NANTUCKET ZONING BOAIm OF APPEALS 1 East Chestnut Street Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Assessor's Map 67, Parcel 313 (part) 1 Eli Place Residential-10 Land Court Plan 34507-4 Lot 108 Cert. of Title No. 21969 DECISION: 1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals, on Friday, March 10, 2006, at 12:00 P.M., in the Conference Room, in the Town Annex Building, 37 Washington Street, Nantucket, Massachusetts, the Board made the following decision on the application of CHRISTINE MALLIA, c/o Reade, Gullicksen, Hanley & Gifford, LLP, Post Office Box 2669, Nantucket, Massachusetts 02584, File No. 027-06: 2. The Applicant is seeking relief by SPECIAL PERMIT under Nantucket Zoning By-law ~139-16.C(1), to reduce the required side/rear yard setback from ten feet to about 9.5 feet, in order to validate the siting of a new single-family dwelling. The lot is otherwise conforming in all respects to the dimensional requirements of the Zoning By-law. The locus is situated at 1 ELI PLACE, (formerly a portion of 7 Brinda Lane), Assessor's Map 67, Parcel 313 (part), is shown on Land Court Plan 34507-4 as Lot 108, and is situated in a Residential-10 zoning district. 3. Our decision is based upon the application and accompanying materials, and representations and testimony recei ved at our public hearing. There was no Planning Board recommendation, on the basis that no matter of planning concern was presented. Except for the presentation by the Applicant's representative, there was no support or opposition presented at the public hearing. 4. As presented by the Applicant's counsel, the Applicant has constructed a new single-family dwelling upon her conforming lot. When she had an as-built site plan prepared by Blackwell & Associates, dated January 27, 2006 (a reduced copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A), the plan revealed that one corner of the structure (being a retaining wall and railing surrounding the exterior access to the basement of the dwelling) was inadvertently sited about 9.5 feet from the southwesterly side/rear yard lot line. The locus is sited in the Residential- 10 zoning district, in which the required side/rear yard setback under Zoning By-law ~139-16.A is ten feet; however, ~l39-16.C(1) specifically allows the Board of Appeals, as special permit 1 granting authority, to reduce the required side and rear yard setbacks in this district to as little as five feet, by special permit. No specific findings are required for the granting of a special permit under this provision, so the general special permit standard that the granting of relief would be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning By-law is applicable. 5. The Applicant's counsel related that he had spoken directly with Jeffrey Blackwell, the surveyor who prepared the Exhibit A plan, and with the general contractor for the construction of the dwelling. Per these conversations, he reported that Blackwell & Associates, Inc., had placed stakes for the excavation of the foundation, but had not been requested to pin the location of the footings after the excavation had been done. Rather, as reported by counsel, the contractor stated that he had sited the footings himself, with reference to markings that he believed to be accurate survey delineations of the property lines. The unfortunate result was that the corner of the dwelling was sited about 9.5 feet from the property line, as stated above. Counsel reported that the contractor assumed all responsibility for this error. Therefore, since the Zoning By- law expressly allows for special permit relief to reduce the setback from ten feet to five feet, the Applicant brought the present application for relief under this provision. 6. On the basis of these facts and representations, the Board of Appeals considered that the Applicant had proceeded in good faith in the construction of her dwelling; that the intrusion into the setback area, of about six inches at one corner, with the majority of the structure located outside the required setback area, was de minimis; and that there would be no benefit to be achieved by the correction of the intrusion, particularly since no opposition was received from the abutter to the southwest. Therefore, by UNANIMOUS vote, the Board of Appeals made the finding that the requested relief would be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning By-law, and by the same UNANIMOUS vote, GRANTED relief by SPECIAL PERMIT under Nantucket Zoning By-law ~139-16.C(1), to reduce the southwesterly side/rear yard setback applicable to the locus to about 9.5 feet to validate the siting of the existing single- family dwelling, subject to the following conditions: (a) This relief is limited to the siting of the existing dwelling as shown upon the Exhibit A plan; and (b) No further building shall be performed within the side and rear yard setbacks of ten feet without further relief from this Board. 2 (BOA File No. 027-06) Dated: March 2-3 -' 2006 F:\WpM\Mallia\ZBA\ZBA DEe 027-06.doc 3 ~ '" ~~~~M ~~~~~ ~ ~t;'t;'t.. c:: @~~g~ ~ ~ ~8 . .. i~ ~dl~ S 9~~~B ~~ ~~>'ii\O ill U~~~ :::I2~~CI /<~~ // 'V;f/ // 4lfrt<f'/ /~/,,~~"Y' /// #J:P> // ~ -tY/ / a1;--<V//~' ~y/ ')0' // ::!: ~ ~ '" - I ~~~~~ o -' <: ~C) <:i=::: :::J'-:"C V)t( /' / C) / Lr) <:::i ~~i ~ L...
