HomeMy WebLinkAboutPlanning Board Staff Report - October 27, 2008_201402051007542067 Nantucket Planning Office
DATE: October 22, 2008
TO: Planning Board
FROM: Tom Broadrick, Land Use Planner
RE: Agenda Items for the Meeting of Monday, October 27, 2008
I. Call to order: No board members have indicated they would not be present. I will not and so
Leslie will attend.
II. Approval of the agenda: Should be all set as of this writing. We have placed the public hearings
earlier on the agenda to accommodate applicants’ requests.
III. Minutes:
October 16, 2008: Ready for approval.
IV. Public Hearings:
#7084 WB Nantucket Holdings, 3 Arrowhead Drive, action deadline 10-30-08 – Please see
Ed Pesce’s review of the final set of plans. Staff recommends the Board approve the
subdivision plans as revised and consider the draft decision included. As this public hearing is
still open, the Board should hear the applicant’s final presentation/listen to public
comment/close the public hearing/consider the approval or denial of the project.
#44-08 Nantucket Dreamland Foundation, South Water Street/Easy Street, action deadline
01-25-08 – Please review the submitted materials concerning this new application. The Board
should open the public hearing/listen to the applicant’s presentation/listen to public
comment/direct the applicant and staff to prepare materials necessary for the Board to reach a
decision. Just as FYI, the HDC has approved the application for this project submitted to it.
V. ANR:
#7170 Edmund G. Verney & Elizabeth T. Verney, Trs., 25 Capaum Pond Road – This is
the ANR plan staff asked to be continued to 10/27 from 10/16. The issue revolves around the
R.O.W. shown on the plan upon which the lots to be created take their frontage. Originally the
plan showed only a twenty (20) foot R.O.W. but the applicant has agreed to provide a forty (40)
foot R.O.W. consistent with similar properties to the south (see GIS map attached). Eventually
it would be best to have the “travelled way” located within a forty (40) foot wide R.O.W. along
all the lots abutting the “travelled way”. The original Lot 5A will remain as the locus of the
Planning Board Agenda for Monday, October 27, 2008
single family dwelling; Lot 5B will become the way providing frontage; Lot 5C is unbuildable
but will probably be combined with existing Lot D. The “way” which is a cul-de-sac off
Tristram Avenue was used to provide “legal” frontage but neither Tristram nor the way were
ever constructed.
Staff recommends the Board find the application does Not Require Approval under the Subdivision
Control Law and therefore may be endorsed as such.
VI. Second Dwellings:
68 Union Street, Map 55.1.4 Parcel 68, David Wiley – Please see Venessa Moore’s staff
report recommending approval of the second dwelling.
VII. Previous Plans:
#6475 Holdgate Subdivision, Forrest Avenue, Form J-lots to be released – Staff recommends
the Board release the remaining lots as the roadway has been completed in accordance with the
approved subdivision plans.
VIII. ZBA Cases: Staff recommends no comment on the following applications as there are no
planning impacts.
#64-08 Marie Anne Werner as owner, Jeremy L. David and Patricia A. David as applicant,
1 Gardner Court (Map 42.3.1 Parcel 1882)
#65-08 Richard A. and Claire H. Sequist, 10 Jonathan Way (Map 75 Parcel 44)
#66-08 John R. Schmidt and Wendy F. Conway, 28 Bosworth Road (Map 92.4 Parcel 121)
#67-08 Manual Martin and Bethany L. Thibault as owners, William Stone as applicant, 2
Atlantic Avenue (Map 55.4.1 Parcel 98)
#68-08 Jebel, LLC, 40 Orange Street (Map 42.3.2 Parcel 206)
#69-08 Lawrence C. Mcquade and Margaret O. Mcquade, 97 Baxter Road (Map 48
Parcels 19 & 20)
#72-08 David Butler, 8 Salrose Road (Map 67 Parcel 106)
Staff recommends you consider the parking impacts of the following application. Please note that
the applicants received a previous special permit to allow antique sales in the garage only and
were granted relief from parking and loading zones. The present application proposes to convert
the dwelling to art and antique sales and convert the garage to a dwelling. Again the applicants
are seeking relief from parking and loading zone requirements as shown on the attached site plan.
While the ZBA is the special permit granting authority, the Planning Board may make a
recommendation to the ZBA regarding parking layout. Staff suggests that backing out onto Union
Street should be prohibited; that parallel space #3will be difficult to exit and that a handicapped
space be provided.
#73-08 Henry and Miriam Varian, 54 Union Street (Map 55.1.4 Parcel 32)
