Box 1104, Nantucket, MA 02554, Board of Appeals File No. 038-96 , the Board made the following Decision: 1 . Applicant is seeking VARIANCE relief pursuant to Nantucket Zoning By-Law §139-32 from the requirements of §139-16A (Intensity Regulations - rear yard setback) . Applicant proposes to construct an exterior stairway, providing a secondary means of access to second floor space, onto the rear of the structure that will encroach upon the required five (5) foot rear yard setback by 36+" . See also Board of Appeals File No. 003-96 that allowed construction of the new building onto which the proposed stairway is to be added . The premises is located at 19 WASHINGTON STREET, Assessor' s Map 42 . 3 . 1 , Parcel 95, Plan Book 9, Page 33 . The property is zoned Residential-Commercial . 2 . The Decision is based upon the Application and materials submitted with it and testimony and evidence presented at the Hearing. The Planning Board made a favorable recommendation. There was no opposition on file . 3 . Applicant was granted Special Permit and Variance relief in BOA Decision 003-96 to demolish a derelict structure and construct a new 2 1/2 story structure that was to be used primarily as an art gallery for the display and sale of members ' art work as well as for lectures and possibly classes . Applicant represented that the new 760± square-foot structure would comply with all front , side and rear yard setback requirements and would increase the ground cover ratio from 41+% to 54+%. The existing building violated the required side yard setback distance of five ( 5) feet by being sited 1 . 89+ feet from the southerly side yard lot line . Applicant now represents that during the design process, after the previous hearing, it was realized that in order to bring the second floor space up to the Building Code, a second means of access was needed to the second floor . Due to the layout of the small interior space of the first floor, Applicant states that it would be impossible to include a second stairway within the structure and be able to provide the handicapped lift as well . Applicant will maintain the proposed footprint with the addition of the exterior stairway that would encroach upon the required rear yard setback distance of five ( 5) feet by 36+" . 4 . The Board expressed concern that the exterior stairway would be used as a primary access and was assured by a representative of the Artists ' Association of Nantucket that they would take steps to make sure that the stairway would not be used as an access unless in an emergency. Therefore , the Board finds that a grant of relief by Variance to add the exterior stairway within the five-foot rear yard setback area by 36+" would be in keeping with sound health and safety considerations and due to the small size of the Lot , 1 ,414+ and structure , 760+ square feet, and owing to circumstances relating to the soil conditions , shape or topography of such land or structures and especially affecting such land or structures but not affecting generally the zoning district in which it is located, a literal enforcement of the provisions of this Zoning By-Law would involve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise , to the Applicant , and the desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent or purpose of such By-Law. 5 . Accordingly, by a unanimous vote, the Board GRANTS the requested relief by VARIANCE under Nantucket Zoning By-Law §139-16A to add an exterior stairway to the rear of the proposed structure that would encroach upon the five-foot rear yard setback area by 36+" upon the following conditions: A) The exterior stairway shall be used solely for the purpose of providing emergency access and not as a primary means of access to the second floor space; and B) All other conditions as stated i BO . Decision No. 003-96 shall be in full force . Date. : September g1O , 1996 0 ' • M' O 'Mara alLih, _4. Yinda F . Williams . :er . . Lei - ..er Edward S .
