Addendum "A"
Applicant, as contract purchaser, seeks a variance from side-line setback requirements
contained in Section 16-A Intensity of Regulations of the Zoning By-laws. 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.

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.
