Plan 3092-T, Lot 87A including Parcel 18 L.C. Plan 3092-R, Lot 104 Cert. of Title 18,283 At a Public Hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals held at 1:00 P.M., Friday, June 9, 2000, in the Conference Room, Town Annex Building, 37 Washington Street, Nantucket, Massachusetts, on the Application of SUSAN D. WHITE, of 12 Blanchard Road, Nantucket, MA 02554, Board of Appeals File No. 043-00, the Board made the following Decision: 1. Applicant is seeking relief by SPECIAL PERMIT under Nantucket Zoning Bylaw §139-33A (alteration/expansion of a pre-existing nonconforming use/structure). Applicant proposes to expand an existing about 104 square-foot "bunk house" structure by constructing an addition of about 316 square feet for a total ground cover of the new bunk house to be about 420 square feet. The addition would expand the one (1) small bedroom and add a bathroom without coming any closer to the southwesterly side yard lot line than the existing structure, and would be sited at about eight (8) feet from that lot line. The Locus is nonconforming as to lot size with the Lot containing about 14,668 square feet of area in a district that requires a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet; as to side yard setback with the single-family dwelling being sited at about 3.4 feet at its closest point from the westerly side yard lot line and with the bunk house being sited at about 2.67 feet at its closest point from the southwesterly side yard lot line in a district that requires a minimum side yard setback of ten (10) feet. The Premises is located at 14 "D" STREET, MADAKET, Assessor's Map 60.2.1, Parcel 1, Land Court Plan 3092-T, Lot 87A, including Parcel 18, and Land Court Plan 3092-R, Lot 104. The property is zoned Residential-2. 2. The Decision is based upon the Application and material submitted with it and the testimony and evidence presented at the hearing. The Planning Board made no recommendation as the matter was not of planning concern. There was one (1) letter on file from a predecessor-in-title (Applicant's mother) of,the subject property which stated that she had bought the property in May of 1975. At that time, there was a principal single-family dwelling and a "small cottage...had electricity but no plumbing" which they "continued to use...as a bedroom for guests and grandchildren". There was no opposition expressed at the hearing. 3. Applicant represented that she has continued to use the bunk house consistently as a bedroom for overflow guests since the time the title passed to her. Applicant further represented that through discussions with a previous owner of the property, it was learned that the bunk house was constructed in 1968 for use as an extra bedroom for guests at a point about 2.67 feet from the southwesterly side. yard lot line, during a time that ,pre-dated the enactment of the Zoning Bylaw, thus the structure is validly grandfathered as to use and location. Applicant proposes to construct an addition onto the bunk house that would be no closer to the southwesterly side yard lot line that the existing structure, but begin at a point that is about eight (8) feet from the southwesterly side yard lot line and would extend in a northeasterly direction away from that lot line. As part of the renovation, a new foundation would be constructed under the existing portion of the bunk house, thus raising the roof ridge height within the setback area, while keeping that part of the structure intact. The structure would continue to contain one (1) bedroom, but a bathroom and siting area would be added, with no kitchen facilities. Though Applicant is arguably allowed to have a secondary dwelling on the Premises, which would require placement of a kitchen facilities, she prefers to leave it as a guest bedroom only. 4. The Board expressed concern about the placement of the bunk house, especially in light of the fact that the structure would have to be raised up to put the foundation under it. The issue was raised as to what would prohibit the structure from being moved entirely out of the required ten-foot side yard setback area to allow the existing bunk house and addition to meet the requirements. Applicant agreed to move the bunkhouse outside of the setback area to a point northeasterly of the current location. 5. Therefore, the Board finds that the construction of the addition onto the pre-existing nonconforming bunk house would not be substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing nonconforming structure, provided that the structure be moved entirely outside of the required ten-foot side yard setback area. There would be a benefit to the neighborhood in that the structure would then meet the setback requirements and provide more separation between the subject structure from the structure located on the lot immediately adjacent to it to the east. 6. Accordingly, upon a UNANIMOUS VOTE, the Board GRANTS the requested SPECIAL PERMIT under Nantucket Zoning Bylaw §139-33A to allow the expansion of a bunk house structure from about 104 square feet to a total of about 420 square feet upon the following condition: - The bunk house shall meet all setback requirements, i.e., be moved entirely outside of the southeasterly required ten-foot side yard setback area.
