TOWN OF NANTUCKET ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS 37 WASHINGTON STREET NANTUCKET, MASSACHUSETTS 02554 Assessor's Map 41 ~ 2 Wannacomet Road Parce1573 Land Court Plan 8852-V R-10 Lot 51 DECISION: 1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals held at 12:00 noon, Friday, November 12, 1999, in the Town Annex Building Conference Room at 37 Washington Street, Nantucket, Massachusetts, on the application of THE ESTATE OF JOHN G.W. RUSTED, JR., ELIZABETH RUSTED, EXECUTOR, 2 Wannacomet Road, Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554, Board of Appeals File No. 105-99, the Board made the following decision: 2. The Applicant seeks a SPECIAL PERMIT under Nantucket Zoning Bylaw § 129-24(A)(3) relieving the Estate from the requirements of the Residency Covenant entered into by John and Elizabeth Rusted and signed on October 23, 1995, due to a change in personal circumstances. 3. This decision is based on the application and materials submitted with it and the testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing. One letter was received supporting the grant of relief. 4. Through counsel, Mrs. Rusted advised the Board that she and her husband entered into a residency covenant with the Town on October 23, 1995. Mr. Rusted recently died and Mrs. Rusted no longer can afford to maintain such a large house. The covenant, which Mr. & Mrs. Rusted entered into in good faith will hinder Mrs. Husted's ability to sell what is now her house and impede her move into a smaller dwelling. There was no opposition voiced to the application. 5. Under §129-24(A)(3)(c), this Board may relieve an applicant from a residency covenant entered into under the phased development section of the Bylaw if it finds that strict conformance with the covenant would impose an unreasonable personal or financial hardship on the owner of the dwelling by reason of, among other things, "loss of life," and "such other personal or financial hardship as the Board may from time to time determine to be severe enough to warrant such relief." 6. The Board finds that this applicant meet the criteria set out in the above referenced section of the Bylaw and would suffer unreasonable personal and financial hardship absent relief from the covenant. Accordingly, by a unanimous vote (Hourihan, O'Mara, Waine, Parent, Toole), the Board GRANTS the requested SPECIAL PERMIT relieving the Estate of Mr. John G.W. Husted and Mrs. Elizabeth Husted from said covenant. Dated December O , 1999 a e . Waine Michael J.

H rihan, Jr., Chairman THIS NOTICE IS AVAILABLE IN LARGE. PRINT OR OTHER ALTERNATIVE FORMATS. FOR ASSISTANCE .PLEASE ;CALL .(508) 228 7215... APPLICATION OF ESTATE OF JOHN G. W. RUSTED, JR. 2 Wannacomet Road Applicant is Elizabeth Rusted as Executor of the will of John G. W. Rusted, Jr., who died unexpectedly on May 9, 1999. Ms. Rusted is Mr. Husted's widow and is selling the property to meet the obligations of the estate and because the house is too big for her needs and too expensive to maintain. Applicant's lot is subject to a year-round covenant that was executed pursuant to Section 139-24A(3) of the zoning bylaw. Mr. and Mrs. Rusted occupied the premises as their year-round residence from the time the house was built through the day of Mr. Husted's death. Applicant seeks relief from the covenant to allow her to sell the premises to a buyer who will not occupy the house on a year-round basis. The premises are under agreement with a closing date of November 22, 1999. A smaller house for Ms. Rusted is under agreement to close on December 1, 1999. Without relief from the covenant, Applicant would be unable to sell the property to the contract purchaser and thus unable to purchase the replacement property. Such inability would impose a severe personal and financial hardship on the estate and/or Ms. Rusted. Relief sought: Applicant seeks a finding and Special Permit under Section 139- 24A(3)(c) that strict conformance with the covenant would impose an unreasonable personal or financial hardship on the estate and/or on Ms. Rusted by reason of Mr. Husted's untimely death.
