Applicant wishes to construct a second floor deck approximately 11' x 16' on the southerly side of the house, together with spiral staircase leading down to ground floor landing. The deck will not increase ground cover but will extend approximately nine (9) feet into the required twenty (20) foot side-line setback. This is a unique situation, as detailed in Board of Appeals Cases No., 084-05 and 037-08. For all intents and purposes, locus is a pre-existing lot of record and as such would be subject to a ten (10) foot side-line setback requirement. In fact, the house and the 2006 addition were built and sited on the assumption that the lot was governed by the ten (10) foot requirement. Because of a technicality, the lot lost its grandfathered status and had to be validated as a buildable lot via variance relief in Board of Appeals Case No. 084-05. The proposed second floor deck would fit in architecturally and would not be any closer to the southerly lot line than the existing covered porch which it would abut. ~ ''''''; ~q ~ ~~ ~ ~~~ ~ G b ~ ~ ~ ~~t11 F\. ~ N ~.J ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ hj ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ Q ~ ~ ~ C ~~~ s:;~~ ;- ~ = ~ I~ ~-4.J ~l \ff) ~Il ~ ~ t5 ~ ~ ~ o t1i III o ;: ~ ... w / ; I~ t: ~ m , -" 7ii (J\ -; -" r a a 7\l ~ r > Z IIJ B ~ ~ I' ) I~ EI I~ I~ I~ I / EI / --=------ I Jffw~\'F'~il1%i{i\,i+BAi< '~fi:W::i~:p r ~ [T1 " a z G -" r a a 7\l ~ r > Z , "I II;j I;jl --, I~ I~ II;j I;jl [T1 > (J\ -; [T1 r [T1 -< > -; 5 z mi /II OU<~ fUD pOL p)5 R.

NANTUCKET ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS 2 Fairgrounds Road Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 137 Pol pis Road Assessor's Map 44, Parcel 7.1 Land Court Plan 10999- F Certificate of Title Nos. 22171,22238 Limited Use General-3 DECISION: 1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals on Thursday, May 14, 2009, at 1:00 P.M., at 2 Fairgrounds Road, Nantucket, Massachusetts, the Board made the following Decision on the Application in Zoning Board of Appeals File No. 019-09 of Donna M. Bengloff, Trustee of Nest Egg Nominee Trust, 350 Boylston Street, Unit 305, Boston, MA 02459. 2. Applicant is requesting a Variance pursuant to Nantucket Zoning Bylaw Section 139-32 (variances) from the intensity regulations found in Nantucket Zoning Bylaw Section 139-16 (intensity regulations). Specifically, the Applicant is proposing to construct a second floor deck on the southerly side of the house. The deck will not increase ground cover; but, will extend approximately nine (9) feet into the required twenty (20) foot rear yard setback. In the alternative, the Applicant is requesting Special Permit relief pursuant to Nantucket Zoning Bylaw Section 139-33.A.(4) (alteration of preexisting, nonconforming structure) to allow the proposed construction. The site is located at 137 Polpis Road, is shown on Nantucket Tax Assessor's Map 44 as Parcel 7.1., is shown on Land Court Plan 10999-F, and is registered at the Nantucket County Registry of Deeds as Certificate of Title No. 22171. The site is zoned Limited Use General - 3. 3. Our Decision is based upon the Application and accompanying materials, representations and testimony received at our public hearing. The Planning Board made no recommendation finding that the Application did not present any issues of planning concern. One of the abutters was represented by counsel and said counsel spoke against the relief requested in the Application. 4. The Applicants were represented by counsel. Counsel for the Applicants stated that the Applicants are the contract purchasers and they wish to construct a second floor deck on the southerly side of the house, together with a spiral staircase leading down to the ground floor landing. The deck will not increase ground cover; but, will extend approximately nine (9) feet into the required twenty (20) foot setback. Counsel for the Applicants informed the Board that this is a unique situation, as this property has been before the Board twice in the last four years (ZBA File Nos. 084-05 and 037-08). Essentially, the locus is a preexisting lot of record and would be subject to a ten (10) foot side setback. In fact, the house and the addition in 2006 were built and sited under this assumption. Because of a technicality, the lot lost its grandfathered status and had to be validated as a buildable lot via variance relief in Board of Appeals File No. 084- 05. The proposed addition would not be any closer to the southerly lot line than the existing covered porch which it would abut. 5. Counsel for the abutter nearest to the addition spoke against the application as the addition will be overlooking their pool and property. Counsel for the abutter also expressed concern that this property is the subject of multiple Zoning Board of Appeals applications. The Board members echoed these sentiments and questioned why this addition was necessary given the history of this locus and the intensity regulations the locus is subject to. 5. Therefore, the Board finds that given the history of the locus and the prior relief granted, Variance relief is not appropriate as specifically owing to circumstances relating to the soil conditions, shape or topography of such land or structures and especially affecting such land or structures but not affecting generally the zoning district in which it is located, a literal enforcement of the provisions of this chapter would not involve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioner or appellant, and the desirable relief may not be granted without substantial detriment to the public good. 6. Accordingly, by a motion made and duly seconded to GRANT the requested relief by VARIANCE pursuant to Nantucket Zoning Bylaw Section 139-32 from the requirements in Nantucket Zoning Bylaw Section 139-16 to extend a second story deck approximately nine (9) feet into the required twenty (20) foot rear yard setback, there were two (2) votes in favor and three (3) opposed (Koseatac, Botticelli, Poor opposed). Therefore, the requested relief is denied. SIGNATURE PAGE TO FOLLOW 2 Dated: Ju I~ f ,2009 COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS J tA "-1 (j Nantucket, ss.
