NATURE OF PROPOSED WORK:
DEMO 20 X 20 BARN & REPLACE W/20 X 20 LIVING SPACE
HARDSHIP:
CONDITION OF APPROVAL:
1)All access to the lot for demolition and removal of material and construction shall be done over the
Rust Avenue access and not on Chapel Street.
FINDINGS:
The Board Administrator issued the permit based on the information in the application and from the hearing. The Administrator granted
the Finding based upon:
Section 9.3 for renovatoin of a two story barn to extend the height but remain in the same footprint. The Administrator found that the
change would not be substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing nonconforming structure on the lot.
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.
