At a meeting conducted on August 19, 1998, the Northampton Zoning Board of Appeals
unanimously voted 3:0 to grant the request of Henry F. Kabat for a FINDING under the
provisions of Section 9.3(1)(D) in the Northampton Zoning Ordinance to extend a structure on
a pre-existing nonconforming lot by attaching a tool and storage shed to an existing garage
at 884 Ryan Road, Florence.
Zoning Board Members present and voting were: Chair Mark NeJame, Larry Snyder and
Associate Member Bill Brandt.
The Findings of the Board under Section 9.3(1)(D) for an extension of a structure on a pre-
existing non-conforming lot were as follows:
1. The Board found that the change, extension or alteration will not be substantially
more detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing structure.
2. The Board found that the extension will not extend any closer to any front, side or
rear property boundary than the current zoning allows or existing structure already
extends and will not create any new violation of other zoning provisions;
3. The addition does not involve a sign.
No conditions were imposed with this Finding.
