NOTICE
A Public Hearing of the NANTUCKET ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS will be held at
1 :00 P .M., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 2006 in the Conference Room, at ~
FAIRGROUNDS ROAD4 Nantucket, Massachusetts, with a vehicular entrance from
Old South Road and a pedestrian entrance from the front of the former Nantucket Electric
Company building, on the Application of the following:
MONCURECHATnEL~TAYLOR
BOARD OF APPEALS FILE NO. 079-06
Applicant is seeking a MODIFICATION of the VARIANCE, granted in the
Decision in BOA File No. 020-05 (that superseded Special Permit relief granted in the
Decision in BOA File No. 010-02), pursuant to Nantucket Zoning By-law Section 139-
16A (Intensity Regulations - setback). Relief was granted to validate the siting of the
existing multi-use structure that is currently sited as close as about 3.7 feet from the
northerly side yard lot line and to alter the use of the structure from office and second
floor apartment to use as a single-family dwelling unit (should the Applicant have chosen
to do so) and to ratify the change of use granted in the Decision in BOA File No. 010-02.
Applicant is now before the Board seeking a modification to construct an addition onto
the existing structure and convert the expanded structure into a duplex with a total of
seven bedrooms on site. The office use would be eliminated as a result. Applicant also
seeks relief by SPECIAL PERMIT under Nantucket Zoning By-law Section 139-18
(parking requirements) waiving one of the five required parking spaces. Four conforming
parking spaces would be provided on site in a stacked manner and the fifth space would
be provided inside the structure and would not meet By-law requirements for a valid
space. Other than the nonconformity noted above, the Locus is conforming in all respects
except as to frontage with the Lot having a frontage along Washington Street Extension
of about 24.29 feet, in a district that requires a minimum frontage of 40 feet.
The Premises is located at 91 WASHINGTON STREET EXTENSION,
Assessor's Map 55.1.4, Parcel 5, Plan Book 16, Page 127, Lot 7. The property is zoned
Residential-Commercial.

RC

Plan Book 16, Page 127, Lot 7
Deed Ref. 745/120
At a public hearing ofthe Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals, open on Friday, February
11,2005, in the Conference Room, in the Town Annex Building, 37 Washington Street,
Nantucket, Massachusetts, the Board made the following Decision on the Application of
MONCURE CHATFIELD-TAYLOR, c/o Vaughan, Dale and Hunter, P.C., Whaler's Lane,
P.O. Box 659, Nantucket, MA 02554, on Board of Appeals File No. 020-05:
1. Applicant is seeking relief by VARIANCE under Nantucket Zoning By-law
Section 139-16A (Intensity Regulations - setback) to validate the siting of an existing multi-use
structure that is sited as close as about 3.7 feet from the northerly side yard lot line. Applicant
had received Special Permit relief in the Decision in BOA File No. 010-02 that allowed changes
of use and expansion of the structure. However, upon further inspection the siting ofthe structure
needed to be validated by a grant of Variance relief as the structure was sited on the Locus in
1982-1983 when side yard setback requirements were five feet and not the previously allowed
three feet. Special Permit relief was not properly available in 2002 due to the noncomplying
nature of the structure. However, the siting is arguably protected under the curative statutes of
MGL Ch. 40A, Section 7 from enforcement action. Applicant is now before the Board to seek
the proper relief to validate the current siting of the structure within the required five-foot side
yard setback area. In separate action, as part of a grant of relief, the Applicant is asking to be able
to alter the use ofthe structure from use as an office and second floor apartment to use as a
single-family dwelling unit and to ratifY the change of use granted in the previous Decision.
Other than the nonconformity noted above, the Locus is conforming in all respects except as to
frontage with the Lot having a frontage along Washington Street Extension of about 24.29 feet,
in a district that requires a minimum frontage of 40 feet. The Premises is located at 91
WASHINGTON STREET EXTENSION, Assessor's Map 55.1.4, Parcel 5, Plan Book 16,
Page 127, Lot 7. The property is zoned Residential-Commercial.
2. 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, as the matter did not present any issues of planning concern. Except for the
presentation by the applicant through its representative, there was no support or opposition
presented at the public hearing.
3. Applicant, through counsel, stated that the Board of Appeals had granted special
permit relief in 2002 in the Decision in BOA File No. 010-02. At the time it was thought that the
structure in question upon the Locus was validly grandfathered as to the siting, being sited as
close as about 3.7 feet from the northerly side yard lot line in a district that requires a side yard
setback of five feet. The lot and structure was conforming in all other respects except for
frontage requirements. Applicant had been before the Board to change the use on the first floor
from an art gallery to a single office use with about 1028 square feet of space. The second floor
apartment would be maintained. There was no change in ground cover proposed at the time and
none is proposed here. In any case, the existing ground cover ratio was about 19%, well below
the maximum ground cover ratio allowed of 50% for the conforming lot with about 5,734 square
feet of lot area. Applicant was allowed to remove and replace the stoop and stairs on the
northerly side of the structure that provided access to the second floor apartment without coming
any closer to that side yard setback area than the existing stoop/stairs with that side of the
structure being sited as close as about 3.7 feet. A large portion of the new stoop/stairs would be
sited outside ofthe required five-foot side yard setback area. Applicant stated that office use was
allowed as a matter or right in this district without relief from this Board. However, the structure
was sited within the setback area and required Board approval to change the use from one
allowed use to the other. Applicant also represented at the time that the change from
retail/gallery to office use would reduce the intensity of use under the Zoning By-law and reduce
the required parking and eliminate the need for a loading zone. Applicant provided the required
six on-site parking spaces per Exhibit A that was attached to the previous Decision and that
would not change.
Applicant was now before the Board seeking variance relief to validate the siting
of the structure and ratify the previous alterations to the structure and use. In 2002 it was thought
that the structure had been moved from across the street to the present site prior to the change in
the Zoning By-law that increased the side yard setback requirement from three feet to five feet.
In fact, during the process of applying to the Board for separate relief in the fall of2004, it was
found that the structure had been moved to the Locus in 1982 and not prior to 1979 when the By-
law changed, thus the siting of the structure could not then be considered pre-existing
nonconforming under the Zoning By-law but was then noncomplying with no zoning protection.
Therefore, the special permit relief previously granted was not based on sustainable grounds of
grandfathering. Applicant was now seeking to validate the structure in its present location to
eliminate the problem. Applicant also stated that the structure was protected from enforcement
action as it had existed for more than six years, having been moved with a validly issued building
permit, and certainly more than ten years, as required under MGL c. 40A, Section 7.
4. Therefore, based upon the foregoing, the Board of Appeals the Board finds that
owing to circumstances relating to shape of the lot and structure, and especially affecting this lot
and structure, and not affecting generally the zoning district in which it is located, a literal
enforcement of the provisions ofthis chapter would involve substantial hardship, financial and
otherwise, and the desirable relief 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-law. The Board also finds that the structure is protected from enforcement due to the lapse of
over six years under the curative provisions ofMGL Ch. 40A, Section 7. The Board also finds
that validating the relief that was granted in the Decision in BOA File No. 010-02 by inclusion in
this grant of variance reliefto allow the change of use of the structure from first floor
retail/gallery use to first floor office use with a separate apartment on the second floor, and the
reconstruction/expansion of the exterior stoop/stairs to provide adequate access into the building
leading to the second floor apartment and sited within the northerly side yard setback area but no
closer to that lot line than the existing structure, would be appropriate. The Board also reaffirms
the findings made in the previous Decision in BOA File No. 010-02.
5. Accordingly, by a UNANIMOUS vote, the Board GRANTS the requested
VARIANCE relief under Nantucket Zoning By-law Section 139-16A validating the siting ofthe
existing single-family dwelling, the conversion of the use of the structure to office use on the
fIrst floor with an apartment on the second floor, and the previous alteration of the stoop/stairs
that did not come any closer to the side yard lot line than previously sited subject to the
following conditions:
(a) The exterior stoop/stairs, parking layout and siting of the structure shall be in
substantial conformance with the "Plot Plan", done by Stephen J. Sullivan, of
Nantucket Surveyors, Inc., dated January 7,2002, as marked by the Applicant, a
reduced copy of which is attached hereto and marked as Exhibit A;
(b) There shall be only one commercial office on the first floor of the structure and no
change in the commercial use is allowed without further relief from this Board; and
(c) There shall be no further expansion or alteration of the structure without further relief
from this Board.
6. The Board also reaffirms the previous approval of the site plan, Exhibit A, under
Section 139-23, by unanimous vote.

At a Public Hearing of the ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS held at 1 :00 P.M.,
Friday, February 8,2002, in the Conference Room at the Town Building Annex, 37
Washington Street, Nantucket, Massachusetts, on the Application of MARK J.
MORMAR and SAMARA FARBER MORMAR, OWNER, of 167 Route 301, Cold Spring,
New York. 10516, and for MONCURE CHATFIELD-TAYLOR, CONTRACT
PURCHASER, of 43 Pine Street, Nantucket, MA 02554, Board of Appeals File No. 010-
02, the Board made the following Decision:
1. Applicants are seeking relief by SPECIAL PERMIT under Nantucket Zoning By-
Law Section139-33A (alteration of a pre-existing nonconforming structure/use).
Applicants propose to convert the first floor of an existing two-story mixed use structure,
by converting about 1028 square feet of first floor space from use as a gallery to use as
one (1) office. In addition, Applicant is proposing to construct an exterior stoop/stairs to
provide adequate access into the building and interior stairs leading to the second-floor
apartment that would be sited within the northerly required five-foot side yard setback
area, but no closer than the existing structure which is sited as close as about 3.7 feet
from that lot line. A majority of the new entrance stoop/stairs would be sited outside of
the required setback area. All required parking would be provided on site, however,
due to the irregular shape of the Locus, relief might be necessary to validate the
parking layout as proposed. The Locus is nonconforming as to parking with the gallery
use; and frontage, with the Lot having about 24.29 feet of frontage along Washington
Street Extension in a district that requires a minimum frontage of 40 feet.
The Premises is located at 91 WASHINGTON STREET EXTENSION,
Assessor's Map 55.1.4, Parcel 5, Plan Book 16, Page 127, Lot 7. The property is
zoned Residential-Commercial.
2. The Decision is based upon the Application and materials submitted therewith,
and the testimony and evidence introduced at the hearing. There was no
recommendatiqn from the Planning Board as the Board determined that the matter was
not a~)!!J}nt9,9,.~oncern. There were no letters on file.
"... f\" ru....' .
~/"<>, .:;~lipnCc1~t (Chatfield-Taylor), through his attorney, explained that he is the
JCQl')fr~dr.>urchaser of th~<subject property. The Applicant intends to eliminate the
} ex.rstjQ9 'retaillga..II~:~;co".'mercial use on .the .first f100~ a.nd convert about 1028 square
.~~~t"of space to oUseas hiS office and maintain the eXisting second-floor apartment for

the removal of the ramp on the front of the building. He intends to re-build the existing
dilapidated exterior stairs leading to the door at the northeast corner of the building and
build a new set of interior stairs adjacent to the northerly wall of the existing building.
The new stoop/stairs would be situated substantially on the same footprint as the
existing stairs, and within the required five-foot side yard setback area but no closer to
than the existing building which is sited as close as 3.7 feet from the northerly lot line.
A majority of the stoop/stairs would be located outside of the required side yard setback
area. Applicant pointed out that office and apartment uses are allowed as a matter of
right in this zone and would have no negative impact on the character of the
neighborhood, which is comprised of residential and commercial uses. If the structure
had been located outside of the required setback area, no relief from this Board would
have been necessary. Applicant also represents that the change in retail/gallery use to
office use would be a reduction of the intensity of use and would actually require less
parking spaces, and no loading zone. Applicant would provide the required six
conforming on-site parking spaces as delineated on the site plan drawn by Nantucket
Surveyors, Inc., dated January 7, 2002, which was submitted as part of the Application,
marked as Exhibit A and attached hereto. The Locus is conforming as to lot size, all
other setback requirements and ground cover.
4. Therefore, after consideration of all the information presented to the Board, the
Board finds that the proposed change of use on the first floor from retail/gallery to office
is an allowed use in this district as a matter of right, and clearly would not derogate
from the spirit or intent of the Zoning By-Law nor be substantially more detrimental to
the neighborhood than the existing use/structure. The Board also finds that said
change would constitute a lessening of the intensity of use and the commercial use
would be appropriate, as the area is comprised of both commercial and residential
properties. The continuation of the use of the second floor as a residential apartment is
an allowed use in this district as a matter of right and clearly would not derogate from
the spirit or intent of the Zoning By-Law. Further, the Board finds that the re-building
of the exterior stairs and construction of interior stairs to meet building code
requirements, within the northerly side yard setback area, without coming any closer to
that side yard lot line than the existing structure, would not be substantially more
detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing structure/use, and would not result in
any significant increase in the non-conforming nature of the building. In fact,
replacement of the existing stairs would improve the access to the building. As to
parking, the Board finds that the parking plan provides the required number of spaces
for proposed uses, h9wever, due to the irregular shape of this lot, relief from strict
compliance with design criteria of parking spaces is warranted, and a grant of relief to
validatelb~,p~rking plan as proposed would be in harmony with the general purposes
and in.te.N 9~~,he Zoning By-Law and not contrary to sound traffic concerns,
\ .
Q
P.::"; ... Accordingly, by UNANIMOUS vote, the BOARD GRANTS THE SPECIAL
::'R~R~!T under Nantucket Zoning By-Law Section139-33A, allowing the conversion of
. :~ ap9ut"1 02~ square-feet of first-floor space from gallery use to one office, with the
. cortinued use of the second floor as a residential apartment, and further allows the
cohs:truction of interior and exterior stairs within the northerly five-foot side yard

setback area without coming any closer to that lot line than the existing structure; and

shown on Exhibit A;
