DECISION:
Certificate U42261
Lot 47; Land Court Plan 15961 -H
Plan Book 24, Page 73
1. Upon review of the Application submitted by the Applicant, the Zoning Administrator
determined pursuant to Nantucket Zoning By -Law Section 139- 33.A(1)(b) that the
proposed extension, alteration, and change to the conforming structure on the pre- existing
nonconforming lot by renovation and construction of conforming additions to the
structure will not increase the nonconforming nature of the lot, and will not create any
new nonconformities.
2. The Applicant is proposing to alter the existing structure by building additions to this
approximately 915 square foot dwelling known as "Clew ", Unit 5 of seven units in
Crow's Nest Cottages Condominium. The alterations consist of bump -out additions on
the north, east, and west elevations of the dwelling. On the south elevation, the gable is
bumping out with the main ridge going up approximately sixteen (16) inches and the
secondary ridge going up approximately ten (10) inches. The resulting ridge height will
be a compliant 15 feet, 8 inches.
3. The total additional ground cover for this unit will be approximately 379 square feet,
bringing the dwelling's entire ground cover to approximately 1,294 square feet. The
existing total ground cover of the seven (7) cottages is approximately 6,806 square feet
where 27,547 square feet of ground cover is allowed. Therefore, the proposed addition,
sited within the buildable portion of the Property, will increase the ground cover ratio of
the entire lot from approximately 7.4% to approximately 7.8% in a zoning district where
a maximum 30% ground cover ratio is allowed. The total lot area is 91,824 square feet in
a district that requires a minimum lot area of 5,000 square feet.
4. The Locus, as shown on plan entitled "As -Built Plan of Crow's Nest Cottages ", dated
December 10, 2015, prepared by Michael Connolly & Associates, Inc., a reduced copy of
which is attached hereto and marked as "Exhibit A ", is pre- existing non - conforming with
respect to setbacks, with Unit 7 (known as "Reef Point ") being sited within the required
five (5) foot side yard setback and Unit 1 (known as "Grover ") sited within the required
ten (10) foot front yard setback. The Locus is also pre- existing nonconforming with
respect to the siting of seven structures on a single lot where a maximum of two are
allowed pursuant to 139- 7.13(1).

5. The subject structure, as shown on "Existing Site Plan For Zoning Administrator
Decision in Nantucket, Ma.," dated December 10, 2015, prepared by Michael Connolly
& Associates, Inc., a reduced copy of which is attached hereto and marked as "Exhibit
B ", is conforming as to the dimensional requirements of By -law Section 139 -16.A. The
proposed alterations benefit from Nantucket Historic District Commission approval by
virtue of Certificate of Appropriateness No. 64805, as the same may be amended from
time to time. The subject unit was granted a prior Special Permit in 1999 for a seventy
(70) square foot addition in Zoning Board of Appeals File No. 089 -99. Similar relief has
been granted to other condominium units on the premises in the past.
6. The proposed extension, alteration, and change to the conforming structure on the pre-
existing, nonconforming Locus by renovation and construction of an addition will not
create any new nonconformities. The subject structure and Locus will remain conforming
as to ground cover, height, and parking. Therefore, the Zoning Administrator finds that
the proposed work will not increase the nonconforming nature of the Locus.
7. Based upon the plan entitled, "Proposed Site Plan For Zoning Administrator Decision in
Nantucket, Ma.," dated December 10, 2015, prepared by Michael Connolly & Associates,
Inc., a reduced copy of which is attached hereto and marked as "Exhibit C ", the Zoning
Administrator finds that the proposed work will take place within the buildable portion of
the property, will not create any new nonconformities, and will not increase the
nonconforming nature of the Locus, and hereby issues the permit as requested.
