ADDENDUM
The Locus is a 62,876 square foot lot in the LUG -3 Zoning
District, which as a minimum lot area requirement of 120,000
square feet. The Locus contains a single-family dwelling with
attached garage with 2,293 square feet of ground cover
comprising 3.6% ground cover ratio (GCR). The LUG -3 zoning
district allows 3.0% GCR. This nonconformity is a pre-existing
nonconforming condition under Section 139.33A. The main dwelling
was constructed in 1984 when the property was zoned LUG -1, which
allowed for a 7% GCR. The Locus is otherwise dimensionally
conforming under the Zoning Bylaw.
Applicant proposes to remove the existing structure and to
replace it with a new structure. Applicant seeks Special Permit
relief under Section 139.33A(4) to remove the pre-existing
nonconforming structure and replace it with a new structure with
a no larger foot print or ground cover ratio. The new structure
will be conforming to all applicable front, rear and side yard
setback requirements. Such proposed structure is consistent with
other structures and GCRs in the area and the relief sought is
not substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood than the
existing nonconforming structure.
Applicant has preliminary plans and seeks approval of the
relief sought before the Historic District Commission has
approved final plans so that the move can be done to comply with
the Town's prohibition for "Over the Road" permits between June
15 and September 15. Applicant notes that if the permits can be
approved to move the house before the June 15 deadline, a
separate party is planning to accept the exiting structure and
refurbish it as a covenant house for affordable housing.

DECISION:
Book 1496, Page 192
Book 1691, Page 93
Lot 2; Plan Book 19, Page 126
1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals (the "Board") opened on
Thursday, May 9, 2019 in the Conference Room, at 4 Fairgrounds Road; Nantucket.
Massachusetts, the Board made the following Decision on the application of CYNTHIA
M. CASSANO, Trustee of the DORIS MURRAY TRUST, the owner of record at the
time the application was submitted, and RANDOLPH G. SHARP, JR., Trustee of the
RANDOLPH G. SHARP, JR. TRUST, the contract purchaser, ("Applicants") and
current owner, c/o Cohen & Cohen Law PC, 34 Main Street, 2nd Floor, P.O. Box 786,
Nantucket, MA 02554, in File No. 11-19.
2. Applicant is requesting relief by Special Permit pursuant to Zoning By-law Section 139-
33.A(4) in order to demolish a pre-existing nonconforming structure having approximately
2,293 square feet for a ground cover ratio of 3.6% where 3.0% is allowed, and to replace it
with a new structure that retains the nonconforming ground cover ratio ("GCR"). Locus is
situated at 76 Polpis Road, shown on Assessor's Map 43 as Parcel 177 and as Lot 2 upon
Plan Book 19, Page 126. Evidence of priori owner's title is recorded in Book 1496, Page
192 on file at the Nantucket County Registry of Deeds. The site is zoned Limit Use
General -3 (LUG -3).
3. Our decision is based upon the application and accompanying materials and
representations and testimony received at our public hearing. There was no Planning
Board recommendation on the basis that no matters of planning concern were presented.
No opposition to the application, written or oral, was received.
4. Applicant, through its counsel, presented testimony at the public hearing. The Locus, an
undersized corner lot of record having undergone a change of zoning from LUG -1 to
LUG -3, is shown on plan entitled, "Existing Conditions Site Plan to Accompany Zoning
Board of Appeals Application in Nantucket, Mass.", dated April 8, 2019, and prepared by
Blackwell & Associates, Inc., a reduced copy of which is attached herewith as "Exhibit
A". The lot contains 63,146 sq. ft. where 120,000 sq. ft. is the minimum lot area. The
' Per submission of the Application on April 12, 2019, the Locus was owned by Cynthia M. Cassano, Tr. of the
Doris Murray trust who conveyed the Locus to Randolph G. Sharp, Jr., Tr. of the Randolph G. Sharp, Jr. Trust by
deed recorded with the Nantucket Registry of Deeds on April 22, 2019, in Book 1691, Page 93.
X
maximum allowable ground cover would be either a GCR of 3%, which in this case would
be 1,894 sq. ft., or 2,000 sq. ft. pursuant to Section 139-33.E(1)(b) — whichever is greater.
5. When the dwelling was constructed, circa 1984, the lot was zoned LUG -1 where
allowable ground cover was a GCR of 7%, which in this case would have been 4,420 sq.
ft. The Locus contains a single-family dwelling with attached garage having 2,293 square
feet of ground cover, or a GCR of 3.6%. The Locus is otherwise dimensionally
conforming under the Zoning Bylaw. The Applicant proposes to remove the existing
structure and to replace it with a new structure which will retain the same ground cover.
The proposed structure is said to be consistent with other dwelling structures and their
respective ground cover in the area.
6. Therefore, the Applicant is seeking Special Permit relief to remove the pre-existing
nonconforming structure and replace it with a new structure with the same pre-existing
nonconforming ground cover. The relief is requested pursuant to By-law Section 139-
33.A(4) which reads:
Removal and reconstruction of any or all of the preexisting nonconforming structure(s), or
any portion(s) thereof, in excess of the permitted ground cover ratio upon a lot, shall be
allowed by special permit, provided that:
fa
Such special permit shall have been issued prior to the removal of the preexisting
nonconforming structure(s), or any portion(s) thereof,
u (Reserved)
Lc) All reconstructed structure(s), or portion(s) thereof, shall conform to all applicable
,front, rear and side yard setback requirements; unless relief is granted under
separate provisions of this chapter; and
The special permit granting authority shall have made the finding that the result of
the proposed removal and reconstruction shall not be substantially more detrimental
to the neighborhood than the existing nonconforming structure and/or use.
7. Based upon the foregoing, together with the absence of opposition, the Board made the
finding that the requested relief could be granted. The proposed new dwelling shall not be
substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood than the pre-existing ground cover
ratio nonconformity and the new structure shall conform to all applicable front, rear.. and
side yard setback requirements.
8. Accordingly, by a UNANIMOUS vote, the Board GRANTS the requested SPECIAL
PERMIT to remove the pre-existing nonconforming structure and replace it with a new
structure with the same ground cover ratio, which shall not exceed 2,293 square feet of
ground cover.
