RE: 4 Shawkemo
The applicants seek a Special Permit under Nantucket Zoning By-law (the "By-law)
§ 139-33.A(4) to remove and reconstruct any or all of the preexisting nonconforming
structures or any portion thereof in excess of the permitted ground cover ratio upon the
Locus.
Applicants property contains a dwelling and garage with a total existing ground over of
2110 sq. feet. These buildings compiled with ground cover requirements at the time of
construction. However the zoning changed from LUG -I to LUG -I11 and now the ground
cover is "pre-existing non -conforming". The locus has a lot area of 41,100 sq. feet and a
pre-existing ground cover of 2110 sq. feet. The allowable ground cover under LUG -III
requirements is 1233 sq. feet. The south-east corner of the house intrudes on the front and
side -yard set -back requirements and a portion of the garage also intrudes upon the front
yard set -back. Both structures have existed in their present configuration for more than
ten years. Applicant intends to undertake renovations and/or partial demolition to the
property. The plans are still in the process and applicant is asking for a special permit
allowing the project, when completed, to maintain the existing ground over of 2110 sq.
feet on the condition that any new construction comply with all applicable set -backs.

Limited Use General 3 ("LUG -3")
DECISION:
Certificate of Title No. 27324
Land Court Plan No. 14732-E
Lot 16
1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals, held on Thursday, August 8,
2019, and September 12, 2019 at 1:00 P.M., at 4 Fairgrounds Road, Nantucket, Massachusetts,
the Board made the following decision on the application of RICHARD J. GLIDDEN,
TRUSTEE, 4 SHAWKEMO ROAD REALTY TRUST, in care of Glidden & Glidden, PC,
37 Centre Street, Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554, File No. 22-19.
2. Applicant is seeking Special Permit relief pursuant to Zoning By-law Section 139-33.A.(4) to
remove and reconstruct any or all of the pre-existing nonconforming structures or any portion
thereof in excess of the permitted 3% ground cover ratio. Specifically, Applicant proposes to
demolish all or portions of existing structures to allow for new construction and/or additions
with the ability to retain the pre-existing nonconforming ground cover of 2,110 square feet,
or a ground cover ratio of up to 5.13%. As a result of a zoning change from LUG -1 to LUG -
3, the Locus became pre-existing non -conforming as to groundcover. The new construction
will be conforming as to all setback requirements. The Locus is improved with a dwelling
and garage which are also pre-existing nonconforming as to setbacks. The Locus is situated
at 4 Shawkemo Road, is shown on Tax Assessor's Map 43 as Parcel 91.1, and as Lot 16 upon
Land Court Plan 14732-E. Evidence of owner's title is registered on Certificate of Title No.
27324 at the Nantucket County District of the Land Court. The site is zoned Limited Use
General 3 (LUG -3).
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. Except for presentation by the
applicant's representative, there was neither support nor opposition presented at the public
hearing.
4. Attorney Richard Glidden, representing the Applicant, explained that the Applicant is
requesting Special Permit relief pursuant to By-law Section 139-33.A(4) which reads:
0j
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:
La)- Such special permit shall have been issued prior to the removal of the preexisting
nonconforming structure(s), or any portion(s) thereof;
L (Reserved)
a 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.
5. The Locus is currently improved with dwelling having a ground cover of 1,870 sq. ft. and a
garage having a ground cover of 240 sq. ft. The total existing ground cover is 2,110± sq. ft.
for a ground cover ratio of 5.13% where 3% (1,233 sq. ft.) is maximum allowed. However,
the lot is an undersized pre-existing nonconforming lot of record, containing 41,100 sq. ft. in
LUG -3 where 120,000 sq. ft. is minimum lot size, and is thus allowed up to 2,000 sq. ft. per
Section 139-33.E(1)(b). The Locus is pre-existing nonconforming as to front and side yard
setbacks with both the house and garage both sited within the thirty-five (35) foot front yard
and ten (10) foot side yard setbacks. The original dwelling may have been constructed prior
to 1972 and the garage was built circa 1975. Subsequent additions to the dwelling include a
1981 deck and a 1986 addition, both on the northeast elevation.
6. The Locus was in existence as of November 15, 1990, at which time it was located in the
LUG -1 zoning district. Due to a subsequent zoning change passed at the 1990 Special town
Meeting, the LUG -3 zoning requirements became applicable to lots of record in this area. As
set forth in the Editor's note to By-law Section 139-16, until January 1, 2000, the Locus had
the benefit of Limited Use General One ("LUG -l") intensity regulations and was allowed
ground cover ratio of 7% or, in this case, roughly 2,877 square feet.
7. At the initial public hearing on August 8t', Attorney Glidden requested approval to remove
and reconstruct any or all of the pre-existing nonconforming structures or any portion thereof
within the side and front yard setbacks and in excess of the permitted 3% ground cover ratio,
and more specifically, to allow for new construction and/or additions with the ability to retain
the pre-existing nonconforming ground cover of 2,110 sq. ft. with no change to the pre-
existing nonconforming setback distances. The Board noted that the Applicant was reserving
the possibility of leaving some of the existing structure in place, thus resulting in continued
encroachment within the front and side yard setbacks and therefore the request for relief had
to be amended to include the waiver from setback requirements, to the extent necessary, in
order to comply with Section 139-33.A(4). At the continued hearing on September 12�',
Attorney Glidden informed the Board that the design program had changed such that all
3
existing structures will be removed and/or demolished and all new construction will conform
to all applicable front, rear, and side yard setback requirements of the By-law, and there will
be no increase in ground cover or other zoning nonconformity.
8. Therefore, after a discussion with the Applicant's counsel, the Board finds that such a Special
Permit may be granted to allow demolition of the existing structures and construction of new
structures, with the Locus, after such construction, continuing to have total ground cover of
up to about 2,110 sq. ft. or about 5.13%, because all of the reconstructed structures or portions
thereof will conform to all applicable front, rear, and side yard setback requirements of the
By-law, and there will be no increase in ground cover or other zoning nonconformity.
9. Accordingly, by a UNANIMOUS vote of the sitting Board, the Zoning Board of Appeals
made the finding that the proposed demolition of the existing structures and the construction
of new structures, with the Locus, after such construction, continuing to have total ground
cover of up to about 2,110 square feet or about 5.13%, and with all of the structures
conforming to all applicable front, rear, and side yard setback requirements of the By-law,
and no increase in ground cover or other zoning nonconformity, will not be substantially more
detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing nonconformities and granted the requested
relief by Special Permit.
