Cahoon, Chairman TOWN OF NANTUCKET BOARD OF APPEALS NANTUCKET, MASSACHUSETTS 02554 DECISION: The BOARD OF APPEALS, at a Public Hearing held on FRIDAY, DEC- EMBER 14, 1984 at 1:30 p.m. in the Town and County Building, Nantucket, made the following Decision in the Application of SCOTT STEARNS (096 -84), address 153 Longmeadow Street, Longmeadow, MA 01106: 1. This is an Application for a SPECIAL PERMIT under SECTION 71 (extension of a pre- existing non - conforming use) for relief from the provisions of SECTION 5 of the By -Law (intensity regulations). Alterna- tive relief by Variance from Section 5 is asked for but deemed under the circumstances set forth below to be not applicable. The property is lo- cated at 15 UNION STREET, PLAN NO. 13785 -A, TAX MAP NO. 4232 -072 and is in Zoning District RESIDENTIAL OLD HISTORIC. 2. From review of the Application, testimony, representations and letters of record, the Board finds that Applicant purposes a dining room addition to his single - family residence which predates the By -Law. The addition would partially in -fill the southwest corner of the building and encroach upon the south side lot line setback, 5 feet in ROH. The existing south wall of the building, said to date from 1795, runs along the south lot line except at the infilled corner. Since the proposed addition or in- filled area will have a south wall set 3 feet back from the south lot line, it will be less non - conforming. 3. We are informed that the south side abuttor had no objection and the north side abuttor expressed approval at the Hearing. The addi- tion has approval of the Historic District Commission, we are advised, and the Planning Board recommends favorable action. No contrary position was heard. 4. The proposed addition, as extension of a pre - existing non- conforming use, is neither more non - conforming in distance nor substan- tially more detrimental to the neighborhood but, to the contrary, will have a beneficial impact in aesthetic effect. The addition is in harmony ('096 -84) -2- with the intent and purpose of the By -Law. 5. Accordingly,"by UNANIMOUS vote, the Board hereby GRANTS the Applicant the SPECIAL PERMIT pursuant to SECTION 71 providing relief P from SECTION 5 to the extent required for the ad.di4jon set forth in the Application. fM+'rrr' ruw.
