8.22.2023 Board of Adjustment
B
C
Start
by
saying,
let's
suspend
the
rules
to
consider
co
case
303
or
case
e
for
303
b
street.
B
D
F
Need
to
outline
in
their
application,
so
they
would
like
to
get
those
legally
noticed
and
into.
D
Is
the
date
of
our
september
meeting
19th?
Okay,
I
add
that
it
would
be
postponed.
B
All
the
hearings
tonight
and
that
I
want
to
remind
the
presenters
that
there's
a
15minute.
B
B
B
Matson
is
recused.
Sorry
I'll
just
say
that
the
revised
application
does
speak
to
some
of
the.
D
Specific
objections
that
were
raised
in
the
that
were
the
cause
of
the
denial
for
the
first.
D
Application
and
so
without
making
any
comment
on
the
substantive
issues
of
the
new
applications.
D
I
would
say
it
is
sufficiently
different
not
to
invoke
fiser
vto.
Okay,
anybody.
B
Else
m
m:
I
do
have
concerns
about
when
we
keep
getting
these
subsequent
applications.
G
Fisher
vover
yeah
situations-
and
you
know
I
I
I'm
very
concerned
about
somebody.
G
The
board
and
then
deciding
which
way
to
go
from
there
it's
hard
for
me
as
a
board.
G
Member
to
know
how
much
the
applicant
has
revised
their
application
based
on.
G
Our
comments,
or
it's
merely
just
another,
or
they
realized
that
their
first
ask-
was
a.
G
Little,
I
would
say
ambitious
and
they're
coming
back,
for
you
know
a
second
bite
of
the.
G
Apple,
so
I
I
have
some
concerns
about
these
reapplications
that
we
are
getting.
Those
are
my.
D
Elimination
of
the
duplex
duplexes,
which
was
a
major
point
of
discussion
in
the
original,
can.
B
D
D
Different
right,
absolutely,
mr
ram,
I
saw
your
hand
up
yes,
thank
you,
madam
chair,
so
I
would.
C
Agree
fisher
v
over
would
not
apply
here.
I
do
think
that
there
is
a
substantive
difference.
C
Nine
dwelling
units
down
to
six
dwelling
units
and,
as
noted
by
mr
rossi,
a
change
in
the.
C
Configuration
of
the
of
the
actual
structures
themselves
going
back
to
miss
margon's
point
in.
C
The
10
years
that
I've
been
on
the
board-
this
is,
I
wouldn't
say,
common,
but
it's
not
unheard
of.
C
C
Possibly
agree
to,
and
if
that
doesn't
work
then
they
revise
it
subsequently
and
bring
it
back
in.
C
The
state
which
basically
says
that
you
have
to
be
substantially
different,
they
can
come
back.
C
With
an
application
that
is
in
fact,
substantially
different
and
usually
more
in
conformance
with.
C
C
Tonight
that
sort
of
fall
into
this
category
a
little
disconcerting,
but
also
something
that.
D
B
B
H
Of
the
board,
my
name
is
justin
p.
I'm
a
lawyer
at
dtc
lawyers
here
in
town
joined
tonight
by.
H
H
H
H
Proposal
and
that
which
was
previously
proposed,
miss
goodnight
will
discuss
the
aesthetic
and.
H
Design
for
the
individual,
six
single
family
dwellings
that
are
proposed
by
this
project.
H
Questions
the
board
may
have
so
for
a
quick
property
overview,
we're
in
the
srb
district
here.
H
Is
zoned
business
and
the
area
to
the
west
down
woodbury
avenue?
The
property
itself
is.
H
H
The
western
southern
boundaries
as
well,
it's
abided
by
a
two
family.
Several
two
family.
H
To
the
the
point
about
the
transition,
oh
thank
you,
madam
chair.
The
grade
of
the
of
the.
H
Property
itself
is
also
unique:
it's
it's
about
40
feet
at
elevation
at
maple
avenue
and
it
rises.
H
H
The
critique
of
this
board
at
the
june
hearing,
which,
by
my
recollection,
was
focused
on
the.
H
Density
of
the
project
at
that
time,
as
well
as
the
use
of
four
duplex
buildings
which
of.
H
Course
is
not
permitted
in
the
srb
district
I'll
note
that
the
density
at
that
time.
H
With
nine
units
was
6,975
square
feet
of
lot
area
per
dwelling
unit,
we
had
provided
the
same.
H
Dense
than
two
corresponding
neighborhoods
further
west
on
maplewood
avenue,
so
we
went.
H
H
Be
single
family,
which
is
consistent,
I
think,
with
the
perspective
of
the
board
in
june,
the.
H
Result
is
a
project
which
is
less
dense
not
only
from
the
extended
neighborhood
areas,
but.
H
Also
from
the
immediate
neighborhood
area,
the
new
density
calculation
is
10.
Excuse
me,
10,462.
H
Square
ft
per
of
dwell
of
lot
area
per
dwelling
unit,
which
we
see
as
being
more
aligned.
H
Parking
spaces
were
nonrequired.
We've
provided
a
robust
landscaping
plan
that
will
provide.
H
It's
a
reasonable
propo
proposal,
which
is
consistent
with
the
basic
tenants
of
the
srb.
H
District
very
quickly
regarding
the
density,
the
requested
relief,
as
noted
at
the
top,
is.
H
H
For
each
of
the
six
dwellings
on
the
property,
we've
provided
a
a
density
analysis
which.
H
Is
based
on
the
way
that
the
zoning
ordinance
calculates
density,
which
is
lot
area
per
dwelling.
H
H
Maplewood
we've
also
reased
for
the
frontage
relief.
At
this
point,
frontage
variance
has.
H
Been
given
to
the
previous
religious
assembly
proposal,
frontage
relief
was
granted
by
this
board.
H
At
the
last
hearing
on
on
this
project,
we've
asked
for
it
again
because
it's
it's
slightly.
D
D
Side
and
front
in
rear
yard
setbacks
elsewhere
in
the
neighborhood
versus
what
you
have
here
so.
D
D
H
Foundationally,
certainly
from
the
side
setback
requirements,
this
project
complies
and
doesn't.
H
Anticipate
any
any
relief
for
for
that
piece
of
it
understood.
You
know,
I'm
really
looking
at
the.
D
H
To
have
a
reasonable
amount
of
spacing
between
each
of
the
individual
units,
but
also.
H
H
On
1.44
acres
of
land
in
in
pro
close
proximity
to
downtown
would
be
unique.
So
ultimately,.
H
I
Sheet
is
shown
just
to
go
through
the
plan
set
briefly
shows
the
location,
the
zoning.
I
It
still
has
less
than
50
ft
of
frontage
and
is
long
longer
and
rises
up
from.
I
Maplewood
avenue,
as
you
go
towards
the
back,
so
it
presents
some
challenges
in
that
it
is
a.
I
I
I
I
Pleasing
layout,
the
units
start
on
the
left,
as
you
drive
in
and,
and
you
have,
the
six
units.
I
I
To
property
line
that
does
sort
of
align
with
the
general
light
and
air
between
buildings
in
the.
I
I
Twocc
car
interior
parking
spaces,
they
are
set
back
from
the
street
so
that
guests
can.
I
Park
in
front
of
each
of
the
units-
and
there
is
also
other
dedicated
guest
parking.
I
Occurring
that
is
accessible
by
all
the
units.
So
if
there's
no
other
questions.
B
You
good
evening,
carla
good
night
from
cj
architects.
I
want
to
thank
you
for.
J
Your
positive
comments
last
time
regarding
the
architecture
we
have
maintained
a
lot
of.
J
The
same
details,
traditional
style
in
the
window
organization,
especially
along
the.
J
Front
facade
and
retained
a
lot
of
the
trim
details
with
the
drip
edge.
You
know
providing.
J
Relief
in
the
elevation
over
the
windows,
we
have
flying
gables
and
we
have
covered
entries.
J
They
al
they
have
the
similar
roofline
similar
details
and
in
the
next
application
you
can.
J
See
you
know
this,
this
photograph,
which
kind
of
going
back
and
forth
in
the
office
since
they.
J
This
truly
traditional
neighborhood
and
the
style
and
spacing
that
we
are
proposing.
J
B
H
Two
questions:
the
first
two
criteria
of
the
statutory
variance
criteria
together.
They
are.
H
H
H
That
they
violate
the
ordinance's
basic
zoning
principles,
the
c
the
test
from
the
case
law.
H
As
the
court
as
a
board
is
aware,
is
that
two
questions
are
asked
whether
or
not
the
essential.
H
Pertain
to
regulating
the
aesthetic
of
the
srb
district
again,
the
purpose
of
the
srb
district.
H
H
H
Of
the
lot,
the
the
nature
of
the
existing
built
conditions
around
the
property
to
include
their.
H
H
We
depicted
in
the
enclosures
to
the
board.
We
see
that
as
a
good
transition
from
the
downtown.
H
Area
to
woodbury
avenue,
there's
also
less
traffic
in
this
proposal
than
both
the
previous
nine.
H
Unit
proposal,
the
the
proposal
before
that
with
regards
to
the
religious
assembly,
I
think.
H
In
that
context
there
were
76
peak
trips
in
the
pm
peak
hour.
If,
as
you
saw
on
our.
H
Materials,
and,
and
particularly
with
regards
to
the
exhibit
that
mr
shagon
provided
there
will.
H
So
ultimately,
we
see
that
there
isn't
a
marked
conflict
with
the
proposal
and
the
purposes.
H
Of
the
ordinance-
and
we
see
it
as
satisfying
the
underlying
case
law
test,
because
it
will
be.
H
The
public
health
or
safety,
the
third
criteria
is
whether
or
not
substantial
justice
is
done
by.
H
Granting
the
variance
the
guiding
text
here
is
whether
the
loss
to
the
individual
is.
H
Outweighed
by
the
gain
to
the
general
public
in
and
denying
so,
in
other
words,
there's
got
to
be.
H
Some
gain
to
the
public
in
denying
the
variances,
which
outweighs
the
loss
to
the
applicant
here.
H
Srb
district,
but
in
a
way
that
is
consistent
with
the
neighborhood
as
well,
which,
as
we've.
H
As
we've
advised
is,
is
more
dense
based
on
the
the
lot
area
for
dwelling
unit
calculation.
H
A
manner
the
fourth
issue
is
whether
or
not
the
proposal
will
diminish
surrounding
property.
H
Values,
I
think,
in
this
sense,
we're
relying
on
on
the
density
calculation
really
to
show
that.
H
With
regards
to
the
six
units
that
will
be
on
the
prop
property,
they
will
be
substantially.
H
Or
increasing
value
to
surrounding
properties,
the
last
criteria
is,
is
the
hardship
criteria,
the.
H
H
The
property
and
there's
a
second
requirement
that
the
the
use
be
reasonable.
So
there's
really.
H
Ordinance
and
is
the
use
reasonable
so
quickly
the
certainly
are
special
conditions
here.
This
is.
H
H
Also,
in
light
of
its
grade
and
topography,
it's
it's
also
a
transitional
area,
as
we've
discussed.
H
Which
is
whether
the
purposes
of
the
underlying
ordinance
are
advanced
by
applying
them
to
this.
H
Property
to
deny
the
variance
the
answer
here
is:
no
again.
These
variances
derive
from
the
table.
H
Of
uses
and
the
dimensional
requirements
and
the
inherent
purpose
of
those
ordinances
are
to.
H
H
A
reasonable
use
and
one
most
aligned
with
the
purpose
of
the
srb
district,
so
that
is
our.
H
E
Six
units
you're
proposing
to
build
these
will
be
condo
ownership.
Correct,
yes,
sir
thank.
E
You,
mr
maam.
Yes
thank
you,
madam
chair,
on
page
four
of
your
right
right
up.
It's
page
133
on
our.
C
Boa
packet
middle
well,
upper
half
page
you
go.
Finally,
the
project
incorporates
a
6,500.
C
Ft
recreation
area
as
depicted
on
the
variance
plan
which
the
area
will
serve
as
an
amenity
to.
H
D
Reasonable,
but
now
I
can't
remember
what
it
was:
the
there
was
some
discussion
about.
Basically.
D
That,
where
we
landed
on
that,
my
my
recollection
is
that
the
process
of
building
a
city,
road.
H
That
met
the
design
standards
to
accommodate
a
formal
subdivision
was
the
issue.
Okay,.
K
The
thing
for
another
another
go
around,
I'm
speaking
as
a
real
estate
broker
of
43.
K
Years,
experien
in
lcons
in
three
states,
one
of
the
most
important
things.
This
is.
K
K
From
the
road-
and
I
think
that
would
be
a
perfect
spot
for
this-
and
I
would
you
know.
B
True
anybody,
yes
I'll
start,
so
I
I
believe
this
property
does
have
special
conditions
and.
G
That
it
is
four
times
the
size
that
or
three
times
whatever
it
is
that
the
single
residence
be.
G
Requires
which
is
15,000
square
ft²
lot
area,
and
this
this
lot
area
is
just
over
60,000
ft.
G
I
believe
it
has
a
very
odd
configuration.
It
has
the
very
small
frontage
on
maplewood
avenue.
G
Would
say
that
four
dwellings
per
this
lot
is.
I
would
have
no
problems
with
that,
because.
G
That
would
still
retain
the
the
lot
area
requirements.
The
single
residence
b
district.
G
G
On
this
lot,
and
also
I
you
know,
I
do
wonder-
I
realize
that
you
know
I
lost
the
fisher
v
over.
G
G
G
D
D
C
Make
a
motion
that
we
grant
the
requested
relief
as
presented
and
advertised
okay
is.
B
There
a
second,
I
will
second,
that
okay,
okay,
all
right,
thank
you
so
and
understand.
C
The
comments
of
board
member
marison,
I
mean
I
I'm
always
concerned
too
about
hey,
let's
so
the
we.
C
We
turned
the
temperature
all
the
way
up
that
didn't
really
work.
So
let's
go
down
a
little
bit.
C
And
see
if
that
works,
and
maybe
we
didn't
get
there,
let's,
let's
turn
it
down
a
little
bit
more.
C
Proposing
here
that
they're
they're
meeting
the
fundamental
criteria
that
we
need
to
judge
this
by.
C
C
That,
if
you
could
say
well,
you
know
sub,
you
know,
create
a
four
unit,
condo
you're
meeting
the.
C
At
least
one
of
the
two
criteria
that
we're
being
asked
to
provide
relief
for
is
is
easier.
C
C
Of
this
property
are
it's
sort
of
length
and
positioning
along
the
the
interstate
corridor.
C
Again,
our
real
concern
here
is,
you
know,
density
of
the
units.
I
think
the
applicant
has.
C
Than
many
other
neighborhoods,
probably
close
to
being
what
is
required
for
distance
between.
C
The
homes,
if
this
were
say
more
subdividable
it.
It
really
isn't,
as
the
applicant
has
pointed.
C
Out
the
creating
of
a
of
a
legal
roadway
on
this
would
make
you
know
further,
even
for
the.
C
Conduis
extremely
difficult,
so
they
they've
indicated
about
20
ft
between
the
between
the.
C
C
I
think
in
keep
keeping
with
that
so
going
to
the
criteria,
grant
the
variance
would
not.
C
Be
contrary
to
the
public
interest,
so
really
the
public
interest.
Here
we
combin
that
with
gran.
C
The
variance
would
be
would
observe
the
spirit
of
the
ordinance.
So
what
are
we
really
trying
to.
C
Accomplish
you
know
single
residence
b
yeah,
you
don't
want
to
have
multiple
homes
on
that.
C
But
again
the
unique
shape
of
this
property
with
it
being
long
and
sort
of
narrow
on.
C
Know
take
advantage
of
that
by
putting
multiple
buildings
again,
not
typically
allowed
in
a
or
not.
C
Going
to
provide
an
something,
as
as
someone
is
going
up
and
down
the
neighborhood,
where
they.
C
Would
say
man
that
looks
really
really
strange.
It
is
fundamentally
hidden
from
that,
and
I.
C
This
are
really
they're
they're,
approximating
the
overall
density
of
all
of
those.
They
are
not.
C
Exceeding
that
overall
density
of
those
srb
properties,
not
to
mention
that
just
to
the
east.
C
The
density
aspect
of
it
of
the
number
of
draing
units
per
the
total
square
footage
of
the
lot.
C
I
think
is
reasonable
and
within
what
the
the
spirit
of
the
ordinance
would
have
and
the.
C
C
Of
portsmouth
in
general,
so
with
that,
I
I
think
that
that
they
are
meeting
those
two.
C
Frontage
depth
of
the
lot,
the
the
hill-
that's
some
of
the
topography
associated
with
the
lot.
C
Multiple
homes
that
would
out
outweigh
the
applicant's
ability
to
make
full
use
of
that.
C
Some
some
testimony
here
from
from
the
general
public,
as
well
as
some
description
from.
C
The
applicant
that
that,
basically,
you
know
buted
up
against
a
business
area
and
budded.
C
By
by
really
anyone
on
either
side
as
a
as
something
that
would
be
awkward
or
somehow.
C
Reducing
property
values,
it's
also
burdened
by
a
easement
on
the
rear
of
the
property.
C
So
really,
the
closest
next
closest
homes,
on
the
opposite
side
are
separated
by
some
distance.
C
By
that
that
that
power
line
easement
that
takes
place
there
and
lastly,
the
hardship
and.
C
A
general
residence,
a
district
up
against
an
interstate,
long,
narrow
depth
just
does.
C
Not
look
like
really
any
of
the
other
srb
parcels
that
are
nearby
the
ones
that
well.
C
Closely,
imitated
are
ones
that
have
multiple
buildings
on
them,
including
some
that
were
on.
C
Emory
street
that
were
approved
previously
by
this
board
so
and
that
I
think,
is
in
in
in.
C
You
know
has
some
unique
characteristics:
that's
in
keeping
with
the
because
of
those
unique.
C
Characteristics,
it
allows
more
development
than
what
would
be
normally
able
to
happen.
It
is.
C
You
know
a
use,
that's
permitted
in
the
zone.
So
with
that,
I
I
think
that
we
meets
all.
D
Regard
to
hardship,
and
particularly
as
it
pertains
to
six
structures
on
that
lot,
there.
D
Does
not
defeat
the
public
purpose
of
srb,
because
the
way
the
the
property
is
designed
it
does.
D
Providing
light
and
air
between
buildings
is
achieved
for
what's
required
in
srb.
D
Even
though
that
the
it's
a
little
bit
more
dense
than
what
srb
would
typically.
B
B
B
B
B
Yes,
mr
I'm
sure
I'll
just
say
that
I
have
no
concerns
with
regard
to
fisher
v
over
other.
C
Before
us
once
already
now
a
short
time
later,
coming
before
us
with
something
in
my
impression.
C
Substantially
different,
but
you
know
at
the
same
point
in
time:
that's
that's
the
you
know.
C
The
the
legal
standard
that
we
have
to
abide
by,
it's
really
a
tool
that
the
applicants.
C
Recognize
in
their
tool
box-
and
you
know
it's
not
surprising-
they
take
advantage
of.
C
C
A
substantial
reduction
in
the
total
building
coverage
relief
from
yard
setbacks
is.
C
Is
also
substantially
better
and
it
incorporates
other
concerns
that
were
expressed
by
by.
C
Of
the
structure,
so
I
I
I
think
it
meanss
the
fisher
over
threshold
to
be
considered.
C
G
I
was
denying
this
variance.
It
was
the
lock
coverage
the
43%
that
concerned
me,
because
it.
G
G
Was
the
tear
down
of
an
1870
structure,
and
so
this
this
application
is
still
tearing
down.
G
The
1870
structure,
so
I
do
have
concerns
with
that.
I
will
again
raise
so
I
think
that
I'm.
G
G
Think
perhaps
I
don't
know
how
many
members
of
the
board
shared
those
concerns
of
mine
and.
G
Only
is
perhaps
the
application
could
or
could
not
be
substantially
changed.
The
reality
is
is.
G
That
the
opposition
just
tend
generally
tends
to
decrease
towards
an
application.
The
more.
G
D
Sure
I
just
this
is
for
my
own
edification
under
what
aspect
of
the
zoning
ordinance
is
it.
G
To
reserve
buildings
within
the
historic
district
and
buildings
of
historic
or.
G
To
us,
and
and
given
the
streetcape
on
that
street,
where
they're
all
new
englanders
all
set.
G
Structure
in
new
englander-
that
is
a
concern
to
me,
and
I
think
that
it's
to
me
it
makes
it.
G
G
E
Anything
about
the
demolition
of
the
back
half
of
the
house,
nor
does.
E
M
M
There's
no
variance
needed
and
we're
and
as
a
zoning
board,
we're
addressing
the
variances.
F
Correct
yeah,
I
would
also
just
add,
I
think
this
application
is
closer
to.
M
Invoking
fisher
be
over
than
the
last,
but
I
still
don't
think
that
it
does
because.
M
Coverage
as
is
existing
and
it's
only
1%
over
what's
permitted
or
required,
but
I
do
agree.
M
That
it's
worth
considering
or
yeah,
I
think
that
maybe
we
need
to
separate
fiserv
v,
do
from.
D
Consider
it
meets
the
criteria
and
particularly
observing
the
spirit
of
the
ordinance
which
is.
D
What
I
think
that
miss
margon's
concerns
would
really
fall
under
and,
and
that's
perhaps
an.

B
Within
the
general
residence
c
district
hello
good
evening,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board.
H
H
H
On
the
renderings
and
is
part
of
the
development
team
here
I
I
will
do
a
quick
overview
of
the.
H
Board's
comments
at
the
june
hearing
and
then,
of
course,
we're
available
for
questions.
H
And
I'll
briefly,
summarize,
the
dt,
the
variance
narrative
so
we're
in
the
grc
district,
which
was.
H
Uses
in
limited
services,
we
are
located
on
the
southern
side
of
cabat
street,
closer
to
islington.
H
H
For
the
purposes
of
contrasting
our
project
to
the
area
around
it,
we
view
the
property
as.
H
Unique
as
to
size,
frontage
and
its
proximity
to
the
cd4
district
and
properties
along.
H
Islington
street,
specifically
with
regards
to
size
at
3,865,
ft²
or
roughly
0.89
acres,
it.
H
H
In
the
neighborhood,
more
specifically,
287
cabat
295,
cabat,
3,
303,
cabat
and
311
cabat,
which
are
all.
H
On
the
eastern
side
of
cabat
street,
like
this
property
is
have
less
significantly
left
less.
H
Respectively,
frontage
37t,
37
ft
and
then
38.7
ft,
312
cabat
street,
which
is
on
the
west
side.
H
Of
cabat
is
at
39
ft,
so
unique
as
to
frontage
as
well.
That's
relevant
because
part
of
the
relief.
H
By
2
squ
ft
over
the
existing
condensers,
where
otherwise,
the
proposal
is
making
the
property.
H
Proximity
to
those
properties
along
islington,
located
at
323,
313
and
303
islington,
all
of
which.
H
H
The
relief
that
we're
seeking
the
proposal
here
is
to
raise
remove
the
existing
structure
as
as.
H
H
H
As
a
bathroom
and
the
second
floor,
we'll
have
a
master
bedroom,
two
additional
bedrooms.
H
H
Will
be
a
a
property
which
is
more
conforming
dimensionally
in
every
respect
than
the
existing.
H
H
Be
totally
compliant
with
both
the
rear
and
the
side
yard
right
setbacks
where
the
garage
is.
H
Located
in
those
areas
now
and
then
with
regards
to
building
coverage
where
we
were
proposing.
H
148
square
ft
to
146
squ
ft
the
impervious
surface
area
will
be
reduced
by
by
9.5%.
H
Assessing
data
to
develop
a
a
number
and
what
we
came
up
with
is
in
this
area
between
islington.
H
H
With
regards
to
the
two
properties
which
ab,
but
this
property
287
and
295
cabit,
what
we're.
H
Proposing
is
less
than
the
approximate
building
coverages
that
we
calculated
for
those
properties.
H
Come
up
at
this
point
to
go
over
the
plans
unless
there
are
questions
for
me,
no
okay.
Thank.
H
J
Good
evening,
carla
goodnight
from
cj
architects,
I
wanted
to
start
by
mentioning
that
we
have.
J
Two
letters
of
support
from
a
butter
from
a
butter
and
from
a
member
of
the
neighborhood.
J
Of
my
thoughts
on
the
design
and
the
building,
so
if
you
have
not
had
a
chance
to
review
that.
J
There's
quite
a
bit
in
there
that
I
I
agree
with
design
from
a
design
standpoint
and
one.
J
Of
the
things
that
we
set
out
to
do
in
designing
this
updated
building
is
to
bring
forward
all.
J
Of
the
details
of
on
the
existing
building
into
the
new
building,
you
can
see
the
side
by
side.
J
Rendering
that
captures
you
know
where
we
plan
to
how
we
plan
to
do
that
with
the
trim
and
the.
J
Windows
and
and
so
forth,
one
of
the
challenges
that
we
faced
last
time
was
that
the
front
door.
J
Which
does
actually
create
more
mass
at
that
point,
but
that
was
a
a
preference
of
the
board.
J
So
we
did
that.
We've
also
realized
that
this
footprint,
that
as
proposed,
is
roughly
the
slightly.
J
Of
all
the
buildings
on
the
site,
one
of
the
other
amenities,
the
single
single
car
garage
with.
J
An
allowed
space
in
front
pushed
us
over
the
setback
in
the
last
application,
but
we've
pulled.
J
That
back
several
feet
on
that
side
now,
so
we're
no
longer
looking
for
relief
on
that
side.
J
We
we've
got
that
driveway
pulled
back
and
I
believe
the
other
aspect
of
this
that
I
wanted.
J
J
And
understand
that
a
lot
of
these
buildings
have
fallen
into
significant
disrepair.
The.
J
J
Building
right
now,
that's
in
that
little
lean
to
in
the
back
does
not
have
any
electricity
and.
J
Is
running
on
an
electrical
extension
cord
and
that
the
tax
assessor
had
come
out
to
visit.
J
Her
because
of
the
change
of
ownership
and
had
recommended
to
her
that
his
thought
was
the.
J
Building
would
be
downgraded
from
fair
to
poor
condition.
So
what
we're
trying
to
do
here
is.
J
Just
create
a
a
safe
insulated,
weatherproof
dry,
no
mold,
no
mildew
structure
for
miss.
H
You
so,
as
the
board
knows,
the
supreme
court
has
directed
tbas
in
new
hampshire
to
answer
the.
H
Zoning
objectives,
the
test
from
the
case
law,
is
whether
or
not
the
proposal
will
alter.
H
H
The
board,
it
will
also
be
consistent
with
the
neighborhood,
as
miss
goodnight
just
explained,.
H
H
H
The
right
now
totally
conforming
with
the
rear
guard
setback,
where
both
of
those
setbacks
were.
H
There
will
be
99.5%,
less
impervious
excuse
less
than
prvious
coverage
than
the
existing.
H
H
28
rockingham,
which
is
at
35%
and
is
the
is
the
newest
building,
which
is
directly
behind
the.
H
Property,
the
project
has
been
designed
to
fit
in
and
complement
the
neighborhood.
It's
a
tasteful.
H
The
existing
conditions
and
the
surrounding
conditions,
we
would
say
that
the
proposal.
H
Says
ifies
the
case
law
for
the
same
reasons,
it's
going
to
be
consistent
with
the
character
of.
H
The
neighborhood
and
there
will
be
no
threat
to
the
public,
health
or
safety.
In
fact,
when
you.
H
Account
for
the
reduction
in
purose
service
area
on
the
property.
It's
going
to
be
a
public.
H
H
H
Criteria
is
whether
substantial
justice
is
done.
The
guiding
test
here
is
that
any
loss
to.
H
H
Got
to
be
some
gain
to
the
general
public
from
denying
the
requested
variances
that
outweighs.
H
Here
we
don't
see
the
public
gaining
anything
from
denying
the
requested
variances,
because.
H
H
Will
benefit
from
additional
tax
revenue
and
and
generally
the
law
favors
reasonable
use
of.
H
Of
property
that
is
otherwise
constrained
by
by
size
and
frontage.
Obviously,
the
applicant
benefits.
H
Here
too,
they
will
be
able
to
re
reasonably
redevelop
and
live
on
the
property,
as.
H
We've
explained
in
our
narrative.
Ultimately,
we
see
this
as
a
win-win
for
the
public
and
for.
H
Criteria
is
based
is
is
satisfied.
The
fourth
criteria
involves
the
impact
of
the
project.
H
On
surrounding
property
values
here,
because
we
see
the
project
as
as
creating
a
property.
H
Which
is
more
conforming
as
we've
detailed
to
the
dimensional
requirements
of
the
of
the
zoning.
H
Ordinance
and
what
exists
today,
we
would
say,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
that
it
will
increase
the
value.
H
H
Surrounding
proper
properties
will
benefit
and
be
potentially
impacted,
favorably
from
a
property.
H
Value
perspective,
the
last
criteria
is
the
hardship
criteria.
The
the
test
here
is
whether.
H
H
H
H
H
H
Special
conditions
there
are,
as
I've
noted,
the
lot
is
smaller
on
average
than
the
other.
H
With
regards
to
frontage,
though
smaller
than
the
average
lot
size
in
the
neighborhood,
this.
H
Lot
has
more
frontage,
which
makes
it
better
able
to
accommodate
the
proposal,
particularly.
H
In
the
in
the
context
of
the
building
coverage
variants,
as
I
laid
out
earlier,
the
other.
H
Single
family
residences
on
the
eastern
side
of
cabat
street
have
10
to
12
ft
less
frontage.
H
Than
this
property,
which
has
49
ft
of
frontage,
we
also
see
its
proximity
to
the
cd4
district
and.
H
Those
properties,
particularly
323
islington,
on
islington
street
as
constituting
a
unique.
H
And
a
a
street
side
perspective,
it
won't
present
a
massing
or
issue
particularly.
H
H
Now
the
second
question
is
whether
or
not
the
purposes
of
the
underlying
ordinances
are
advanced.
H
H
Property,
which
is
better
in
every
right
than
the
existing
conditions
with
regards
to
these.
H
H
Goodnight
and
her
staff
have
done
to
accommodate
the
the
aesthetic
of
the
current
neighborhood.
H
To
include
the
front,
facade
and
the
location
of
the
front
door
and
the
bay
window,
etc.
So
on
that.
H
We
would
we
would
wrap
up
our
presentation
again
happy
to
answer
any
questions
from
the.
M
The
same
side
of
cabat
street
are
are
also
less
than
5
ft,
yes,
and
so,
if
you
average
those.
H
H
Of
street
and
this
one
will
be
set
back
further
than
the
existing
property
on
this
lot.
Correct.
O
Presented
via
email,
it
shows
the
actual
visual
differences
between
the
two,
the
entire
shape
of.
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
P
At
286
cabat
street
and
as
I
look
over
this
proposal,
I
like
what
has
happened
in
the.
P
Second
round,
however,
there's
a
few
things
that
I
find
a
bit
disturbing
in
terms
of
the.
P
Application
it
speaks
on
page
10
is
that
if
the
variances
are
denied
it
will
be
difficult.
P
To
redevelop
the
property
28
rockingham
street
directly
behind
it
has
a
lot
that
is
9
squ,
f
feet.
P
To
put
in
a
three-bedroom,
2
and
1
half
bath,
1358
ft
house,
I
understand
that
she
is
trying
to.
P
P
P
P
P
P
P
I'm
sorry,
five
of
those
lots
are
smaller
than
her
lot
and
so
therefore,
the
hard
is
questionable.
P
P
To
the
left
of
her
will
be
determined,
along
with
the
view
from
cabat
street,
so
I
like
the.
P
Design
it
seems
that,
by
having
no
variance
on
the
right
side
of
her
building,
she
is
protecting.
P
P
P
P
J
Everyone's
mind
at
eas
we
did
send
staff
members
out
there
to
you
know
with
a
laser
to.
J
Measure
that
eve
hey,
because
it
was
so
such
a
an
integral
part
of
matching
the
building
design.
J
J
J
The
new
building
at
the
rear
is
actually
slightly
narrower,
causing
the
roof
to
be
a.
J
Little
bit
lower
than
the
other
building
the
than
the
existing
building
and
two
of
our.
J
In
so
that
one
sidey
yard
variance
and
the
other
front
yard
is
those
distances.
J
J
That's
that's
sort
of
how
we
ended
up
there,
especially,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
putting.
J
N
A
comment
that
building
height
is,
in
fact.
M
Determined
as
or
defined
in
our
ordinance
as
being
halfway
between
the
eaves
and
the
ridge.
N
Right
just
for
clarification:
well,
maybe
clarification
for
people
who
know
what
that.
G
M
Building
which
would
be
the
ridge,
the
definition
a
building
height
for
the.
M
Purposes
of
the
ordinance
is
it
measures
if
you
have
the
ridge
and
then
you
have
the.
M
Bottom
of
the
roof,
halfway
between
that
that's
considered,
building
height.
M
Which
is,
in
fact
shown
on
the
elevation
here
for
this
application,
as
25
ft.
M
And
in
fact
fact,
if
it
were
beyond
what's
allowed
there,
a
variance
would
be.
B
Anybody
I
think
this
is
an
interesting
situation.
As
you
know,
I
was
and
am
in.
D
You
could
not
given
a
green
field,
meet
the
zoning
ordinance
and
I
just
don't
see.
D
It,
mr
man,
and
to
you,
know
elaborate
on
what
tom
said.
I
was
unaware
that
the
house
was
being.
E
Applicant,
that
being
said,
it
is
a
clean
slate
and
it's
a
50ft
wide
parcel,
which
means
you
can.
E
Exists.
Anybody,
mr
r,
thank
you.
Madam
chair,
I
mean
I,
I
do
think
a
hardship
exists
here.
I
think.
C
Applicant
has
gone
to
great
lengths
to
try
and
continue
to
keep
the
overall
characteristics
of.
C
This
neighborhood,
I
do
think
you
know
we
we've
heard
from
interested
parties
that
that.
C
C
C
Setback
you're
going
to
need
relief
of
some
sort
for
the
side
setback
and
I
I
think
what
they're.
C
Within
the
within
the
setback,
to
sort
of
keep
that
continuity
from
a
visual
street
aspect.
But.
C
Then
in
the
in
the
new
air
portion
that's
being
proposed
in
the
back
half
of
the
house,
they
are.
C
Actually,
being
you
know,
compliant
to
the
to
the
requirements
or
or
more
so
at
any
rate,.
C
More
more
closely,
it
shows
it
running
right
along
the
the
line,
so
I
think
it's
yeah
in
essence,.
C
There's
a
little
bump
out
in
there,
but
you
know
and
some
utilities
that
are
back
there,
that.
C
C
Property
line
wall
with
a
small
bump
out
for
the
gas
fireplace
and
then
the
the
utility
pads.
C
That
are
placed
in
there.
So
to
me
it
makes
sense
from
a
rhythm
for
the
whole
neighborhood.
C
C
Lck
coverage-
I
always
you
know
they're
1%
off.
I
always
ask
like
why
couldn't
you
get
down
that.
C
C
C
C
C
That
property
line
setback
on
that
side,
so
I
think
they're
meeting
the
the
criteria.
Mr.
M
Yes,
one
thing
I'd
point
out
is
that
the
street
frontage
for
this
general
residency.
M
District
is
actually
70
feet
and
this
is
only
50
feet,
so
it's
20
ft
less
than
what's
allowed.
M
House
which
isn't
unreasonable,
but
there
could
be
certainly
a
hardship
in
the
fact
that.
M
This
lot
is
narrower
than
what's
allowed
by
the
zoning
district,
and
I
think,
regarding.
M
Much
as
I
would
love
to
see
a
historic
building
be
renovated
and
and
saved.
This
is
the
the
next.
M
Best
thing
where
they're,
basically,
the
design
of
this
building,
really
is
being
driven
by.
M
What
is
there,
which
is
that
historic
building,
and
so
the
the
new
building
would
be.
M
No
less
it,
it
would
be
more
conforming
or
closer
to
conforming
than
what's
there,
while
also.
M
Replicating
all
of
the
his
historical
details
of
the
building-
that's
there
miss.
So
I
I
will.
G
Note
that
the
lot
depth
on
this
lot
is
about
27.5
ft
longer
than
is
required
by
the
the
zoning.
G
Ordinance
so
they
do
have
quite
a
bit
of
space
to
go
back
just
the
two
feet
for
the
front
yard.
G
Is
is
that
stuff
can
be
built
on
the
other
sides
of
this
of
this
lot
that
you
know
they're.
G
Trying
to
take
advantage
of
the
open
space
on
the
other
lots,
so
I
think
the
building
coverage
is.
G
Much
better,
I
agree
with
the
comments
on
the
front
yard
and
the
left
yard.
The
left
yard
they're.
G
G
Reality
is
is
that
that
is
a
much
bigger
structure
on
that
lot
line,
that
is
the
closest
to
their.
G
G
Are
definitely
not
similar
to
what
is
in
the
what
is
in
the
rest
of
the
neighborhood?
I.
G
Also
say
you
know-
and
this
is
this
is
my
hobby
horse
kind
of
thing,
but
the
purpose
of
the.
G
This
is
just
outside
the
historic
district.
I
think
the
the
potential
to
change
alter
the
character.
G
Of
this
neighborhood
is
quite
great,
given
that
these
are
five
little
new
englanders
in
a
row
and.
G
A
significantly
bigger
structure
there
onto
their
that
their
butter
is
going
to
have
to.
G
Deal
with
is
is
definitely
a
concern.
I
will
say
that
after
this
last
application,
they
did.
G
Go
on
to
z,
to
see
the
inside
of
this
house,
and
it
is
dated
it
is
worn.
Certainly
I
can't.
G
Say
that
it
looked
like
it
was
condemnable.
It
looked
like
a
very
old,
very
dated
house,
and
so.
G
C
Chair
I'll
make
a
motion
to
grant
the
requested
variances
as
presented
an
advertised.
Is
there
a.
B
Second,
a
second
thank
you,
mr
matson,
okay.
Okay,
so
you
know
again,
as
I
indicated
I
mean
I,
I
think.
C
Only
1%
above,
what's
what's
allowed,
you
know
essentially
essentially
compliant
with
with.
C
C
C
Portion
of
it,
you
know
recreates,
certainly
the
feel
of
the
old
home
that
was
there.
C
And
I
think,
most
importantly
continues
the
look
and
feel
of
the
of
the
neighborhood
as
a
as
a.
C
Whole
you
know
going
to
the
argument
about
you
know:
preserving
historic
structures.
I
really
think.
C
That
we
as
a
board,
need
to
be
extremely
careful
about.
Taking
that
on
somehow
saying
that.
C
One
subparagraph
of
our
general
purpose
and
intent,
which
says
the
preservation
of
historic.
C
C
Board
to
go
and
say
that
structures
that
are
outside
of
the
historic
district
somehow
now.
C
C
I'm
aware
of
there
is
another
outlet
within
the
city,
the
demolition
review
committee.
C
Which
also
has
some
dubious
legal
backing
in
terms
of
any
kind
of
state
statute.
That
would.
C
C
Architectural
significance,
if
it
were,
why
was
it
not
included
when
that
historic
district
was.
C
C
C
Well,
it
does
sadden
me
that
old
structures
can
get
torn
down
but
at
the
same
point
in
time,.
C
There's
ultimately,
property
rights
that
people
have
and
and
possess
and
unless
there's
you.
C
C
For
the
for
the
city,
so
with
that
going
through
the
specific
criteria,
gr,
the
variance.
C
C
Fact
meet
that
you
know,
as
has
been
indicated,
I
believe,
by
board
member
matson.
I
mean
this
is.
C
C
Very
much
like
it
and
continues
a
very
noticeable
rhythm
along
the
street.
So
within
that
I
think.
C
It's
it's
really
meeting
that
the
act
requested
relief
is
is
not
excessive.
It's
wherever
possible.
C
Has
essentially
respected
the
overall
imposition
of
of
walk
coverage?
You
know
in.
C
Could
demonstrate
that
there
would
perhaps
be
no
relief
required,
but
certainly
the
positioning.
C
Applicant
and
other
interested
parties
granted
the
variant
would
do
substantial
justice
again.
C
C
If
there's
some
other
options
you
know,
and
especially
where
there's
a
you
know,
some.
C
Kind
of
structure
nearby
where
you
are
going
to
be
casting
you
know,
loss
of
light
of
light
and.
C
C
The
overall
rhythm
of
the
street
outweighs
any
perceived
need
to
more
fully
enforced.
C
C
You
know
a
victim
of
demolition
by
neglect,
and
you
know
that
sometimes
that
happens
quite.
C
Property-
and
you
know
that's
a
fact
of
of
life
and
at
some
point
in
time
perhaps
there
there.
C
C
Value
of
surrounding
properties,
by
the
virtue
of
its
more
modern
amenities
and
and
the
fact.
C
That
it,
it
is
a
more
structurally
sound
structure
and
then,
lastly,
the
the
hardship.
C
Again,
I
do
think
that
some
of
the
unique
conditions
here
is
is
the
existing,
where.
C
C
C
Overall,
you
know
narrow
width
to
the
to
the
lot.
Not
you
know,
at
least
in
terms
of
relative.
C
To
the
zoning
ordinance-
and
I
do
believe
that
the
the
requested
use
is
a
you
know,.
C
C
M
This
home,
without
a
variance
this
home,
could
be
demolished
and
a
a
new
modern,
contemporary.
M
Home
could
be
built
within
the
setbacks,
so
I
really
do
appreciate
the
amount
of
effort.
M
Application,
yes,
mr
man,
I
will
not
be
supporting
this
application.
While
we
do
have
that
purview.
E
Of
historic
homes,
it
goes
back
to
the
original
application.
For
me,
when
I
asked
the
question
you.
E
E
E
E
B
D
I
want
to
make
a
few
comments
before
I
vote
on
this
to
what
you
know
whatever
before.
D
D
Of
cabin
street,
nor
is
it
the
only
lot
that's
adjacent
to
the
cd4
district,
so
I
don't.
D
See
how
those
aspects
of
the
lot
are
you
know
are
way
in
favor
of
hardship
for
this.
D
Regard
to
whether
or
not
it
we
have
a
basis
for
considering
the
preservation
of
structures.
D
D
D
In
such
determinations,
and
particularly
do
not
think
it's
a
good
idea
to
lay
out
a
course
of.
D
Legal
challenge:
should
we
decide
in
the
future
to
make
that
kind
of
determination
in
my.
D
B
B
B
F
One
well
I'm
sure
that
everybody's
waiting
to
hear
from
me.
I
actually
don't
think.
D
Ordinance
did
anything
actually
change
in
the
application.
It's
the
same
setback
from
the
roof.
D
F
F
The
project
as
well
they
ar
they
don't
need
the
setback
variance
any
longer,
but
I
believe
the.
N
E
The
zoning
changed.
Mr
r.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
I
also
agree.
I
don't
think
fiser
feed
over
replies.
C
Here
I
was
not
part
of
the
board
when
the
last
decision
was
made.
I
was
part
of
the
board.
C
When
the
sort
of
the
first
penthouse
came
before
the
board
and
then
for
this
last
one,
I
did.
C
C
With
the
requirements
of
the
zoning
ordinance,
it
wasn't
a
a
disagree
with
the
idea
of
a.
C
B
B
Q
Q
Since
then,
several
things
have
have
occurred.
First,
the
building
has
approvals
for
a
rooftop.
Q
D
Q
Wanted
to
point
out
boa
4
a
basically
shows
the
existing
approved
status
of
the
roof.
The
ask.
Q
Q
Q
10.1
1530
b2
under
states
at
of
penous,
is
now
treated
like
a
slope
roof
where
height.
Q
Q
Memo
that
alerted
me
to
the
fact
that
42
ft
is
the
actual
permit
actually
what's
permitted.
Q
Q
Have
tonight,
aside
from
the
ordinance
change,
the
penthouse
does
have
reduced.
Q
Q
Q
You
thank
you
john
again.
My
name
is
mark
mhler
from
jsa
design
and
if
I
could
ask
for
you
to.
R
Back
up
a
few
slides
just
to
maybe
number
two
one
more,
please
just
just
to
start
here.
R
R
Includes
a
elevator
and
one
central
ess
stair,
we
brought
the
elevator
up
to
service
the.
R
Roof
deck
that's
being
proposed
in
the
center,
and
that
was
just
to
ensure
that
all
employees
of.
R
Novocure
would
would
have
an
accessible
means
to
enjoy
the
roof
deck.
We
could
have
just
brought.
R
A
stair
up
there
and
not
had
to
go
so
high,
but
that
didn't
feel
the
right
thing
to
do
so.
R
We'
brought
an
elevator
in
there
and
that
really
set
the
the
height
that
the
maximum.
R
R
To
cover
that
and
close
that
with
a
glazed
structure,
next
slide,
please
so
these
were
the.
R
The
two
views
you
just
saw,
slides,
4,
a
and
4b
show
the
the
current
condition
you
see.
R
That
same
essentially
the
same
condition
with
that
green,
essentially,
a
greenhouse
type
structure.
R
Conservatory
type
structure
in
the
center
there
is
an
an
additional
roof
deck
that
you
you
see.
R
Full
fully
operable
windows
door
elements
that
could
then
allow
users
to
step
out
of
that.
R
Parid,
so
it
has
this,
this
softened
buer
all
the
way
around
it
next
slide,
please.
So
there
are.
R
Really
four
views
that
we've
prepared
and
we've
coupled
each
of
the
the
the
computer
views.
R
With
as
close
of
an
actual
photograph
during
construction,
as
you
can
see-
and
the
point
here
was.
R
Just
to
illustrate,
because
of
the
nature
of
this
penthouse
being
set
back,
20
ft
set
back.
R
R
Worth
parking
lot
side
at
at
the
you
you'll
see
that
it's
a
very
minimal
impact
that
one
would
see.
R
From
ground
level,
so
the
next
four
four
slides
show
you
the
extent
of
you
can
just
barely.
R
See
the
the
actual
edge
and
because
of
the
nature
of
what
we're
trying
to
add,
we
are
adding
this.
R
Is
is
quite
a
bit
lower,
so
that's
why
you,
you
can
really
barely
see
it
in
many
of
many
of.
R
R
Illustrate
this,
this
revised
definition
of
the
penthouse
height
so
from
essentially
the.
R
The
elevation
below
would
be
facing
worth
lot,
so
these
are
taken
sort
of
behind
the
parit.
R
So
you
virtually,
no
one
will
see
it
in
this
form.
You'll
see
it
more
more
akin
to
the
perspective.
R
Views
that
that
we
just
finished
sharing,
but
these
just
illustrate
the
intent
that
it.
R
Is
essentially
a
fully
glazed
structure,
I
believe
the
north
side
will
have
more
solid
elements.
R
Where
we
have
some
mechanical
units
adjacent
to
the
structure
and
but
but
by
and
large.
R
As
much
glazing
here
as
possible
and
the
glazing,
the
intent
is
to
have
u
multi-light
windows.
R
It's
not
going
to
look
very
contemporary.
It
will
have
that
sort
of
old
feel
it
will
likely
be.
R
Matching
ing
the
same
color
of
the
windows
that
are
are
being
installed
currently,
which.
R
Is
a
black
aluminum
frame,
so
it
we'll
have
a
a
character
that
is
recalling
some.
R
R
The
intent
at
a
at
a
nighttime-
and
you
can
also
see
the
very
very
subtle

G
Structure
that
you're
putting
on
top
is
14

It's
14t,
yes,
and
because
of
the
way
that
mr.

height
is
mentioned,
the

is,

B
Petition
good
evening,
madame
chair
members
of
the
board,
thank
you
for
your
service
to
our.
S
S
That's
probably
you
know
that
this,
probably
no
one,
that's
more
more
closely
connected
to
that.
S
Property
than
ours
we
have
a
common.
We
share
a
common
wall,
kind
of
like
our
sister
right.
S
S
S
Highly
graded
medical
facility,
that
does
research
and
development
in
cancer,
and
you
look.
S
Way,
shape
or
form,
and
I
I'm
I'm
so
happy
that
novak
care
has
found
it
an
opportunity
to.
S
The
difference
in
people's
lives,
so
I
I
fully
support
it.
I
have
studied
the
the
plan.
S
And
I
applaud
the
fact
that
they
have
now
brought
the
edges
of
the
building
in
closer
to.
S
To
their
neighbors,
you've
heard
other
speakers
here
today.
We
we
don't
see
the
we
won't
see.
S
It
at
all
the
top
of
the
building,
but
from
my
perspective,
given
what
they're
trying
to
do
for.
S
Us
as
citizens
as
residents
as
human
beings,
I
think
their
request
is
very
minimal.
Given
what.
S
S
S
Came
in
and
revitalized
that
entire
building-
and
I
really
do
believe
that
it's
going
to
be
a.
S
Compliment
to
the
that
whole
portwalk
region
and
bring
a
lot
more
spirit,
hope
and.
T
Project
previously,
but
when
I
started
speaking
against
this,
I've
watched
it
very
closely.
It.
T
T
T
T
A
uniform
building
together
as
opposed
to
two
separate
buildings,
so
I
am
supporting
this.
T
That
they've
already
been
granted
also
as
an
abutter
as
if
it's
enclosed,
it
gives
a
lot.
T
T
T
U
Same
social
aspect
for
employees
you'd
get
some
fresh
air,
reduce
the
defay.
The
urban
heat.
U
Sink
and
add
habitat
for
pollinators,
birds
and
bees,
and
also
they
could
set.
B
O
Craziness,
I
forgot
to
send
you
so
I'm
going
to
just
give
you
a
synopsis
of
the
letter
and.
O
I
have
on
the
back
that
it
is
it's
a
flat
roof,
not
a
mansard
roof,
and
you
can
see
that.
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
B
D
Can
I
ask
a
point
of
clarification:
please
do
what
is
the
actual
height,
so
so
47.
C
Incredibly
complicated
because
I
was
looking
through
the
there's-
a
map
also.
B
Oh
than
you
the
same
m,
I
guess
I'd
like
to
make
a
comment
while
we're,
while
I'm.
D
D
D
B
B
Power
or
responsibility
responsibility,
but
I
yeah.
M
Fallacy,
well,
I
have
the
map.
Is
this?
You
request?
No,
I
don't
believe
so.
So
if
you
go
on
5
a-16.
C
Of
our
of
our
zoning
ordinance
so
building
form
principal
building,
building
height
c
map.
C
105A
4330
is
on
5
a-26,
which
goes
through
the
various
allowed
heights,
but
basically
says.
G
Heights
by
2
feet,
so
that's
how
this
this
building
is.
Currently,
let
me
just
get
back
to.
G
This
building
is
currently
40,
but
a
penthouse
with
the
bump
up
for
the
penthouse.
That's
where.
G
A
certain
way,
but
I
think
the
structure
is
the
structure-
is
14
ft,
so
it
is
54
ft
except.
D
Smaller
variance
from
the
height
restriction
more
important,
you
know,
I
weigh
a
5-
foot.
D
D
D
Use
mr
r,
thank
you,
madam
chair
yeah,
so
the
the
building
heights
issue
is
incredibly
complex.
C
Of
the
great
points
is,
is
that
I
mean
we
used
to
have
very
distinctive
building
heights,
that.
C
Comfortable
with
for
our
for
our
downtown,
there
was
a
lot
of
discussion.
There
were
a
number
of.
C
C
C
Allowable
building
height
is
you
know,
good
good
good
points
in
trying
to
not
just
say.
C
Single
building,
that's
that's!
That's
that
high
tried
to
be
have
more
specificity
to
try
and.
C
Create
those
variations
in
our
in
our
downtown
landscape.
Now
that
said,
there's
also
all
kinds
of.
C
How,
but
you
will
kind
of
notice
that
the
new
addition,
that's
next
to
the
what
had
been.
C
The
the
original
cabin
house
building
is
is
somewhat
taller
if
you're
looking
at
page
124
of.
C
Our
package
and
just
kind
of
looking
at
that
rendering
there
it
it
does
end
up
being
somewhat.
C
C
C
Higher
level
for
those
apperences
associated
with
elevators,
stairwells,
etc,
which
in
turn
seems.
C
To
have
created
this
ability
to
to
put
a
p
patio
out
on
the
roof
of
the
old
cabit
house,.
C
Rebuilt
sort
of
cabit
house
structure,
so
you
know
all
very
complicated
one
thing
that
I
would.
C
C
C
Of
variance
that
we
should
allow
should
be
less
with
that
in
mind
right,
so
we
thought,
through.
C
C
C
C
C
We've
looked
at
this
from
a
more
architectural
standpoint
from
more
technical
standpoint,
and
this.
C
If
we
could,
if
we
can
adhere
to
these
kinds
of
ranges,
we
should
have
pleasing
results.
Is.
C
C
Our
our
tolerance
for
variation
should
be
should
be
some
somewhat
less.
By
the
same
token,
you.
C
C
The
surrounding
neighbors,
I
do
think
that
while
there's
you
know,
I
think
I
think
an
outdoor
patio.
C
C
C
To
look
at
here,
I
I
do
think
it
makes
some
sense.
I
I
actually
kind
of
like
the
way
it
sort.
C
Of
is
an
infill
between
two
apperences
that
would
just
sort
of
be
sticking
up.
On
top
of
the.
C
Roof
would
be
visible
from
from
a
ground
level
from
certain
aspects,
so
probably
looking
down.
C
From
handover
street
you
as
you're
coming
down
that
hill,
you
can
probably
perceive
some.
C
C
C
C
C
C
You
would
see,
regardless
of
whether
this
this
structure
was
here.
I
also
think
the
fact
that
it's.
C
C
Have
been
in
the
way
of
letting
light
into
the
middle
of
the
building,
particularly
for
like.
C
Industrial
buildings
where
they
would
add
that
on
because
in
an
age
before
ind,
you
know.
C
U
bright
lighting
that
would
be
available
to
perform
an
industrial
process.
That
was
your
way.
C
Of
getting
light
into
building
so
this
just,
I
think,
some
of
the
things
the
board
needs
to
be.
C
C
C
C
C
It
fit
into
them,
and
I'm
not
clear-cut,
either
way
on
it
and
would
appreciate
more.
G
Without
this
penthouse,
the
variance
needed
for
this
penthouse
that
there
is
hardship.
G
G
Of
the
hardship
needed
to
get
this
variance
very
persuasive,
I
I
realize
there's
a
lot.
G
Of
discussion
around
this
building
throughout
the
city-
and
I
have
to
say
I
never-
I've-
have
not.
G
Followed
it
even
though
my
family
at
one
point
did
own
this
building,
but
you
know
this
has.
G
Now
been
between
in
front
of
us
for,
like
the
third
time
the
zoning
has
changed.
I
recognize
that.
G
G
Know
that
that's
my
impression
also
in
terms
of
their
need
for
it
for
conference
spaces,
they.
G
G
G
G
G
The
first
for
the
first
application
that
mr
ram
has
just
mentioned
in
his
remarks.
But
I
guess.
G
Certain
part
of
me
is
like
you
know,
we
have
said
no
twice
and
I,
but
mostly
for
this
application.
G
I
do
not
see
hardship,
mr
le
I'll
share
sorry,
mr
b
yeah,
so
just
to
share
my
thoughts.
I.
M
Guess,
first
I'll
discuss
hardship
for
a
second
to
me,
the
most
obvious
thing
about
this
property.
M
M
Have
and
lockett
is
the
sister
building
here
and
there's
no
concern
and
in
fact.
M
It
was
supported
by
the
the
owner,
and
so
I
have
less
concerns
about
height,
affecting.
M
Light
air
and
privacy
of
the
neighbors
because
it
has
has
street
or
it
has
asphalt
or.
M
Non-Buildable
area
all
around
it
and
then
for
me
a
big
thing
that
this
project
has
going
for.
M
This
were
a
47t
building
all
the
way
around
built
out
to
the
edge
that
would
have
a
much
taller.
M
Perception
than
this
setback
nature
of
this
and
this
glass
structure,
and
then
I
guess.
M
Furthermore,
that
I
think
initially
I
I
was
surprised
that
all
the
neighbors
were.
M
In
support
of
this,
but
I
guess
it
does
make
sense
that
if
it's
a
already
going
to
be
a
rooftop.
M
Deck
en
closing,
it
would
have
the
positive
benefits
of
containing
the
noise
and
the
light.
M
Somewhat
so
yeah,
I
guess
those
are
my
thoughts
at
this
point.
Would
someone
like
to
make
a
motion.
B
C
Proposal
was
essentially
a
fourth
story.
It
was
set
back
some
dimension
away
from
the
from
the.
C
From
the
wallscape,
but
it
was
a
much
larger,
more
imposing
request
the
one
that
came.
C
Before
this
board,
when
I
wasn't
here,
you
know
quite
a
bit
smaller
and
then
again,
this
is
this.
C
Really
more
of
an
intermittent
use,
probably
during
the
weekdays
of
using
this
as
sort.
C
Of
a
gathering
space,
as
opposed
to
truly
like
somebody
living
there,
247
something
along
those.
C
C
D
Focus
on
the
public
interest:
there
is
no
vested
interest
in
the
public
to
to
deny
the
variance.
D
D
D
So
there
is
no
loss
to
the
public
with
regard
to
the
appearance
of
the
area
or
the
character.
D
Of
the
neighborhood,
should
this
project
be
granted
the
variance
that
would
outweigh.
D
The
loss
to
the
applicant
should
variant
not
be
granted
granting
the
variance
would.
D
Already
taller
and
having
a
pen
house
on
a
neighboring
or
nearby
property
would
have
no.
D
Impact
in
a
negative
way
for
the
value
of
the
other
properties,
I
do
think
that
the
penthouse
as.
D
It's
currently
designed
has
a
very
nice
aesthetic
to
it
and
visual
appeal
and,
to
the
extent
that.
D
It
is
visible
from
some
of
the
other
areas.
It's
going
to
look
a
lot
better
than
just
an
open
flat.
D
Roof
and
therefore,
I
think
it
would
actually
enhance
the
value
with
the
surrounding
properties.
D
When
it
can
be
seen
hardship,
that's
one
that
I
was
struggling
with
here
as
well,
but,
mr
you.
D
Mentioned
something
which
I
think
rings
true,
and
that
is
that,
because
of
the
presence
of.
D
The
apperences
for
the
elevator
on
one
end
and
the
other
and
then
another
apperance
that
I
don't.
D
Know
what
it's
for,
but,
on
the
other
end
that
does
shield
the
sight
line
from
the
properties.
D
D
D
The
penthouse
the
ridge
line,
does
match
up
essentially
with
the
top
level
of
the
apperences.
I.
D
D
D
Relevant
to
the
variance
that
is
being
applied
for
and
to
deny
the
variance
because
of
those.
D
Improve
the
the
way
this
building
fits
in
with
the
surrounding
neighborhood
again
because
of
the.
D
Consistent,
it
would
not
diminish
the
character
of
of
the
area
or
alter
the
character
of
the
area.
D
So
that's
my
shot
at
meeting.
You
know
defining
the
the
five
criteria
for
this
application
does.
B
The
second
have
anything
to
add:
yes,
I'll,
just
add
that
the
doesn't
alter
the
essential.
M
Character
of
the
neighborhood
and
the
most
immediate
example
would
be
jim's
jazz
club.
M
Right
across
from
the
worth
lot
with
its
well
done
glass
structure
and
then,
admittedly
I
I.
M
Struggled,
I
was
debating
the
hardship
a
little
bit
too,
but
I,
the
the
main
part
of
the
hardship.
M
For
me
is
that
the
amount
of
right
rights
of
way
surrounding
essentially
on
all
sides.
M
The
only
other
building
that
could
be
affected,
laretta
being
in
support
of
it.
I
think.
M
And
also
the
other
surrounding
buildings,
a
decent
number
of
them
are
actually
taller.
M
And
then,
regarding
the
fact
that
there's
no
fair
and
substantial
relationship
between
the.
M
Add
some
functional
space
between
the
two
existing
parts
of
the
structure
that
are
already.
M
At
this
height
and
and
this
will
not
in
any
manner
dominate
or
be
out
of
scale
with
the.
M
Neighboring
properties,
so
for
that
reason,
there's
no
fair
and
substantial
relationship.
M
M
B
Comments,
thank
you,
mr
rain
yeah.
Actually,
first,
a
a
query
for
staff,
so
one
of
the
abutters
did.
C
Further
construction
at
the
roof
level,
if
this
were
granted
with
this
motion,
thoughts
on
it.
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
Do
believe
that
the
even
though
this
is
a
glass
structure,
we've
seen
most
glass
structures.
C
In
the
applicant
indicated
it
would
be
dark
sky
compliant.
You
know,
use
the
use,
clever
use
of.
C
Night-
I
don't
you
know,
foresee
this
being
like
this
massive
beacon
of
light
on,
on
top
of
the.
C
C
C
C
C
C
It
stays
the
same,
it
just
simply
provides
a
covering
for
it.
So
that's
just
my
thoughts.
C
Thanks,
I'm
just
going
to
say
that
I'm
going
to
support
the
application
for
many.
B
And
it
may
help
with
the
noise
if
that
roof
were
going
to
be
as
social
as
is
expected,.
B
B
B
Over
this
has
been
a
recording,
for9
kent.
B
Street,
yes,
I
would
say
that
I
don't
think
official
be
over
applies
here.
This.
M
Change
that
and
in
fact
that's
a
unique
condition
of
the
property,
but
we
can
talk.
M
About
that
later,
but
it's
you
know
the
prop:
the
application
has
changed
enough,
that
the.
M
B
V
Application
with
me
tonight
as
well
is
john
shagan
from
id
engineering
and
vicky
martell
from.
V
Woodburn
and
associates
landscaping.
I
think
there
are
also
still
some
members
of
the.
V
Public
that
may
be
interested
in
speaking
to
this
application.
It
sounds
like
you've
addressed.
V
Fiserv
v
do
already,
but
I
have
there's
an
additional
argument
in
the
memorandum
and.
V
B
D
B
Against
okay,
okay,
thank
you
very
much
to
just
illustrate
the
application.
I
think.
V
Is
a
fully
dimensionally
compliant
structure
complies
with
front
and
side
yard
setbacks
as.
V
Well,
as
the
rear
yard
setback,
it
complies
with
building
coverage,
it
complies
with
open.
V
Space,
the
only
thing
it
doesn't
comply
with
is
the
lot
size
and
the
lot
size
per
dwelling.
V
Unit
the
memorandum
submitted
by
attorney
phoenix
and
I
does
include
an
argument.
V
That
I
would
submit
that
you
can
consider
which
is
do
we
need
a
variance
at
all
to
begin
with.
V
I
would
submit
to
you
that
it
that
we
do
not
if
this
this
lot
has
existed
in
its
current.
V
V
A
duplex
that's
less
than
a
foot
off
the
sideline
and
we're
proposing
to
remove
that
and
replace.
V
It
with
a
single
family
home,
that's
12,
ft
from
the
side
lot
line,
we're
decreasing
density.
V
V
V
Any
residential
use
for
which
it's
permitted,
unless,
unless
a
variance
is
granted
or.
V
Home
before
the
zoning
ordinance
came
to
pass
that
any
removal
of
that
house
would
allow.
V
Is
what
we
proposed
and
the
argument
is
laid
out
on
pages
2
and
three
of
the
memorandum.
V
Essentially,
talking
about
section
10.,
311
and
the
language
in
it,
no
user
structure.
V
Use
was
established
in
the
early
1900s
and
not
changing
and
then
further
looking
at
section.
V
10320,
it's
interesting
that
this
treats
tear
downs
and
rebuilds
differently
than
any.
V
Other
destruction,
I
think,
there's
certainly
an
argument
that
that
is
by
design,
but
it
does.
V
Seem
unfair
as
applied,
because
if
this
home
were
destroyed
for
any
other
reason,.
V
Any
variance
at
all,
so
why
should
this
be
any
different?
That
is
the
argument.
V
There
is
no
longer
the
buildup
of
any
grading
above
18
in
so
much
of
the
building
coverage.
V
Is
reduced
from
what
was
previously
proposed,
I
think
by
some
20%,
because
it
was
it
was.
V
Is
25%
and
fully
compliant?
There
is
still
a
landscape
wall
involved
in
the
design,
but.
V
Size
and
lot
size,
p
dwelling
request
again,
there's
a
duplex
there
now.
So
the.
V
That
what
we
propose
to
put
there
is
a
significant
improvement
over
the
existing.
V
V
The
ordinance,
the
regulation
of
the
use
of
land
and
we
intensity
of
land
use
design
of.
V
Of
the
visual
environment
etc-
and
we
talk
a
little
bit
in
each
section-
essentially,
the.
V
Upshot
in
each
section
is
you
have
a
significantly
non-conforming
structure
on
the
site
right
now,.
V
That
it's
quite
dated
the
new
owner
intends
to
remove
that
and
reconstruct
it
in
a
much.
V
More
compliant
configuration
it
will
provide
off
street
parking,
which
does
not
now
exist.
V
It
will
provide
a
12t
setback
to
the
southerly
neighbor,
mr
moles,
and
it
is
also
compliant
with.
V
The
kent
street
and
rockland
street
setbacks
as
aust
adusted
by
the
averaging
of
the
adjacent.
V
Pro
of
the
properties
on
either
side,
so
in
all
respects
it
is
more
conforming.
V
And
less
intense
and
provides
the
off
street
parking.
It
provides
adquate
space
by
contained.
V
Those
reasons
we
would
submit
to
you
that,
as
the
malaki
glen
cas,
says
mere
conflict
with.
V
The
ordinance
isn't
enough:
the
conflict
has
to
be
to
such
a
degree
that
it
undermines
the
basic.
V
V
Today
other
ways
malaki
glenn
looks
at
it
is:
are
you
altering
the
essential
character
of
the.
V
Locality,
or
are
you
threatening
the
public
safety,
health
and
welfare
and
we've
laid
out
in
page.
V
V
Use
in
a
residential
zone,
it's
more,
it's
less,
dense
and
improving
on
existing
conditions
to.
V
The
benefit
of
everyone
granting
the
variances
will
not
diminish
the
surrounding
property
values.
V
Portsmith
that
don't
conform
to
what
today's
ordinance
requires
in
terms
of
existing
lot
size.
V
Or
frontage
or
other
requirements,
that
is
the
case
in
this
neighborhood
as
well,
and.
V
Things
that
cannot
be
remedied
at
all
the
off
street
parking
again
is
a
significant.
V
Improvement
because,
although
there's
a
garage
on
site
now,
there's
no
way
to
access
it.
V
We
have
special
conditions,
given
the
small
and
narrow
size
which
again
cannot
be
remedied.
V
Again,
we're
not
asking
for
dimensional
relief,
we're
not
asking
when
I
say
that
I
mean
we're
not.
V
Asking
for
setback
relief
so
so,
while
there
are
other
properties
in
the
neighborhood
that
are.
V
The
lack
of
on
street
parking
off
street
parking
excuse
me
and
the
fact
that
there's
no
way
to.
V
V
To
you
that
special
conditions
exist,
there's
no
fair
and
substantial
relationship
between
the.
V
And
density
limits
are
to
prevent
overburdening
and
overcrowding
of
the
land
and
permit
space
for.
V
Storm
water
management:
we
are
decreasing
the
burden
on
the
land
by
decreasing
the
intensity
and.
V
Air
white
spase
separation
between
neighbors
and
things
like
that.
So
for
those
reasons.
V
We
would
submit
to
you
that
there's
no
fair
and
substantial
relationship
we
would
submit
to.
V
You
the
proposed
use,
is
reasonable.
It's
deemed
reasonable,
given
that
it's
a
residential
use
in.
V
A
residential
zone
and
substantial
justice
is
done
again,
considering
the
fact
that
the
owner.
V
Is
constitutionally
entitled
to
the
use
of
the
lot
as
a
def
fit,
including
redevelopment
for
a.
V
Which
cannot
be
changed,
given
that
we
are
improving
all
conditions
and
decreasing
the.
V
Density,
there's
no
harm
to
any
neighbor
or
the
general
public
from
granting
the
variants
for
lot.
V
Size
and
lot
size
per
dwelling
unit.
However,
if
you
deny
that
you're,
essentially
denying
any.
V
Residential
use
on
this
property,
which
has
been
developed
and
taxed
as
a
residential
lot.
V
And
and
purchased
with
the
expectation
that
it
could
be
developed
redeveloped
in
a
manner.
V
D
This
actually
requires
a
variance
this
project
we've
had
a
number
of
cases
before
us
recently.
D
D
V
D
Well,
I'm
not
sure,
that's
right,
the
use
is
residential
yeah.
It
was
a
non-conforming.
D
V
The
post,
pre
and
post
construction
impervious
there's
a
little
chart
on
the
left
hand,
side.
V
Will
no
longer
be
a
detached
garage
in
the
proposed
conditions.
Furthermore,
you
can.
D
G
Going
to
go
to
more
practical
things,
the
just
going
to
the
patio
yep
is
the
patio
it
says
here.
G
To
the
plan
set
here,
there
are
a
lot
of
other
things
on
that
patio
again,
I'm
just
having.
V
Wanted
to
or
that
you
could
take
away
with
you
in
leave
when
you
left
in
this
case.
V
It
is
set
in
to
the
ground
a
little
bit,
but
it
requires
no
exterior
mechanicals,
like
the.
V
Thing
is
is
fully
integrated
and
we've
been
advised
that
that
requires
no
relief,
and
so
the.
G
There
appears
to
be
a
structure
around
the
joining
to
the
grill.
What
kind
of
structure
is.
G
V
M
L
V
G
Yes,
I
I
believe
that
complies
it's
within
the
building
envelope.
It's
outside.
V
G
V
M
M
G
C
3.10,
okay,
but
we've
all
learned
that
any
structure-
that's
18
in
above
ground
is
part
of.
E
E
E
V
Side
or
rear
of
your
house
and
in
fact,
there's
an
8ft
fence
on
the
ab
buding
lot
that
runs
along.
V
G
G
See
plans
like
that
have
the
portable
gas
fire
pit
on
it
very
often
it's
just
very
difficult.
G
V
So
yeah
I
just
had
one
question:
is
the
propos
sp
what
some
people
would
call
like
a
hot
tub.
M
W
W
The
accessory
structure
framework-
it's
totally
self-contained,
it
has
the
equipment.

street-
I
am
not
representing
any
party,
as
I.
Z
Z
The
applicants
are
entitled
to
a
variance.
The
requirement
is
that,
in
order
to
be
according
to.
Z
Z
Ft,
there's
no
way
you
can
stretch
the
lot,
so
it
expands
to
7500
square
ft
and
if
you
don't
issue
a.
Z
Variance
they're
not
going
to
they're
not
going
to
be
able
to
build
anything
at
all.
They
won't
be.
Z
Z
Z
Should
be
made,
an
adjustment
should
be
made,
having
in
mind
the
the
fact
that
the
lot,
the.
Z
In
particular,
the
height
of
the
building
effectively,
as
mr
midus
just
pointed
out,.
Z
Effectively,
the
building
is,
is
going
to
be
40
ft
high.
According
to
the
information
sheet.
Z
That
is
provided
by
the
plan
by
the
planning
department,
and
I
assume
the
information
is.
Z
Z
Z
There
is
a
vast
difference
between
a
40
foot
high
building
on
a
7500t
7500
squ
fot
parcel
and
a.
Z
Z
Be
oversized
yeah,
you
have
to
be
permitted
to
build
something,
but
I
don't
think
that
you.
Z
Z
Those
I
think
that
those
changes
ought
to
be
considered
otherwise,
you're
going
to
have.
Z
This
and
as
miss
kaiser's
as
miss
ker's
partner,
mr
phoenix
pointed
out
the
m
matachi.
Z
Glenn
case,
which
he
has
cited
in
his
paperwork,
indicates
that
if
the,
if
the
project
is
going.
Z
That's
one
of
the
requirements
for
granting
a
variance
is
if
the
project
is
going
to.
Z
All
of
those
reasons,
I
hope
that
you
will
make
some
adjustments.
I
hope
that
you'll
make
some.
Z
Adjustments
and
attach
some
stipulations
to
the
to
the
variance,
if
you
grant
it-
and
I
think
you.
Z
Should
grant
some
variance,
but
I
hope
that
you
will
attach
some
stipulations
to
it.
That
reduces.
Z
The
impact
of
this
project
because
as
it
stands
now,
I
think
it's
inappropriate
and
I
haven't.
Z
Z
T

good
evening,
my
name
is
barbara
adams.
I
live
at
7510
street
and
some
of
what
I
was
planning
to.
AA
Say
has
already
been
addressed
quite
adequately.
There
was
one
one
thing
I
wanted
to
point
out.
AA
To
57.8%
lot
coverage,
I
just
wanted
to
point
that
out
the
new
project
application
map,
which.
AA
AA
Of
hardship
which
I
believe
was
denied
in
the
previous
meeting,
what
was
true
then
seems
still.
AA
AA
Kent
street
sort
of,
like
mr
manning
described
earlier
in
his
neighborhood
happened.
I
therefore.
B
Opposition
good
evening
bill
arakan
18
ken
street.
This
proposal
seeks
to
demolish
an.
AB
Existing
structure
and
and
what
is
being
sought,
is
approval
of
a
vastly
oversized
new.
AB
Construction
on
an
undersized
lot,
the
scale
of
what
is
being
proposed
seeks
to
replace
a
home
is.
AB
AB
AB
AB
Standing
to
anyone
standing
on
rockland
street,
looking
at
the
structure,
it's
difficult
to.
AB
But
you
know
this
structure
will
be
over
45
ft
high
and
extend
for
a
length
of
almost
56
ft
a.
AB
AB
AB
Other
side
of

essentially
it

very
it
would
be.

Historical
town,
that
is
one
of
the
things
that
people
have
come
and
enjoyed.
I
guess
I'm
a.
L
Think
about
and
realize
that
there's
no
hardship
here
because
they
bought
this.
B
AC
So
I
do
believe
that
mr
mtis
has
hit
all
points.
If
you
look
at
trying
to
make
a
decision
on.
AC
This
with
the
data
that
is
missing,
I
guess
I
guess
I
don't
know
how
you
could
do
that
there.
AC
AC
AC
Tub
and
a
patio,
I
would
ask
you:
what
is
the
calculation
for
the
lot
coverage
here?
Has
it.
AC
Calculation
next
the
parking
they
claim
that
they
can't
get
to
this
garage,
but
they're.

AD

I
raised
my
hand
multiple
times.
I
even
sent
a
couple
of
text
of
people
that
I
know.
AD
AD
AD
AD
AD
I
I
guess
to
address
this:
I
did
not
attend
the
last
meeting.
I
am
not
in
a
butter,
but.
AD
AD
AD
AD
Are
happening
over
in
the
creek
they've
happened
on
thorton
street
they're
happening
all
over.
AD
AD
AD
We
have
a
committee
and
that
committee
will
take
things
into
under
advisement.
I
would
advise.
AD
Board
is
designed
for
the
essential
character
in
the
history,
as
beth
marson
has
gone
in
pointed.
AD
AD
AD
AD
AD
AD
This
evening,
wiping
the
slate
clean
and
making
it
conform
to
what
was
there.
We
need
to
start.
AD
B
Against
yes,
madam
chair
john
shagan,
representing
the
applicant
and
not
to
to.
I
I
Motives
any
of
the
things
that
people
may
or
may
not
do
with
their
property
that
other
people.
I
Have
opinions
about
we're
here
to
talk
about
the
zoning
ordinance
and
applying
it
dimensionally.
I
And
use
applying
the
the
regulations
for
dimension
and
use
to
this
particular
property.
I
So
briefly,
the
applicant
did
come
before
you
previously
for
a
much
more
aggressive.
I
I
Is
typical
of
what
you
would
see
for
this
type
of
application?
The
plans
will
comply
with
all.
I
The
other
requirements
regarding
development
of
the
lot
we're
not
going
to
increase
runoff
to.
I
Any
neighboring
property
we'll
work
with
the
community
with
in
respect
to
the
driveway.
I
Said
that
the
they're
you
know
using
public
property
for
their
driveway.
Well,
every
driveway.
I
Uses
public
property
to
get
from
the
street
to
your
garage,
so
this
is
typical
of
a
driveway.
I
I
To
access
the
street
that
street
does
exist
and
they
have
a
right
to
access
it.
It's
part.
I
Of
the
original
subdivision,
which
you
have
in
your
packet
has
been
provided.
That
subdivision.
I
From
1899
there
was
actually
a
lot
on
the
other
side
that
never
got
developed.
U,
but
the
street.
I
What
you
see
from
the
park
is
a
second
issue
here.
What
we're
talking
about
are
the
dimensional.
I
I
Coverage
the
structure
has
been
various
people
have
said.
It's
a
four-story
structure.
I
It's
a
three-story
structure
by
definition,
a
three-story
structure
that
is
an
architectural.
I
In
the
ordinance
that
says
that
you
should
vary
the
height
of
a
structure
based
on
the.
I
Condition
that
this
lot
be
because
it's
of
its
size
requires
a
special
height
requirement.
I
So
that's,
I
guess,
just
to
put
some
facts
back
into
the
record.
That's
all
I
have
at
this
moment.
Z
He
it's
exceptional,
but
I
yeah
so
your
reference
for
the
height
just
to
make
sure.
N
I
Grade
every
5
ft-
and
that
is
shown
on
this
plan
the
average
grade
and
then
the.
C
Dimension
would
be
for
the
existing
building
to
your
average
grade
or
roughly,
like
the
29.
C
Ft,
I
do
not.
I
know
that
just
looking
at
a
pict
picture,
I
believe
it's
wider
and.
I
G
I
In
order
to
get
the
parking
that
the
client
desires
from
the
street,
it
is
going
to
go
down.
I
Build
in
downtown
portsmouth
whether
there's
parking
below
street
level,
you
need
to
go
down.
I
I
I
I
275,
we
don't
have
theg
grading
plan,
but
it's
pretty
close
to
35
or
so
so
I
don't
think.
I
Grade
mr
matson,
I
guess
to
ask
more
directly:
are
you
changing
the
grade.
I
Changes
along
the
rockland
street
side
to
and
if
you
look
at
the
next
sheet,
there's.
I
Entrance
so
to
make
that
all
one
grade
and
that
will
soften
the
look
of
the.
C
C
I
The
calculated
average
existing
grade
the
house
is
the
height
of
the
house
proposed
is.
I
I
Okay
and
once
it's
higher
than
that,
it
becomes
a
structure
and
the
previous.
That
was
why
it
was.
I
C
G
V
M
AC
AC
V
V
V
V
V
V
V
This
is
not
a
5,000
ft
home
and
by
the
way,
the
existing
home
is
not
a
single
story.
It's
a.
V
V
V
B
B
Of
the
structure,
please
don't
soret
hi
peter
smith,
property
owner.
It's
it's
not
really.
AE
E
B
M
I
B
I
have
anything
else,
yeah
a
couple
of
questions:
I'm
going
to
go
back
to
the
existing
gr
fors.
G
G
F
That
they
have
to
get
some
permission
from
dpw
for
a
driveway
permit,
but
the
rightway
exists
for.
G
That
I
know
I
wanted
to
hear
from
city
staff
all
right
so
and
then
the
other
question
was.
G
Impression
that
that
was
changed
to
allow
to
stop
people
from
actually
you
know
do
I
think
what.
I
I
I
I
I
Mentioned
to
make
it
flat
around
the
front
of
the
house:
okay,
okay
and
then
you
have
the
driveway.
I
I
More
than
18,
in
so
with
any
construction,
there's
changes
to
grade
as
a
result
of
the.
D
V
Coverage
and
the
open
space
coverage
as
well,
because
there
have
been
representations
made
that.
V
We're
still
12%
above
the
minimum,
open
space
requirement
and
I
think,
as
I've
said
before,.
X
There's
insufficient
ev
evidence
or
plans
provided
to
this
board
to
make
an.
X
Property
files
up
from
the
street
desire
and
no
grading
plan.
So
let's
be
clear
from.
B
Closed,
mr
matson,
yes
I'll
just
make
a
few
comments
yeah.
So
previously
I.
M
Voted
to
deny
this
application,
and
a
lot
of
that
was
very
well
spoken
to
by.
M
Do
believe
that
a
lot
of
those
changes
have
been
addressed
most
most
notably
just.
M
These
variance
criteria,
all
all
the
other
other
variance
criteria
that
could
be
addressed.
M
Is
this
application
is
sufficient
as
much
as
I
I
prefer
more
information,
and
I
I.
M
Enjoy
renderings
and
and
things
that
would
be
at
the
expense
of
the
applicant
they're.
M
Application
is
here
and
granted.
These
are
complex,
architectural
drawings
that
require.
M
Some
interpretation,
the
information,
is
on
the
the
paper
and
I
independent
of
my.
M
Personal
preferences
for
aesthetics
and
what
not
the
for
for
us
actually
addressing.
M
The
variance
criteria
of
altering
the
essential
character
it's
in
regard
to.
M
A
use
not
the
the
look
of
the
building,
it's
or
not,
not
the
structure,
it's
the
the.
M
Proposed
use
must
not
alter
the
essential
character,
and,
and
this
is
a
single
family
home.
M
So,
independent
of
my
personal
aesthetics,
that's
what
we're
required
to
stick
to
okay!
Thank.
D
D
D
D
D
D
D
D
Decades,
not
with
you
know
the
situation
and
those
guys.
I'm
talking
about
the
family,
oriented.
D
D
D
D
Expensive
property
improvement
program.
Having
said
that,
I
do
think
that
this
proposed
use.
D
D
G
G
U
C
M
Sure
how
important
it
is,
but
on
woodburry
ab
across
from
the
frank
jones
mansion
there's
some.
M
1950S
to
60s
ranches
that
drive
down
into
a
single
car
garage,
no
just
curious.
I've
never
seen.
L
Do
madam
jif,
I
I
mean
it
is
it
is
late,
I
don't
know
if
the
board
feels
like
they've
had
enough.
C
B
You
base
that
on
needing
more
information
could
be
more
rumination
more.
It
could
be
any
of.
C
Do
we
make
it
worse
by
making
a
decision
you
know,
without
all
the
information
or
without
the.
G
Vote
to
continue
this
application,
because
I
I
find
this
very
confusing-
and
you
know
with.
G
Not
been
able
to
get
answers,
I
I
would
like
to
see
renderings
it's
just
it's
very.
G
Difficult
for
me
to
visualize
what
this
is
going
to
look
like.
I
I
I
feel
like
I
need
more
time.
G
To
digest
what
has
been
said
tonight,
and
also,
I
would
support
moving
to
continue
this
to.
E
That
end,
I
was
going
to
make
a
motion
to
deny
the
application
and
if
I
get
a
second
I'll
speak.
E
B
And
then
we
went,
we
went
into
po
atonement
mode
I'll,
second,
that
I
appreciate
the
applicants.
E
Work
as
far
as
reducing
all
the
variances
and
skirting
the
18
in
on
the
solid
block
patio
so.
E
It
doesn't
have
to
be
part
of
the
structure,
but
I
only
need
one
criteria:
10.
23321
granting.
E
E
E
This
structure,
I
think
a
lot
of
information
would
have
been
better,
but
that's
not
what
was.
E
Presented
so
so
we're
left
with
what
we
have,
and
I
think,
if
we
grant
this
as
presented.
E
D
D
D
B
B
C
Do
think
that
some
of
the
board
members
need
more
time
with
this
application.
I
I
probably
feel
a.
C
Bit
more
prepared
with
it,
but
I
I
think
to
have
the
board
truly
think
about
it
carefully.
N
E
B
B
B
Are
not
denied,
I
would
move
that
we
continue
this
application
until
september
september
board.
G
Meeting
and
my
motion
would
be
that
you
present
us
with
some
of
the
answers.
G
That
we
have
asked
for
tonight
and
a
fuller
application
packet.
I
mean
that's
my
motion.
