Although the locus is a parallelogram 200' x 100', it contains about 18,209 square feet because of the angle between the street lines and the side lines; min~ lot area in this Residential-10 zoning district is 10,000 square feet. The applicants propose to divide the locus so that the principal dwelling will be on a lot, containing 10,000 square feet and fronting on Hooper Far.m Road, conforming with all dimensional requirements of the Nantucket Zoning By-law. The secondary dwelling would be on a lot containing about 8,209 square feet and fronting on Hull Lane; it would confor.m with all dimensional requirements of the Zoning By-law except for lot area and front yard setback; the secondary dwelling is sited about 11.5 feet from Hull Lane at the closest point, with min~ front yard setback being 20 feet. Each dwelling already has its own driveway, with the driveway for the principal dwelling coming in from Hooper Far.m Road and the driveway for the secondary dwelling coming in from Hull Lane; the result of dividing the lot would be to eliminate the present nonconforming situation of there being two driveway entrances. Accordingly, the applicants request relief by variance from Zoning By-law ~ l39-l6.A (Intensity Regulations), to allow the lot containing the present secondary dwelling to have lot area reduced to about 8,209 square feet, and to have front yard setback reduced to about 11.5 feet in order to accommodate the existing dwelling.

NANTUCKET ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS 2 Fairgrounds Road Nantucket, Massachusetts 02554 Assessor's Map 67, Parcel 272 40 Hooper Farm Road Residential-10 Plan Book 15, Page 95 (No lot number) Deed, Book 503, Page 32 DECISION: 1. At a public hearing of the Nantucket Zoning Board of Appeals, on Thursday, May 13, 2010, at 1:00 P.M., at 2 Fairgrounds Road, Nantucket, Massachusetts, the Board made the following decision on the application of JOSEPH A. DEMBY and JILL H. ARAUJO DEMBY, c/o Reade, Gullicksen, Hanley & Gifford, LLP, Post Office Box 2669, Nantucket, Massachusetts 02584, File No. 030-10: 2. The applicants wish to divide their existing lot containing a primary dwelling and a secondary dwelling into two lots, each of which would contain one of the dwellings. The locus is situated in the Residential-10 zoning district, in which the minimum lot area is 10,000 square feet. Although the lot's dimensions are 100' x 200', it is in the shape of a parallelogram rather than a rectangle, and as a result the lot area is about 18,209 square feet. At present, the primary dwelling receives its access by a driveway entrance from Hooper Farm Road, while the secondary dwelling's access is by a driveway from Hull Lane, which runs parallel to Hooper Farm Road. This arrangement pre- exists, and is nonconforming with, the present limitation of each lot to a single driveway access under Nantucket Zoning By-law ~139-20.1. The applicants propose to divide their property into two lots, one of which would front on Hooper Farm Road and contain the primary dwelling, would be 10,000 square feet in area and would conform to all dimensional zoning requirements, and the other of which would contain about 8,209 square feet and the secondary dwelling; it would thus be nonconforming in lot area, and also would be nonconforming as to front yard setback, being 1 sited about 11.5 feet from Hull Lane at the closest point, with minimum front yard setback in this district being 20 feet. The present conditions upon the locus, and the approximate lines of proposed division, are shown upon a sketch plan attached hereto as Exhibit A, which shows the Hooper Farm Road lot as Lot 1 and the Hull Lane lot as Lot 2. The applicants accordingly request relied from By-law ~139-16.A (Intensity Regulations: Lot Area and Front Yard Setback) with regard to Lot 2 in order to divide the property as proposed. The locus is situated at 40 Hooper Farm Road, Assessor's Parcel 67-272, is shown upon plan recorded with Nantucket Deeds in Plan Book 15, Page 95, and is situated in a Residential-10 zoning district. 3. Our decision is based upon the application and accompanying materials, and representations and testimony received at our public hearing. There was no Planning Board recommendation, on the basis that no matters of planning concern were presented. The applicants' counsel read fourteen letters from neighbors in support of the application into the record; no opposition was presented at the public hearing. 4. The Board of Appeals is mindful of the rigorous standards for the granting of variances under applicable law, and recognizes that variances are to be "sparingly granted". The applicants represented that they were motivated to seek relief by their pending divorce proceedings, but acknowledged that this was not in itself a basis for the granting of variance relief. In the absence of any basis for the statutory findings that are necessary to support variance relief, the Board of Appeals would be powerless to grant such relief. However, the applicants argued that in the present case facts were presented that would justify the grant of relief. Specifically, they suggested that the shape of the locus, being a parallelogram, meets the requirement that a variance be based upon soil conditions, shape or topography which distinguishes it from other lots in the same zoning district; that the division of the locus into two lots would eliminate a zoning nonconformity because each of the resultant lots would have a single driveway, and thus that the requested relief would not derogate from the purpose and intent of the Zoning By-law; that the strong expression of support from neighbors, with the absence of opposition, demonstrates the desirability of the relief to be granted; and that the financial hardship of having the locus as a single lot, rather than two lots, is evident. 5. On the basis of this presentation, a majority consisting of four of the members sitting (Waine, Koseatac, Botticelli and McCarthy), with one (Toole) opposed, voted to make the finding that the proposed relief, for the reasons advanced by the applicants as set forth above, that owing to circumstances 2 relating to the shape of the locus and the structures thereon, and especially affecting the locus but not generally affecting lots in the same zoning district, a literal application of the provisions of the By-law would result in a substantial financial hardship to the applicants, and that desirable relief may be granted as requested by the applicants without derogating from the purpose and intent of the By-law; and accordingly to grant the requested relief by variance from lot area and front yard setback for the lot to be created approximately as shown as Lot 2 on Exhibit A; subject to the following conditions: (a) No additional ground cover shall be placed upon either of the lots to be created by the division of the locus without further relief from this Board; and (b) No secondary dwellings shall be permitted upon either of such lots.
