10.18.2022 Board of Adjustment
A
Good
evening
and
welcome
to
the
it's
october,
18th
meeting
of
the
the
portsmouth
board
of.
A
Those
minutes
jim
I
have,
mr
chairman,
I
have
a
her
vice
chairman.
Sorry,
I
can
be
jim
okay,
jim.
A
I
do
have
one
or
two
minor
corrections
on
page
five,
the
kind
of
the
second
or
the
first
full.
A
A
The
second
sentence
of
the
second
paragraph
de
minimus
is
misspelled.
It's
d
e
space.
A
So
is
that
all
for
corrections
or
additions,
so
with
the
entertain,
a
motion
to
approve
the.
A
A
A
A
A
A
B
Narrower
by
two
feet,
so
if
we
can
begin
with
slide
two
and
perhaps
make
that
a
bit
larger.
D
D
E
E
Parking
on
islington
street,
so
all
all
parking
must
take
place
either
on
driveways
or
in
garages.
E
E
E
E
F
E
E
E
E
E
E
D
D
This
meeting
and
concerns
mentioned
by
members
of
the
board
of
adjustment-
and
we
have
also
spoken.
I
To
our
neighbors
to
ensure
that
that
we
are
meeting
their
needs
through
these
revisions,
so.
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
Having
a
safer
space
in
the
back
of
the
house,
moreover,
in
terms
of
lot
coverage,
the
area
below.
I
I
Actually,
eight
homes
in
the
immediate
one
mile
radius,
which
have
lot
coverage
of
25
or
over
and.
I
As
we
mentioned,
we
are
a
lot
coverage
now
would
only
be
29
due
to
the
reduced
size
of
the
garage.
I
I
I
Neighbors
lot
line
or
along
our
lot
line,
which
abuts
our
side
neighbor
and
then
it
will
go
right.
I
Up
to
the
other
neighbor,
on
the
other
side,
we
will
also
we've
also
agreed
to
plant
arborvitae.
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
Thanking
you
to
take
into
account
our
concerns
and
we
we
hope
that
we're
able
to
answer
any.
I
No,
how
old
are
your
parents
they're
about
70.,
okay,
but
they
intend
to
live
here
for
the.
I
I
I
Any
claim
as
to
anyone's
personal
definitions,
but
it's
about
aging
in
place
in
your
map.
I
And
the
same
question
with
regard
to
the
eight
or
so
houses
with
lot
coverage
have
any
of
those.
I
I
I'm
not
in
opposition
the
garage,
I
think,
it'll
be
okay
for
them.
To
put
it
there.
I
As
I
stated
the
last
time
I
was
here,
I
had
three
things
that
I
would
like
to
see.
I
The
property,
a
letter
saying
that
they're
gonna
put
a
fence
up
and
what's
the
other
thing.
I
I
I
I
think
it's
great
that
they're
putting
a
garage
up
there.
My
wife
does
too
we
just.
I
Want
it
done
properly
and
the
fence
and
the
survey
and
done
so,
okay,
any
questions.
I.
I
I
So
you
would
have
to
meet
the
front
yard
setback
and
then
it
could
start.
I
And
the
the
survey
is
that
done
as
a
matter
of
routine.
Typically,
we
will
would
require
an.
D
D
J
J
Was
two
feet
off
or
they
were
two
feet
off,
so
that's
why
I
I
was
thinking
about
that.
D
J
My
name
is
jill
tapscott,
I'm
at
163
melbourne
street
and
our
property
is
directly
behind
the.
J
Islington
street
property
and
if,
if
we
could,
actually
I
don't
know
if
you
have
my
document.
J
That
so
I
will
just
I
will
just
look
at
at
mine
and
for
the
for
the
first
criteria.
J
J
J
See
the
the
aerial
picture
that
I
provided,
you
can
see,
and
I
saw
many
times
from
previous.
J
Residents
how
they
comfortably
fit
four
cars
in
that
in
that
driveway
area,
without
parking
on.
J
D
Property
behind
them,
the
their
property,
as
kathleen
mentioned,
does
slope
downhill.
So
the.
H
Water
does
move
down
into
that
area
and
there
is,
there
is
not.
There
is
not
substantial
data.
H
And
the
with
the
the
lack
of
credible
data
and
information
on
the
drainage
system
that.
H
H
H
H
And
my
basement,
our
basement
is
been
so
dry
the
whole
time.
I
probably
shouldn't
say
that.
D
So
that
is
also
a
potential
health
risk.
Is
the
health
risk
from
added
to
added
water.
I
I
The
the
third
and
you
can
and
oh
for
the
for
the
the
lot
setbacks
and
that
picture
that
that.
I
I
I
Old,
just
like
she
pointed
out
my
I'm
one
of
the
yellow
boxes
on
that
map
and
my
shed.
That's
there.
I
I
I
That
that
were
that
were
under
the
the
setbacks,
the
and
also
the
in
the.
If
you
look
at
the.
I
Talking
about
the
character
of
of
the
neighborhood
and
and
if,
if
their
property,.
I
Is
different
from
from
other
properties
in
the
in
the
neighborhood
and
would
it
change.
I
The
character
of
the
neighborhood,
the
aerial
picture
that
that
I
provided
shows
you
a.
I
I
I
In
the
yard
and
the
in
the
basement
and
that
six
cars
between
both
of
their
driveways,
they.
I
Properties
will
not
be
diminished
between
again,
six
properties
can
be
accommodated.
There
would
be.
I
With
the
the
the
grass
being
able
to
handle
some
of
the
water
mitigation
there
and
with
the.
I
Diminish
the
value
and
also
diminish,
especially
especially
causing
permanent
and
constant.
I
For
for
our
for
our
property,
again,
there
is
the
potential
of
the
the
water
damage.
There
is
not.
I
I
I
Drought-
and
there
was
water
levels
were
down
for
everybody,
it
seems
like
and
the,
and
they.
I
I
I
D
A
A
A
A
A
A
Screening
system
across
the
whole
deck,
and
it
is
stated
that
they
would
only
be
an
eight-foot.
A
A
A
38
feet
of
of
a
deck
with
a
multi-generational
family
over
six,
six
plus
people
on
there,
drainage.
A
Has
nothing
to
do
with
the
deck
the
next
one,
but
the
spirit
of
the
of
the
ordinance
they
want.
No.
A
Very
large
deck
is
on
inside
at
a
two-story
level,
and
it
does
threaten
the
the
welfare
and
the.
A
They
don't
carry
like
they
do
across
the
across
at
a
higher
level,
and-
and
there
are,
there
are
two.
A
A
A
More
activity,
more
people,
more
noise
and
and
up
and
a
higher
level
and
more
more
activity.
There.
A
If
they
do
not
get
a
an
eight
foot,
she
has
told
me
that
if
they
do
not
get
an
eight
foot,
deck.
A
Clarify
the
speaking
arrangement,
could
the
young
woman
who
just
spoke
return
a
second
time.
A
And
finish
hers,
of
course,
we
let
people
speak
in
favor
of
the
application
in
opposition
and
then.
A
A
Included,
I
have
never
seen
standing
water
on
jill
tapscott's
property
linda
and
I
walked
the.
I
Her
property
in
the
future
can
reference
by
accessing
the
city
records.
Therefore,.
I
D
In
percentage
than
were
stated
on
the
plans
something
to
be
considered
and
as
I
said,
I.
H
H
Regarding
planning
board
records
and
as
they
apply
to
questions
that
must
be.
H
K
K
K
K
K
K
Regards
to
the
deck
one
of
the
one
of
the
things
with
that
300
304
square
feet
of
the.
K
Deck
that
I
don't
feel
as,
though,
is
a
reasonable
solution
out
there,
due
to
the
impact
that.
K
K
At
a
raised
level,
and
also
there
would
be
some
blockage
from
for
for
privacy
for
all
of
us.
K
K
Back
of
the
property,
the
substantial
justice
will
be
done
that,
with
the
with
the
deck
that.
K
K
K
K
K
Property,
the
the
property
values
will
not
be
diminished
from
and
the
I'm
you
already.
D
K
From
denial,
there
is
no
special
conditions
of
this
property
in
regards
to.
In
regards
to
the
the.
H
Height
the
the
duplex
right
next
to
it
also
has
the
same
height
off
of
off
of
the
back
of.
D
D
Don't
want
somebody
looking
my
window
I'll
close
my
blinds,
but
the
the
comparison
of
the.
D
D
Would
not
make
sense,
so
the
I
don't
see
a
as
other
options
are
available
for
enjoyable.
L
L
L
L
And
that
we
he
would
like
a
letter
about
stating
that
we
would
put
up
a
fence.
We
had.
L
Feet
and
that
that
our
fence
being
put
up
it's
along
our
side
of
the
lot
line,
see.
L
L
In
a
duplex,
not
a
single
family,
home
and
duplexes
require
more
building
and
and
out
buildings.
D
B
The
the
the
two
neighbors,
both
on
on
both
sides
of
of
the
islington
street,.
B
A
sloping
yard
and-
and
that's
that's,
not
the
that's,
not
the
case,
the
deck
that
is
to.
B
That's
to
the
opposite
side
of
of
brad.
Their
deck
is
nowhere's
near
the
size
of
300
square.
B
B
The
islington
street
property
house
that
deck
at
the
duplex
next
to
them,
the
furthest
out
from.
B
B
B
Foot
arborvitaes,
but
that
is
not
in
the
document
that
was
that
was
written
up
by
them.
They
could.
B
D
D
D
D
D
D
A
second,
I
will
say
why
a
second
okay,
first
of
all,
I
just
want
to
say
in
terms
of
granting.
D
E
The
spirit
of
the
ordinance
as
case
law
and
statue
tells
us
we
are
it's
whether.
E
Would
markably
be
different
from
the
underlying
zoning?
Is
whether
or
not
they
would
alter
the.
E
That,
in
this
case,
the
construction
of
a
garage
and
a
deck
to
a
residence
is
not
would
not
alter.
E
E
In
terms
of
the
granting,
the
variance
would
do
substantial
justice.
I
do
not
see
that
there
is.
E
E
Deck
and
the
and
the
garage
and
granting
the
variance
would
not
diminish
the
values.
E
Of
surrounding
properties,
you
know
we
have
no
indication
that
these
this
deck
or
the.
E
E
Loss
of
the
view,
I
understand
that.
However,
you
know
this
is
a
an
improvement
to
this
house
and.
E
E
D
D
And
just
as
a
note,
the
the
rear
yard
setbacks
is
very
de
minimis.
It
is
only
two
feet.
D
Less
than
the
minimum
that
is
allowed
by
zoning,
the
building
coverage
does
increase
by
10
percent.
F
F
Rear
yard
set
back
or
actually
18
inches
up.
I
think,
and
the
left
yard
setback
is
a.
F
Significant
change,
it
is
significantly
less
than
it
is
currently
now.
However,
I
find
that
it
is.
F
I
think
there
are
two
stipulations
that
I
have
to
make.
The
left
side
yard
shall
be
four
feet.
F
D
It's
pretty
close
to
a
lot
of
line.
I
will
not
make
the
stipulation
as
to
the
fence
and.
D
The
property-
okay,
I
think
the
applicant
said
I
mean
they
they
would
have
to
do
an
as.
D
D
D
I
forgot
to
mention
the
rules
of
the
road
before
we
start.
We
generally
allow
15
minutes.
D
D
D
D
The
record
we
read
all
that
all
that
things
that
are
submitted
that
way
you
can
get
your.
D
Fly
so
with
that
said,
number
b
on
the
agenda
is
the
request
of
martin
hansman
for
property.
M
M
I'm
going
to
resist
the
his
on
the
zoom
call:
okay,
mr
hansman's
appearing.
M
M
M
Yes,
we
are
planning
to
put
in
a
new
furnace
in
our
basement
and
it
will
be
heating.
The
first.
M
Floor
of
our
house
with
that
it's
a
40
year
old
furnace,
we
decided
also
to
add
air.
M
Have
a
compressor
outside
for
the
third
floor
of
the
house
and
the
the
contractor
has.
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
Difficult
to
run
the
the
necessary
compressor
lines
to
an
alternate
location.
M
All
right:
do
you
see
any
any
any
of
the
board
have
a
question
for
the
applicant.
No
one,
all.
M
M
Mr
metal,
going
through
the
criteria
taking
10.233.21
and
10.233.22,
granting
the
variants.
M
Of
the
ordinance-
and
I
find
that
would
be
true
for
both
of
them-
we're
talking
about
a
hvac
unit.
M
We
all
need
heat.
We
live
in
new
england
10.233.24
granting
the
variants
would.
M
M
M
The
variants
will
not
be
contrary
to
the
public
interests.
The
mitsubishi
outdoor
unit
is.
M
M
M
M
And
again,
just
stated
how
it's
quiet
and
how
it
only
protrudes
18
inches
from
the
west
wall.
M
Any
any
questions,
any
questions
for
the
applicant
all
right.
Thank
you,
sir.
M
Ordinance
is
observed.
I
do
not
believe
that
the
ordinance
is
intended
to
prevent
the.
M
M
M
Not
be
affected
because
of
the
discrete
quiet
and
basically
hidden
nature
of
the
part
of.
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
Parrott
for
the
many
years
that
he
sat
on
this
board,
my
I
think
I
was
appointed
the
board
in.
M
M
M
M
So
I
believe
everybody
on
this
board
is
probably
familiar
with
this
property.
I.
M
M
M
H
M
E
J
E
I've
included
brief
summaries
of
past
zoning
applications
associated
with
the
property.
I'm.
E
E
E
D
M
Of
the
building
and
a
692
square
foot
addition
to
the
rear
portion
of
it,
the
african
is
proposing.
M
Grc
zoning
district
really
just
running
along
all
of
that
corridor
along
the
cd4l2
behind
it.
So.
D
D
Hurdles
to
clear,
I
have
to
go
through
the
technical
advisory
committee,
which
will.
L
Staff,
which
will
vet
out
issues
surrounding
how
we've
designed
for
traffic
flowing
and
out.
D
The
first
is
related
to
the
variance
from
section
10.575
for
a
dumpster
to
be
located.
C
C
C
C
With
respect
to
occupancy
load
and
it
defines
occupancy
load
as
the
or
occupant
load,
I
should.
C
Design,
in
this
case,
the
applicant
has
proposed
seasonal
outdoor
seating.
It's
open
air,
it's
not.
C
C
Building
itself
in
any
way
they
so
choose,
so
that
we
feel
it
falls
outside
the
definition.
C
C
C
C
C
Property
is
encumbered
by
deed
restrictions
that
prohibit
a
number
of
the
potential
permitted.
C
In
any
plans
to
develop
it
or
redevelop
it,
the
proposed
restaurant
will
operate.
I
I
would
argue.
C
Already
cited
some
examples,
but
the
kitchen
lexi's
joint
liars
bench
are
all
businesses
in
in
that.
D
Occupant
load
per
parking
space
than
you
would
find
with
this
property.
Lexi's
joint
has
a
total.
H
Of
20
occupant
load
of
24.,
they
have
four
parking
spaces.
The
kitchen
has
a
total
of
72.
G
G
G
G
Piled
up
out
front
and
I
think
it'll
generally
make
the
area
a
more
attractive
place
to
live
and.
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
Reasonable
and
consistent
with
the
city's
cd4l2
zoning
and
I
would
submit
to
the
board
that.
G
Surrounding
property
values
would
not
be
diminished
by
granting
the
variance
surrounding.
G
G
G
G
G
Not
all
the
same,
and
in
case
the
board
would
find
it
helpful.
I
did
bring
copies
of
the
the.
G
G
I
I
know
I'm
going
to
have
some
additional
comments.
I
know
there's
probably
some
people.
G
Speak
so
I
think
you
for
the
consideration
of
the
application.
I
know
the
applicant
does
as.
G
Well,
there's
been
a
lot
of
thought:
it's
gone
into
this
and
happy
to
answer
a
question.
G
G
Hi,
thanks
for
coming
back
the
whole
city
is
hoping
that
you
succeed.
I
hope
so.
G
Comes
bubbling
up
to
the
surface.
Every
every
time
is
the
fate
of
the
below
ground
fuel
tanks.
G
And
what
is
the
plan
for
dealing
with
them?
I'm
going
to
let
mr
labrie
speak
to
that
since.
G
G
That's
okay
with
the
board
I'll.
Let
him
address
that
good
evening,
michael
labrie,
those
tanks.
G
In
pretty
good
shape,
the
getty
corporation
as
a
standard
protocol
puts
deed
restrictions.
G
G
D
Reason
would
be,
let's
say
that
you're
going
to
consider
the
outdoor
seating
as
part
of
this.
D
O
O
O
Hi
good
evening
max
rice,
I'm
a
resident
in
the
west
end.
I
live
at
56,
fells,
road
and.
O
O
O
Or
right
across
the
street
from
the
getty
station,
my
one
of
my
park,
I
mean
my
parking
spot
is.
O
D
P
P
P
P
P
End
and
now
this
is
going
to
be
right
right
there
so
to
have
250
people
entering
cars
in
that.
P
P
P
Years
outside
of
a
couple
of
temporary
tenants
and
those
near
crashes
have
personally
witnessed.
P
P
P
P
P
P
P
M
Pages
that
you
had
to
read
today,
including
all
of
our
comments.
Most
people
see
this
proposal
as
a.
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
M
F
F
M
Of
cabot
and
mcdonough,
so
I
have
three
points
I
I
I
mostly
have
concerns
about
the
design
here.
M
The
first
one
is
the
amount
of
people
and
the
privacy
to
the
neighbors.
I
think.
M
The
previous
speaker
spoke
an
awful
lot
about
the
capacities.
I
don't
need
to
say
as
much.
M
But
you
know
it
applies
to
parking
and
to
traffic
there.
So
if
you're
to
go
above
50.
M
The
parking
spots,
if
you
look
at
the
drawing
the
only
thing,
because
I
know
that.
M
M
The
entrance
and
exit
I
lived
here
and
from
in
the
80s-
and
I
was
a
customer
of
gettys
and.
D
N
I
do
agree
that
you
know
I
was
a
frequent
customer
of
kitchen
and
lexi's
and
I
I
drove
there.
N
N
N
N
I
think
you
guys,
I
don't
need
to
tell
you
about
it.
You
think
you
already
know
about
it
right.
I
see
some
nodding
head
still,
so
don't
go
by
me,
okay,
so
if,
in
that
area,
if
you.
N
N
N
N
N
N
N
N
N
N
But
this
person
I
spoke
to
to
one
of
the
people
who
lives
in
the
area
said
that
that.
N
N
N
N
N
N
N
J
That
that
is,
if
you
consider
the
outdoor
seating,
that
is
all
we're
requesting.
It's
74
total.
J
Seats
is
what
we're
asking
for
not
250
nothing
above
74.
also-
and
I
think
this
is
extremely.
J
J
D
G
Times
which
we
know
is
not
the
case,
so
one
other
quick
note
is
with
lexi's
joint
and.
G
G
G
G
G
G
C
C
C
Be
that
as
it
may,
I
did
want
to
just
briefly
bring
eric
weinrip
up
from
all
this
engineering.
Just.
C
O
O
K
K
K
K
K
Right
last
call
2-4
against
the
application.
Mr
chairman,
oh
sorry,
this
technically
is.
K
K
I
will
I
will.
I
will
conclude
my
my
comments.
B
B
It
is
has
to
do
with
the
occupant
load.
I
mean
in
article
15
of
the
ordinance,
which
deals
with.
B
The
outdoor
seating
be
part
of
the
occupant
load,
in
this
case
yeah
and-
and
I
I
think.
B
I
did
speak
to
that
a
bit
my
presentation
but
to
further
those
comments.
And
if
you
look
at.
K
Occupancy
calculations
here
we're
not
a
deck,
we're
not
on
a
structure
that
would
be
applied.
K
For
example,
you
apply
for
a
building
permit
you're,
building
a
deck.
You
need
to
be
able
to.
K
D
K
Is
how
I
apply
the
occupancy
calculations,
but
it
really
is
an
internet
2015
international.
K
Don't
think
so,
since
he's
seen
my
comments
but
but
that's
that's
truly
the
I
believe
the.
K
Intent
and-
and
this
is
just
it's
a
bit
different
here
and
I
and
I
do
think
that
in
part
is
why.
K
K
Yes,
james
beale
here,
yes,
sir,
thank
you
chairman
and
board
of
members.
K
Were
presented
and
everything
it
seems
that
the
the
large
125
year
old
oak
tree
is
non-existent.
K
So
that
makes
me
question
right
away
the
vitality
of
all
the
information
because
they.
K
Choose
to
not
disclose
whether
this
tree
will
be
removed,
or
not
more
so
than
that.
K
K
Would
provide
less
than
50
percent
of
the
required
parking
again?
Parking
is
to
be
issued.
K
At
a
later
date,
however,
everything
is
viable
based
on
the
occupant
load.
Once
again,
we
go.
K
Into
definition,
per
page
15-29
oxygen
load
amended
through
2021
states
that
the
total.
K
K
The
traffic
flow
because
of
less
than
50
percent
parking
spaces
will
become
a.
K
K
This
will
change,
but
these
are
my
concerns.
Like
all
of
us,
we
would
like
to
see
something.
B
For
the
neighborhood,
but
we
as
neighbors
who
live
in
here
on
a
daily
basis,
have
concerns.
B
B
Character
base
to
fit
in
with
the
neighborhoods
little
by
little
those
plans
once
they
were.
B
150
plus
units
proposed,
so
we
as
residents
are
concerned
that
if
a
variance
is
given
for.
B
You
for
listening
to
my
concerns,
and
that
is
all
I
have
to
say
all
right.
Thank
you,
sir.
B
B
You
guys
you
have
a
pretty
thankless
job
at
times,
so
all
of
us
all
of
us
in
the
city
thank.
F
K
K
H
So
that
is
legitimately
what
the
extra
square
footage
is
for,
unlike
the
the
lexi's
need.
D
Their
kitchen
was
really
small
and
we
couldn't
work
in
such
a
kitchen.
So
again
I
thank
you.
D
Guys,
I
hope
you
know
the
other
concerns
can
be
can
be
spoken
to.
I
know
that
the
traffic
is.
D
He
he
thought
about
the
site
and
he
said
hey.
We
can
do
x,
y
and
z
next
to
a
lot
of
the
ideas.
D
D
D
City
changed
that
and
I
want
to
say
it
was
20
2018.
that
there
were
new
regulations.
D
D
D
I
can
get
the
thing
about
gross
floor
area.
It
also
includes
outdoor
covered
terraces
and
porches.
D
But
they
were,
they
did
not
get
more
than
50..
Lexi's
did
not
ask
for
more
than
50
and
we're.
D
All
right,
you
could
quickly,
sir,
absolutely
steve,
and
I
and
only
369
islington
street.
D
I
forgot
to
mention
on
the
concerning
the
easement
that
we
share.
I
have
personally
I
mean.
D
D
Cabot
street,
so
the
50
people.
Obviously
we've
talked
that
to.
D
D
Can
see
weekend,
traffic
and
also
weekdays
and
obviously
there'll
be
a
lot
of
pedestrians
walking.
D
Our
break
okay,
I
mean
yes,
okay,
so,
and
I
just
carry
on
so
I
just
wanted
to
say
a
few
things.
D
D
D
D
D
Building,
so
I
do
not
believe
that
this
10.4
for
o
is
applicable
to
this
application.
D
All
right,
so
any
more
discussion.
D
D
Is
to
use
his
expression
nuanced
because
there's
43
in
and
31
out
and
that's
how
they.
D
D
We're
talking
about
restaurants,
I
looked
at
the
zoning
ordinance
myself.
It's
very
clear.
D
Second-
and
there
is
a
second
okay-
so
I
these
are
hard,
so
variance
number
three
does
not
apply.
D
Coverage
and
also
the
front
line
build
out
and
so
going
to
the
criteria,
and
I
got
to
take
these.
D
All
at
once,
because
that
is
our
usual-
that
is
our
usual
practice,
granting
the
variance
would.
D
D
This
is
a
cd4l2
district,
which
is
allows
for
residential
use
on
the
ground
floor.
It
does
allow.
D
There's
special
conditions
on
this
property
that
that
the
counteract
that
so
and
also
the
cd4.
D
D
D
It
is
there
again
this
is
so
hard
because
there's
so
many
but
the
I
do
not
believe
that.
D
This
is
if
this
alters
the
essential
character
of
the
neighborhood.
There
are
many
restaurants.
D
In
the
neighborhood
lexi's
is
in
the
neighborhood.
Restaurants
are
allowed
by
right.
D
And
welfare
considerations-
I
you
know
this
is
a
fairly
minor
impact
as
it
is
allowed
by
zoning.
D
D
Setbacks
and
also
there
is
for
parking
to
be
allowed
in
the
front
of
a
restaurant
which
lexi's.
D
D
D
D
Public
purpose
of
that,
these
variances
of
the
ordinance
and
the
application
to
this
property.
D
The
proposed
use
is
a
reasonable
one,
because
this
is
a
restaurant
that
is
allowed
for
up
to.
D
Htc
and
playing
board
review
and
approval.
Yes,
that
would
be
a
good
stipulation,
because.
Q
Just
a
few
comments
since
we're
just
approving
one,
two:
four
and
five
correct
peter
and
six
okay.
Q
Q
Q
Than
that
I
approve
all
right
any
any
more
discussion.
I
just
want
to
comment
that
the
media.
Q
Q
Viable
space
there
that
can
be
utilized
for
the
you
know
for
private
and
public
good.
All
right.
Q
Q
Q
Q
You
and
we
are
in
recess
for
a
short
break.
Thank
god
not
too
long,
but
long
enough.
Q
Q
Q
Q
D
I
don't
know
if
you
can
find
it
I'll
keep
going.
You
you've,
you've,
you've
had
it
in
your.
K
H
Anyway,
so
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
proposing
a
new
structure.
You
can
see
it
to
the.
B
Top
left
the
sort
of
the
northeasterly
corner
of
the
of
the
building,
the
existing
driveway
and.
K
Parking
area
will
be
expanded
to
connect
to
it.
It's
going
to
be
essentially
a
four-car
garage.
B
D
D
K
By
the
family
and
the
carriage
house
has
two
apartments:
one
one
bedroom
and
one.
K
D
F
F
F
Of
three
built
three
units
in
two
buildings
and
david
has
compared
the
these
other
multi-units.
F
Within
300
feet,
and
the
bottom
line
is
that
ours
is
the
right
now
it's
got
the
greatest.
F
Hundred
and
seventy
six,
which
is
the
second
and
is
well
above
the
the
average
which
is
41.90.
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
Previously,
up
to
four
units
in
a
single
building
is
allowed
again.
It's
not
a
single.
F
Single
building,
but
we
think
it
compares
favorably
if
you're
converting
a
building
to
up
to
four.
F
D
D
Coverage
height
bulk
yards
variances,
bulk
yards
and
open
space,
we
comply
with
lot
size
building.
D
H
K
K
H
H
R
H
R
Then
we
look
at
the
design
of
facilities
for
access
right
now
you
have
parking.
That's.
R
D
D
Have
up
to
four
inside
parking
spaces,
which
is
a
benefit
environmentally
and
weather-wise
for
for.
D
D
D
D
D
D
In
and
pull
out
as
opposed
to
backing
out,
so
the
public
health,
safety
and
welfare
will
not
be.
D
Threatened
the
third
test,
as
I
do
it
is,
will
the
variances
diminish
surrounding
property
values.
D
R
R
736
metal,
which
is
two
down
on
the
other
side
of
the
middle
664
lincoln,
which
is
karen
and.
R
R
R
R
Distinguish
the
property
from
others
in
the
area,
usually
I'm
in
here
saying
this
lot
is
unique.
R
The
reasonable
location
for
placing
a
garage
or
any
other
structure
and,
as
I
mentioned
before,.
R
R
R
R
Really
won't
be
noticed,
as
I
also
mentioned,
we
need
the
height
building
coverage
and
open.
R
And
then
the
third
and
final
problem
is
that
the
proposed
use
is
reasonable.
The
case
law
says.
R
If
the
use
is
permitted,
it's
deemed
reasonable.
This
use
residential
use
is
permitted.
The
density.
R
R
R
R
R
Living
space
in
an
office
the
office
would
be
for
david.
The
living
space
would.
R
The
10
foot
setback
to
the
rear
yard,
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
what
qualifies
as
the
rear
yard
on.
R
This
lot
is
that
the
one
that
borders
on
733-
yes
good,
very
good
question
peter,
tell
me
if.
R
D
Hearing
does
anyone
here
who
wishes
to
speak
in
in
favor
of
this
application.
B
I
I
will
not
be
supporting
this
application.
I
I
you
know
the
zoning
ordinance
is.
B
So
don't
look
at
me
to
do
it.
Yeah
motion,
but.
B
Beautiful
structure
and
a
beautiful
lot-
and
I
do
think
that
it
will
be
just
a
nice
property
to.
B
B
A
popularity
contest
for
the
where
the
butters
lock
it
or
not-
that's
true,
but
one.
D
D
D
Outweighed
by
a
loss
to
by
potential
loss
to
the
public
value
of
the
surrounding
properties,.
D
S
S
I
was
the
first
one
to
vote
for
a
motion
that
ultimately
passed.
I
think
I
was
the
only
one
that.
S
Stipulation
about
design
and
location
may
change,
because
this
has
to
go
to
htc
and.
S
Planning
board;
yes,
I
so
so,
specifically:
okay,
thanks.
S
S
One
freestanding
dwelling
on
a
lot
I
I
know
is
generally
quite
sacrosanct
and.
S
The
single
family,
residence
district,
but
in
this
case
it's
the
gra
district.
S
Lot
but
the
fact
that
it's
consistent
with
because
due
to
the
lot
size
and
the.
S
How
many
dwellings
per
acre
it's
it's
still
in
in
meeting
with
the
intent
of
the
ordinance.
S
S
S
S
S
Is
that
we
would
like
to
to
add
a
small
dormer
to
the
back
of
the
house,
so
we
can
fit
a
bathroom.
S
S
Way
the
eaves
come
down
I'll,
really
keep
this
simple.
We
we
did
come
in
last
year
for
a.
S
S
S
S
S
S
S
S
On
unless
you
had
any
other
questions,
but
okay,
substantial
justice
is
done.
D
H
It's
kind
of
a
non-visible
thing
from
the
from
the
street
and
I
want
to
say
that
in
the
original.
S
S
S
S
A
it's
a
win-win
for
the
neighborhood
as
well,
and
and
the
the
small
dormer
that
we're.
S
Proposing
is,
is
you
know
it's
not
going
to
diminish
the
view
or
the
look
of
the
building.
S
At
all,
it's
not
highly
visible
from
the
street
or
anything
and
then
finally,
literal
enforcement.
S
S
S
S
If
someone
wants
to
make
a
motion,
we'd
certainly
entertain
that
mr
mantle
I'll
make
a
motion.
S
To
grant
the
variances
as
presented,
thank
you,
sir.
Do
we
have
a
second
somewhere
yeah.
S
S
S
Out
for
the
bathroom,
if
I'm
reading
this
all
correctly,
we've
already
granted.
S
A
one
foot,
side,
setback
and
now
we're
doing
three.
So
it's
an
improvement.
S
S
S
S
D
D
D
Mr
mcdonald,
yes,
mr
mantle,
yes
and
the
chair
of
votious,
so
you're
approved
sir.
Thank
you.
H
H
The
staircase,
the
variance
as
you
noted,
is
needed
because
it's
eight
feet
two
inches
or.
H
I
need
10.
so
right
now
currently
we're
the
structure
is
at
30
20,
I'm
sure
you
all
saw
it.
H
We
want
to
remove
all
of
that
and
then,
if,
when
we
fast
forward
after
we
move
the.
H
Staircase
that
will
be
siding
and
stare
and
siding
the
roof
will
be
done
gutters
and
that.
H
H
Their
letter-
and
I
do
have
that
letter
as
well
because
they
don't
oppose
it
because
they
don't.
B
Actually
end
on
the
side
of
the
building
in
the
corner,
and
then
we
would
build
the
walkway.
D
D
D
I
do
have
a
design
that
was
created.
I
just
get
didn't
have
time
to
get
it
in.
D
Like
drew
that,
but
it
was
me
so
the
steps
will
be
four
feet
wide
by
five
feet:
deep.
D
The
door
will
be
a
36
inch,
36
inch
entrance
just
so
if
a
tenant
does.
T
I
am
going
to
use
higher
ends
material,
I'm
going
to
do
that.
I
do
that
on
all
my
properties.
T
T
That
was
built
on
the
side
of
that
building.
So
to
answer
the
questions,
if
I
can
objectively.
T
In
portsmouth
so
but
the
staircase
I'm
asking
to
move
it
to
the
back,
I'm
going.
T
It'll
add
value
and
it's
in
the
public's
best
interests
or
relocating
the
staircase.
Multiple.
T
T
Staircase,
there's
not
only
notches
and
splits,
but
two
of
the
posts.
Don't
even
re,
meet
the
ground.
T
T
T
That
like
blocking,
but
that
didn't
even
touch
the
ground,
so
it's
safer.
It
won't
be
contract.
T
T
T
It's
most
aesthetically
pleasing
and
easier
the
spirit
of
the
audience.
The
ordinance
will
be.
T
T
Else
until
I
do
the
stairs,
the
new
stairs
will
have
the
land
a
land,
two
landings.
T
T
The
current
location
is
unsafe.
I
think
I
that
the
values
of
surrounding
properties
won't
will.
T
T
T
Yeah
and
it
was
never
super
busy
or
anything,
but
now
it's
got
this
gigantic
residential.
T
T
T
T
And
warehousing
because
I
buy
from
manufacturers
direct,
so
this
will
have
kitchen
and
bath
and.
T
D
So
yeah
so
with
the
condenser,
I
need
a
variance
because
it's
eight
feet.
Two
inches.
D
And
to
the
fence:
it's
actually
nine
feet,
seven
inches,
but
it's
eight
feet.
Two
inches
to
the
lot.
D
The
condenser
one
of
them
does
work,
but
it's
really
I'm
replacing
both
of
them.
B
I'm,
where
they're
at
right
now
so
I'm
going
to
replace
what's
there
with
new
systems.
F
F
Again,
I
ran
by.
I
ran
this
all
by
the
butter
who
wrote
me
a
letter.
F
They're,
all
for
it
and
they're
just
gonna
be
right
there.
One
of
them
is
going
to
be.
F
Underneath
by
the
stairs
on
the
other
side
of
the
stairs,
where
it's
at
right.
F
Now
so
they're
just
being
replaced,
so
the
criteria
really
quickly.
It's.
D
Location,
it
is
going
to
add
value
again
because
the
other
ones
that
are
there
one.
B
Of
them
there's
no
way
that
it
wasn't
noisy
and
one
of
them
never
worked.
Aesthetically
they're.
K
Ocean,
because
it's
in
the
back
of
the
building,
it
won't
be
contrary
to
the
public
interest.
D
They're
going
to
be
against
the
building,
it's
going
to
be
hidden
in
the
back.
You
won't
see
it.
D
D
D
The
whole
mechanics
being
replaced,
100
percent
substantial
justice
will
be
done.
There's
no
gain.
D
To
the
public
to
deny
the
variants
and
it
would
create
hardship,
because
I
need
obviously
heat
hvac.
D
In
the
unit,
the
values
of
surrounding
properties
will
not
be
diminished.
Values
will.
D
The
area
and
the
home
and
the
building
unnecessary
hardship,
it
would
add
hardship.
P
Is
everyone
here
to
wish
us
to
speak
in
in
favor
of
this
application.
P
What's
being
asked
here
is
really
very
simple,
I
think
they're
not
asking
very
much.
Despite
that.
P
P
P
P
Are
considerations
that
he
needs
to
have
and
not
allowing
this
would
not
benefit
anybody
else.
P
P
Mr
mantle,
yes,
mr
mcdonald,
yes,
yes,
miss
martinson,
yes,
miss
eldridge!
Yes,
mr
rossi,.
F
P
Moving
on
to
number,
if.
H
D
D
H
Lu-22-198,
who
is
here
to
speak
to
this
application
good
evening,
my
name
is
tom
emerson,
I'm
the.
H
In
light
of
the
hour
I'll
try
to
be
as
quick
as
possible.
Thank
you.
You
guys
are
probably
familiar.
B
With
this,
this,
the
same
property
was
before
you
earlier
this
year
with
the
previous
owner.
D
Who
was
flipping
the
project,
then
jessica
and
her
husband
bought
the
the
property.
B
The
jessica
and
her
husband
are
moving
to
the
property
with
their.
B
Continue
to
be
a
single
family
home,
the
plan
is
to
to
demolish
the
existing
buildings.
B
And
build
this
new
single-family
home,
one
that
fits
into
the
the
neighborhood
and
diminishes.
B
The
existing
context
it
diminishes
the
existing
non-conformance.
I
guess
the
the
elephant
in.
B
B
B
B
Simply
don't
work
for
a
young
family.
If
you
look
at
in
the
application,
we
show.
B
To
eliminate
the
the
vehicular
pedestrian.
H
D
H
66.75
feet
wide
in
100
foot
zone.
That
leaves
you
46
a
little
over
46
feet
to
put.
F
F
Given
the
hour
we,
you
know,
the
application
addresses
all
of
the
criteria.
It
also
addresses.
F
F
F
Thank
you.
The
variants
will
not
be
contrary
to
the
public
interest,
because.
F
F
That
kind
of
addresses
you
know
not
being
average
to
the
public
interest,
granting.
F
F
By
creating
a
less
safe,
safe,
vehicular
exit
from
the
property
and
would
require
that.
F
F
F
F
F
Fact
that
this
is
a
substantial
improvement
to
the
appearance
and
structures
that.
F
All
right,
thank
you
in
your
second.
I
would
agree
all
the.
F
Propose
are
all
less
non-conforming,
the
current
condition.
So
I
support
the
motion.
F
Thank
you
so
any
discussion
and
I
I
will
say
that
I
will
support
the
motion.
It
does
bring.
F
It
it
does
make
it
less
non-conforming.
I
think
it's
a
shame
to
lose
this
structure.
F
I
understand
the
asbestos
and
the
lead
paint
they're,
usually
ways
to
remediate
that.
But
I
I.
F
F
F
Right
and
adam
g,
sir
adam
g,
the
request
of
thomas
m
hager
hammer,
I'm
sorry,
hammer
revocable,.
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
Just
has
a
second
shift
dormer,
so
let's
I'm
not
familiar
with
this,
but
you
can
just
see.
F
F
F
We're
here
for
that,
I'm
not
sure
it
was
lively,
it
was
very
lively,
but.
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
And
discussion,
or
some
of
the
mistake,
make
the
motion
we're
open
to
that.
F
F
Back
up,
we've
already
seen
this.
This
is
more
of
an
administrative
variance,
because
we've.
F
Already
approved
it
and
just
adding
a
second
dormer
to
the
garage
criteria,
10.233.21
and.
F
Properties,
no,
it
would
not
it's
actually
improve
them
and,
lastly,
10.233.25
literal.
F
Yes,
it
is,
and
just
like
the
previous
application.
F
Elder
your
second,
please,
I
have
nothing
to
ask
all
right.
Thank
you
so
for
any
discussion.
