury
neighborhood
council
meeting,
the
zoning
committee
voted
5-1
in
support
of
the
project
we
have
received
both
letters
of
support
and
opposition
for
the
project,
most
notably
a
letter
of
support
from
the
west
roxbury
civic
improvement
association.
J
I
would
also
like
to
recognize
the
applicant's
commitment
to
just
being
very
available
for
the
community
and
other
civic
groups,
and
at
this
time
we
defer
to
the
judgment
of
the
board.
Thank
you.
C
Madam

O
You,
madam
chairman,
members
of
the
board
attorney
jeff
drago,
with
drago
and
toscano,
with
business
actress
of
11
beacon
street
here
on
behalf
of
the
applicant,
and
also
I
have
eric
zacherson
the
architect
just
to
point
out.
This
project
was
approved
by
this
board
on
february,
8th
2022..
O
The
reason
that
we
are
back
here
is
for
some
missing
violations
that
were
not
advertised
when
my
client
that
this
was
already
approved.
We
haven't
changed
anything
from
that
prior
approval
when
my
client
went
to
pull
his
building
permit
at
some
of
his
plans.
It
was
found
at
isd
by
isd
that
three
violations
were
missing.
O
Sure
so
that
was
approved,
madam
chair,
that
was
one
of
the
violations
that
so.
B
I'm
sorry
if
it
wasn't
cited,
we
weren't
considering
it.
So
let's
talk
about
that
basement
unit.
It.
O
O
So
the
it's
substantially
above
grade
it.
It
is
a
unit
one,
so
it
would
be
a
two
bedroom
at
twelve
hundred
and
twenty
square
feet
to
point
out
that
there's
existing
living
space
now
in
the
current
building.
O
O
B
Okay-
and
let
me
see
so,
it's
a
it's
a
stand-alone
unit
in
the
basement.
O
It
is
it's
being
proposed
as
a
standalone
unit
right
now.
It's
connected
to
the
top
floor.
B
Okay,
we
just
want
to
hear
about
okay,
and
how
are
the
plans
must
better
and
I'm
sure
the.
L
Yeah,
can
we
just
see
an
elevation,
so
we
can
see
mr
drago
said
it
was
substantially
above
great,
but
like
you
can.
O
B
T
O
B
R
Yes,
good

madam

at

hosted
on

2021
abutters
thought
it
was
a
good
addition
to
the
neighborhood.
The
applicant
also
met
with
the
eagle
hill
civic
association
and
received
support
on
february
of
this
year,
the
community
misplaced,
the
fact
that
their
facade
was
not
changing
and
the
characteristic
of
the
house
was
obtained.
So
at
this
moment
our
office
would
like
to
refer
all
judgment
to
the
board.
Thank
you.

of
state
law,
the
business
address
of
181
wells
avenue
in
newton
on
the
call
of
mine.
I
do
have
the
proponent
and
applicant
and
the
project
architect.
AS
So,
madam
chair,
just
to
refresh
your
and
the
rest
of
the
board's
memory,
we've
been
before
you
now.
This
will
be
the
third
time
we
did.
The
proponent
was
able
to
secure
138
west
eighth
street,
and
we
have
been
before
you
with
original
plans
for
a
three
family
on
136
west
8th
street,
which
we
are
before
you
on
today.
AS
If
you
recall
on
138
west,
it
was
a
pre-existing
single
family
that
was
encroaching
onto
this
parcel.
That
encroachment
was
removed
in
part,
but
the
larger
building
slightly
encroached
and
we
did
seek
a
planned
subdivision
for
which
this
board
approved.
So
we
could
slice
off
a
small
sliver
from
one
three
six
provided
two
one:
three:
eight
to
remove
the
encroachment
altogether
that
was
previously
approved
just
before
presenting
before
you
for
the
approval
for
zoning
relief
for
the
single
family
and
its
expansion
at
138.
AS
The
proponent
was
able
to
secure
134
west
8th
street,
for
which
we
then
sought
to
defer
and
then
cancel
the
original
plans
for
the
proposed
three
family
on
one
three
six.
So
we
are
before
you
today
for
a
combined
aggregate
parcel
of
one
three,
four
and
one
three
six
west
eighth
street-
to
construct
construct
a
four-story
structure
that
is
built
slab
on
grade
that
provides
for
an
ada
unit
on
the
first
floor
for
off-street
parking
spaces
accessible
via
a
garage
and
a
pre-existing,
but
to
be
slightly
relocated.
AS
Existing
curve
cut
on
the
parcel
with
then
three
additional
floors
of
housing,
above
it
consisting
of
an
additional
four
units.
B
This
is
sorry,
this
is
a
proposed
five
family
dwelling
tell
us
about
the
breakdown
of
the
units.
AS
Sure
so,
madam
chair
on
floor,
one
have
both
parking
essentially
to
the
right
of
the
structure
as
you're
looking
at
it
from
one
from
west
eighth,
we
have
an
ada
accessible
unit
to
the
left
side
of
the
structure,
which
is
a
proposed
two
bed,
two
bath
of
approximately
980
or
990
square
feet
on
floor.
Two.
We
have
two
proposed
two
bed,
two
baths
of
about
approximately
eleven
hundred
and
sorry
eleven
hundred
square
feet
and
then
on
floors.
Three
and
four
four.
AS
We
have
duplex
units
which
are
approximately
or
sorry
a
four
bed,
three
bath
with
a
flex
kind
of
office
bed
space
and
they
are
approximately
1900
square
feet.
AS
G
AS
Yes,
madam
chair,
that
is
reflected
right
there
on
that
screen.
It
is
proposed
for
exterior
sorry
internal
square
footage
for
the
respective
units
on
floors.
Two
and
three.
B
And
how?
How
wide
is
that
sidewalk?
Because
we
we're
seeing
more
and
more
of
this,
which
ends
up
having
an
impact
on
the
feeling
of
openness
on
narrow,
sidewalks.
AY
Yep
I
don't
chair
chris
vance,
vance,
architects,
254
bay,
road,
south
hamilton
mass.
The
proposed
projected
bays
are
two
feet
in
depth.
AS
Yes,
madam
chairs,
you
can
envision
in
this
neighborhood
lot.
Sizes
are
small,
most
homes
are
built
from
parcels
or
a
lot
lined
to
a
lot
line,
so
they
are
all
proposed
to
be
compact
spaces.
Our
current
ratio
is
four
parking
spaces
to
five
units.
The
prior
proposed
two
family.
Sorry,
three
family
was
two
spaces
for
three,
so
our
rough
percentage
ratio
of
parking
is
increased.
AZ
C
B
Okay,
okay,
so
let
me
see
so
I
just
need
to
cut
context,
because
this
feels
like
this
isn't
has
been
an
incremental
process.
So
I
just
need
to
know
so.
134
to
136
is
being
proposed
as
a
five
family
tell
us
about
138.
It's
also
in
ownership
of
this
developer.
Right.
AS
AS
B
Okay
and
how
are
the
plants
miss
better,
but
I'm
sure
the
plants
are
adequate.
Any
questions
from
the
board.
L
AS
I
can't
speak
as
to
the
depth
or
the
the
longevity
of
the
street,
but
as
far
as
our
buildings
in
the
meeting
proximity-
yes,
many
of
them
are
slightly
built
on
a
pedestal,
so
the
first
story
begins
approximately.
You
know
three
to
four
feet
off
of
grades,
so
our
structure
is
four
stories
built
slab
on
grades,
so
it
is
slightly
higher
by
about
a
half
story.
L
AS
AS
I
believe
it
is
sub
40
feet
chris.
Can
you
confirm.
L
And
what
is
the
height
of
the
the
tallest
nearby.
AS
Building,
I
would
say
our
structure
to
our
immediate
left
at
approximately
36
and
a
half,
and
then
we
also
control
138.
Do
you
know
the
height
of
that
chris.
G
L
AO
About
that
good
morning,
madam
chair
of
members
of
the
board,
I'm
anna
white
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services
owens,
had
a
butters
meeting
for
134
136
west
8th
street
on
june
9th,
which
was
attended
by
direct
of
others.
Support
was
expressed
for
this
project.
A
letter
support
was
received
and
sent
into
the
board
at
this
time,
we'd
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board.
Thank
you
very
much.
AX
Good
morning,
madam
of
the
chair,
members
of
the
guarana
calderon
from
council
president
flynn's
office,
the
counselor
would
like
to
own
recurring
support
based
on
us
through
community
process
and
good,
safe
compromises
with
neighbors
and
the
civic
group
regarding
the
roof,
decks
and
increasing
parking
as
much
as
possible,
with
respectfully
request
the
pda
design
review
and,
as
the
team
continue
to
work
closely
with
the
neighbors
during
the
construction
phase.
Thank
you.
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board.
We
are
actually
on
the
record
recommending
denial
without
prejudice.
The
proposals
just
because
of
the
parking
and
the
number
of
units
is
excessive.
Actually,
back
in
2021,
we
recommended
approval
of
the
three
family,
so
we
like
the
three
we
hate,
the
five
and
just
mr
ehrlich
just
for
some
sort
of
reference.
The
allowable
height
within
almost
all
of
south
boston,
is
40
feet.
F
So
I
understand
your
concern
that
could
be
dealt
with,
perhaps
through
design
review,
but
they
are
within
the
zoning
height,
but
we
are
on
record
recommending
denial
without
prejudice.
B
B
Okay,
so,
given
all
that
information-
and
may
I
have
a
motion-
please.
N
I
like
to
perform
a
proposal
of
approval
with
two
proviso:
one
is
bpda
design
review,
paying
special
attention
to
that
four-story
setback
to
try
to
resolve
some
of
the
marks
kind
of
comment
in
terms
of
the
typology
that
exists
on
the
site
and
then
the
other
would
be
btd
design
review
to
accommodate
only,
I
believe,
the
three
parking
spaces
and
a
minimum
curb
cut
of
ten
feet.
B
Three
three
parking
and
ten
feet
cub
cut,
and
we
need
to
also,
I
think,
must
better
put
on
the
record
that
we
are
not
providing
approval
of
the
of
any
construction
in
the
flood
hazard
district.
That
would
be
impacted
by
the
flight
acid
district,
correct.
Okay!
Is
there
a
second.
M
B
B
No,
when
when,
when
a
motion
like
this
does
not
carry,
it's
been
denied,
basically
not
to
see
a
five
five
family,
five
story,
building
four-story
building.
BA
B
No,
it's
been
denied
tom.
This
is
this:
is
the
board's
operating
procedure
for
for
years
now
for
decades,
so
it
has
been
denied
okay.
The
next
case,
please
call.
C
Your
next
case
calling
voa
one
two:
nine
nine
three,
seven
five
fifteen
baywood
street.
This
has
changed
arch
from
the
three
family
to
a
four
family,
adding
a
new
rare
stare
violation,
article
56
29.
It's
insufficient
additional
lot
area
per
unit;
article
50,

excessive
far,
article

our

and
address
for

record.
Please.
O
O
Building
the
layout
of
this
building
will
now
be
slab
on
grade,
so
there'd
be
no
basement
living
space
unit.
One
is
a
three
bedroom
two
off
unit.
Two
is
a
three
bedroom
two
bath
unit.
Three
is
a
three
bedroom
two
bath
and
then
the
fourth
floor
unit
that
we're
proposing
to
separate
from
the
third
floor
that
was
approved
as
a
one
bedroom,
one-bedroom
one-bath
unit.
O
Sure
so
the
it's
the
average
square
footage
mountain
chair
is
17
11.50
per
unit
and
then
the
top
floor
is
about
a
thousand
square
feet.
B
Okay,
so-
and
this
is
proposed
or
is
it
already
constructed
so.
O
It
was
the
structure
was
built,
the
exterior
the
walls,
but
the
interior
has
not
been
completed
yet
and
the
other
changes
were
adding
heat
rest
air
to
the
back
of
the
building.
O
The
lot
square
footage
is
4855
square
feet
and
just
to
point
out,
madam
chair,
we're
actually
losing
one
bedroom
by
this
change.
So
the
previous
proposal
was
11.
We're
now
at
10
bedrooms
total.
B
Okay
and
tell
us
about
the
parking,
how
is
the
parking
going
to
be
accommodated.
O
O
There
is
a
parking
plan.
If
you
go
a
little
bit
further
down
right,
there,
yep
and
so
along
baywood,
terrace
there'd
be
a
curb
cut
for
the
six
spaces.
Four
of
them
are
full
size
of
two
of
them
are
compact
spaces,
and
we
still
have
an
area
of
green
in
the
back.
B
Okay,
how
are
the
plants
was
better
and
I'm
sure
the
plants
are
adequate.
Any
questions
from
the
board
is
anybody
here
to
speak
either
in
support
or
in

of
this
proposal.

O

I

we'll
take

the

just
to

out
for
timing.
I
do
know
that
I
believe
mr
rigero
and

will
always
recuse
himself
for
this
applicant.
I'm
not
sure
if
there's
a
time
when
maybe
one
is
not
there
that
we
could
have
at
least
a

I
would
go

Following

is
a

B
G
BB
Okay,
we're
taking
existing
three
family,
it's
in
bad
condition,
renovating
the
property
it
has
decks
on
the
back.
The
floor
plans
are
tight
and
so
we're
going
to
use
some
of
that
deck
space
as
extended
living
space.
There
there'll
be.
B
So
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
what
triggered
this
this
review
by
this
board
is
that
because
of
the
roof
deck
or
what's
triggering
this
review.
B
BB
Nope,
it's
the
existing
side,
yard
conditions.
BB
Okay,
so
basically
we're
gonna
the
first
floor
is
gonna,
have
three
bedroom
unit
and
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
open
it
up
a
little
bit
more
versus
the
old
stand.
Three
fan
three,
you
know
standard
layout
there,
so
you
have
a
master
bedroom,
live
dining
room,
living
room
and
you
have
two
baths.
You
have
a
kitchen
and
then
you
have
a
smaller
deck.
That's
on
the
back
there.
BB
One
unit
number
two
is
also
the
same
piece.
There
three
bedrooms
there,
the
third
unit,
three
bedrooms
again
on
the
top
floor.
The
only
thing
we
have
is
a
roof
deck.
That's
on
the
top,
which
has
a
great
views
of
the
city
of
boston
there.
It
will
be
a
hatch
open
out
onto
that
deck.
That's
there.
P
BB
B
And
is
it
access
to
is
accessible
to
all
units,
so
just
a
top
unit,
all
units?
B
Okay,
how
the
plans
must
matter
out
of
chair
the
plans
are
adequate,
any
questions
from
the
board
and
and
mr
raymond,
this
is
already-
has
been
a
three
family
dwelling
for
as
far
as
the

jacket
is
concerned.
Yes,
okay
is
anybody
here

I've
driven
around
the
entire

to
get
to
get
on

internet,
but
it
was
not
successful.
So
I'm
coming

again
by

joseph

AG
I
represent
the
applicants
who
are
for
this

at

lindhurst.
Madam
ambassador,
I
would
like
for
you
to
have
as
participants
chris
drew
joseph
barry
and
lucian
mcpherson
the
two
owners.
If
you
would
members
of
the
board,
this
is
a
proposal
that
originally
had
been
presented
as
a
three
family.
Some
time
ago
the
applicant
has
gone
to
extensive
neighborhoods
and
a
butter
discussion.
AG
They've
met
with
the
melville
park,
neighborhood
association
on
several
occasions,
and
they
have
come
to
alignment
an
agreement
by
many
of
the
or
most
of
the
abutters
immediately
adjacent
to
this
project.
It
is
now
a
two
family.
I
will.
The
unit
sizes
are
1766
square
feet
and
if
you
would,
I
would
then
have
the
architect
chris
drew
take
you
through
the
project
directly.
BD
Thank
you,
joe,
so
just
to
go
through
our
violations,
real
quick.
We
are
cited
for
use,
which
is
the
two
family
and
one
family
zone.
The
far
is
allowed
it's
0.5
and
we're
at
about
0.6
the
heightened
stories.
This
was
part
of
our
community
process.
One
thing
that
we
did
with
this
building
was:
we
lifted
up
the
first
floor,
pretty
much
to
align
with
the
existing
building
buildings
along
the
street,
which
go
up
about
four
or
five
steps
to
the
first
floor
itself.
BD
So
in
doing
that,
of
course,
it
created
the
height
and
the
height
violation
in
the
stories
is
because
you
know
we
are
a
little
more
than
half
more
than
half
of
the
second
floor
area
below
as
far
as
the
rear
yard
set
back.
This
is
another
something
else
we
had
worked
out
with
the
community.
We
originally
had
this
building
set
forward
about
four
feet
closer
to
the
street
and
it
met
mortal,
but
one
that
desired
from
the
director.
BD
Voters
was
that
we
pushed
this
building
back
about
four
feet:
to
have
better
continuity
along
the
street
in
doing
that,
the
actual
building
itself
is
at
about
40
41.5
set
back
and
required
is
40,
but
the
doghouse
bulkhead
and
the
debt
is
actually
about
36.
So
that's
where
the
rear
yacht
violation
creation
is
so.
The
building
itself
is
very
much.
B
About
tell
us
about
the
rear
yard
insufficiency.
BD
B
Okay
and
parking
is
proposed
in
the
rear
yard.
BD
Yes,
we
have
two
two
off
street
parking
spaces
at
the
back
active
from
the
right
side
of
the
property.
B
And
I
is
this
that
are
these
three
bedrooms
at
1766
or
two
beds.
B
X
Yes,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
conor
newman
with
the
mayor's
office
neighborhood
services.
This
time
the
mayor's
office
deferred
judgment
to
the
board
our
office
hosting
the
butters
meeting
on
march
21st
butters
were
present
and
expressed
warriors
regarding
paving
and
potential
lack
of
green
space,
as
well
as
setback
violations.
Our
office
received
six
letters
of
support
that
were
contingent
upon
the
property
moving
four
feet
forward
from
the
rear
line.
With
that
we
refer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
Q
AZ
Yes
sure
absolutely
it's
kim
desenz!
I
live
at
52
lindhurst
street.
Can
you
hear
me?
Well?
Yes,
please
go
ahead.
Wonderful!
My
only
concerns
here
are.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
front
of
the
building
is
just
in
line
with
the
other
houses
in
the
neighborhood.
I
believe
that
was
the
letter
I
signed
saying
that
I
supported
moving.
AZ
On
the
street,
my
other
concern
is
just
this
is
still
a
very
large
building,
so
I
know
I
I
mean
I
would
appreciate
if
it
was
smaller,
but
those
are
just
my
two,
my
two
pieces
of
feedback,
okay,.
AZ
BE
No,
are
you
speaking
to
me?
Yes,
my
name
is
dorothea
manuela
and
I'm
a
director
of
butter
to
the
property
at
65
in
tourist
street.
I
have
two
questions.
One
of
them
has
to
do
with
the
the
excessive
height
it
is.
We
have
a
concern
that
it's
very
large.
B
So
miss
miss
manuela.
We
just
need
to
know
at
this
point
because
we
suspect
that
through
the
community
process,
a
lot
of
this
has
been
discussed.
Can
you
tell
us
if
you're
in
support
or
in
opposition
and
go
ahead?
Okay,
thank
you.
B
B
Okay,
given
all
that
information,
let's
get
bpd
on
the
racket,
I.
T
Actually
had
my
hand
raised
sorry,
I
think
you
missed
my
hand,
and
I
am
in
the
support
of
what
kim
mentioned
earlier
about
me
and
the
address
for
the
record.
My
name
is
janice
169
linhurst
and
I
am
in
agreement
with
kim
and
about
the
size
of
the
building.
F
You,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
we're
recommending
approval
with
design
review.
We
want
to
maximize
the
most
usable
open
space
and
make
sure
that
the
paving
is
purpose.

an

Walk

Please.
BF
All
right,
I'm
so
sorry
I
was
trying
to
unmute
good
afternoon.
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board.
My
name
is
heather
rovison.
I
am
the
owner
of
324
cornell
street
in
roslindale
and
I'm
I
am
looking
for
relief
for
two
violations.
One
is
it's
currently
a
two
family
and
I'm
looking
to
convert
it
to
a
three
family
and
the
height
requirement.
B
Okay,
so
a
couple
of
questions:
this
is
a
two-family
district.
You
have
to
rationalize
why
this
should
become
a
three
family
because
most
of
the
buildings
adjacent
to
you
are
two
family.
I
live
not
quite
and
so
tell
us
why
there's
a
need
for
a
three
family
here.
It's.
BF
Already,
actually
it's
it's
already
a
second
and
third
floor
and
the
third
floor
is
already
270
square
feet
of
finished
space
and
then
storage.
So
what
I
was
looking
to
do
was
to
convert
it
to
a
three
family.
For
a
few
reasons.
One
is
for
additional.
BF
Availability
for
housing
and
then
two
is
just
to
clean
up
it'll.
Allow
me
to
actually
clean
up
the
whole
building,
just
the
exterior
of
the
building,
the
backyard
and
the
garage
area.
B
Okay,
so
give
us
more
information
about
the
proposed
third
unit,
I'm
assuming
it's
those
how
many
square
feet
is
it
supposed
to
be
sure.
BF
So
it's
it's
a
thousand
fifty
square
feet.
It's
going
to
be
an
open
concept
with
a
kitchen
living
and
dining,
and
then
there's
two
bedrooms
and
one
bath.
So
the
stairs
it
already.
The
the
stairway
from
the
second
to
third
floor
already
exists.
The
front
separate
entrance
already
exists,
so
I
would
be
adding
probably
like
an
additional
700
square
feet.
BF
Sure
floor
to
ceiling
is
eight
foot
with
the
third
floor.
BF
So
I
don't
think,
I'm
I
don't
think
I'm
changing
the
overall
height.
What
I'm
doing
is
expanding.
I
think
the
pitch
of
it
is
exactly
where
it'll
stay.
It's
just
the
expansion
from
the
dormers.
BF
So
so,
where
I'm
located
on
cornell
street
is
actually
my
backyard
is
havana
street,
and
so
it's
a
private
entrance
with
a
driveway
and
a
two-car
garage.
So
currently
I
have
two-car
garage
parking,
but
I
have
I
mean
three
to
four
additional
spaces,
but
I
I
don't
want
to.
I
don't
want
to
make
it
a
a
tarp.
What
I'd
like
to
do
is
have
green
space
and
parking.
N
Man,
I'm
sure
the
plans
are
adequate.
I
just
want
clarification
that
you're
not
altering
the
roof,
the
existing
roof
at
all.
B
BA
N
BC
BF
You
know
what
I
don't
know.
100
I'll
have
to
ask
my
architect.
My
understanding
was
that
in
the
center
of
the
roof,
where
the
height
the
highest
point
of
the
pitch
was
we
were
just
going
to
extend
out
in
dormer.
N
Yes,
so
because
of
your
violation,
it
states
excessive
height,
so
imagine
that
you
are
altering
the
height
of
the
building.
Okay,
do
you
know
what
your
new
height
is.
BF
I
It's
better.
Yes,
this
is
a
it's
a
height
violation
for
stories,
converting
the
attic
into
the
story.
B
The
proposed
the
proposed
pitch
is
has
changed,
but
we
don't
know.
I
guess
by
how
many
feet,
but
let's
go
on.
Is
there?
Are
there
any
questions
from
the
board.
BG
Good
afternoon,
chairman
of
the
board,
my
name
is
liaison.
We
hosted
anna
butters
meeting
for
this
project
on
june
8th
one
of
the
mothers
had
concerns
over
allowing
the
two
family
in
a
three-family
zone
and
some
had
issues
with
density
and
how
it
may
affect
their
property.
But
this
could
have
been.
This
could
be
solved
with
the
defense
that
was
brought
up
at
the
end
of
an
effects
and
heather's
team
did
reach
out
to
their
closest
neighbor
association.
BG
Q
Him
it
just
popped
up,
one
second,
a
door
door
name
and
address
for
the
record.
Please.
BH
All
right,
320
point
now
on
the
directive
letter
I
have
some
reservations
in
in
terms
of
the
switching
from
a
two
to
three
family,
given
the
kind
of
overall
makeup
of
the
neighborhood
and
the
sliding
you
know
the
the
future
of
what
this
might
portend
for
the
neighborhood.
So
that
is
my
biggest
reservation.
I
was
not
able
to
attend
the
initial
butter
zoom
meeting
and
based
off
conversations.
I've
had,
it
seems,
like
folks,
have
a
lot
of
reservations
just
in
the
overall
plan
and
scope.
BH
So
my
biggest
reservation
for
the
board
to
consider
is
this:
going
from
a
tube.
B
Hey
and
and
as
I
had
mentioned
before-
I'm
not
a
direct
about
it,
but
I
do
travel
that
street
a
lot
and
it
is,
for
the
most
part,
pretty
much
one
on
one
side
and
choose
on
the
other
side,
so
this
would
move
it
in
a
new
direction
anyway,
given
all
the
information
we've
had.
Can
I
have
a
motion?
Please.
L
So
so
it
doesn't
really
matter
what
the
height
of
their
rules
doesn't.
N
What
I,
what
I
have
here
is
it
says,
article
67,
section,
9,
building
height,
excessive
building
height,
excessive
stories.
That's
what
I
have.
L
N
B
It's
the
equivalent
with
the
dormers
and
with
the
change
in
height,
miss
better
equivalent
of
adding
a
story
right.
N
G
AN
AK
B
So
the
question
is:
do
you
want
to
defer
furthest
or
simply
part
the
bulk
of
the
merit?
We've
heard
merits
of
the
case
and
we've
heard
the
testimony
you
know:
should
we
dispose
of
this
today.
B
I
think
that's
the
question
for
us,
so
I'm
open
to
emotion.
L
E
B
B
AP
AP
B
B
Is
also
in
opposition
because
of
the
change
of
use
from
a
two
to
a
three
family,
so
motion
is
denied
okay,
it
is
now
a
12
10.
C
C
B
And
just
to
follow
up
in
mr
fortune's
request,
this
is
today
a
six-member
board
and
for
any
applicant
you
need
five
members
in
support
for
your
project
to
carry
so
there
is
an
opportunity
to
request
an
administrative
deferral.
C
AG
H
Applicant
we'll
be
requesting.
B
B
C
We
can
give
you
9
27
at.
C
12
o'clock
rediscussion
so
sorry
not
to
be
discussing
the
reconsideration.
Let's
just
is
anybody
on
for
8284
boston
street.
Yes,.
C
B
Hey,
may
I
have
a
motion
please.
L
B
H
B
B
B
Okay,
so,
given
that
the
board
will
take
a
break
and
will
reconvene
at
12,
30.
