From YouTube: Zoning Board of Appeal Hearings 9-12-23 (Part 1 of 2)
Description
Part 2: https://youtu.be/VFTOwmMP1Q0
Zoning regulates the use and dimensional boundaries of privately owned buildings and land. The Zoning code is in place to protect the neighborhoods from the construction of buildings or structures that do not fit into the context of a neighborhood. The Zoning Board of Appeal hears appeals for varying the application of the Zoning Code and determines when it is appropriate to grant deviations from code restrictions.

E

N
Yes,
I
am
Madam
chair
good
morning.
My
name
is
George
Morenci
I'm,
an
attorney
with
the
business
address
of
350
West
Broadway
in
South
Boston.
As
the
members
noted,
this
was
originally
approved
by
this
award
in
2019..
My
clients
did
not
own
the
project
at
this
time.
This
was
an
article
80
large
project.
N
The
120
goat
street
address
is
a
companion
matter,
witness
my
clients
subsequently
purchased
the
car
a
project
had
to
go
back
to
the
bpda
and
went
through
a
notice
of
project
change
process
the
bpda
granted
the
project
change,
including
the
new
ownership
components
on
October
13th
of
2022.
Since
that
time
we
have
completed
a
an
affordable
housing
agreement,
affordable
housing,
rental
agreement
and
restrictions,
and
a
community
benefits
and
cooperation
agreement.
November
17th
issued
a
determination
waving
further
you
an
issued
a
partial
certificate
of
compliance
on
June
6th
of
2023.
N
Considering
all
of
the
procedural
matters
we
had
to
go
through
the
bbda.
My
clients
would
appreciate
a
one-year
extension
in
both
this
and
what
it's
right
into
the
record.
The
next
matter.
B
Great
Mr
Stembridge,
can
you
read
the
second
case
into
the
matter
into
the
record
as
well.
E
M
E
Next,
we
have
case
boa
878-714,
with
the
address
of
72
dresser
Street
board,
originally
granted
relief
with
this
on
June
14
2019
and
it
granted
the
first
extension
of
relief
until
June
14th
of
2022.
However,
that
extension
was
unnecessary.
The
board
ran
the
second
extension
of
this
relief
for
September
19
2023..

So,
as
as
we
move
on
to
board
final
Arbiter
I
just
want
to
remind
folks
we
are,
we
are
in
fact
a
six-member
board
at
this
time
and
by
220
we
will
become
a
five-member
board.
So
just
as
a
heads
up,
thank
you.

Q
We
initially
this
this
denial
from
ISD
was
given
to
someone
who
was
no
longer
part
of
our
team,
we're
looking
to
change
the
name
in
order
to
pull
our
long-form
permit
to
The
Entity.
That
holds
the
license
for
this
address,
which
is
a
change
of
use
that
was
granted
by
the
board
two
years
ago.
L
M
E
J
Mrs
garbage
good
morning,
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board
attorney
Derek
small,
the
business
address
of
51
Dobson
Road.
Today
we're
here
seeking
to
remove
the
Proviso
who
has
access
to
the
roof.
We
met
with
inspectional
services
department
and
they
have
determined
that,
in
order
to
issue
a
valid
certificate
of
occupancy,
we
need
to
remove
the
Proviso
and
proceed
with
the
existing
head
house.
J
We
also
met
with
the
bpda
and
they
have
signed
off
and
agree
with
us
with
regard
to
the
the
removal
of
the
Proviso
and
that's
where
we
are
today.
J
H
H
R
We
don't
have
a
full
we're
still
dealing
with
this
on
a
case-by-case
basis.
I
know
with
this
one
in
particular,
attorney
small
and
myself
had
talked
about
I
know
this
would
have
been
a
building
code
issue
with
the
head
house,
because
it's
four
stories
and
we
actually
signed
off
on
the
plan
showing
a
head
house.
R
H
H
Right
that
sounds
good
and
I
noticed
at
the
nearby
properties,
mostly
they're
larger,
do
have
head
houses,
but
I
just
wanted
to
see
if
bpda
has
kind
of
a
position
on
East
Boston
with
head
houses.
Okay,.
B
M
M
E
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
At
this
time,
you're
already
into
9
305
break.
You
have
to
be
any
request
for
hearings
or
the
false.
The
girls
will
withdrawals
and
so
9
30
times.
T
B
E
Back
to
the
discussion
schedule
now
that
that
is
BOA.
V
V
Through
yes,
ma'am,
so
starting
with
that
first
slide
just
to
kind
of
lay
out
the
project
for
you.
This
is
a
proposal
to
erect
an
owner
occupied
three-family
home
on
a
vacant
lot
in
Charlestown
that
sits
in
a
3F
2000
Zone
I
represent
the
fourth
generation
to
grow
up
in
Charlestown
and
as
our
family
grows
and
housing
prices
increase.
This
project
represents
an
opportunity
to
keep
that
family
in
town
as
we
walk
through
the
project.
V
You'll
see
a
significant
amount
of
effort
went
into
the
detail,
because
I
will
be
the
owner
occupying
that
third
floor.
Having
grown
up
in
the
neighborhood,
it's
important
to
me
that
this
structure,
Blends
in
in
the
community
and
is
really
satisfactory
to
the
neighbors
to
kind
of
lay
out
the
project
for
you.
There
will
be
one
apartment
on
each
floor.
Each
apartment
consists
of
14
34
square
feet
of
living
space
with
two
bedrooms:
two
and
a
half
bathrooms
in
each
unit.
V
So
we
can
go
down
to
the
next
slide.
I'll
walk
through
these
kind
of
briefly,
as
they
make
sense.
So,
as
you
can
see
from
the
city
of
Boston
zoning
viewer,
the
parcelain
question
is
zoned
as
a
3F
2000
lot.
The
lot
size
is
approximately
270
square
feet
short
of
the
3
000
square
feet
required
by
the
zoning
code
for
a
three
family
home.
However,
the
lot
is
actually
a
double
lot
and
once
housed
two
three
family
houses
similar
to
the
three
family
houses
immediately
to
the
right.
V
You
can
see
on
the
map
that
109
Rutherford
Avenue
has
a
frontage
of
39
feet,
while
the
neighboring
three
family
houses
have
a
frontage
of
only
17
feet
in
both
instances.
The
lot
depth
is
exactly
the
same
where
these
structures
immediately
abutting
the
proposed
project
house
three
family
homes.
On
lots
that
are
half
the
size,
it
is
reasonable.
The
grain
of
areas
for
this
proposed
three-family
structure.
The
current
proposal
also
provides
for
only
two
bedrooms
in
each
apartment.
This
consciously
considers
density
and
sets
the
far
at
1.78,
which
is
well
below
the
maximum
2.0.
V
V
So
looking
at
the
proposed
survey,
as
you
can
see
from
the
survey,
the
structure
sits
directly
between
the
existing
structures
on
the
right
and
the
left,
with
setbacks
on
either
side
that
exceed
the
minimum
side.
Setbacks
by
the
zoning
code
to
address
the
rear
yard
being
insufficient.
Article
62
table
C
sets
the
rear
yard
at
20
feet
for
a
setback
just
to
address
the
bpda
recommendation
listed
in
their
letter
that
the
setback
was
actually
30
feet.
I
believe
that
was
made
in
error.
So
I
just
wanted
to
point
that
out.
V
So
this
lot
actually
qualifies
under
article
62,
section
30-10
as
a
shallow
lot
by
5
feet,
which
allows
for
reduction
in
the
rear
setback
by
30
inches,
which
actually
requires
a
setback
of
17
feet.
6
inches.
As
you
can
see
from
the
proposed
plot
plan,
the
rear
setback
actually
sits
at
18
feet,
4
inches
with
eight
feet
of
that
space
and
10
feet,
of
course,
in
the
Green
State
below.
O
V
Deck
star
sits
a
foundation
which
allows
for
a
walkout
basement
I
believe
that
it's
this
Foundation,
that
is
the
what
necessitates
the
variance
or
an
insufficient
rear
yard.
If
that
is
in
fact,
the
case,
I've
sought
a
little
clarification
and
guidance
on
that
and
I've
yet
to
receive
it.
But
if
that
is
in
fact
the
case,
I
am
seeking
relief
for
insufficient
rear
yard,
because
the
space
below
the
deck
would
be
otherwise
unusable,
so
the
extended
Foundation
provides
for
a
full-size
door
and
the
added
safety
of
a
walkout
basement.
V
These
characteristics
meet
the
general
purpose
of
the
zoning
code
and
actually
sits
a
like
and
kind
with
the
neighboring
structures.
If
you
look
at
that
proposed
plot
plan,
you
can
actually
see
that
the
rear
setback
exceeds
that
of
the
structure
immediately
to
the
right
and
definitely
exceeds
the
setback
of
those
structures
to
the
left.
V
So,
while
we're
seeking
relief
for
open
usable
space,
the
plan
provides
for
a
different
different
types
of
open
space
that
are
absolutely
like
and
kind
with
surrounding
structures.
Each
of
the
three
Apartments
will
have
access
to
both
private
and
shared
open
space.
The
proposed
plans
provide
for
approximately
405
square
feet
of
communal
Green
Space,
also
provide
for
additional
private
deck
space
off
of
each
of
the
apartments,
there's
also
a
prescribed
roof
deck
in
the
plans.
Well,
currently,
the
roof
deck
is
listed
as
being
accessible
to
the
owner.
V
The
I
am
certainly
amenable
to
making
that
roof
deck
accessible
to
all
three
Apartments,
as
it
sits
right
now.
The
owner
of
occupied
third
floor
absolutely
meets
the
required
350
square
feet
per
apartment
for
reusable
open
space,
the
first
and
second
floor
without
access
to
the
roof,
deck
come
to
approximately
315
square
feet
of
open
usable
space,
so
that
is
just
35
square
feet
short
of
the
requirement.
If
that
roof
deck
becomes
accessible
to
all
three
Apartments,
the
variants
for
the
usable,
open
space
should
not
actually
be
necessary.
V
I
would
also
like
to
point
out
that
the
lot
sits
approximately
108
feet
from
a
public
park
with
a
playground,
tennis,
Sports
and
basketball
course,
and
just
again
that
the
open
space
is
like
influenced
with
all
the
neighboring
structure
of
stuff
in
the
air,
because
scroll
down
slightly
keep
going.
There
should
be
a
parking
slide.
V
Oh
yeah.
This
is
perfect
right
here.
Area
context
is
great,
so
there
were
a
number
of
factors
as
we
as
I
kind
of
addressed,
the
the
need
for
our
parking
variants,
they're
a
number
of
factors
that
contribute
to
the
decision
to
maintain
a
full-size
apartment.
On
that
first
floor,
in
lure
parking,
my
architect
and
I
felt
that
the
installation
of
a
garage
door
at
the
front
of
the
structure
was
not
in
Conformity,
with
the
adjoining
streetscape.
V
By
maintaining
living
space
on
the
first
floor
at
the
front,
facade
more
appropriately
reflects
the
historical
nature
of
the
neighborhood,
which
you
can
see.
On
that
right
hand
picture
the
row.
Houses
that
are
immediately
to
the
right
do
not
have
garage
doors
by
adding
parking
to
the
first
floor.
It
would
also
Force
construction
on
a
slab
and
remove
valuables
storage
space
in
the
basement
for
both
Mechanicals
and
other
types
of
storage,
including
bike
storage.
Finally,
the
lot
size
and
shape
really
limit
the
number
of
possible
parking
spaces.
V
The
lot
is
not
wide
enough
to
park
more
than
one
or
two
cars,
while
still
allowing
for
two
means
of
egress
and
Mechanicals.
Any
available
off
street
parking
would
also
be
limited
by
maintaining
a
curb
cut.
The
current
plans
prescribed
for
the
return
of
a
curb
cut
that
is
in
that
space
to
the
community
and
provide
for
additional
on-street
parking.
If
you
can
go
down
one
slide
when
it
comes
to
the
density
on
the
street,
I
am
seeking
a
excuse
me.
V
The
section
of
Rutherford
Avenue
between
deadlines
and
Union
Street
is
actually
a
60-foot
wide
one-way
street,
with
parking
on
both
sides.
Despite
the
street
being
wider
than
surrounding
streets,
it
can
it's
considerably
thinner
in
density
than
the
rest
of
the
neighborhood.
More
than
half
of
the
south
side
of
the
street
has
no
residence
at
all
and
is
comprised
of
small
vacant
lots
a
vacant
home
and
a
Repair
Garage.
The
remaining
portions
of
the
south
side
of
the
street
is
occupied
by
elderly
housing,
many
of
them
utilize
the
ride
and
do
not
own
cars.
V
Approximately
half
of
the
north
side
of
the
street
is
land
owned
by
the
side
and
rear
of
a
church
and
does
not
have
residential
housing.
Only
one
of
the
residential
structures
on
the
remaining
half
of
the
north
side
of
the
street
offers
off
street
parking
as
such,
109
Rutherford
Avenue
also
consciously
considers
density
and
limits
the
number
of
cars
that
would
be
necessary
by
this
three
family
home.
If
I
can
go
down,
one
more
slide.
V
Also,
the
location
of
the
home
lends
itself
to
different
types
of
public
transportation.
There
is
the
Bunker
Hill
Community
College
MBTA,
stop
that
is
only
0.3
miles
from
the
front
door.
The
number
92
bus
stops
just
around
the
corner,
and
the
area
is
also
serviced
by
blue
bike
and
Zipcar
Zipcar
has
a
location
only
0.1
miles
away
at
the
Bunker
Hill
Mall.
V
Ultimately,
the
city
is
in
desperate
need
of
housing,
a
lack
of
density
on
this
street,
the
lack
of
density
in
the
proposed
new
construction
and
the
readily
available
means
of
ultimate
Transportation
make
this
project
right
for
a
variance
that
results,
adding
additional
housing
without
being
injurious
to
this
neighborhood,
we
can
go
back
up
to
the
elevation
demonstrating
the
roof
deck
as
previously
referenced.
The
plants
provide
for
access
to
a
roof.
Deck
I
am
seeking
relief
for
the
excessive
Building
height
due
to
the
height
of
the
roof
deck
hatch.
V
It
is
our
understanding
that
the
hatch
is
the
sole
cause
of
the
height
violation.
The
hatch
is
a
daylighter
model
that
sits
horizontally
from
the
roof
line.
This
particular
hatch
was
recommended
by
the
Builder
because
it
provides
the
safest
means
of
Ingress
and
egress
without
necessitating
a
full
head
house.
The
top
of
the
stairway
head
house
is
five
feet
above
the
roof
line
and
40
feet
from
the
ground.
It
is
five
foot
seven
inches
from
the
front
of
the
house
and
nine
feet:
five
inches
from
the
right
side
of
the
house.
V
B
You
address
a
couple
of
points
that
have
come
up
from
from
the
city
side,
which
are
the
curb
cut,
since
you
won't
have
a
parking
spot,
would
you
parking
spaces?
Would
you
be
available
to
be
closing
the
curb
cut?
That's
the
first
question
and
then
the
second
is
a
comment
about
ede
compliance
and
that
they're
currently
is
not
an
accessible
entrance.
V
So
the
I'm
absolutely
amenable
to
the
curb
cut.
The
proposed
plot
plan
should
have
demonstrated
that
and
I
apologize
for
that
mistake.
V
If
you
look
at
the
oh
down,
yep
right
there,
so
if
you
look
at
all
of
the
houses
on
this
street
to
the
right,
they
are
all
elevated
slightly
with
that
they
have
basement
access.
So
in
order
to
make
an
80
in
order
to
make
the
first
floor
apartment
and
the
basement
area,
accessible,
I
would
need
to
add
an
elevator.
Given
that
it's
just
me
trying
to
make
this
as
affordable
for
myself
and
my
family
to
live.
It's
certainly
not
a
requirement
of
the
fair
housing.
B
Okay
hearing
none
may
I
have
public
testimony.
W
With
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services
and
a
Buddha's
meeting
was
held
for
109
route
to
fit
Ave
on
June
28th,
it
was
well
attended.
Residents
had
concerns
with
loss
of
parking
in
the
design
of
the
proposed
building.
This
office
has
received
eight
letters
and
support
and
three
in
opposition
with
that.
We
would
defer
our
judgment
to
the
board.
Y
Y
Madam
Elaine
Donovan
consulate,
Columbus
office.
Our
office
received
several
letters
of
support,
one
about
our
opposition,
one
letter
of
community
opposition
and
the
council
would
like
to
go
on
record
and
support
of
this
project.
Thank
you.
People.
Z
AA
I'm
at
107,
which
is
a
lot
directly
near
the
house
directly
next
to
the
lot
for
109,
and
we
submitted
two
from
this
household
two
letters
of
opposition
it
this
project
the
way
the
proposal
currently
stands
with
the
size
of
it.
It
would
very
negatively
impact
our
building.
Our
Windows
would
all
be
that
you
would
be
ruined
the
Fortress.
All
you
would
be
removed.
P
P
All
right,
Kristen,
you're,
muted,
Christina,
sorry,
Christina,
okay,
we
can't
hear
you
I
have
no
additional
raise
hands.
Okay,.
R
Thank
you,
madam
Chairman's
Jeff
Hampton
bpda,
to
redirect
recommendation
into
the
record.
It
was
denial
without
I'm,
sorry
that
was
the
wrong
one.
R
Denial
without
prejudice,
applicants
should
have
been
planned
to
minimize
building
size
to
mitigate
the
usable,
open
space
and
rear
yard
violation,
provide
an
accessible
entrance
to
the
first
floor
unit
and
accessible
route
to
the
shared
storage
area.
In
the
basement
and
close,
the
existing
curb
cut.
V
If
I
could
just
really
quickly
quickly,
in
that
letter
there
was
a
misreading
of
the
table
for
the
rear
yard
size.
The
letter
indicated
that
a
30-foot
setback
was
required
and
it's
actually
a
20-foot
setback.
That.
H
Forward
emotion,
yes,
ma'am,
okay
I
would
like
to
support
this
project,
given
that
it's
providing
housing
for
the
city
that
really
needs
it,
it
would
keep
the
applicant
and
their
family
here
and
in
terms
of
the
side
yard.
You
know
it's
meeting
the
requirement
for
side
yard
so
with
that
I
would
like
to
put
forward
a
motion
of
approval
with
two
Proviso
that
bpda,
with
bpda
did
I
review,
paying
special
attention
to
the
exterior
to
work
with
the
rural
house
typology,
and
the
second
is
to
close
the
existing
curve
cut.
AB
M
U
Yes,
absolutely
I
am
one
of
Jeremy
sableto
good
morning
I'm,
the
owner
of
Builder
and
applicant
of
38
Austin
Street
here
in
Charlestown.
U
First
I
thought
I
just
want
to
thank
everybody
for
their
time
for
everyone
being
here,
I'll
try
to
make
it
quick.
I
know
we
have
somewhat
of
a
deadline
before
the
board
shrinks
a
little
bit
so
I
can't
thank
you
enough
for
I'll,
be
in
here
for
this
moment.
U
So
we
bought
this
building
just
a
quick
backstory.
We
bought
this
book
someone's
back
and
since
buying
it.
We
have
gone
through
the
foundation.
You
know
all
the
stone
and
Bear
Foundation
was
really
dilapitated
to
the
extent
that
we
had
to
completely
underpin
the
whole
structure
and
Repair
actually
completely
replace
a
few
of
the
walls
in
the
foundation
itself.
The
building
was
also
leaning
to
the
right
about
six
inches,
which
I'm
sure
everyone
can
imagine,
isn't
that
safe.
U
In
the
meantime,
in
a
safe
time,
the
manner
as
well,
our
director
butter
on
40
Austin,
Street
they've,
graciously
been
allowing
us
to
use
the
driveway,
which
you
can
kind
of
see
in
that
picture
right
there,
with
the
car
in
it,
they've
been
allowing
us
to
use
that,
as
we've
been
working
on,
the
building,
which
has
been
extremely
helpful
in
the
about
across
the
street,
has
been
allowing
us
to
use
the
spot
right
in
front
of
their
house
for
the
dumpster
and
the
meeting
time,
which
has
also
been
incredibly
helpful.
U
So
you
know
we
do
think
the
neighbors
who
have
been
helping
us,
along
with
everyone
in
the
rest
of
the
street.
We
do
understand
construction,
isn't
really
an
enjoyable
process
for
Neighbors.
So
for
the
most
part
we
do
appreciate
everyone,
who's
been
working
with
us
moving
on
so
for
our
plans.
So,
as
you
can
see
here,
this
is
the
building
that
we're
working
on
38
Austin
Street.
If
you
want
to
scroll
down
to
the
next
slide,
I
should
probably
give
some
idea
right
there
for
the
red
clouds.
U
So
the
proposal
we
are
seeking
is
essentially
for
a
finished,
lower
level
space
as
part
of
unit,
one
which
you
can
see
on
the
far
left
side
there.
That
space
will
include
two
bedrooms
as
part
of
unit
one
and
that
will
have
window
wells
and
that
will
go
up
towards
the
second
floor,
which
will
be
part
of
unit
one
from
there
on.
U
You
have
unit
two
which
will
be
a
two
bedroom,
and
that
is
where
they
would
hopefully
have
some
private
outdoor
space,
the
access
of
a
side
deck
which
you
can
kind
of
see
on
that
back
top
left
corner
going
up
from
there.
You
have
unit
three
unit.
Three
will
be
similar
kind
of
a
two
bed
more
of
like
a
one
plus,
and
they
will
have
the
same
access
to
a
side,
deck
right
off
of
their
kitchen
and
access
to
it
already
exists
to
move
deck.
U
If
you
scroll
down
a
little
bit
further
I
think
we
can
probably
see
let's
keep
going
down
so
that
right
there
is
a
lot
of
the
demo
and
existing.
As
you
can
see,
the
building
itself
was
a
little
bit
choppy
and
I.
Think
a
lot
of
the
work
done
there
had
probably
been
illegally
so
which
we
kind
of
found
out,
as
we
did
our
demo.
U
So
we
kind
of
went
through
demoed
out
through
a
lot
of
that.
We
actually
demoed
out
all
the
existing
floor
decks
in
there
too.
Basically,
the
entire
framing
inside
the
structure,
but
if
we
want
to
go
down
a
little
further.
U
On
the
next
slide
yeah,
this
also
outlines
the
circle,
the
cloud
spaces
showing
basically
again
the
finished
lower
level
and
the
rear
Decks
that
we
are
looking
to
add
to
the
structure
itself
here
and
we
can
scroll
down
even
a
little
bit
further,
just
because
I
won't
take
up
too
much
time
giving
Insight
on
that.
You
can
keep
scrolling
please.
U
This
gives
kind
of
a
little
bit
of
a
3D
image
of
the
building
itself.
So
you
can
see
the
side
decks
here.
Those
are
kind
of
tucked
into
that
little
alcove
structure
of
the
building,
that's
existing
and
you
can
kind
of
get
an
idea
where
it
would
be
for
units
two
and
unit
3
on
the
second
and
third
floor,
and
then
we
can
scroll
down
a
little
further.
U
That's
another
image
of
the
decks
and
we
can
keep
scrolling
down
I
think
we
might
eventually
just
get
to
the
framing
plant
and
on
it,
which
just
it
just
shows
how
we're
eventually
planning
on
framing
out
I.
Think
if
we
keep
going
down
window
well
and
then
framing
here
so
yep.
U
So
this
shows
we
actually
where
I
mentioned
all
the
old
framing
instead
of
sistering,
alongside
the
existing
framing
we're,
actually
removing
everything
and
installing
eye
joists
just
a
much
safer
product,
and
that
does
show
a
little
bit
of
the
frame
plan
for
the
decks
there
as
well,
and
you
can
see
the
window
well
on
the
far
left.
You
can
see
what
window
well
structure,
which
would
hopefully
be
part
of
the
egress
for
the
living
space
for
the
lower
level
for
plans
wise
and
work.
That's
basically
it!
U
You
know.
It
came
up
in
the
community
meeting
that
those
in
opposition
of
this
are
mostly
concerned,
I
think
with
the
lack
of
privacy
that
the
decks
would
add
to
their
homes
and
I
know.
One
of
bunch
are
one
of
butter
mentioned
safety
concerns,
just
with
the
building
being
so
close
and
tight
to
their
backyard,
where
their
daughter
plays.
U
A
few
noted
wanted
to
make
sure
that
any
interior
space
was
safe
for
any
occupants
that
we
were
adding.
Of
course,
you
know
they
will
be
as
far
as
window
egress
and
we
are
going
to
be
doing
a
direct
line
sprinkler
to
the
building.
So
in
the
event
of
any
emergency,
the
building,
hopefully,
is
meeting
all
fire
and
building
codes,
as
well
as
for
the
constant.
U
As
for
the
safety
concerns
on
the
decks
one
of
the
residents
that
mentioned
about
the
concerns
with
his
daughter,
we
did
say
that
the
decks
are
seven
feet
wide
by
about
14
feet
long
and
that
we
would
be
more
than
happy
to
remove
about
three
feet
or
so
off
of
that
length
of
the
deck
just
so
that
provides
a
little
bit
more
separation
from
the
back
of
the
of
the
lot
to
his
backyard.
U
That
should
provide
about
I
think
almost
four
and
a
half
or
five
feet
of
Separation
and
I'd
say
you
know.
We
do
understand
the
only
item
that
we
haven't
really
been
able
to
try
to
compensate
for
would
just
be
the
aspect
of
privacy
which
we
do
understand
because
the
decks
all
in
all
I.
U
You
know
I'm
hopeful,
that
goals
that
we're
putting
forth
is
something
that
the
board
sees
that
doesn't
really
break
from
previously
constructed
items
in
the
neighborhood,
as
well
as
seeing
it
as
something
that's
typical
for
these,
for
these
style
buildings
in
Charlestown,
and
maybe
not
necessarily
something
that
would
be
considered
controversial-
that
we're
seeking
I
will
say
living
in
the
city.
I
do
know
you
know
we
do
all
know
that
privacy
is
tough
to
come
by
and
it's
tougher
to
lose.
U
So
we
do
understand
that
and
how
important
outdoor
space
is
as
well.
You
know,
so
that's
something
that's
super
important
to
us,
and
especially
with
with
the
aspect
of
having
outdoor
space
for
residents.
We
we
are
pushing
strongly
to
try
to
get
this
for
the
eventual
people
who
will
own
these
units
and
just
to
lastly,
add
the
Decks
that
we
are
closing.
U
U
H
The
the
only
question
I
have
is
for
Jeff
Hampton,
who
BPA
bpda
mentioned
design
review,
which
it
seems
like
the
project
is
minor
in
terms
of
just
really
adding
the
side.
Decks
seems
like
everything
is
pretty
within
the
footprint.
W
Madam
chair
members
of
the
boy
Sean
Breen
with
the
mayor's
office
enabling
Services
and
a
Buddha's
meeting,
was
held
to
38
Austin
on
August
8th.
It
was
well
attended.
Residents
had
concerns
with
the
size
of
the
proposed
project,
privacy
and
the
work
being
done
on
the
current
building.
Isd
did
go
by
I
think
about
three
times
and
said
the
work
being
done
currently
is
within
the
sculpt
of
what
they're
allowed
to
do.
W
P
Y
AC
I
live
at
33,
Cook
Street,
our
home
was
built
in
1850
and
38
Alston
backs
directly
onto
my
property,
so
we
shared
our
entire
and
we're
at
a
lot
line
is
shared
while
I
appreciate
the
outside
investment
into
the
Charlestown
Community
from
Real
Estate
developers
like
Mr
Steve
Aletta,
the
requested
exemption
and
really
specifically
the
rear-facing
decks,
is
extremely
problematic
for
my
family
and
also
for
many
other
members
of
the
community,
who
wrote
letters
and
took
time
away
from
work
today
to
speak
in
opposition.
AC
The
the
testimony
of
Mr
simulator
highlights
the
importance
of
outdoor
space.
I.
Think
an
important
detail
that
was
excluded
from
testimony
was
the
existence
of
an
interior
shared
stairwell
that
that
was
already
in
the
building
prior
to
Mr
sivaletta
purchasing
the
building
that
shared
stairwell,
like
many
multi-family
unit
homes
in
in
Boston
and
in
Charlestown,

access
to
the
shared
roof
decks
for

The
decision
to
remove
the
stairwell
is
one
that
is
reasonable
in
my
view.

As
it's
personally
my
view
that
Mr
steveletic

seek
to
use
whatever
existing
footprint
to
his

plans,
however,
to
state
that
we

Butters
at
35,
Cook
Street
wrote
letters
in
opposition
as
well
as
Jeanette

who
hopefully
will
hear
from
shortly
the
owner
of

Cook

in
the

at

In
addition
to
safety
concerns
from
from
falling
objects,
we
have
fire
risk
concerns
due
to
illegal
use
of
gas,
grill
usage,
loss
of
privacy,
noise
and,
of
course,
property
value.
As
this
fundamentally
changes,
the
the
profile
of
of
our
homes,
I,
submitted
for
area
context,
photos
that
show
that
these
decks
end
two
feet
from
my
yard
and
only
20
feet
from
my
daughter's
bedroom
in
our
bathroom
and
I
would
request
that
those
photos
be
shared
on
the
screen
so
that
the
board
can.
AD
AD
Hear
them
they're
chucking
wood
out
of
the
second
floor
window
onto
the
sidewalk.
This
is
exactly
an
example
of
the
type
of
neighbor
that
we
have
been
dealing
with
in
their
attempts
to
remediate
this
home,
so
I,
just
I
wish
I
could
show
it
to
you,
but
obviously
the
way
that
this
has
been
handled.
The
fire
department
out
here
with
a
big
giant
red
X
due
to
the
unsafety
of
the
property.
It's
really
just
not
when
an
outside
developer
comes
in
and
does
this
in
our
neighborhood?
AD
AD
The
other
thing
talking
about
the
traffic
density.
We
on
Austin
Street
are
a
one-sided
Street.
Since
I
moved
here
in
2002,
my
husband
and
I
have
described
it
as
the
wall
of
cars.
There
is
literally
almost
never
a
parking
spot
and
so
to
add,
they're
they're
asking
for
existing
space
as
well
per
square
footage.
To
add
those
additional
Vehicles
is
really
something
that
needs
to
be
considered
in
connection
with
the
Privacy
aspect
and
I.
Would
they?
You
know
they
did
this
and
they
didn't
have
the
proper
permits
and
now
they're
asking
for
this.
AD
AD
P
AC
Believe
Jeanette
printable
is
on
the
line
and
would
like
to
speak
and
as
she's
directly
about
in
this
property
as
well.
I
would
ask
that
she'd
be
unmuted.

Good
morning,
yes,
I
am
an
and
a
butter
right
beside
him
and
I
had
met
Jeremy
when
he
first
came
out
here
and
of
course,
you
know,
we
really
it's
nice
to
have
someone
that
wants
to
repair
and
make
that
look
really
nice,
we're
not
against
that.
It's
all
of
a
sudden,
I
told
him
when
I
first
met
him.
He
talked
about
look
I,
said
I.
AE
So
I
didn't
get
in
a
butter
letter.
When
we
were
discussing
it
and
I
said,
can
you
focus
on
your
points
of
opposition?
Okay,
the
decks
are
huge.
They
look
into
my
house,
I
have
a
minor
childhood
or
a
girl
that
you
know
it's
very
uncomfortable.
We
have
to
keep
our
blinds
down
our
Shades
down
in
in
this
here.
There
only
is
so
many
feet
away,
and
it's
terrifying
to
know
that
you
can't
move
around.
They
sound
like
they're
in
your
house.
AE
I
just
feel
that
he
didn't
want
to
work
with
us
to
even
make
the
deck
smaller
or
keep
the
public
to
move
deck
that
everyone
else
used
and
I
just
feel
that
he's
overstepping
his
bounds.
He
didn't
want
to
thank
him.
We.
B
Understood,
thank
you.
Does
the
applicant
wish
to
address
the
clearly
it's
the
deck
issue
and
you
mentioned
potentially
shrinking
your
decks.
U
Comment,
yes,
we
would
be
happy
to
shrink
the
the
length
of
them.
I
I
think
the
the
appeal
we're
seeking
is
for
the
rear
yard
insufficient
because
they
do
come
with
and
I
think
it
might
be.
20
feet
is
what
zoning
would
allow.
We
have
no
problem
shrinking
them
in
and
I
think
I
mentioned.
You
know
the
decks
are
7
by
14
they're
14
feet
long.
U
You
know
I'm,
happily
chopping
off
three
feet
of
that
as
long
as
one
thing
that
interferes
with
the
door,
so
I
think
they'd
end
up
being
seven
by
eleven.
We
could
go
seven
by
ten
I'm
I'm
completely
open
to
doing
that.
I
think
I
hadn't
mentioned
that
before
okay.
H
Madam

I
like
to
put
forward
a
motion
of
BP
motion
to
approve

the
variances
that
we're
seeking

it's
a

Actually
is
a
conditional
use
for
the
number
of
units
we're
also
in
a
an

District.
We've
addressed
that
by
raising
the

floor,
we're
in
elevation
19

18,

is
18.

has
been
updated.

If
we
go
to
the

typical
floor
plan,
we
are
six

six

my

East,
7th

number
two
and
I'm
here
representing
myself
and
the
other
two
owners
of
this
building.
We
are
100
unoccupied
and
long-time
residents
of
South
Boston
to
quickly
summarize
our
project.
In
2021
we
removed
an
existing
roof
deck
to
make
repairs
to
our
rubber
roof,
and
last
summer
we
intended
to
replace
our
roof
deck,
which
is
when
we
found
out
that
the
prior
roof
deck
had
not
been
permitted.
AJ
It
existed
prior
to
2005,
which
is
when
I
purchased
my
unit
and
in
addition,
we
have
the
support
of
the
director
Butters
at
524
and
528
East,
7th

Anna
white.
Our
neighborhood
liaison
can
confirm
that
they
would
be
the
ones
directly
affected
by
the
insufficient
side
yard
variants.
This
roof
deck
is
the
same
size
and
in
the
same
footprint
as
our
prior
roof
deck,
and
we
are
only
seeking
to
replace
what
previously
existed.

all
expressed

also
received
two
additional

and
support
as
well.
We
are
unaware
of
any
Community
concerns
at
this
time,
we'd
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board.
Thank
you
very
much.
AG
AL
B
Great
man
motion.
M
B
M
AJ
K
AM
The
zoning
code
refused
the
letters
before
you
and
I'll
go
through
those
items
right
up
front.
It
is
very
minimal
zoning
relief
necessary
in
this
case.
The
first
item
is
a
conditional
use
permit
for
the
provision
under
the
South
Boston
zoning
code
that,
when
you
are
demolishing
an
existing
structure,
the
height
of
that
structure
is
is
the
presumptive
height
of
the
replacement
structure.
AM
Unless,
excuse
me,
the
board
grants
a
conditional
use
permit
to
go
higher,
so
the
proposed
building
as
you'll
see
in
the
plans
is
a
three-story
building
which
is
36
feet
in
height
and
less
than
the
height
allowed
in
that
sub-district,
which
is
40
feet,
and
that
is
one
of
the
items
to
consider
when
granting
and
conditioning
use
permit.
Under
that
section
of
article
68.,
the
second
item
for
Relief
is
insufficient
rear
yard
setback.
This
is
a
shallow
corner
lot,
long
in
width,
but
shallow
in
depth.
AM
15
feet
is
required
for
the
rear
yard
setback
and
the
new
structure
is
proposed
to
be
10.
Foot
setback
in
the
rear
yard,
location
of
all
front
engines
is
not
facing
front
line
was
cited.
The
official
address
of
this
property
is
244
L
street,
but
again
as
you'll
see
on
the
plans
and
the
site
plan,
it's
a
corner
lot.
So
essentially
it
has
Frontage
on
both
L
and
Columbia
Road.
AM
So
there
are
three
individual
townhouse
entrances
on
Columbia
Road
and
then
on
L
Street
there's
a
separate
entrance
for
four
of
the
units
and
lastly,
this
is
fronting
on
Dave
Boulevard,
so
it
is
within
the
green
belt
protection
overlay
District,
which
requires
a
conditional
use
permit
in
connection
with
the
landscape
plan,
which
has
been
developed
long
on
a
prior
refusal
letter
ISD
had
cited
the
coastal
flood
resilience
overlay
District.
However,
on
the
subsequent
submission
of
revised
plans,
ISD
noted
that
cfrod
is
inoperable
for
new
buildings
of
less
than
50
000
square
feet.
AM
AM
That
was
just
our
submission
letter
with
revised
clearance.
There's
the
notation
for
no
C
fraud,
applicability,
here's
the
existing
site
plan;
again,
it's
a
you're,
probably
familiar
with
the
property,
if
you've
driven
by
it,
because
it's
that
one
house
that
doesn't
look
like
any
other
house,
it's
a
1952
ranch
style
house
that
was
built
on
this
10
000
square
foot,
lot
for
disabled
veteran,
who
was
returning
to
the
neighborhood
and
he
resided
there
for
many
many
many
many
years
until
his
recent
passing,
at
which
time
my
client
acquired
the
property.
AM
We
already
have
a
determination
of
no
significance
from
the
Boston
landmarks
commission,
under
article
85,
giving
us
permission
to
raise
the
existing
structure
and
utilize.
This
very
large
ten
thousand
square
foot
parcel
at
the
corner
of
Allen
Columbia
Road
for
the
construction
of
seven
new
units
of
housing,
again,
three
townhouse
style
Frontier
on
Columbia,
Road
and
four
in
a
building
behind
it,
which
is
actually
part
of
the
same
building.
Next
slide.
Please.
AM
So
here
is
the
arrangement
of
the
site
plan
for
the
new
structure.
You'll
see,
there's
a
courtyard
running
down
the
middle
and
Chris
Vance
will
explain
that
in
more
detail,
but
it
is.
It
is
one
building
with
one
common
garage
below
grade
for
parking
for
14
vehicles
and
seven
units
shown
on
the
front.
On
the
left
hand,
side
of
the
image
is
Columbia
Road,
with
the
setback
of
20
feet
for
each
of
the
three
front:
entrances
which
corresponds
to
the
alignment
of
the
residences.
AM
As
you
go
down,
Columbia
Road
that
was
important
to
maintaining
the
rhythm
of
Columbia
Road
with
a
nice
large
setback
and
green
front
areas
for
each
of
the
three
townhouses
and
then
on
LSG
utilization
of
the
existing
curb
cut
for
the
entrance
to
the
underground
parking
garage
and
the
entrance
to
that
portion
of
the
building,
which
has
four
units
in
the
back
part
of
the
building.
We'll
call
it
next
slide.
Please.
AM
Here
is
the
below
grade
parking
area
again,
14
parking
spaces
for
seven
units
does
exceed
that
which
is
required.
12
would
be
required
by
the
code,
but
again
because
designing
the
building
to
be
fully
compliant
with
the
coastal
flood
resilience
overlay
District,
there's
nothing
but
basement
space
which
exists
anyway,
because
that's
the
footprint
of
the
building
so
we're
able
to
utilize
it
for
storage
areas
in
the
14
parking
spaces,
which
again
was
very
important
to
the
neighborhood.
AM
This
is
a
tight
area
with
a
very
limited
on-state
parking,
so
each
of
the
units
and
their
larger
units
will
have
two
parking
spaces
with
that.
The
next
couple
of
slides
are
going
to
be
the
floor
plans
and
the
elevations
of
the
building.
I'll
turn
it
over
to
our
architect,
Chris
Vance,
to
explain
the
programming
of
the
building
Chris.
AN
All
right,
thank
you,
Mark.
Can
you
guys
hear
me.
AN
Chris
Vance
Advanced
artex
the
project
architect,
the
business
address
of
254
Bay
Road
in
South,
Hamilton
Mass,
so
is
Mark
quickly
walked
you
through
the
lower
level.
Here
we
do
have
a
partially
submerged
parking
garage
where
we
are
providing
elevator
access
and
and
two
means
of
egress
and
stairwells.
If
we
want
to
go
to
the
next
slide,.
AN
So
here
you're,
looking
at
the
first
floor,
living
space
to
orient
you
quickly,
Columbia
Road,
on
your
right.
We
have
three
tri-level
townhouse
style
condos.
We
have
a
living
space
on
the
first
floor
here
and
they're
kind
of
replicates
of
each
other
on
the
left
side
of
the
site,
which
is
separated
by
a
courtyard.
This
Courtyard
provides
private
entrances
for
all
the
units.
AN
At
this
first
floor
living
space,
we
have
unit
four
and
five,
which
is
a
one
one
level,
two
bedroom
two
bath
condo
units,
and
you
can
see
that
the
elevator
services
this
floor
with
a
common
Corridor
accessing
the
courtyard
we're
also
providing
A
Accessible
ramp
to
the
south
side
of
the
site,
which
you
can
see
running
along
the
building,
so
that
we
do
provide
accessible
access
to
the
Courtyard,
which
gives
you
accessible
access,
not
just
by
the
elevator
by
means
of
ramp
to
access
all
the
units.
At
the
first
floor
living
space,
Next
plan,
please.
AN
So
here
we
have
the
second
floor
you
can
see.
This
is
the
second
level
of
the
tri-level
townhouse
style,
condos
on
the
right
side
and
again
there's
that
separation
between
the
two
buildings,
even
though
they're
one
structure
in
one
building
but
you'll,
see
in
the
elevations
the
way
that
we
we
designed
it
to
help
bring
the
masking
down
and
on
the
left
side,
you
have
a
bi-level
unit,
six
and
seven,
which
are
connected
by
an
inner
stair.
AN
Here's
the
third
floor,
so
this
is
the
top
level
of
both
units,
six
and
seven,
and
also
the
tri-level
townhouses.
We
provide
large
outdoor
balconies
along
Columbia
Road,
which
will
give
you
access
or
visual
access
and
Views
to
Dorchester,
Bay
and
L
Street
beach
and
man.
On
the
left
side.
With
the
two
units
we
provide
outdoor
balcony
space
again
trying
to
provide
each
unit
with
as
much
outdoor
space
as
possible.
AN
AN
Okay,
here
this
is
the
front
elevation
looking
at
244
L
street.
So
as
a
market
explained,
we
do
have
a
curb
cut
that
is
reduced
in
size
from
the
existing
curb
cut.
That
was
accessing
the
ranch
originally.
So
here
we
have
a
10
foot,
curb
cut
that
would
go
down
to
the
below
grade
parking.
That's
on
the
left
side
of
the
structure
and
the
way
that
we
took
the
design
approach
is
we
study
the
typology
of
the
surrounding
neighborhoods
and
what
we
discovered
is
that
there
was
actually
a
bunch
of
different
typologies.
AN
You
have
things
from
Two
and
a
Half
story:
Gable
roofed,
with
stacked
projected
porches.
We
had
traditional
Triple
Decker
units
with
flat
roofs
and
we
also
had
hip
roofs
with
Dormer.
So
there
was
a
ton
of
typologies
right
at
this
intersection,
so
there
wasn't
a
strong
architecture,
type
that
necessarily
informed
our
decision
when
coming
to
the
final
design.
So
what
we
did
is
we
wanted
to
take
that
massing
and
keep
it
a
similar
in
proportion
to
the
surrounding
neighborhood
buildings.
AN
So,
instead
of
having
one
large
structure,
we
broke
it
up
into
two
segments
which
you
can
see
here
on
the
L
Street
elevation
and
we
created
a
courtyard
that
divides
the
two
structures
that
you
have
visual
sight
lines
through
the
property
and
it
brings
that
scale
down,
and
we
also
took
some
of
the
scales
of
the
adjacent
properties
along
L,
Street
and
use
that
as
our
element
for
Designing
the
buildings.
We
also
use
the
Manser
roof.
AN
AN
So
this
is
the
side
elevation
between
the
adjacent
property
on
L
Street
to
the
left
of
us.
We
do
have
a
egress
stair
here
next
slide,
please
here
we're
looking
at
the
rear
elevation.
So
this
is
adjacent
to
our
Columbia
Road
neighbor,
and
you
can
see
how
we
stepped
back
the
massing
as
we
work
our
way
up.
Columbia
Road
and
again
we
provided
the
Stacked
porches
on
the
rear
to
give
as
much
outdoor
space
for
each
unit,
and
you
can
also
see
the
ramp
here
that
serves
the
courtyard
next
slide.
AN
Please,
oh
I,
think
you
skipped
one
elevation
there
yeah!
Thank
you.
So
this
is
our
elevation
along
Columbia,
Road
Again,
the.
AN
As
we
work
our
way
down
the
tri-level
townhouse
style
condos,
we
stepped
the
elevation
back
to
keep
that
20-foot
setback
to
really
provide
as
much
Green
Space
along
Columbia
Road.
The
elevation
doesn't
show
it
here,
but
we
do
in
our
proposed
landscape
plan,
have
a
wrought
iron
fence
that
wraps
around
the
property
that
ties
into
the
adjacent
property
on
Columbia
Road
at
1652..
B
AN
We're
incorporating
into
the
design
we
actually
exceed
our
usable,
open
space
and
again,
you
can
see
that
we
are
have
raised
the
first
floor
level
to
meet
with
the
sea
fraud
requirements
and
with
this
brick,
podium.
B
D
Moms
have
a
couple
of
questions.
So
if
someone
lives
in
the
townhouse
units
and
parks
in
the
garage,
how
do
they
access
their
unit.
AN
Yeah,
so
they
could
take
the
elevator
up
through
that
common
Corridor
or
they
could
take
one
of
the
egress
stairs
up
into
the
courtyard.
If
you
go
back
to
the
first
floor
plan,
you
can
you're.
AN
And
there's
also
a
stair
that
you
see
on
the
L
Street
side
that
comes
up
from
the
parking
garage.
So
if
they
want
to
take
the
stairs
up
to
the
Courtyard,
then
they
have
doors
that
unit
one
two
and
three
are
off
the
corridor.
AN
I
probably
have
to
leave
that
question
to
the
applicant,
but
most
likely
it
would
be
a
service
that
would
have
a
common
dumpster
that
would
come
out
to
the
street
or
pickup.
H
That
was
actually
a
really
good
question.
Katie,
because
you
know
just
my
comment
would
be
that
your
courtyard
is
not
really
a
courtyard
like
or
realistically
it's
just
an
open-air
Alleyway,
and
so
my
concern
is
that
or
I
would
recommend
that
you
actually
design
it
as
such.
So
it's
kind
of
safe
for
the
residents.
H
It's
nice
that
all
the
units
spill
out
to
that
common
open-air
alley
so
to
ensure
that
there's
no
trash
that
is
out
on
that
Alleyway
you
might
want
to
design
it
in
terms
of
Lights.
You
know
in
that
space
you
have
seating,
seating
area
along
those
walls
and
potentially
a
security
gate.
So
you
don't
have
unwanted
visitors
in
that
alley,
but
you,
you
definitely
would
have
to
design
a
space
for
your
dumpster
in
in
the
complex.
U
AN
D
Great,
thank
you
just
to
build
on
those
comments.
Thank
you.
Hanzi
I'm,
also
kind
of
what
I
was
trying
to
get
at
too
is
the
visibility
of
the
units,
one
through
three
facing
Columbia
Road.
You
know
someone
we're
accessing
from
the
garage
and
wanted
to
visit
those
units.
How
would
they
get
there?
So
I
think
also
there's
an
opportunity
with
the
courtyard
to
be
a
little
more
inviting
and
pleasant
and
easy
to
use.
So
those
are
just
my
comments.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Both.
AK
Good
morning
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board
I'm
Anna
white,
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services
l
s
hosted
two
meetings
for
244
L
street,
the
first
being
on
May
31st
2023
and
the
second
massage
on
July
26
2023,
around
30
of
utters
attended
the
first
meeting
at
around
a
dozen
the
second
one,
the
proponent
listened
to
community
feedback
and
reduced
the
number
of
units
in
the
project
and
worked
directly
with
two
of
otters
to
alleviate
their
concerns.
The
neighborhood
is
very
supportive
of
the
parking
ratio
as
it
stands.
AK
AG
Morning's
office,
the
councilor
would
like
to
go
on
recording
support
based
on
our
group
Community
process
that
resulted
in
good
faith,
compromises
with
neighbors
and
our
brothers,
including
reduction
of
the
size
and
density
of
the
project
parking,
including
a
parking
ratio
of
two
cars
per
unit
unit.
Increasing
the
setback
on
Colombia
row,
as
well
as
changes
to
a
design
and
package
to
help
fit
the
character
of
their
surrounding
South
Boston
Community
they're
performing
has
also
agreed
to
work
closely
with
our
borders
and
in
the
city
and
issues
related
to
maintaining
the
three
surrounding
the
property.
AG
Please
no
council
president.
Please
support
in
that
of
neighborhood
neighbors
and
Civic
groups
like
The
City,
Point,
neighborhood
association
is
always
on
this
good
faith
compromises
and
they
work
that
was
done
by
the
development
team
and
the
community
over
several
months
to
get
to
this
iteration
of
the
project
council
president
flingbones
that
are
strong
essays
in
the
community
attached
to
this
property
and
believes
that
this
stream
team
has
done
all
that
has
been
requested
by
The
Neighbors
in
Civic
groups.
To
make
this
project
as
successful
as
possible.
AG
The
counselor
respectfully
requests
that
the
board
that
bpdability
and
the
city
be
mindful
that
that
this
community's
support
is
always
on
these
compromises.
Over
several
meetings
and
months,
own
issues
like
the
parking
ratio
and
to
disrespect
the
time
and
effort
neighbors
have
put
into
this
iteration
of
the
project
and
the
quality
of
life
issues
they
experience
every
day
in
their
Community.
Thank
you.
AL
Thank
the
city
council
at
large,
Michael
Flaherty.
The
council
has
gone
record
and
support
ecoming.
The
sentiments
of
council
president
Flynn's
office,
as
well
as
acknowledging
that
there
are
article
68
violations
here.
However,
there
was
a
robust
Community
process
that
resulted
in
what
the
council
appeals.
AL
That
is
a
very
good
design
of
the
building,
as
well
as
the
counselor
is
very
much
in
support
of
the
parking
ratio
that
has
come
along
with
the
design
process,
as
well
as
the
community
process
in
working
with
the
butters
Council
had
to
commend
the
the
development
team
I'm
working
with
the
abutters
and
ask
that
I'm
parking
remain,
as
is
Mrs,
is
very
much.
O
Design
for
this
location,
the
support
from
the
neighbors
is
dependent
on
the
two
parking
spots
per
unit.
Because
of
this
councilman,
you
would
like
to
recommend
to
provide
so
of
no
BPD
design,
review
or
review
of
or
bpda
design
review,
not
to
affect
the
on-site
parking
or
the
design.
Because
of
this
because
I
remember:
that's
our
marketing.
P
Support
all
right
thanks,
Bob
and
then
the
win.
I
Yeah
so
Madam,
chairman
of
the
poet
Bob,
the
Mico
BCT
I'm,
not
opposed
to
the
population,
even
though
it
is
excessive,
but
I
would
like
to
request
two
things.
One
one
of
the
space
should
be
for
handicap,
accessibility
and
the
other
one
have
an
electric
charging
station
in
place,
since
that
seems
to
be
gaining
in
popularity,
but
I'm
not
opposed
to
the
parking
ratio.
I
just
think
that
those
issues
should
be
addressed.
Thank
you.
AO
Yes,
okay,
wonderful,
my
name
is
Luanne
O'connor,
president
of
the
city,
Point
neighborhood
association,
and
we
took
a
vote.
The
vote
came
back
to
support
the
project
very,
very
much.
What
closed
that
vote
in
support
is
the
design
of
that
project.
So
I
would
like
for
the
boy
to
please
take
into
consideration
that
we
approve
the
Project
based
on
the
design.
It
fits
into
the
neighborhood.
It's
not
a
non-descript
box
type
of
housing,
which
is
not
the
housing
that
we
like
to
see
in
City
Point.
AO
The
other
thing
is
the
parking
ratio
for
two
two
spots
per
unit,
absolutely
unheard
of
currently,
and
that
is
why
this
particular
project
has
received.
So
much
support
is
because
of
the
design,
the
fitting
in
of
the
neighborhood
and
the
parking
so
that
this
particular
developer
did
his
research
and
came
out
into
the
neighborhood
with
direct
dividers
with
the
association.
She
really
did
his
due
diligence
and
came
up
with
this
design.
So
can
goes
to
this
developer.
For
that
Kansas
architect.
Thank
you.
S
P
I'm
sorry,
one
second
go
ahead:
Ed.
AB
My
name's
Ed
Johnson
I'm,
the
owner
of
property
assistant,
7868,
Columbia,
Road
right
next
to
the
outstream
property.
My
grandpa
built
this
house
in
1926
and
I
grew
up.
AB
There
I
just
wanted
to
say
a
couple
things:
the
fence
that
on
my
driveway
I'm,
the
owner
of
that
fence
and
I
plan
on
replacing
that
fence
with
a
blockchain
rubber
fence,
so
I'll
be
doing
that
after
the
construction
is
done
with
the
with
the
2.4
outfit
property
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
the
height
is
consistent
with
my
house
at
1678
1680
Columbia
Road
in
the
house
at
238,
L,
Street
I,
believe
it
is
I
just
want
confirmation
of
that.
Thank
you.
AM
Right,
yes,
we'll
we'll
certainly
mind
Mr,
Johnson's
fence
and
and
work
with
him
in
in
any
way
necessary
to
accomplish
that,
and
the
height
is
36
feet,
which
is
not
only
consistent
with
the
height
of
the
adjacent
structures
but
less
than
the
maximum
height
of
40
feet
allowed
in
this
sub-district.
Thank.
B
You
with
that
may
I
have
a
motion.
H
Yes
again,
I
also
want
to
applaud
a
developer
and
and
their
design
team
for
creating
a
robust
public
process
and
and
also
their
attorney
with
that.
I
would
like
to
put
forward
a
motion
of
approval
with
provisils
that
one
that
out
of
the
14
car
parking
spaces
at
one
be
accessible
and
accessible
parking
space
and
that
there
would
be
also
an
electric
charging
station.
H
B
Let
me
have
a
second
one:
second
Mr
Mr
Stembridge
yeah,
it's
better
bronza,
yes,
Mr
Langham,
yes,
Miss
Weaver,
yes,
Mr
Valencia,
yes,
chair
also
votes,
yes,
motion
carries
good
morning.
Thank
you.
So.
E
B
B
E
So
with
that,
we
will
return
next
case
in
the
930s.
What's
the
case,
boa.
AP
Good
morning
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
Michael
Chavez,
I'm,
the
architect
and
representative
for
the
homeowner
Ms
Michelle
Murray
who's.
Also
present.
The
proposed
project
is
essentially
a
conversion
of
her
attic.
It's
a
owner,
occupied
two-family
home
in
Roxbury.
AP
So
there's
an
officiary
parking
on
her
Street
Lot
Frontage
is
insufficient
in
front
yard,
is
insufficient
due
to
the
size
for
existing
lot
and
the
Florida
area
ratio
is
the
one
thing
that
is
really
more
impacted
on
this
we
allowed
at
they
are
for
the
site
is
0.8.
The
existing
house,
as
it
is,
is
0.83
and
with
the
additional
living
space
in
the
Attic,
it
goes
to
1.0,
and
so
what
she
is
proposing
to
put
in
the
Attic
does
not
change
anything
from
the
exterior.
There
are
no
new
Dormers
being
built.
AP
No
new
extensions
of
the
house
being
included.
Essentially,
these
space
is
open
over
the
years
since
it's
been
built.
People
as
universities,
folks
have
been
using
it
for
various
things
and
she
like
to
formally
convert
that
into
an
extended
living
area
where
she
will
have
a
front
entrance
stair
from
the
common
hallway
at
the
front
of
the
house
that
can
be
accessed
from
again
from
the
from
the
front
door
and
then
the
rear
stair
takes
it
directly
down
into
the
her
unit.
AP
On
the
second
floor,
to
connect
directly
into
that
space
and
it'll
just
be
a
small
one-bedroom
space,
a
kitchenette
from
there
laundry
space
and
a
bathroom
again
for
people
who
may
want
to
have
extended
stays
there
with
her
family
friends
Etc.
AP
You
know
the
the
roof
will
be
brought
up
to
energy
code
insulated.
You
know,
and
all
of
all
of
that
and
again
there's
nothing
that
will
be
changed
on
the
exterior
portion
of
the
house
when
it
comes
to
the
roof.
The
Dormers
anything
like
that,
the
Highland
Park
neighborhood
Coalition
approved
the
proposal
around
213
Butters
meeting
in
the
neighborhood
association
meetings
and
I'll
approved,
and
that's
about
it.
H
What
is
the
plan
in
case
there
is
fire?
Is
this
sprinkler.
AP
AP
So
sure
so,
for
the
extended
living
area
we
have
one
that
leads
directly
to
the
common
hallway,
like
the
other
two
units
do
and
then
the
technically
these
the
rear
stair
that
then
exits
down
to
her
floor
that
her
then
the
egress,
that's
in
her
second
floor
unit
counts
as
the
second
means
of
egress
on
the
on
the
back
side
of
that
of
that
attic
space.
AP
So
so
the
you
know,
it's
just
basically
like
having
an
upstairs
bedrooms
or
anything
like
that
where
you'd
have
to
go
downstairs
to
then
get
out
the
front
and
back
so
that
would
be
the
same
case
here
where
she
has
one
direct
exit
to
the
front
common
stairwell,
and
then
the
bag
would
be
going
downstairs
into
the
unit
where
she
would
then
have
back
a
back
stairwell.
That's
at
the
bottom
of
that
stair.
That's
in
the
rear.
There
there's
another
back
cotton
stairwell
that
takes
it
down
to
the
rear
yard.
H
C
Yes,
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
Connor
Newman,
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services,
this
time
mayors
office,
to
defer
to
the
judge
on
this
board
some
back
information
on
the
community
process.
Our
office
hosts
an
abundance
meeting
in
late
June,
June
29th
to
be
exact
and
as
you
you
do
not
recall
any
major
concerns
being
voiced
and
the
applicant
was
in
contact
the
Highland
Park
Association,
which
is
active
for
that
area
without
refer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
M
P
Raised
hands:
yep
Tony
we're
going
to
give
testimony
here.
P
AQ
Yes,
the
owner
is
in
the
process
of
refurbishing
the
back
wing
of
her
Victorian
in
Hyde
Park,
in
the
process
of
which
we
discovered
that
the
roof
of
that
Wing
needs
to
be
replaced.
AQ
AQ
K
AQ
Can
see
it's
a
large
slot
on
Fairmount
Hill
and
there
will
be
a
head
house
rebuilt
for
Access
down
to
exterior
stairs
as
the
second
Community
address.
C
Yes,
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board
calling
on
anyone
with
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services
inside
the
mayor's
office
like
to
defer
to
the
judge
on
this
board.
Unfortunately,
due
to
Personnel
changes,
I
don't
have
a
lot
of
information
on
this
particular
case
with
that
will
defer
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
M
L
M
T
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
attorney
Jeff
Drago,
with
Drago
and
Toscano,
with
the
business
address
of
11
Beacon
Street
here
on
behalf
of
hvv
Massachusetts
Inc
that
are
known
as
Happy,
Valley
and
I
also
have
Michael
Reardon
the
co-ceo
here
as
well.
To
answer
any
questions
that
the
board
may
have.
If
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
Jessica,
thank
you.
So
this
is
a
proposed
co-located
vote
for
recreational
Recreation
and
medical
cannabis
establishment
at
1955,
Beacon
Street
in
Brighton.
This
is
a
rendering
of
the
exterior
of
the
building.
T
This
particular
site
is
located
in
a
neighborhood
shopping
district
in
Cleveland
Circle.
It
has
great
transportation
and
parking
access.
That's
directly
across
from
the
Green
Line
in
this
location,
houses,
13
parking
spaces
on
site
I
just
want
to
point
out
back
in
April
of
2021,
the
zoning
Board
of
Boston
approved
a
similar
location
about
100
feet
away
at
1937,
Beacon
Street
for
Happy
Valley,
as
we
went
through
that
and
we
did
receive
support
from
the
community
and
the
BCB
as
we
went
through.
Excuse
me
that
process.
T
One
of
the
overarching
concerns
we
heard
from
the
community
was
parking
since
that
location,
which
was
the
old
Marianne's
bar,
are,
did
not
have
parking
on
site.
As
we
went
through
that
process,
the
opportunity
came
out
to
change
locations
about
100
feet
away
and
to
house
the
dispensary,
if
approved
at
1955,
Beacon
Street.
T
If
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
I'm
out
of
Ambassador,
so
we
did
start
the
process
over
again
did
go
through
the
whole
Community
process
and
did
receive
all
the
same
support
that
we
had
before
why
this
site
is
ideal.
Is
it's
a
freestanding
building?
T
It's
a
former
Dunkin
Donuts
site,
as
I
mentioned,
it
has
the
13
parking
spaces
on
site
and
it
allows
us
to
pull
in
off
an
existing
curb
cut
off
of
Cleveland
Circle
and
all
of
the
loading
and
unloading
of
a
product
or
cannabis
can
be
done
internally
on
our
existing
property,
as
opposed
to
causing
any
traffic
concerns
that
we
heard
from
Neighbors
last
time.
So
it
is
an
ideal
location.
We
feel
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
this
is
the
existing
structure.
T
So,
as
you
can
see,
this
is
the
former
Dunkin
Donuts
site
and
you
can
see
the
where
the
parking
is
allowed
on
the
site
plan,
and
so
this
building
will
remain.
It
would
be
all
internal
construction
and
also
some
exterior,
obviously
with
signage
and
some
building
design,
but
the
building
itself
will
remain.
The
other
building
was
going
to
have
to
come
down
and
be
raised
next
slide.
Please,
and
so
this
is
just
surrounding
conditions.
T
This
is
located
within
a
commercial
district
and
surrounded
is
labeled
as
zoned
as
neighborhood
shopping,
and
so
you
can
see
the
commercial
activity
we're
also
directly
across
from
the
Green
Line,
making
this
great
for
other
modes
of
transportation.
If
we
could
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
that
is
the
Green
Line
Station
that
runs
directly
across
from
us,
and
you
can
see
our
building
on
the
right
hand,
side
on
Beacon,
Street
next
slide.
Please,
foreign.
T
Some
of
the
parking
advantages
of
this
location,
so
one
the
on-site
13
parking
spaces,
there's
also
to
our
account
87
needed
parking
spots
and
along
with
two-hour
parking
and
then
the
green
line,
sea
station
and
d-line
run
right
there,
along
with
the
MBTA
bus
route,
bus
number,
51
and
86,
which
allows
for
all
those
different
modes
of
transportation
just
to
go
over
just
a
couple
of
items.
The
lot
size
is
7069
square
feet,
the
zoning
variances
that
would
be
required.
T
This
use
regulation
so,
and
it
does
mention
that
we
were
triggered
because
we
would
be
within
a
half
mile
of
another
location.
That
location
is
our
own
approved
building
at
1937
Beacon
Street.
We
have
not
moved
forward
with
the
application,
but
it
was
approved.
So
the
BCB
did
approve
us
for
this
new
proposal
a
few
months
back,
and
so,
if
we
were
to
be
approved
by
the
zoning
board,
we
would
not
act
upon
that
other
license,
so
that
would
be
extinguished
by
the
BCB
and
that
violation
would
be
removed
anyway.
T
But
now
it
does
exist.
It's
also
a
conditional
use,
because
this
isn't
a
commercial
district
and
we
also
have
storage
and
use
in
the
basement.
If
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
I
can
run
through
the
the
plans
as
well.
So
this
this
shows
our
site
plan,
and
that
shows
where
the
current
building
exists.
You
can
see
where
the
arrows
is
that
comes
off
of
Cleveland
Circle,
and
you
can
see
the
13
housing
spots
where
those
were
housed
on
site.
Those
are
all
existing.
T
It
also
has
an
accessible
spot
as
well
as
we
worked
with
the
community,
we
agreed
to
put
landscape
all
around
the
trim
as
well,
and
if
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide,
we
get
into
the
floor
plans
and
they're
pretty
standard.
So
in
the
basement.
That
would
have
a
break
room
management,
office,
Security,
Office,
Vault,
freezer
and
mechanical
area,
and
then
on
the
first
floor,
you
would
have
your
vestibule
check-in,
a
private
consultation
area,
showroom
sales
counter
a
bathroom
vault
at
the
receiving
door.
T
I
just
want.
Also.
Let
me
know
that
this
building
has
a
full
security
plan.
We
will
have
video
surveillance
on
the
exterior
and
interior
of
the
building
motion
detection,
glass,
break
detection,
hold
up
alarms
with
the
rest
code,
24
7,
monitoring
by
a
third
party
and
Security
Professionals
inside
the
building
as
well.
B
Thank
you,
Mr
Daniel,
any
questions
from
the
board.
Okay,
hearing,
none,
let's
get
public
testimony,
including
Mr
Moran.
If
he's
available.
AR
Yes,
good
good
morning,
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board
Frank
Mendoza
here
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood
Services,
Austin
Brighton
liaison
here
to
testify
to
the
community
engagement
process
the
applicant
went
through,
which
consisted
of
in
a
Butters
meeting
on
May
6th
at
that
meeting,
individuals
expressed
concerns
about
security
and
parking
crime
and
proximity
to
the
local
park,
the
reservoir
O'reilly
Memorial
and
Pond,
and
rink
and
young
people
in
the
neighborhood
in
general.
AR
AR
We
did
also
receive
a
number
of
letter,
a
number
of
letters
of
opposition
from
Cleveland
Circle
addresses
and
business
addresses,
which
we
received
nine
letters
of
opposition
from
Brighton,
the
larger
Brighton
neighborhood
we
received
four
and
from
letters
with
no
addresses
attached.
We
received
seven
we're
also
aware
that
Boston
College
is
in
opposition.
As
previously
stated,
elected
support
includes
the
office
of
state
representative
Moran.
The
office
of
counselor
Brayden
is
in
opposition
to
this
project.
At
this
time,
we'd
like
to
defer
to
the
judgmental
report,
thank
you.
T
Sorry
I
just
had
a
jump
in
for
one
second
I
was
it
stated
that
because
councilor
Braden
wrote
a
letter
of
non-opposition,
yes.
AS
Chair
members
of
the
board,
Annabella
Jones
from
the
Brighton
Austin,
with
an
association
we
had
our
visually
supported
the
original
proposal,
which
is
100
feet
away,
and
we
voted
to
support
the
proposal
because
it
does
Supply
parking
and
we
think
it's
important
to
have
a
handicap
space
as
they
will
be
a
medical
marijuana.
It's
important
to
have
handicap
space.
P
AT
Hello,
hello,
thank
you.
My
name
is
Mike
Burkett
I'm
counsel
for
the
Hamilton
company
which
who
an
affiliate
owns
a
budding
office
building
located
at
2001
Beacon
Street
I've
submitted
correspondence
dated
September
1st
to
the
board
and
for
the
reason
stated
in
that
letter.
Hamilton
company
opposes
this
project.
P
AU
Thank
you
for
taking
me
my
testimony
for
the
record.
My
name
is
Michael
Moran
I
am
the
state
representative
from
the
18th
Suffolk
District
in
Austin,
Brighton
and
I've
represented
this
community
for
18
years
in
the
legislature,
I'm
here
to
support
the
moving
of
the
approval
that
was
granted
to
Happy
Valley
in
my
career
from
1937
Beacon
Street
to
1955,
which
is
essentially
100
feet
down
the
street
this
community.
AU
This
this
particular
community
of
Cleveland
Circle,
has
had
a
a
real
upswing
in
investment
in
the
Cleveland
Circle
of
movie
theater,
which
is
now
on
a
hotel
and
various
other
businesses
along
this.
This
Corridor
have
increased
their
Capital
investment
in
their
properties.
This
is
with
the
with
the
city,
redoing
Cassidy
playground
the
state
putting
a
lot
of
money
into
the
Chestnut
Hill
reservoir.
AU
AU
This
is
going
to
be
right
where
the
Marianne's
was
located,
not
that
I'm
against
those
types
of
establishments,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
that
Community
was
not
in
favor
of
that
establishment
being
there.
So
getting
rid
of
the
Dunkin,
Donuts
and
Marianne's
and
adding
a
heavily
regulated
and
controlled
marijuana
facility
I
think,
is
an
absolute
benefit
to
this
community.
I
would
just
finally
point
out
that
when
this
question
was
on
the
ballot,
the
Cleveland
Circle
Community
voted
over
90
percent
in
support
of
legalizing
marijuana.
AU
So
this
type
of
industry
is
not
something
that
this
community
at
large
doesn't
support.
So
for
all
of
those
reasons,
I
just
wanted
to
reiterate
my
support
for
this
project,
and
hopefully
the
board
Madam
chair,
one
of
the
members
of
the
board,
will
kindly
Grant
this
move
and
support
this
application.
Thank
you.
P
M
E
Madam
chair
at
this
time,
Jump
Ahead
to
the
discussion
for
11
30.
this
morning
and
ask
if
there
are
any
requests
for
withdrawals
or
deferrals
from
that
time
frame.
AI

Lynn's
245
Sumner
Street
East
Boston,
on
behalf
of
the
petitioner
Matt
chair.
We
were
before
the
board
I
think
just
last
month.
This
is
just
building
code.
Only
the
board
has
already
approved
the
Zoning
for
this
matter.
We
are
dealing
with
a
an
issue
concerning
some
egress
for
the
building.
We
believe
we've
addressed
it
with
ISD.
However,
we're
sort
of
in
process
of
trying
to
get
that
that
issue
resolved,
we
may
need
the
building
code
relief,
so
we
would
like
to
keep
this
on
the
docket.
AI
H
AM
B
B
T
T
If
we
could
go
to
the
slide
deck,
please
thank
you.
So
this
is
a
proposal
at
six
Brook
Street.
T
This
existing
building
that
you're
looking
at
is
the
rendering
of
the
proposal,
and
that
is
to
change
the
occupancy
from
three
residential
units
with
one
retail
space
to
six
residential
units
and
obviously
keeping
the
retail
space,
and
this
will
also
include
renovating
the
entire
building
exterior
an
interior
and
then
adding
both
a
rare
addition
and
a
top
floor
recessed
unit,
and
you
can
see
that
unit
on
the
top
of
the
building
on
the
fourth
level
pulled
back
from
the
edge
about
five
feet.
T
If
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
this
particular
project
Falls
within
the
guidelines
of
Plan,
East
Boston
and
the
bpda
did
support
us
as
a
recommendation
for
approval.
We
are
located.
It's
great
for
more
commuters
is
directly
across
the
street.
Falls,
along
that
Bremen
Street
Park
card
artist
right
across
the
street
from
airport
station,
and
if
you
look
at
this
slide,
we
would
be
infilling
above
the
convenience
store
and
then
adding
the
top
unit
above
that
the.
T
T
You
go
to
the
next
slide.
Please
share
umassa.
T
T
The
basement
would
be
just
storage
and
mechanical.
The
first
floor
would
house
the
retail
Market,
which
is
817
square
feet,
would
also
house
unit,
one
which
is
a
one
bedroom.
It's
an
existing
unit
second
floor
with
hose
unit
two,
which
also
has
an
existing
unit
and
then
unit
three,
the
new
unit.
That's
a
proposed
two
bedroom
at
836
square
feet.
As
we
go
up
to
the
third
level.
T
The
dash
Edition
in
the
back
would
provide
for
new
rare
decks
and
that
would
include
on
the
second
and
third
story
Edition,
and
if
we
look
in
this
surrounding
area,
there
are
a
number
of
crap
there's
a
number
of
precedent.
Four
four-story
134
Chelsea
Street
166
245,
all
within
our
immediate
walking
distance,
and
then
this
board
approved
a
five-story
building
at
282.
Raymond
Street
varies
from
four
to
five,
which
is
the
diagonal
from
from
our
property
and
let's
go
over
the
zoning
variances
that
are
needed.
This
use.
T
This
is
a
3F
district
and
we
are
providing
six
units
with
retail.
So
we
would
need
a
use
variants.
Our
lot
size
would
be
under
Fai.
We
are
proposing
2.9
we're
currently
at
1.53
for
height.
We
are
proposing
43
feet,
but
we
are
recessed,
as
I
had
mentioned
in
the
front
of
the
building
and
had
four
stories
and
three
stories
would
be
allowed
under
the
code.
We're
not
changing
anything
in
terms
of
front
yard,
side,
yard
or
rear
yard.
T
They
are
pre-existing
since
we're
not
we're
not
changing
the
Contours
of
the
front
or
sides
of
the
building.
We
are
not
able
to
provide
parking
because
there's
no
existing
parking
and
we
are
keeping
the
building.
However,
we
are
a
one
minute
walk
to
the
airport
station
right
across
the
way,
which
is
great
for
commuters
as
well
and
I
did
mention
this
triggered
g-cod
and
iPod
as
well.
I
can
pause
to
answer
a
question.
T
B
Yes,
so
Mr
Gregory
a
question
on
the
retail
space,
so
I
know
you
said
you're
retaining
it
it's
retaining
the
space.
It
sounds
like
from
feedback
that
you're
not
retaining
the
occupant.
Can
you
speak
so.
T
That's
just
not
true
Madam
chair,
we
are
keeping
the
occupant
we've
got
no
intention
to
remove
them.
The
delicious
Market
has
been
a
great
tenant
and
a
long-standing
presence
in
the
community.
The
intention
of
the
owners
was
to
have
a
longer
term
lease
at
low
Market
level,
so
the
lease
that
was
presented
and
that
he's
paying
now
is
well
below
our
half
below
Market,
which
we
had
agreed,
would
continue
for
three
years
within
an
additional
two
years
option
beyond
that.
K
T
A
lot
of
comments
around
that
are
rumors,
I
should
say,
but
that's
just
simply
not
true,
and
we
want
to
continue
to
work
with
that
tenant.
Obviously,
during
construction
we
did
mention,
there
would
be
a
period
of
time
we're
trying
to
keep
that
to
a
minimum
only
where
it
would
affect
above
his
location
for
framing
that
we
would
need
to
just
have
everyone
out
of
the
that
location,
for
you
know,
hopefully
only
a
month
or
so,
and
we
didn't
Express
that.
But
the
intention
is
to
keep
that
tenant
long
term.
C
To
the
Judgment
of
this
board,
our
office
conducted
in
a
Butters
meeting
on
October
22nd
of
2022.
There
were
22
of
others
who
were
present
on
the
call.
The
applicant
then
went
on
to
meet
with
the
Maverick
Central
neighborhood
association,
December
of
2022
and
January
of
2023.
C
Madam
chair,
as
you
touched
upon,
there's
been
a
lot
of
concerns
raised
by
the
community
for
the
potential
of
gentrification.
The
potential
loss
of
this
retail
space,
the
delicious
Market
I
guess,
is-
is
well
loved,
seeing
the
community
I
mean
neighbors
and
members
of
the
mutual
Aid
EC
have
written
and
called
out
an
opposition
out
of
fears
that
the
app
that
this
business
could
be
displaced.
C
We
understand
that
the
applicant
has
been
working
with
that
business
owner
and
it's
verbally
committed
to
retain
them
after
the
construction
has
been
complete,
but
I
think
some
members
of
the
public
Express
concerns
that
there's
no
written
agreement
there
with
that
we'll
defer
to
the
board
at
this
time.
Thank
you.
X
S
B
S
S
S
H
He
basically
said
that
he
would
like
to
have
a
preferable
five-year
contract
versus
a
three-year
and
then
and
then
a
three-year
potential
renewal
that
it
would
be
favorable
for
him
for
five
years,
because
three
years
and
just
to
right
and
very
difficult
for
him
and
his
family.
H
So
I
guess
the
question
would
be.
Is
there
a
potential
to
extend
from
three
year
to
five
years,
I.
T
I
think
yes,
thank
you
Miss
Barraza,
so
we
we
talked
about
and
I've
only
been,
of
course,
I
have
to
deal
with
this
attorney
directly.
We
did
send
a
proposal
of
in
writing
of
three
years
plus
an
option
for
two
additional
years,
so
I
think
we
would
be
perfectly
comfortable
at
five
years.
I
think
what
we
were
hearing
was
that
it
was
more
than
fun.
T
You
know
it
was
just
and
it
would
be
hot
for
financing,
but
I
think
we
would
be
amenable
and
I
actually
have
the
owner
who
has
reached
out
to
him
directly
Tom
Walsh,
Jessica
I'm,
sorry
to
ask
again,
but
if
you
could
Elevate
Tom
to
speak
just
because
he's
been
actively
involved
with
this
as.
T
If
Tom
could
also,
if
he
is
available,.
S
H
So,
basically,
his
preferences,
a
five-year
contract
with
a
potentially
three
year,
five
year
of
negotiation
and
I,
just
basically
said
we're
not
in
the
business
to
be
negotiating,
but
that
I
would
communicate
this
preference
I
think
we're
done
with
that.
Yes,.
T
O
AV
Grocery
store
being
left
alone
and
full
every
little
time,
but
besides
before
that,
I
would
like
to
comment
on
the
projects.
I,
don't
think
this
all
developer,
realizes
the
headers,
the
pain
and
suffering
they
have
across
this
community.
Now
we're
talking
about
aside
from
the
project
across
to
them.
We
are
going
to
suffer
more
parking.
AV
Surely
this
community
I've
been
there
30
years
and
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
all
the
elderly
handicapped
people
that
live
in
this
community
that
have
a
hard
time,
I
know
neighbors,
who
have
to
take
an
Uber
to
Boston,
because
they
want
to
leave
their
car
to
make
sure
they
have
a
space
and
they
come
back.
It
is
impossible
to
find
parking,
Neverland,
the
airport,
the
Y,
the
library,
the
schools
and
now
all
these
projects
we
are
never
going
to
have
any
space.
AV
It
is
a
sad
situation
and
I
just
want
to
make
that
clear
on
behalf
of
the
actor
who
is
not
a
money
making
business
he's
a
family
man
who
barely
Miss
money
to
support
his
for
his
kids
send
his
kid
to
college.
He
also
provides
a
lot
of
service
to
the
community,
except
especially
the
handicapped,
who
cannot
travel
to
trust
or
other
places
that
are
very
hard
to
get
to.
AV
We
depend
on
His
Daughter
by
things
that
we
daily
need.
We
need
daily.
He
has
even
gone
as
far
as
thinking
people's
grocery
home,
because
some
of
us
cannot
carry
it
so
I
really
support
him
staying
there
for
at
least
nine
to
ten
years
where
we
can
find
or
help
and
relocate
a
place
that
is
near
this
community.
It
has
is
part
of
this
community.
We
have
seen
his
kids
for
a
while
thank
you.
AV
AW
AW
AX
I
am,
can
you
hear
me
okay,
yes,
sir
okay,
well
to
the
board
or
the
chairs
Point
I'm
here
with
Hector
inside
just.
AX
My
address
is
8
Orion,
Ave,
Apartment
One
in
East,
Boston
I,
don't
know.
Did
you
want
to
say
yours
by
the
way
so
yeah
I?
Think
again,
it
should
be
pretty
clear,
we're
here
in
support
of
Hector
and
the
ability
for
the
delicious
Market
to
remain
there.
We
recognize
what
Jeff
and
and
the
development
team
is
saying
about
a
contract
and
that
an
offer
been
made,
but
it
simply
isn't
sufficient
for
Hector
and
I.
Think.
AX
Maybe
one
thing
that
just
caught
her
eye,
that
was
a
little
concerning,
and
perhaps
indicative
of,
the
good
faith
or
not
lack
thereof
of
the
development
team
was
that
in
in
the
first
picture
they
showed
it.
They
had
delicious
Market
there
and
in
the
second
it
said,
East
Boston
Market,
which
was
a
little
just.
AX
I
know
the
board
also
wants
to
hear
about
the
zoning
concerns
so,
on
my
end,
site
already
touched
on
the
parking
and
I'm
equally
as
concerned
about
the
parking
it's
it's
Madness
there
and
it's
insufficient.
What
the
project
is
proposing
and
you
know,
as
the
zoning
code
for
response
and
states.
I
don't
have
it
where
to
work,
but
that
new
projects
to
fit
the
character
of
the
neighborhood
and
also
add
to
the
well-being
of
the
neighborhood
anything
that
would
lose
a
bodega.
AX
S
AX
Any
case,
okay.
B
And
thank
you
so
I
think
we
understand
parking
issues
and
Mr
and
and
Mr
Martinez's
establishment.
So
if
there's
no
other
new
I'm
sorry
yeah,
do
you
want
to
respond
to
that
Mr
Mr
Drago
before
we
care
I'm.
AX
I'm,
so
sorry
to
interrupt
care.
Could
I
ask
one
question
about
the
language
interpretation,
because
both
Hector
and
I
had
requested
a
Spanish
interpreter
and
I
know.
Miss
para
said
that
the
best
she
could
to
interpret
for
him,
but
I
think
we
were
both
hoping
for.
You
know
professional
interpretations
that
everything
could
get
translated.
So
I,
don't
know
what
the
status
is
for
for
the
language
Justice
piece.
AY
Hello,
okay,
guys
modern
chairs,
Tom
Walsh
here
can
I
I'm
the
owner
of
the
building.
If
I
could
just
have
a
few
words,
it
would
be
if.
AY
Absolutely,
firstly,
thanks
for
thanks
for
giving
me
the
space
to
to
chat
here
and
I've.
Had
we've
had
a
pretty
great
relationship
with
Hector
over
the
last
kind
of
two
years,
since
we've
been
involved
with
the
project,
what
I
would
say
is
Hector
absolute
great
business
fund,
great
entrepreneur
he's
done
everything
in
favor
of
oath
and
we've
tried
as
much
as
possible
to
do
everything
in
favor
for
him,
especially
over
the
last
couple
of
weeks.
AY
We
want
Hector
in
in
in
our
in
our
retail
unit
100.
We
want
them
to
feel
comfortable.
We
understand
the
family
ethos.
We
understand
the
culture
that
he
brings
to
the
area.
It's
it's
only
an
advantage
to
have
him
in
place.
There
is
no
fears
around
having
Hector
and
his
business
in
place.
We're
working
with
attorney
with
his
attorney
to
put
that
down
in
in
right
hand.
AY
Think
so,
all
right,
so
pretty
much
just
just
just
to
wrap
this
up.
I
just
like
to
reiterate,
we
won't
have
an
answer
in
the
building.
We
want
them
to
remain.
I.
Think
we're
all
in
agreeance
with
that
I
just
wanted
to
to
to
assure
everybody
that
that
is
very
much
part
of
our
our
future
plans.
Okay,.
G
S
B
AW
A
good
one
and
again
Madam
chairman
of
the
book
in
any
event,
I
have
been
talking
to
attorney
drego,
but
I
have
to
say
that
I
have
been
requesting
a
lease
on
behalf
of
Mr
Martinez
over
the
last
several
months
since
the
last
meeting
I
was
sent
a
lease
just
about
a
week
or
two
ago
which
actually
contain
the
provision
for
a
one-year
lease.
AW
This
is
inconsistent
with
the
testimony
that
Mr
Hector
is
wanted
on
the
property.
If
Mr
Hector,
there
was
some
good
faith
in
one
thing:
Mr,
Hector
and
simultaneous
on
the
property.
Sorry
I
believe
that
the
lease
would
be
at
least
that
with
three
use
a
one
year
lease
was
sent
over
after
some
negotiations.
It
went
up
to
a
free
release,
but
even
a
free
free
year
lease
considering
the
nature
of
Mr
Martinez's
business
does
not
make
any
kind
of
economic,
a
financial
sense.
AW
Actually,
the
elderly,
the
sick,
the
closest
supermarket
is
several
thousand
meters
away
or
miles
away,
and
this
has
been
a
fixture.
The
store
has
been
a
fixture
in
the
community
for
significant
period
of
time.
AW
I
mean
there's
a
real
concern
that
when
this
project
is
approved,
Mr,
Hector,
Mr,
Martinez,
sorry,
I
call
him
Hector
because
of
the
familiarity
in
the
first
name.
Mr
Martinez
will
in
fact
be
kicked
out
of
the
property
at
the
end
of
any
list
period.
If,
in
fact,
the
developer
wants
to
maintain
him
on
the
property,
why
not
giving
a
five
release
with
two
consecutive
family
options?
This
is
a
normal
standard,
commercial.
Lease
I've
worked
on
several
of
those
leases
over
the
past.
You
know
dozens
of
years.
AW
I
am
in
touch
with
attorney
drego
I,
believe
that
will
come
to
some
kind
of
consensus,
but
I
am
afraid
that
if
the
project
is
approved
at
this
stage,
I
think
what
we're
going
to
have
is
a
community
where
a
significant
benefit
has
just
been
pulled
from
down
under
so
I
believe
that
we'll
read
some
kind
of
consensus
myself
and
attorney
driggle
we've
been
working
at
it,
but
let
us
have
a
lease
that
is
agreed
upon
by
both
bodies
and
even
just
this
level
of
mutual
Trust.
AW
Then
I
believe
that
both
parties
can
move
along
with
the
security
that
you
know
their
interests,
their
mutual
and
you
know
respective
interests
have
been
met
and
Mr
Martinez's
primary
interest
is
having
a
long-term
lease.
The
community
one
seems
here
Mr
Walsh
once
in
there,
so
that
should
not
be
too
difficult.
Thank.
B
You
Mr,
please
I,
think
we
understand
your
point.
Is
there
a
response?
Mr
Drago
before
we
proceed?
Yes,.
T
Thank
you,
madam
Sharon.
It
is
true
I'm
working
with
attorney
Blaise.
However,
we
did
just
send
him
again
that
I
have
a
documentation
of
that
and
an
email
form
that
it
was
a
three-year
lease
with
an
option
and
I
don't
want
to
get
too
into
the
legal
details,
but
an
additional
two
years
which
have
brought
it
up
to
five
and
and
we're
open
to
to
to
working
with
Mr
Martinez.
But
again
this
is
a
a
sort
of
a
legal
issue.
T
We
did
send
this
lease
out
more
than
a
month
ago,
and
my
client
gave
a
copy
of
the
lease,
because
I
was
afraid
that
this
would
happen
at
the
11th
hour
to
Mr
Martinez
directly
as
well,
to
pass
along
to
his
attorney
just
so,
we
could
have
an
open
communication.
We
would
be
more
than
happy
to
continue
to
work
with
him
to
get
something
memorialized
to
have
some
kind
of
a
Proviso
that
we
continue
to
work
with
him,
but
I
am
on
the
record.
T
I
have
documentation
that
shows
we
have
mentioned
a
five-year.
Lease
is
no
problem
for
us
and
just
to
point
out,
we
are
at
about
half
market
rate
rent
and
my
client
lowered
the
rent
because
he
wants
to
keep
Mr
Martinez
and
right
now,
prior
to
my
client
or
the
building,
Mr
Martinez
has
been
under
a
tendency
at
will.
So
you
know
someone
else
is
to
purchase
the
building
he
could
be
in
Jeopardy.
T
Aside
from
this
whole
development,
having
this
development
go
forward
with
a
locked
and
Lease
would
only
protect
him,
whether
that's
for
that
for
five
years.
AW
Very
briefly,
with
respect
to
Mr
Martinez
being
on
the
property
without
the
lease,
actually,
the
owner
of
the
property
had
promised
to
sell
a
property
over
to
him,
but
he
passed
and,
of
course,
we
have
Inherited
property
did
otherwise
and
again.
I
have
to
mention
that
the
list
that
I
was
sent
two
weeks
ago
started
with
a
one-year
lease.
So
how
is
this
consistent
with
one
thing,
Mr
Mr
Martinez,
on
the
property
for
a
significant
period
of
time.
It
started
with
one
year
until
we
raised
objections
and
issues.
AW
I
actually
propose
free,
at
least
and
two
consecutive
free
releases,
to
which
okay
I.
B
I'm
gonna
stop
you
both
here,
because
you
know
we're
not
here
to
mediate
your
legal
negotiations.
We
appreciate
the
context.
Are
there
any
other
questions
from
the
board?
If
this
is
sufficient
information?
Can
someone
put
forth
emotion
and
feel
free
to
provide
the
letter
if
it's
helpful.
H
Okay
sure
I.
H
My
position
is
to
do
development
in
the
city
of
Boston,
without
displacement
and
I'm,
going
to
put
forward
a
motion
which
is
a
motion
of
deferral
to
allow
for
parties
to
come
before
us
with
conviction
that
they
have
negotiated
some
good
terms
and
good
faith,
but
currently
I'm
not
hearing
that
I'm
hearing
different
opinions
and
with
that
in
this
deferral
it
will
also
give
the
opportunity
for
the
city
of
Boston
zoning
board
to
provide
a
interpreter
at
that
hearing.
So
that's
that's
my
motion.
Emotional
deferral
is.
F
H
M
I
M
G
G
B
Okay,
okay
with
motion
and
a
second
Mr
stumbridge;
yes,
Mr
Mrs
betterbrowser,
yes,
Mr
Lang;
yes,.
M
B
F
If
anybody
needs
a
request,
interpretation,
the
website
from
the
Syria
or
Inc,
has
three
options
for
people
to
request
interpretation.
There
is
an
online
form
that
people
can
fill
out
48
hours
before
the
hearing.
There
is
a
phone
number
to
call,
or
there
is
an
email
to
call
the
ambassador
to
contact
the
Ambassador
and
request
interpretation,
because
there
is
a
right
that
everybody
has
so
just
ensure
that
your
clients
or
community
members
know
that
there
is
interpretation
and
there
are
three
ways
to
request
it
at
least
48
hours
in
advance.
B
F
B
Okay,
let's
proceed.
P
AZ
AZ
You,
oh
sorry,
about
that
hello,
I'm,
Pete,
vanderwiel
and
I.
Am
the
general
contractor
doing
the
permitting
on
behalf
of
the
homeowner?
AZ
What
we
have
here
is
the
this
is
on
Shaman
from
the
south
end
and
if
you
could
scroll
up
just
a
little
bit,
so
we
can
see
this
this
spot
yep
right
there,
that's
perfect,
okay!
So
here's
the
subject
property
on
Shaw
medab.
AZ
The
homeowner
has
a
top
floor
where
there's
currently
a
small
fire
balcony
deck
off
of
the
back.
That
faces
the
the
rear
of
the
project
and
they
are
proposing
to
Dormer
out
that
area.
So
the
space
inside
is
more
inhabitable
for
one
of
their
family
members
who's
living
in
there.
AZ
AZ
Oh
I
would
like
to
add
just
quickly.
We
did
I
I
can't
see
if
Kim
crucielli's
on
the
call,
but.
AZ
BA
Yes,
hi
I'm,
sorry
for
the
video,
for
some
reason,
I
can't
get
it
to
work.
But
good
morning,
Madam,
chair
and
members
of
the
board
came
from
Charlotte
from
the
mayor's
office
of
Neighborhood.
Services
office
would
like
to
defer
to
the
board
on
this
matter.
Our
office
held
in
a
Butters
meeting
in
July,
where
all
concerns
were
addressed
by
the
applicant.
They
also
went
before
the
age
treats
neighborhood
association
where
they
also
receive
their
own
opposition,
and
our
offices
also
received
four
letters
of
non-op
position.
Letters.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.

The

today
is
to
construct
on
top
of
an
existing

that
is
existed
for
a
number
of
years.
A
single

wild
worlds.

BB

You
just
landed
a
little
bit
for
last
year
and
you
accept
that
this
was
an
ERT,
not
an
alt,
and
we
submitted
everything
and
everything
he
went
forward.
We
worked
with
everybody's
at
ISD
to
include
in
Coburn
Sean.
G
Right,
you
said
the
plans
were
changed.
When
did
you
submit
the
plans
because
right
now
I
think
that's
all
we
have
so.
B
G

I'll
ask
Stephanie
if
she

those,
but
right
now,
I

the
only
plans
that
they
have
presented.
Cam's
double
double
checking
now.
