Finding from the Zoning Board of Appeals.

NATURE OF PROPOSED WORK:
Renovate and expand garage/storage
HARDSHIP:
CONDITION OF APPROVAL:
1)No work can take place on the neighboring property without written permission of the abutter.
2). No portion of the completed structure can be any closer to the property boundary than the closest
section of the existing structure.
FINDINGS:
The designated Zoning Administrator granted the Finding based on the materials and graphics submitted with the application.
The Findings of the Board Administrator under Section 9.3 for an addition in the rear related to side yard setbacks as follows:
1. The Administrator found that the change would not be substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing
nonconforming structure on the lot. The existing footprint is about .7'' from the lot line and the proposed structure would be built the
same distance and no further than this.
2. The Administrator found that the home would not extend any closer to any front, side, or rear property boundary than the current
zoning allows and that the pre-existing structure already extends.
3. The Administrator also determined that the new construction would not create any new violation of other zoning provisions; and does
not involve a sign.
COULD NOT DEROGATE BECAUSE:
