TOWN OF NANTUCKET•
{ NANTUCKET, MASSACHUSETTS 02554
DECISION:
The BOARD OF APPEALS, at a Public Hearing held on FRIDAY, APRIL
29, 1988 at 1:30 p.m. in the Town and County Building, Nantucket, made
the following decision upon the Application of WILLIAM IF. BURDICK, JR.
AND ALBERTA M. BURDICK (049-88) address 26 Appleton Road, Nantucket,
MA 02554.
1. Applicants seek a VARIANCE from the 20,000 SF minimum lot also
requirement of Zoning By -Lav SECTION 139-16A to allow redivision of their
3 commonly owned lots into new Lots 1 and 2 respectivelyjof 17,496 SP
and 16,277 SF, with the existing single-family dwelling on Lot 1 and a
new single-family dwelling buildable on Lot 2. The premises are a corner
lot ■t 26 APPLETON ROAD (Lot 1), and 4 THURSTON'S VAT (Lot 2). and
zoned RESIDENTIAL -2.
f
2. The present 3 lots are, respectively:
- Assessor's Parcel 66-029 (Lot 28, Plan Book 18, Page 127.
-- { of about I5,M SP)
- Assessor's Parcel 66-030 (Lot 9, Plan Book 17, Pafe 70 of
- Assessor's Parcel 66-121 (Lot 1A, Flom Pile a0, of 2174
SF in a thin triangular shape),
now treated as one lot for zoning purposes.
3. Our findings are based upon the record in this and prior
Application 041-85, including "sketch plan of land" dated 4/8/88 (our
Exhibit "A") showing new Lots 1 and 2. viewing and plans. neighbors'
petition,representatIon* and testimony received at our hearing of 4/29/88.
n
. en 301 1st 192
(049-88) -2-
4. Applicants' Lots 9 and 28 are shown on a plan endorsed by the
Plaasing Board 'approval mot required" 6/17/74 with respective 100 -toot
southerly lot lines confronting property of the Thurstons. Next of
record is the Thurston*' subdivision endorsed by the Planning Board
4/20/76 and locating then -new Thurston's Way running past the Burdick
Lots 28 and'9 but with Lot IA blocking then from having any (southerly)
frontage on Thurston's Way. Our record does not show why Applicants'
frontage was deliberately blocked or why Applicants' counsel, now deceased,
had then acquire Lot 28 with the same joint ownership as Lot 9. We are
told that Donald Visco who endorsed the plans as a member of the Planning
Board. was jhe road contractor who put in Thurston's Way and later, as
owner of Lot IA, sold it to Applicants. Visco is shown as a joint owner
of Lot IA as early as 1981, and the joint developer on an AMR plan endor-
sed by the Planning Board 6/12/78, in lieu of the Thurston'*.
5. In any event. having, slace our adverse decision in 041-85,
acquired Lot IA from Visco, Applicants now have adequate frontage on
Thurston's Way for new Lot 2. Normally, we would still not be able proper-
ly to validate each of new Lots 1 and 2 as buildable for lack of 20,000
SP. Unusual circumstances, however, here support variance relief.
Specifically, were relief denied and the matter fully litigated, equities
favorable to Applicants involving blocked frontage for Lot 28 and Town
official involvement might be adduced. The 5/77 upzoning of Applicants'
Lots to R-2 also raises questions in that toning districts are typically
bounded by streets. not the Burdicks' Lot 28 back proporty line, again
with involvement of Planning Board officials. Lots just across that back
lot line are buildable with only 5,000 SF. Lots 9 and 28 (and new Lots
1 and 2) are comparable in size to others on the same side of Thurston's _
Way and larger than those on the other side. Lot 28 is odd only in
not being built upon.
6. Applicants' neighbors are clearly supportive of relief. However.
in view of the unfavorable recommendation of the Planning Board, we
condition relief upon barring a secondary dwelling on either of Lots
1 and 2. We understand this is acceptable to Applicants. Presumably they

will need a sewer entry permit to build on new Lot 2. since it lacks
40,000 SF for a septic system.
7. With the foregoing condition, we are able to find that the
requested lot size variance relief for new Lots 1 and 2 may be granted
without substantial detriment to the public good and without nullifying
or substantially derogating from the intent or purpose of the Zoning
By -Lay. We find the r%uisite hardship involved. in the unusual circum-
stances relating to lot shape in the above-described interrelationship
of Lot lA and Lots 28 and 9.
8. Accordingly, by UNANIMOUS vote. this Board GRANTS to Applicants
the requested VARIANCE from the minimum lot site requirements of SECTION
139-16A to allow redivision of the premises into new buildable Lots 1 an
2 in substantial conformity with Exhibit "A" so tivt a single-family
dwelling may be built upon Lot 2 but with the condition that no secondary
dwelling shall be built upon either Lot 1 or Lot 2.

BOARD OF APPEALS
TOWN OF NANTUCKET
NANTUCKET, MASSACHUSETTS 02554
Decision:
The Nantucket Board of Appeals, acting at a public hearing
held on Friday, July 13, 1990, at 1:00 P.M., at the Town and
County Building, Nantucket, made the following Decision upon the
Application of DKNNIS B. SULLIVAN and DIANE B. SULLIVAN (040-90):
1. This is an appeal under Nantucket Zoning By-law Section
139-31 from a decision by the Building Commissioner dated April
30, 1990, denying the applicants a building permit for
construction of a single-family dwelling. In the alternative,
the applicants request relief by variance from the minimum lot
size requirement under Section 139-16.A, renewing a variance
granted by us in Case No. 049-88. The subject property (the
'Locus') is situated at 26 APPLETON ROAD and 4 THURSTON'S NAY
(Assessor's Parcels 66-29 and 30), Lots 1 and 2 on plan recorded
with Nantucket Deeds in Plan Book 24, Page 75, and is zoned as
RESIDENTIAL -2.
2. In our Case No. 049-88, we granted a variance from the
minimum lot size requirement of 20,000 square feet in this
district, in order to enable the former owner of the Locus to
redivide his three adjacent lots (required to be merged together
as one lot to effect zoning compliance) into two separate lots,
one of about 17,496 square feet and containing an existing
dwelling known as 26 Appleton Road, the other of about 16,277
square feet being a vacant lot for building purposes. Under the
peculiar history of the property and with the condition that no
secondary dwelling be constructed on either lot, we made the
necessary findings for variance relief. This decision, voted on
April 29, 1988, was filed with the Town Clerk on May 13, 1988,
and a certified copy was duly recorded on June 17, 1988, with
Nantucket Deeds in Book 301, Page 190.
3. The applicants in 049-88 then proceeded to have a new
plan, showing the lot with the existing dwelling as Lot 1 and the
vacant building lot as Lot 2, prepared and presented to the
Planning Board for endorsement under General Laws, Chapter 41,
Section 81P, as not requiring approval under the Subdivision
Control Lay. This endorsement was made by the Planning Board at
its meeting on June 27, 1988.
8o0KO350na 165
4. The applicants herein purchased Lots 1 and 2, in the
same ownership, from the applicants in 049-88 on July 29, 1988,
by deed recorded with Nantucket Deeds in Book 304, Page 322.
5. When the applicants presented a building permit
application to the Building Commissioner in April, 1990, for the
construction of a single-family dwelling upon Lot 2, the Building
Commissioner denied this application on the basis that the
variance in 049-88 had lapsed, since the rights authorized by it
had not been exercised within one year of the date of grant
thereof. The applicants appealed therefrom, and this appeal is
now before us.
6. The applicants present two arguments to us in support of
their claim that the variance rights under 049-88 were in fact
exercised within one year and therefore did not lapse. First,
they contend that their purchase of the Locus, in which they
claim to have relied upon our grant of variance rights, is itself
an exercise. Second, they assert that the Planning Board's
endorsement of their plan, in reliance upon that variance insofar
as the lots thereby created did not conform to minimum zoning
requirements, itself constitutes an exercise.
7. We are not willing to accept either of the applicants'
arguments in this regard, and consequently sustain the Building
Commissioner's decision, four voting in favor, one voting against
(Leichter). If Lots 1 and 2 had been purchased by different
ownera, we would have found an exercise to have occurred.
However, purchase of both lots in the same ownership is, to us,
consistent with an intent by the new owner that the two lots be
considered as one and still merged. We are aware of no legal
precedent to support the applicants' position that action by the
Planning Board, rather than by an owner, can constitute an
exercise.
8. However, by a majority vote of four in favor and one
(Beale) opposed, we grant a new variance from minimum lot size
requirements of Lots 1 and 2, upon the same condition (no
secondary dwelling on either lot) that was imposed in 049-88,
thus enabling Lot 1 to be held in separate ownership from Lot 2,
with Lot 1 containing one single-family dwelling and with Lot 2
being a building lot for one single-family dwelling. Based upon
the title history described in 049-88, -we find that, owing to
circumstances relating to the shape of the lots and especially
affecting the Locus but not affecting generally the zoning
district in which the Locus is located, a literal enforcement of
the provisions of the by-law would involve substantial hardship,
financial or otherwise, to the applicant, and that desirable
relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public
` BODKIh"FACEIN
good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the
intent or purpose of the by-law.

Consolidated Decision:
At a Public Hearing of the Nantucket Board of Appeals held
at 1:00 P.M. on Friday, November 12, 1993, at the Town and County
Building, Federal and broad Streets, Nantucket, upon the
applications of Dennis Sullivan, Trustee of Turn Realty Trust
(101-93), and Sullivan Pasily Limited Partnership No. 3 (102-93),
each c/o Reade i Alger Professional Corporation, 6 Young's Nay,
Post Office Box 2669, Nantucket, Massachusetts 02564, the board
made the following consolidated Decision:
1. The Applicants are seeking relief by variance under
Nantucket Zoning By -lav Section 139-32.A, from the minimum lot
area requirement of 20,000 square feet in this Residential -2
zoning district under the Intensity Requirements set forth in
Section 16.A, in order to confirm the division of their property,
formerly held in common ownership, into two lots, shown as Lot 1
(Sullivan Family Limited Partnership) and Lot 2 (Dennis Sullivan,
Trustee o! Turn Realty Trust) upon plan recorded with Nantucket
Deeds in Plan Book 24, Page 75. Lot 1 contains 17,496 square
feet: Lot 2 contains 16,271 square feet. Lot 1 is improved with
a dwellin;; Lot 2 is not improved with any structures.
2. On May 13, 1988, variance relief as to lot area was
issued to William F. Burdick, Jr. and Alberta M. Burdick, by this
Board in its decision in Case No. 049-88, for the same relief
herein requested. Dennis B. Sullivan and Diane B. Sullivan
purchased Lots 1 and 2 from the Burdicks by dead dated July 29,
1968, reccrded with Nantucket Deeds in Book 304, Page 322.
3. Thereafter, the Building Department denied a building
permit for the Sullivans on Lot 2, contending that the variance
relief had expired, notwithstanding the Sullivan*, purchase of
both lotr in reliance thereon, because both lots remained in
-1-
. 46
�i
,
aooK0435?ka289
common ownership, and the Sullivans appealed therefrom and, in
the alternative, sought reissuance of the same variance relief
previously granted to the Burdicks, in Case No. 040-90. This
Board denied the appeal but granted relief by variance, issued on
August 2, 1990.
4. Lot 2 was conveyed by the Sullivans to Dennis B.
Sullivan, Trustee of Turn Realty Trust, by deed dated June 3,
1991, recorded with Nantucket Deeds in Book 365, Page 245,
recorded on June 3, 1991, within the one-year statutory period
for the exercise of variance rights. Lots 1 and 2 have not been
in common record ownership thereafter; Lot 2 has been held by
Turn Realty Trust from June 3, 1991, to date, while Lot 1
continued to be in the Sullivan&' record ownership until August
26, 1992, when it was conveyed by the Sullivans to Sullivan
0 family Limited Partnership No. 3 by deed recorded in Book 396,
Page 76.
5. The Applicants now inform us that it is the position of
the Building Department, notwithstanding the conveyance of Lots 1
and 2 into separate record ownership, that the variance rights
issued in 040-90 expired without exercise and that the owner of
Lot 2 is not entitled to obtain a building permit for work
thereon.
6. This Consolidated Decision is based upon the
applications in both Cases Nos. 101-93 and 102-93, the materials
submitted with them, and the evidence presented at the hearing.
There was no comment by abutters or neighbors. The Planning
Board issued a favorable recommendation in both cases.
7. This Board set forth the unusual history of the subject
property in its decision in Case No. 049-88, which is
incorporated by reference. On the basis of this history, a
majority of the Board finds, as it did in 040-90, that, under the
title background set forth therein, owing to circumstances
relating to the shape and configuration of Lots 1 and 2 and
especially affecting these lots, but not affecting generally the
zoning district in which they are situated, a literal enforcement
of the provisions of the Zoning By -lav as to lot area would
involve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the
Applicants, and that desirable relief may be granted without
I substantial detriment to the public good and without nullifying
,...�, or substantially derogating from the intent or purpose of the
By -lay.
8. By separate votes taken in each of the two cases before
us, the Board in each instance voted to grant the requested
variance relief from minimum lot area!' by MAJORITY YOTL, with
four members (Maine, Williams, Laichter and O'Mara) voting in
favor and one (serrens) voting against, subject to the condition
that no swcondacy dwelling &hall be permitted to be constructed

Residential Five (R-5) Plan No. 2006-13
DECISION:
1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals, on Thursday, December
12, 2019, at 1:00 P.M., at 4 Fairgrounds Road, Nantucket, Massachusetts, the Board made the
following decision on the application of DANIEL L. LAWSON and MICHAEL J.
GNOJEWSKI, 59 Walnut Crescent, Montclair,New Jersey 07042, File No.34-19:
2. Applicants are seeking to vacate and rescind prior relief by Variance which was granted
in Decision File No.s 049-88, 040-90, 101-93, & 102-93 pursuant to Zoning By-law Section
139-32 in order to validate the Locus as a marketable residential building lot separate from the
adjacent lot, then known as 4 Thurston's Way. The relief was granted subject to a restriction
prohibiting a secondary dwelling upon the premises. At the time the relief was granted, the
proposed 17,496 square foot lot was undersized for the R-20 zoning district in which it was
situated. With changes in zoning since the various decisions were issued, the lot has become
conforming in all respects, rendering the need for relief obsolete. Locus is situated at 26
Appleton Road Avenue, is shown on Assessor's Map 66 as Parcel 30, and as Lot 30A upon Plan
No. 2006-13. Evidence of owner's title is recorded in Book 1313, Page 36 on file at the
Nantucket County Registry of Deeds. The site is zoned Residential Five(R-5).
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 this matter is not of planning concern. There was no opposition, written or oral, to
the application.
4. Applicants are seeking to vacate and rescind all prior relief appurtenant to and
encumbering the Locus. The change in zoning from Residential Twenty (R-20) to Residential
Commercial Two (RC-2) and subsequently Residential Five (R-5) rendered prior relief obsolete.
The change to R-5 occurred with passage of Article 41 at the 2012 Annual Town Meeting.
Specifically, the request pertains to the following Zoning Board of Appeals Variance Decisions:
• File No. 049-88 (recorded in Bk 301, Pg 190)
• File No. 040-90 (recorded in Bk 350, Pg 163)
• File No.s 101-93 and 102-93 (recorded in Bk 435, Pg 57 and Bk 435, Pg 286)
2
5. The Variance relief is no longer necessary by virtue of the zoning changes, because the
Locus has been rendered compliant as to minimum required lot size, which is of 5,000 sq. ft. in
R-5. Furthermore, a secondary dwelling would be allowed by right under the current zoning
provisions. However, due to the restriction encumbering the original lot to no more than one
single family dwelling unit, the Applicants are asking to have said Variance relief rescinded in
full to allow for the potential to construct a secondary dwelling, should the opportunity arise.
6. The original Variance (File No. 049-88), granted in 1988 to prior owners William F.
Burdick, Jr. and Alberta M. Burdick, permitted re-division of three commonly owned and
merged lots into Lot 1 (26 Appleton Road) and Lot 2 (4 Thurston's Way), shown upon Plan
Book 24, Page 75. The relief was necessary to validate the buildability of Lots 1 and 2 as they
did not comply with the minimum lot size for the R-20 zoning district in which the Locus was
situated in 1988. Lot 1 contained 17,496 sq. ft. and Lot 2 contained 16,271 sq. ft. where
minimum required lot size was 20,000 sq. ft. The relief was granted subject to the condition that
no secondary dwelling be permitted upon either Lot 1 or Lot 2.
7. The second Variance (File No. 040-90), granted in 1990 to Dennis B. Sullivan and Diane
B. Sullivan who had purchased Lots 1 and 2 from prior owners, renewed and confirmed the
previously issued relief from minimum lot size. The relief was needed as the rights authorized in
the 1988 Variance were deemed to have lapsed without having been exercised within the one-
year statutory period by the then Building Commissioner, who consequently denied an
application for a building permit upon vacant Lot 2. The relief maintained the prohibition on a
secondary dwelling upon either Lot 1 or Lot 2.
8. The third and fourth consolidated Variances (File No.s 101-93 and 102-93), granted in
1993 to Dennis B. Sullivan, Trustee of the Turn Realty Trust (owner of Lot 2) and the Sullivan
Family Limited Partnership No. 3 (owner of Lot 1), renewed and confirmed the previously
issued relief from minimum lot size. The same relief was needed as the then Building
Commissioner again denied an application for a building permit upon vacant Lot 2 on the basis
that the 1990 Variance was not exercised within the statutory period. The relief maintained the
prohibition on a secondary dwelling upon either Lot 1 or Lot 2.
9. In 2004, Lot 1 was subdivided into Lots 30 (5,825 sq. ft.), 31 (5,825 sq. ft.), and 32
(5,846 sq. ft.), as shown upon Approval Not Required ("ANR") Plan No. 05-02. In 2005, Lots 30
and 31 were subdivided into Lots 30A (5,008 sq. ft.) and 31A (6,642 sq. ft.), as shown upon
ANR Plan No. 2006-13. At the time of these respective ANR plan submissions to and
endorsements by the Planning Board, the Locus had been rezoned from R-20 to RC-2 where
minimum lot size was 5,000 sq. ft. The Locus that is the subject of this decision is known as 26
Appleton Road and shown as the above-referenced Lot 30A. In February 2012, the current
3
Owners and Applicants acquired title to Lot 30A by virtue of deed recorded in Book 1313, Page
36. As previously stated, the Locus underwent another change in zoning to R-5 as authorized by
the passage of Article 41 at the Annual Town Meeting on March 31, 2012.
10. Therefore, based upon the application materials, unique history of the Locus, and
testimony received at the public hearing, the Board finds that the collective and renewed
Variance relief encumbering the Locus is no longer required and herewith rescinds and vacates
said decision as it pertains to 26 Appleton Road, now shown as Lot 30A upon Plan 2006-13.
Specifically, the lot is currently conforming as to the dimensional provisions of Section 139-16
and, as such, in compliance therewith. No evidence was presented to support the need for
variance relief for waivers from any sections of the Zoning By-law.
