DECISION:
ZA Decision 02-18
Certificate of Title No.26651
Shown as Lots A-1 & A-5
Land Court Plans 85970 & 8597E
Upon review of the Application submitted by the Applicant, the Zoning Administrator
determined pursuant to Nantucket Zoning By -Law Section 139-33.A(1)(b) that the
proposed alteration, extension, and structural changes to the pre-existing non -conforming
structure upon the pre-existing nonconforming locus do not increase the non -conforming
nature of the structure or the locus.
2. The Applicant proposes to alter the pre-existing nonconforming garage structure by
renovating and replacing the existing foundation. The structure will be no closer to the
front or side yard lot lines than the existing structure as a result of the proposed
alterations and no new nonconformities will be created. The proposed project has been
granted Historic District Commission approval by virtue of Certificate of
Appropriateness 69545.
The Locus, as shown on plan entitled, "Existing Conditions Plan in Nantucket,
Massachusetts", dated September 7, 2017, and prepared by Bracken Engineering, Inc., a
reduced copy of which is attached hereto as "Exhibit A", is a long narrow oceanfront lot
having split zoning. The northern buildable portion of the locus, where the existing
garage and dwelling are located, is zoned Residential 20. The southern portion is zoned
Limited Use General 2 and has a restricted buildable area due to a coastal dune extending
south of the split zoning line. Zoning By-law Section 139-5 (Determination of
boundaries) was recently amended by virtue of passage of Article 19 at the Special Town
Meeting on November 6, 2017. The amended Section 139-51 now reads:
When a boundary line between zoning districts divides a lot in single
ownership and the line does not fall within 30 feet of a lot line, each portion
of the lot shall be governed by the use and yard setback requirements of the
zoning district in which it is located. Ground cover shall be applied to the
entire lot and shall be the combined total of the ground cover allowed for
the portion of the lot in each zoning district in which it is located.
4. The premises contain approximately 79,425 square feet of lot area. Minimum lot size in
the R-20 is 20,000 square feet and maximum allowable ground cover is 12.5%. Minimum
lot size in the LUG -2 is 80,000 square feet and maximum allowable ground cover is 7%.
The property is improved with a 968 square foot single family dwelling and the subject
302 square foot garage structure for a total existing ground cover 1,270 square feet.
5. The garage structure is said to have been built circa 1950, prior to the 1972 adoption of
the Nantucket Zoning By -Law and, as such, is pre-existing nonconforming with respect
to the intensity regulations pursuant to Section 139-16.A. Specifically, in a district which
requires a minimum ten (10) foot side yard setback and minimum thirty (30) foot front
yard setback, the single story garage structure is sited roughly 1.6 feet from the westerly
side yard lot line and 11.2 feet from the northerly front yard lot line at its closest points.
6. The proposal consists of a replacement of the existing slab foundation and structural
renovation of the garage without any change in footprint or ground cover. The ridge
height of the garage will increase from roughly fourteen (14) feet to eighteen (18) feet.
Although the alteration and expansion will result in a slight vertical extension of the side
and front yard setback intrusions, the structure as so altered shall be sited no closer to
either lot line than the existing structure.
7. Based upon the foregoing, the Zoning Administrator finds that the proposed alterations
and vertical expansion of the garage sited within the front and side yard setbacks will not
increase the nonconforming nature of the dwelling structure or the locus, and will not
create any new nonconformities and hereby issues the permit as requested. This approval
is subject to the following condition:
a) The proposed alterations shall be performed in substantial accordance with
Certificate of Appropriateness No. 69545 granted by the Nantucket Historic
District Commission, as the same may be amended from time to time.

DECISION:
Certificate of Title No. 26651
Shown as Lots A-1 & A-5
Land Court Plans 8597 & 8597E
1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals, on Thursday, June
13, 2019, at 1:00 PM, in the First Floor Community Room of the Public Safety
Facility at Four Fairgrounds Road, Nantucket, Massachusetts, the Board made the
following decision on the application of 9 SWAIN STREET, LLC, 5311
Moorland Lane, Bethesda, Maryland 20814, File No. 15-19.
2. Applicant is requesting Variance relief pursuant to Nantucket Zoning By-law
Section 139-32 for a waiver from the front yard setback provisions of Section 139-
16.A. Specifically, applicant seeks to validate the As -Built dwelling with only the
chimney sited as close as 29.8 feet from the front yard lot line where a thirty (30)
foot front yard setback is required. The remainder of the front elevation massing is
sited in compliance with the thirty (30) foot front yard setback requirement. The lot
has an area of 79,470 sq. ft., with a limited available building envelope due to
shape, zoning setbacks, soil conditions, wetlands with associate buffer zones, and
split zoning. The Locus is situated at 36 Western Avenue, is shown on Assessor's
Map 87 as Parcel 133, and as Lots A-1 & A-5 upon Land Court Plans 8597-C &
8597-E. Evidence of owner's title is registered on Certificate of Title No. 26651 at
the Nantucket County District of the Land Court. The site is zoned Residential 20
(R-20) and Limited Use General 2 (LUG -2).
3. Our decision is based upon the application and accompanying materials,
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. There was no opposition, written or oral, to the application.
4. The Locus benefits from prior Zoning Administrator relief in 2018 (ZA No. 02-18;
registered as Document No. 158142) to alter the pre-existing nonconforming garage
0
structure. The proposal consisted of replacing the existing slab foundation and
structural renovation of the garage without any change in footprint or ground cover.
The ridge height of the garage increased from roughly fourteen (14) to eighteen (18)
feet, resulting in a slight vertical extension of the westerly side and northerly front
yard setback intrusions.
5. The Locus, as shown on plan entitled "Final As -Built in Nantucket, Massachusetts",
dated May 15, 2019 (attached herewith as "Exhibit A"), has 79,425 square feet of
lot area and is a long narrow oceanfront lot having split zoning. The northern
buildable portion of the locus, where the existing garage and subject Dwelling Unit
are located, is zoned R-20. The southern portion is zoned LUG -2 and has a
restricted buildable area due to a coastal dune extending south of the split zoning
line. Zoning By-law Section 139-5 (Determination of boundaries) was amended by
virtue of passage of Article 19 at the STM on November 6, 2017. The amended
Section 139-5.F reads:
When a boundary line between zoning districts divides a lot in single ownership
and the line does not fall within 30 feet of a lot line, each portion of the lot shall
be governed by the use and yard setback requirements of the zoning district in
which it is located. Ground cover shall be applied to the entire lot and shall be
the combined total of the ground cover allowed for the portion of the lot in each
zoning district in which it is located.
6. Minimum lot size in the R-20 is 20,000 sq. ft. and maximum allowable Ground
Cover Ratio ("GCR") is 12.5%. Minimum lot size in the LUG -2 is 80,000 sq. ft.
and maximum allowable GCR is 7%. The property is improved with a 1,845 sq. ft.
single family dwlling and the 302 sq. ft. altered garage structure for a total existing
ground cover 2,147 sq. ft. The former 968 sq. ft. dwelling, which was sited 24.7
feet from the front yard lot line, was demolished and replaced with this larger
dwelling.
7. Applicant, as represented by the construction contractor, maintains that the chimney
was inadvertently sited 29.8 feet from the front yard lot line where minimum
setback is thirty (30) feet. The garage is sited as close as 11.2 feet from the front
yard lot line. Although the subject intrusion is considerably less intensive than that
of the pre-existing nonconforming garage, the current new dwelling does not
benefit from the status of a pre-existing nonconforming structure.
8. The contractor explained that due to an error in calculations, the chimney ended up
being sited approximately 2.4 inches into the thirty (30) foot front setback. When
they demolished the previous dwelling, which was pre-existing nonconforming as
3
to front yard setback, they moved the newly sited dwelling further back attempting
to getting it completely out of the front yard setback. The lot is nearly nine -hundred
(900) feet long but the buildable area is restricted to fifty (50) feet due to coastal
dune. As such, Applicants are seeking relief to allow a de minimis intrusion into the
front yard setback brought about by the unintentional siting of a portion of the
chimney 29.8 feet from the front yard lot line.
9. Therefore, pursuant to Section 139-32, the Board made the finding that Variance
relief may be granted to validate the siting of the dwelling owing to circumstances
relating to soil conditions, shape or topography of such land or structures but not
affecting generally the zoning district in which it is located, and that a literal
enforcement of the provisions of this chapter would involve substantial financial
hardship, to comply with the intensity regulations of the R-20 zoning district. As
such, desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public
good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent or purpose
of such By-law.
10. Accordingly, by a UNANIMOUS vote of the sitting Board, the Board grants relief
by VARIANCE pursuant to Zoning By-law Section 139-32 from the provisions in
Section 139-16 to approve the siting of the residential structure on the Locus as
shown on the attached "Exhibit A", subject to the condition that there shall be no
further expansion within the front or side yard setbacks without further relief from
this Board.
