DOUGHERTY (079 -86) Enclosed, please find notice of a decision of the BOARD OF APPEALS which has this day been filed with the Town Clerk. Any appeal from this action shall be made pursuant to Section 17 of Chapter 40A of the General Laws, and shall be�.filed within twenty (20) days after this date. BOARD OF APPEALS r TOWN OF NANTUCKET BOARD OF APPEALS NANTUCKET, MASSACHUSETTS 02554 nP TCTnW- In the matter of the Application of WILLIAM M. DOUGHERTY and MARY B. DOUGHERTY (079 -86), held at 1:30 P.M. on Friday, July 25, 1986, at the Town and County Building, Nantucket, the Board enters the following Decision and makes the following findings: 1. This is an application for a VARIANCE granting relief from Nantucket Code, §139 -16.A (Intensi.ty Regulations - Side Line Setback) . If granted, the Applicants would be permitted to maintain their existing dwelling, which lies within 4.3 feet of the side line of their lot; 5 feet are required by the zoning by -law. The premises consist of the property shown as Lot 24A on plan recorded with Nantucket Deeds in Plan Book 21, Page 40 (Nantucket Assessor's Parcel 42.4.1 -17), are located at 7 WILLARD STREET, and are zoned as RESIDENTIAL -1. 2. Based upon the application and the materials and other evidence presented at the public hearing, including the plan, a copy of which is attahced hereto as Exhibit A ( the "Plan ") , the Board finds that, in 1981, the Applicants constructed their single - family dwelling upon the premises; through inadvertence, the southeasterly side of the house was built within the required 5 -foot side line setback, ranging from 4.8 feet setback at the southerly corner of the house to 4.3 feet at the easterly corner of the deck. The Applicants, who have only recently learned of this nonconformity, seek relief in order to render title to their premises marketable. Page 1 of 2 3. This Board finds that, owing to circumstances relating to the shape of the land and structures thereon (consisting of the existing nonconformity in side line setback) which affect the premises, but not affecting generally the zoning district in which they are located, a literal enforcement of the provisions of the by -law would involve substantial hardship to the Applicants (consisting, again, of the existing nonconformity, and the fact that, if relief were denied, the applicants would be prevented from maintaining their existing structure which has been inexistence for five years), and that desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent and purpose of the by -law (in that no change in conditions now existing will occur). The Board further finds, for the same reason, that the granting of relief is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Act and the Nantucket zoning by -law. 4. For the reasons set forth, the BOARD OF APPEALS hereby GRANTS the Applicants relief from the zoning by -law, Nantucket Code §139 -16.C, permitting the Applicants to maintain their existing structure as shown upon the Plan, by a VARIANCE, by a UNANIMOUS VOTE.
