A
A
The
agenda
item
is:
is
I'm
going
to
cover
briefly
some
items
that
are
under
old.
A
A
A
That
proposed
five
new
homes
that
has
been
withdrawn
by
the
applicants,
which
means
that.
A
Again
it
it
will
be
advertised
as
a
new
project
if,
if
and
when
it
has
to
come
before
this
board
or.
A
Other
boards,
as
well
so
having
dealt
with
that,
let
me
just
briefly
go
over
the
ground
rules.
A
That
we
follow
the
format,
if
you
will
for
this
evening's
business.
In
each
case,
I'll
read
the.
A
A
A
A
A
Speaking
in
presentation
form,
the
limitation
is
15
minutes
unless
you
feel
that
that's
in.
A
Having
said
all
that,
let's
move
on
to

A
And

let's
take
those
separately,

someone
on
the
board
prepared
to
make
a
comment
or.
A
A
B
A
A
Miss
majesty,
yes
on
page
seven,
the
third
line
from
the
top
it
misquotes
me
it
says
here
she.
C
C
A
Than
that
everything

satisfactory.
Yes,

the
last
two
items
on
the.
A
A
A
D
A
A
A
A
A
Certain
so
with
this
doesn't
need
a
motion,
because
it's
an
action
action
by
the.
A
A
A
And
lies
within
the
general
residency
grc
district
who
presents
this
proposal
to
the
board.
Please.
E
He
was
traveling
back
to
portsmouth
this
morning
and
is
still
in
the
process
of
traveling
back.
A
I
live

ruth

Thank
you.
A
E
A
E
Updates
on
this
number
one,
the
variance
on
the
right
hand,
side
of
the
building.
Mr
lucas
has.
E
E
A
If
you
yes,
absolutely
thank
you,
okay,
so
the
the
first
piece
of
work,
that's
being
done.
E
E
Okay,
any
questions
about
adding
that
on
we'll,
okay,
we'll
we'll
we'll
we'll
go
for
questions
after.
A
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
Was
submitted
are
are
that
attestation
from
the
the
neighbors
for
their
support
of
this
project.
B
Ridge,
increase
you
know,
height
increase,
require
a
variance
it's
still
within
35.
A
A
A
Comment
board
to
get
the
so
you're
doing
two
forgets,
because
we.
G
Owners
of
the
llc
that
owns
179
union
the
budding
property.
I
do
have
one
question
for
the
board.
G
Seems
that
the
encroachment
on
our
property
just
wasn't
addressed
yet,
and
that
is.
A
G
It's
quite
hard
to
know
how
big,
just
because
we
only
have
a
you
know,
a
drawing
of
the
survey.
G
G
Where
the
stairway,
I
believe,
are
45
coffins
court,
there's
a
stairway
there.
That
kind
of.
G
It
last
week
and
that
just
hasn't
been
addressed
anywhere.
We
we
also
do
have.
G
That
which
we're
working
on
with
with
mike
through
doug
but
but
I
don't
no
one-
has.
G
E
Is
the
current
cement
stairs
that
have
been
there
for
in
the
middle
picture
there?
I
think.
G
E
C
E
E
And
there's
actually,
the
left
side
of
the
building
has
a
bump
out
right
now,.
E
C
A
Be
for
everyone
who
speaks
when
you
when
we
get
talking
about
left
and
right.
A
A
And
looking
at
the
street,
so
you
have
to
clarify
at
which
which
direction
you're
looking
okay.
A
F
C
C
The
left
yard
is
six
feet
and
then
going
to
the
criteria
taking
the
first
in
order.
The
granting.
C
C
C
House
is
smaller,
then,
is
minimally
required,
the
so
taking
those
two
together
I
find
that.
C
To
show
that
there
is
no
loss,
the
public
wait
getting
this
confused
now
that
there
is.
C
C
C
C
And
a
existing
structure
retain
it
as
a
duplex
structure,
and
this
is
a.
D
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
H
H
H
H
H
Slightly
larger
than
the
existing
ones,
and
the
reason
behind
that
is
to
eliminate
ghosting.
H
Continue
to
improve
the
area
to
make
consistent
with
their
brand.
H
The
substantial
justice
section-
it's
not
gonna,
be
any
any.
It's
not
gonna,
be
unfair
to.
H
Anybody
in
the
area,
as
it
already
exists,
value
the
property
around.
It's
not
to
diminish
the
value.
H
H
And
then
again,
as
mentioned,
if
it
is
removed
and
and
moved
down,
it
will
be
an
eyesore.
H
C
C
Not
allow
for
illumination
it's,
you
know
you
can
see
on
one
of
these
photos.
It's
a
lovely
side.
C
C
Where
the
rest
of
the
district
does
not
or
your
budding
properties,
so
we're
continuing
to
to.
H
Keep
consistent
with
what
we
have
it
is
it
attracts
customers
to
come
into
this
area
to.
H
To
you
know,
attract
new
customers
help
the
wayfinding
public
be
attracted
to
this
building.
H
It
is
a
two
building
two
separate
entity
buildings,
so
this
does
help
separate
where.
H
The
drive-through
area
is
from
where
the
main
offices
and
buildings
are.
C
Sign
basically-
and
you
know
clearly
the
intention
for
being.
C
H
H
H
H
Height
restriction,
as
well
as
the
illumination
we
haven't
been
in
front
of
any
other
boards.
H
I
Change
any
lights,
I
I'm
not
sure
what
that
process
would
be.
Is
that
the
next.
F
A
H
Attained
this
or
came
here
in
front
of
this
board,
no
talking
with
the
historic
district.
I
Commission,
we'll
give
you
some
guidance
about
what
is
likely
to
get
approved
and
not,
but.
I
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Let's
see,
if
there's
anyone
present,
who
wishes
to
speak
in
favor,
anyone
else.
A
A
B
Well,
echoing
some
of
the
questions
or
just
thinking
about
some
of.
B
Historic
district
or
the
character
of
the
area,
and
I
don't
see
that
that
it
is.
B
An
unnecessary
hardship
to
prioritize
the
needs
of
portsmouth
over
that
okay.
Thank
you,
mr
rossi.
A
J
A
And
I
think
I
think
it
is
fair
to
note
that
we
have
people
residences,
residential.
A
I
guess
it
was
paul,
is
paul
you're
making
a
motion?
No,
no
just
you!
It's
all
yours
tom,
mr
rossi,.
A
I
move
that
we
deny
the
request
experience.
The
motion
is
to
deny:
is
there
a
second
to
that.
B
Hardship
test
for
the
reasons
that
we've
discussed
in
the
five
minutes
ago:
okay,.
A
Mr
mantle,
that
was
going
to
be
my
point.
I
don't
see
the
hardship
of.
A
Any
further
comments
before
we
take
the
vote,
I
will.
I
will
say
that
I.
A
None
really
has
been
presented
other
other
than
it's
it's
a
corporate
dictate,
but
that.
A
A
A
A
Let
me
call
the
vote
I'll
start
down
at
the
left
again
miss
mr
rossi.
So
a
yes
vote
is
to
deny.
A
A
F
A
A
A
Get
four
affirmative
votes
to
pass
your
project,
so
you're
gonna
get
four
four
out
of
five
okay.
A
All
right,
fair
enough,
please
go
ahead
and
be
sure
you
address
the
five
criteria
at
some.
K
Property
at
1474
islington
street
we're
going
to
be
constructing
a
eight
foot
by
twelve
foot.
K
Shed
in
the
back
rear
corner
of
the
lot,
it's
seven
foot
high
nine
feet
to
the
peak
and.
K
And
then
it's
also
going
to
be
installed
within
the
five
foot
setbacks
two
feet
on
the.
K
K
K
K
K
K
K
And
shed
would
look
unsightly
also,
just
please
note
that
I've
already
purchased
the.
K
Shed
used
from
a
family
member,
so
it's
going
to
be
difficult
to
alter
the
shed
and.
C
Or
you
would
have
a
lot
of
dead
space.
You
said,
however,
it
is
a
fairly
large
property
and.
C
K
K
K
C
But
that
is
what
the
rear
yard
setbacks
are,
so
I'm
just
trying
to
get
out.
A
I
I
just
have
have
one
question
and
it's
about
lot
line
clearances.
You
you've
got.
I
Two
feet:
clearance
or
setback
on
two
of
them.
Two
of
the
boundaries
of
the
of
the
lot
and
one.
K
Yard
equipment-
I
do
have
a
lawnmower,
but
it's
electric,
so
it's
I'm
not
going
to
be
storing
any.
K
Gasoline
or
anything
hazardous
in
the
shed-
and
there
is
there-
is
enough.
There
is
a
fence
along.
I
Okay,
it
is
strictly
speaking,
it's
not
our
issue,
it's
the
fire
department's
issue,
but
we
have.
I
A
Aspect,
yes,
that
would
be
appropriate.
Yes,
when
we
get
when
we
get
to
emotion,
yeah
and.
A
Clear
on
zoom:
do
you
do
you
want
to
make
that
emotion
with
that
stipulation?
I
don't
think
you've.
A
A
Public
hearing
is
closed.
Mr
mcdonald,
do
you
want
to
work
that
into
a
before
mr
mcdonald.
B
Makes
his
motion
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
I
am
concerned
about
the
setback
I
I
would
like
to.
B
Think
about
granting
the
variance
for
the
for
the
lot
coverage,
but
considering
the
setback.
B
B
B
A
A
Motion
second,
mr
lee,
thank
you,
mr
rossi.
Your
motion,
please
proving
the
variance
for
lot.
B
Size
coverage:
I
would
just
note
that
the
it's
a
very
minor
variance,
it's
very
close
to.
B
Within
the
limits,
it
would
not
be
contrary
to
the
public
interest
to
have
the
shed
placed
there.
B
A
A
A
A
Who's
the
is
there
a
second
to
that
motion
to.
J
Looks
like
I
stand
alone.
Nope
all
right,
okay
is,
would
you
would
you
consider
approving
a.
K
I
L
I
The
motion
is
to
get
an
opinion
from
the
fire
department
about
the
suitability
of
this
location.
I
In
its
location,
his
proposed
location,
it's
hard
to
see
how
that
creates
a
hardship.
I
I
I
The
ordinance
is
intended
to
promote
public
safety
among.
I
So
that's
the
reason
for
one
of
the
reasons
for
asking
for
the
fire
department
to.
I
Now
we're
back
to
the
question
of
hardship.
The
fifth
criterion
is
about
hardship.
I
I
I
And
that
is
my
human.
Thank
you,
mr
lee.
Well,
the
only
thing
I
have
to
add
is.
I
would
note
that
not.
A
Okay,
I
just
want
to
make
a
comment.
I
I
think
that
the
fact
that
it's
being
proposed
to
be
put.
A
In
a
corner
where
there
are
two
substantial
board,
fences
is
is
significant,
and
I
and
I
guess
my.
A
Certainly
shouldn't
if
it's,
if
it
were
put
to
be
put
where
it
it
is
proposed,
but
I
would.
F
F
Have
any
issue
with
the
location
and
they
they
don't
typically,
review
permits
for
sheds
or.
C
The
same
reasons
that
peter
brought
up
the
voa
cannot
really
defer
to
the
fire
department.
C
A
variance
application
there
is
no
hardship.
It's
a
very
it's
a
fairly
substantial
lot.
C
Rear
and
left
yard
setbacks,
and
so
I
will
not
be
supporting
the
variance
request.
Okay,
thank.
A
A
A
A
A
A
I've
talked
enough,
let's
start
up
with
mr
mr
rossi,
your
vote,
please
no.
A
Is
the
vote
does
not
get
four
votes,
yes,
which
required
four.
A
M
A
Pass
anything
so
what
I
might
might
suggest
to
you
and
if
the
board
would
will
allow
you
to.
A
A
A
A
A
A
On
that
basis
alone,
you
you're
welcome
to
do
that
or
you're
welcome
to
proceed.
I
I
don't
see.
M
A
basis
to
postpone
okay,
yet
all
right
so
we'd
like
to
proceed.
If
we
could
it's
monica.
M
Kaiser
from
hopeful
phoenix,
gormley
and
roberts
representing
karen
butts
webb,
who
is
also.
M
M
M
M
M
M
Including
a
deck
there
for
1744
square
foot
home,
so
it's
a
net
increase
of
388
square
feet.
M
M
M
M
The
non-conforming
structure
it
currently,
if
you
can
go
back
to
the
proposed
conditions,
plan.
M
What's
already
there,
the
proposal
is
to
have
that
addition,
which
would
be
23
feet,
23.1
feet
where.
M
30
is
required
the
stairs
coming
off
it
take
it
down
to
20.1.
If
you
go
to
the
very
bottom
step.
M
That's
about
the
size
of
it
in
terms
of
the
criteria,
we
think
the
public
interest.
M
In
the
spirit
of
the
ordinance
is
met
because
essentially
many
improvements
are
being
made.
M
M
M
M
M
The
addition
anywhere,
but
on
the
existing
home,
which
is
located
sort
of
off
kilter
on
the
lot.
M
M
So,
for
those
reasons
and
the
fact
that
we're
taking
care
to
do
things
that
further
the
purpose.
M
And
it's
not
going
to
encroach
upon
the
side
setback
in
a
way
that's
going
to
undermine.
M
M
F
Alex
ross,
I
prepared
the
survey
and
site
plans.
I
think
monica
covered
pretty
much
everything.
F
F
To
get
this
approved
and
as
monica
was
saying
that
a
very
small
addition.
C
Clearly,
you're
concerned
about
setbacks,
but
my
question
is
or
maybe
it's
more
of
an
observation.
C
To
take
its
place,
I
don't
see
that
that's
really
happening
here.
You
know
to
be
completely.
C
Honest,
it
seems,
there's
some
businesses
there's
three
other
homes.
Besides
this
one.
C
So
you
know
that
was
the
only
thing
I
was
really
kind
of
struggling
with.
Was
that.
C
You
know
the
the
intention
was
for
residential
uses.
I
think,
within
this
waterfront
business,
to
be.
C
Sort
of
more
or
less
expired
on
their
own,
but
I
don't
know
if
you
had
anything
else
to.
C
If
you
had
any
thoughts
on
that,
I
don't
know
if
I
cited
the
case
in
my
in
my
proposal,
but.
M
You
know
fancy
residential
homes,
I
don't
know
how
long
that's
been
zoned
waterfront.
M
Weird
because,
as
as
portsmouth
has
become
more
developed,
certainly
that.
M
Have
an
area
where
there
are
already
existing
non-conforming
uses,
then
you
know,
and
it.
M
Looks
at
it
in
this
in
the
context
of
hardship,
so
you
know
and
essentially
says
you
know.
M
Doesn't
seem
fair
to
have
if
you
have
other
non-conforming
uses
around
you,
then
you
know
in.
M
M
M
You
know
that
that
may
or
may
not
continue
to
be
there.
Frankly,
you
know
the
way
the
trend.
A
A
Anyone
at
all,
no
no
apparently
not
mr
stiff,
no
no
okay,
last
call
will
be
too
far
or
against.
A
Any
speakers
in
the
room
too
far
against
any
speakers
in
that
mode
on
the
zoom,
no
okay,.
A
And
see
if
there's
some
discussion
to
be
had
with
respect
to
the
proposal.
J
A
J
Again,
this
is
these:
people
have
actually
been
through
a
lot
of
of
bureaucracy
already
to.
A
A
F
A
A
District
who
speaks
in
favor,
please
hi
good
evening,
mr
chairman
and
members
of
the
board,
my.
N
Gina
bless
I'm
here
to
present
for
them
tonight,
I'll
just
go
through
the
package
as
I
have
it.
N
Here
so
the
first
page
shows
the
neighborhood
plan
and
their
their
property
is
highlighted.
There.
N
N
For
a
long
time
there
are
people,
kids,
the
neighborhood,
just
used
to
sled.
There.
N
And
mark
and
gina
are
fine
with
that
continuing
having
the
neighborhood
enjoy
their
backyard.
N
But
they
have
12
hundred
and
twenty
four
square
feet,
so
a
pretty
good
size
log.
N
N
Aware
of
and
trying
to
not
disturb
that
area
at
all
not
have
any
construction.
N
Viewed
from
hawthorne
street,
the
lower
left
is
the
existing
house
looking
from
the
rear
yard.
N
N
N
N
Going
through
the
photos
again,
the
upper
right
photo.
N
That
they're
concerned
about
to
the
right
along
the
fence
on
the
left
side
of
the
photo.
N
The
next
sheet
shows
views
of
the
outside.
N
We've
copied
the
simple
architectural
elements
of
the
main
house:
there's
the
heavy
crown
molding.
N
But
some
of
the
neighbors
have
commented
that
that
they
think
the
ridge
is
high
and.
N
N
And
the
the
little
overhang
at
the
front
to
make
it
a
little
more
decorative.
N
N
If
you
look
at
the
at
the
bottom
drawing
here
again,
you
can
see
that
dashed
line.
That's.
N
N
Then,
as
far
as
the
criteria
goes,
the
variance
not
contrary
to
the
public
interest.
N
N
N
N
N
N
And
the
open
space
is
requirement
is
not
more
than
30
or
not
less
than
30.
N
N
N
And
so
a
total
of
15
000
square
feet
where
we
only
have
12
824.
You
know
it's
to.
N
But
I
feel
that
we've
definitely
covered
that
and
then,
while
the
lot
at
two
to
five
y
bird.
N
B
N
Are
you
looking
at
looking
at
that?
I
think
that
one
here
right.
B
A
C
N
Units
and
so
we're
a
little
under
that
total,
so
I
just
want
to
make
that
because
it
you
sort.
C
Adu
is
outside
of
the
purview
of
this
board.
That's
within
the
planning
board
for
a
cup.
C
So,
okay,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Okay,
any
anybody
else
right
now!
No
all
right!
Thank
you
is
anyone.
F
The
property
that
directly
abuts
the
wydberg
property
we've
lived
at
hawthorne
street.
F
F
F
F
F
F
Thousand
square
feet
which
or
about
fifteen
percent
of
the
required
dwelling
lot
area.
F
We
believe
that
is
excessive
and
is
compounded
by
the
size.
The
proposed
adu
structure,
which
is.
F
F
F
This
adu
will
become
a
rental
property
later
on,
and
this
will
basically
be
in
our
backyard.
We.
F
F
F
F
F
A
Thank
you
very
much
other
speakers,
please,
in
in
opposition
at
this
point.
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
O
And
so
he's
across
from
me
and
the
way
my
house
is
situated,
my
driveway's
on
hawthorne
street,
so.
O
O
Green
space
in
the
backyard
that
house
I
agree
with
leslie,
there's
very
little
open
space
left.
O
Mark
anderson
and
his
wife,
it's
gonna
have
a
huge
impact
on
their
view
and
their
lives
in.
A
Any
anyone
else
wishing
to
speak
in
the
room
for
in
opposition
to
this
project
anything
mr.
A
Public
hearing
is
closed
board.
We've
heard
the
presentation
and
some
additional
speakers.
D
If
I'm
looking
at
this
correctly,
the
only
variance
is
for
the
second
structure
on
a
single.
D
A
C
C
It
it
just
it's
a
little
hard
to
sort
of
wrap
your
head
around
all
right.
Thank
you.
F
A
J
They're
asking
the
only
variants
they're
asking
for
is
a
lot
is
the
lot
area
for
dwelling.
C
High
density
areas,
but
the
zoning
ordinance
did
say
that
this
could
be
done
by
a
cup.
C
F
A
Anybody
else
have
any
sort
of
general
comments.
We
haven't
had
a
lot
of
practice
with.
A
C
But
I
I
also
think
that
that's
what
peter
was.
C
Does
not
have
that
and
by
about
14
1100
feet
I
this
is
a
small
neighborhood
and.
C
I
think
it
just
may
not
be
quite
big
enough,
given
the
surrounding
context.
A
A
To
picture
this
structure
in
my
backyard
and
having
a
little
trouble
with
that
frankly,.
A
A
A
A
About
24
by
30
or
32.,
that's
that's
a
very
common
size
for
cake,
capes.
A
A
If
nobody
has
any
other
comments
at
this
point,.
C
It's
a
little
hard
to
know
if
my
motion
will
be
successful,
so
I
will
move
to
deny
the
variant's.
C
A
That
motion
a
second,
mr
lee,
thank
you
and
I
would
deny,
on
the
first
two
prongs.
Contrary
to.
C
The
public
interest
and
observing
the
spirit
of
the
ordinance
it's
clear
that
the
city.
C
C
Allowed
by
a
cup
in
the
general
residence,
a
zoning
district,
however,
that
was
with
the.
C
C
Area
is
against
the
spirit
and
intent
of
the
ordinance.
So
therefore,
I
would
move
to
deny.
C
Think
that
there
is
a
a
benefit
to
the
public
from
not
having
this
variance
be
be
approved.
C
You
know
I
and
you
know
going
back
to
spirit
intent,
there's
a
character
to
this
neighborhood.
C
A
Thank
you
miss
mr
lee,
so
I
would
agree
totally
with
mrs
martinson's
comments
and
just
add
that.
J
A
With
compliance
with
the
first
and
second
criteria,
particularly
with
respect
to
the
character
of.
A
A
As
I
said
before,
big
or
small,
depending
on
your
your
perspective,
but
in
any
case
it.
A
That
the
neighbors
have
rights
to
expect
that
anything
that
will
be
done
will
be.
A
Will
be
very
consistent
with
not
copycat
but
consistent
with
the
rest
of
the.
A
A
Okay,
miss
margerson;
yes,
mr
lee,
yes,
mr
mcdonald,
yes
and
mr
mantle,
yes,
and
I.
A
A
A
A
District
who
presents
this
project
please,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
tom.
P
P
P
Surgical
center
is
but
there
is
a
definition:
that's
supplied
by
the
ambulatory
surgery.
P
P
Outpatient
clinic,
they
almost
map
one
for
one,
and
so
this
prop
prop
project,
as
you
know
again,.
P
From
the
staff
report
already
exists,
it
it
got
site
plan
approval
in
2019
for
the
ambulatory.
P
P
P
You
know
please
go
and
chase
this
down
to
ground,
so
I
don't
know
if
you
have
an
interest
in.
P
You
know
pausing
here
and
and
and
caucusing
and
taking
a
vote
and
saying
you
don't
need.
P
It
you're
already
covered
I'd,
welcome
that,
but
if,
if
not,
we
can
go
on
and
all
right,
okay.
A
C
C
For
so
their
determination
was
the
same
as
ours.
The
staff
determination
was
the
same
as
ours.
Okay,.
P
A
Yeah,
okay,
so
the
I
touch
on
the
standards
for
a
special
exception
in
the
application.
P
Of
recite
them
again,
the
ambulatory
surgical
center
is
in
harmony
with
the
general
purpose.
P
A
A
Motion,
please
all
right
I'll,
just
run
through
the
criteria,
as
the
attorney's
previously
done
so.
J
J
J
J
A
A
A
Srb
district,
who
presents
this
proposal,
please
chairman
parrott
members
of
the
board.
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Our
rights,
our
right
side,
yard
setback
as
if
we
we
do
not
own
it.
We
did
that
out
of
an.
Q
Abundance
of
caution-
and
you
know,
obviously
we're
showing
our
boundary
accordingly
as
well,
so.
Q
Is
same
can
be
said,
for
the
right
yard
setback
looks
like
we're
very
close
to
the
property.
Q
So
with
with
those
facts
behind
me,
I
would
just
turn
to
the
variance
criteria.
Q
Q
The
home
by
vertically
expanding
it,
but
the
garage
would
above
that
would
be
turned
into
an
adu.
Q
That
would
then
comply
with
all
the
other
requirements
for
an
adu
within
the
district.
Q
Q
Q
Still
a
pretty
considerable
distance
away
that
would
be
the
home
across
the
street
to
the
front.
Q
Which
is,
is
it's
a
pretty
significant
distance
away
from
the
front
of
peter's
home
and.
Q
And
the
the
improvements
that
are
proposed
are
really
designed
to
improve
the
appearance.
Q
And
the
functionality
of
the
existing
home
without
creating
any
real
impact
upon
a
butters.
Q
Q
Substantial
justice
will
be
done
by
granting
the
variances
denying
the
variances
in
this.
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
A
A
A
Any
complaints
mr
mantle
yeah,
I
will
make
a
motion
to
approve
as
presented.
Thank
you.
A
Second,
second,
on
that
motion,
mr
rossi,
thank
you,
mr
manlio
motion.
Please.
D
As
far
as
the
five
criteria
go,
the
variance
requests
are
minimal.
D
But
granting
the
variance
would
not
be
contrary
to
the
public
interests.
The
spirit
of
the
art.
D
A
Proposal
as
presented
all
right,
no,
mr
rossi,
yes,
ms
margerson,
yes,
mr
lee,
yes,
mr
mcdonald,
yes
and
I.
A
A
A
We're
at
item
h
on
the
agenda
this
evening,
which
is
the
request
of
english
and
hopkins
llc.
A
A
A
This
proposal,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
again
derek
durbin,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the.
Q
Otherwise
known
as
lot
22
1.,
I
also
have
with
me
tim
kevin,
who
is
one
of
the
owners
of.
Q
English
and
hopkins
llc,
which
owns
the
the
property
he
owns
it
with
his
wife
and
kevin.
Q
I
also
have
ed
patnaud,
who
is
the
the
builder
for
the
presumed
project.
Q
Q
Q
Following
the
zba
approval
in
2019,
mr
martin
also
received
the
subdivision
approval.
Q
Q
For
proposed
building
coverage
for
reasons
that
I
can't
exactly
recall
at
the
time,
I
believe
you.
Q
It
would
appear
that
at
the
time
the
plan
was
approved.
I'm
sure
this
obviously
wasn't
something.
Q
Q
Q
Q
Build
a
new
single-family
home,
this
particular
lot,
which
you
know
it
was
always
the
intent.
Q
Just
touched
upon,
and
now
the
cavities
are
also
showing
a
a
garden
shed
a
48
square
foot.
Q
Garden
shed
that's
driving
a
little
bit
of
the
request
for
the
relief,
so
that
is
one
other.
Q
Make
a
request
for
a
front
yard
setback
variant
in
the
application.
We
don't
believe
one's.
Q
Q
Where
you
can
use
the
basically
the
average
alignment
of
principal
structures
within
200
feet,.
Q
Q
Q
They
will
also
as
a
stipulation
if
this
were
approved
tonight,
be
removing
the
existing.
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Be
consistent
with
the
spirit
of
the
ordinance
which
is
to
provide
for
moderate
to
high
density.
Q
Q
Any
tangible
gain
to
the
public,
the
values
surrounding
properties
would
not
be
diminished
by.
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
A
A
Call
okay,
we'll
put
we'll
close
the
public
hearing,
we've
heard
the
we've
heard
the
proposal.
A
B
There's
a
need
in
portsmouth
for
increasing
housing
stock,
and
this
helps
satisfy
that.
B
Need
it's
in
keeping
with
the
spirit
of
the
ordinance
in
terms
of
the
density
for
that.
B
B
D
A
A
A
R
R
R
Collins
has
acquired
this
property.
I
think
last
march,
there's
an
existing
dwelling.
R
R
R
Lot,
as
it
exists,
is
shown
on
a
plan
that
predates
1966.
R
R
Coverage
that
would
not
require
any
relief
from
this
board.
My
clients
feel
that
that
would
be.
R
A
duplex
simply
would,
in
our
opinion,
be
out
of
place,
and
so,
instead,
what
we're
proposing
is.
R
R
The
applicant
and
and
the
project
representatives
had
attack
work
session
about.
R
R
Approval
will
be
required,
we'll
have
another
round
of
tack
and
hopefully
get
approvals.
R
And
what
are
in
the
plans
that
you
have
now
so
what
what
we've
submitted.
R
R
Yeah,
I
think
one
of
those
interesting
apparently
at
one
time
there
was
a
bridge.
R
Residential
density
that
we're
proposing
by
the
project
before
you
is
no
different.
R
Than
what
we
can
otherwise
obtain
by
right,
so
there's
there's:
no.
There
should
be
no
concern.
R
R
R
R
R
R
R
R
R
R
The
proposed
development
and
finally,
there
are
special
conditions
associated
with
the.
R
Property
that
prevent
its
proper
enjoyment
under
the
strict
terms
of
the
zoning
ordinance.
R
As
I
said,
it's
located
at
the
end
of
a
dead-end
street,
it's
a
partially
unbuilt
paper
street.
R
And
it
abuts
a
substantial
portion
of
undevelopable
park
land.
It
has,
if
you.
R
So
we
believe
that
what
we're
proposing
is
more
in
keeping
with
the
character
of
the
neighborhood.
R
By
this
project,
the
the
last
point
I
would
just
make
is
that
when
we
talk
about.
R
But
we
believe
two
lots
with
a
single
family
house
on
each
is
more
appropriate
than
a
duplex.
D
Meredith
way
ends
at
your
property
37
feet
into
it.
I
think
31,
maybe.
R
This
property?
Yes,
so
that
actually
has
that
actually
was
the
subject
of
relief.
D
Want
the
extension
of
meredith
way,
I
don't
think
that's
the
case.
A
letter.
R
R
R
R
R
Laid
out
as
50
foot
lots
and
a
lot
of
these
lots
are
much
smaller.
You
know,
because
that's
the.
D
D
C
It
provides
uniformity,
that's
why
the
city
generally
require
well
requires
it.
It's.
C
This
meredith
way
is
that's
just
an
observation.
We
had
an
application
for
a
very
small
street.
C
Fundraise
and
off
of
l1
and
mcnabb,
I
think
this
is
different,
just
because
this
is
a
really.
C
R
Access
meredith
way
that
you
know
they're
more,
that
have
have
frontage
but
they're.
Only
two.
C
S
To
speak
in
support
of
jeff
and
randy's
proposal
for
subdivision,
and
I
just
wanted
to.
S
Wanted
to
make
sure
considered
as
part
of
that
that
subdivision
so
as
they've
requested.
S
The
neighborhood
I
and
in
full
support
of
that
I
would
just
ask
that
as
part
of
the
stipulation.
S
Of
granting
the
driveway,
if
it's
possible
to
also
add
a
stipulation
on
the
deed,
that.
S
So,
just
to
maintain
the
consistent
residential
density
that
we
have
on
meredith
way,
which
is
a.
S
Playing
up
and
down
the
street
in
the
park
back
and
forth,
I
also
noticed
in
the
application.
S
Which
it
was
like
there
was
one
originally
that
was
around.
I
think
a
footprint
of
15
a
little
a.
S
Bit
over
1500
square
feet
and
it's
15
61
square
feet,
and
then
these,
as
shown,
I
think,
unless
I'm.
S
S
Which
doesn't
actually
keep
in
the
nature
of
the
characteristics
of
the
neighborhood.
S
The
application
sort
of
be
the
one
that's
granted
here,
because
I
think
this
is
now
pushing
to.
S
Somewhat
much
smaller
lots,
which
is
no
longer
consistent
with
the
nature
of
the
neighborhood.
S
S
The
original
application
conversation
with
jeff
and
randy
what
they
were
hoping
to
do
was.
S
S
S
S
With
meredith
way
in
place
and
intact,
as
it
is
right
now,
the
the
last
piece
is
that
there
is.
S
We've
had
them
on
our
own
property,
immediately
adjacent
there
to
the
left
in
the
back
corner.
S
Quite
a
bit-
and
I
know
that
further
as
well
sort
of
extending
meredith
way
would
also.
S
There's
some
kind
of
a
plan
and
some
kind
of
an
assessment
for
how
to
evade
the
water
issue.
As.
S
By
building
at
this
sort
of
scale,
so
assuming
those
stipulations
sort
of
are
are.

the
end

meredith.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Any
questions
for
the
speaker,
miss
madison,
so.
C
Whatever
it's
called,
I
forget
it's
late.
Sorry
street
friendly
street
frontage
then
is
required.
R
C
L
Yes,
my
name
is
donnis
blaine
and
I
am
currently
on
295
bartlett
street.
That's
my
address.
Thank
you.

L
The
other
one
is
dave
and
jen
dave
just
spoke
so
and
the
other
one
up
on
the
corner
lot.
L
Paper
street
position:
it's
my
understanding
that
the
city.
L
Had
a
dirt
road
here,
like
45
years
ago,
that
actually
veered
in
front.
L
L
But
I
understand
you
can't
put
any
conditions
on
a
deed,
but
you
can
put
conditions.
L
Of
either
driveway,
thank
you
thank
you.
This
is
the
is
the
chairman
parrot
just
a.
A
A
He's
destroying
christmas
he's
smiling,
but
just
to
give
you
another
a
as
a
general
comment.
A
Many
of
the
things
that
you
have
requested
are
well
beyond
this:
the
scope
of
this
board.
We.
A
Of
the
question,
and
as
good
as
some
of
those
sound,
they
simply
within
the
power
of.
A
The
board,
even
if
you
know,
even
if
we
were
so
declined
to
to
do
it,
because
we
can't.
A
Expand
beyond
what's
presented
to
us
for
consideration
and
decision
tonight,
so
it.
L
The
neighborhood,
yes,
thank
you
as
far
as
how
the
street
was
developed.
L
Abilities
are
to
make
a
judgment
on.
Yes,
thank
you
for
the
history
that
that's
very
interesting.
A
Any
anything
further:
yes,
we
have
aaron
long,
okay,.
S
Thornton
street,
which
butts
this
this
property
at
the
back.
S
We've
been
here
less
than
a
month,
we've
learned
about
some
pretty
significant
water
issues
here.
S
Of
them
55
pine
street
being
the
other,
and
I
think
if,
if
meredith
way
is
extended
and
we're.
S
S
Not
going
to
soak
into
the
ground-
and
I
I
do
see
proposed
rain
gardens,
but
it
would
be
nice.
S
S
Much
they're
they're
going
to
be
able
to
handle
we're
already
working
with
somebody
from
from
raw.
S
S
A
Anybody
last
last
last
call
2-4-0
against
speakers.
R
Are
planning
issues
the
one
thing
I
wanted
to
just
point
out,
though,
if
you
look
again
at.
R
And
how
that
would
potentially
impact
runoff
to
the
rear.
R
Are
proposing
some
mitigation,
the
the
planning
board
will.
R
R
A
We're
all
clear
on
zoom,
yes,
okay,
okay,
that
closes
the
public
hearing.
We
have
a.
J
A
J
Implicit
purposes
of
the
ordinance,
as
I
think
ms
murderson
pointed
out,
the
purpose
of
frontage.
J
Is
to
influence
the
density
of
neighborhoods
and
the
location
of
this.
This
property.
J
With
you
know,
at
the
end
of
a
dead-end
street
and
the
park
across
there,
I
really
see
that.
J
Sort
of
as
an
irrelevant
factor
in
this
case,
substantial
justice
is
done
and
that
I
think
the.
J
J
Similarly,
situated
properties
and
peter,
I
think
there's
a
note
here
for
a
staff
comment
that
we'd.
J
J
J
A
With
the
stipulations,
obviously
miss
margerson,
I
just
want
to
clarify
that
the
street
frontage.
C
Is
really
for
uniformity
not
to
control
density,
and
I
think
it's
less
applicable
in
this
situation.
