The Kerr property is ?resently divided between zoning districts Residential-Commercial on v.lashington Street and pesidential-l abutting the Union Street pro- perties to the rear, the majority of the property being Residential-Commercial. 2. Hashington Street is primarily cOJTlIT1ercial lD nature and Union Street is primarily residential. 3. The zonina line in this area creates an artificial division of the Kerr property, having no logical basis and the property should rationally be zoned as one entity. 4. The general position of the Board is that land divided by zoning districts upon the basis of lot lines as distinguished from linear setback lines, is entitled to be governed by the least restrictive district and in this case, Residential-Commercial. 5. The Kerr property at 41-43 Washington Lot A-Ion Land Court Plan No. 10710-B, is zoned Residential-Commercial in its ertirety~ unanimous ~~~I:L~~'-~ \"L\~\. h~ BOARD OF APPEALS c~~~~~ ._~~~ ~ Street, vote. fWlfft~7 rpd-,~. ~g-L'r~. · "1 J ,- ~ ~ ~ - " ~ I V r. ~~ {f .~ \. \ A 1981-6663NOH.....-m.t .IlIl3>LLS H.LXlS H"'HON 81 S'JI.lI\OH '0 SIA va 'SSYJ'i 'aHO.d:alilH .lI\liIN .lI\Y'l:LV SAl!INHo.t:LV aOWIaw '1? aHVTlilH '.L.LOos:llHc:I (" (9 ~' BOARD OF APPEALS Nantucket, Massachusetts A regular meeting of the Board of Appeals was held November 28, 1978. Present were members Mooney, Bartsch, and Cahoon. Mr. M_ooney announced the resignation of Wayne F. Holmes, Esquire, from the Board of Appeals, and called for the election of a new chairman. On motion of Mrs. Bartsch, Robert F. Mooney, Esquire, was elected Chairman-of the Board of Appeals. In the matter of the petition of Peter Kerr (029-78), Attorney Robert E. Campbell appeared for the petitioner, seeking a determination that the Kerr property on Washington Street should be classified Residential-Commercial in its entirety, ,the property being apparently divided on the zoning map, and stat~the property should be entitled to the least restrictive zoning classification. Attorney Michael Driscoll also spoke in favor of the petition, stating the zoning lines had no regard to reality and should have followed the back lot lines of the Union Street properties in dividing the area. It was noted that Washington Street is substantially commercial in nature. Mrs. Juliet Taylor questioned if the Town Meeting had considered the question. There was no opposition, no correspondence, and no other speakers. The Board took the petition under advisement. In the matter of the petition of Mary Howard (030-78) requesting a Special Permit to expand a non-conforming use of property at 4 Lyons Street, Attorney Richard Glidden appeared for the petitioner and stated the building presently contained three apartments. The petitioner wishes to expand the use and install an additional small apartment in the cellar. The petitioner has owned the property since 1954, has retired to Nantucket, and occupies one apartment for her personal use. The apartment con- struction will not change the exterior of the house except for the addition of one rear door. Speaking in favor of the petition were Mrs. Howard, Mrs. Mary Phillips, Mrs. Eunice Haskell, and Ms. Martha Walters. One letter in favor was received from Mrs. Maxine Shaw. No speakers were heard in opposition, and one letter of objection was received from Mr. and Mrs. Edward T. Johnson and read into the record. The Board took the petition under advisement.
