Most of the homes in this area are about 30 years old. She is proposing an addition to the side of her home for a main level living space. These homes are similar to a split level home. The home as it exists currently has 2 bedrooms. Part of the addition would be over the garage so the main level would be renovated for the living space and an addition on top. Ms. Yasenchak reviewed the proposed variances requested as well as parking for one vehicle on the addition side. Side setbacks are an issue and the reason we are here. The addition over the garage increases the non-compliance. Ms. Yasenchak reviewed the siting of the home on the lot. The shed on the lot is preexisting nonconforming. Recently a contractor redid the deck area on this tree house. This was there when she did purchase the home. Ms. Yasenchak reviewed the reasoning for the request as well as additional alternatives/options to the project which were entertained but not feasible.

(100%) Minimum parking spaces/residential unit: 1 parking space 0 1 parking space (100%) Applicant: James Burns, partner Gaslight Apartments LLC, and Burns Management Inc. Agent: Bob Wakeman Mr. Burns stated they purchased Gaslight Apartments in 2001. Mr. Burns provided some background information on the project and the site and how the apartments have gone from 70 to 71 apartments. The unit in question was formerly storage space which was converted to a small studio apartment due to the demand. In refinancing the property recently it was determined that the complex is currently non compliant due to the additional unit. The variance is not substantial because the structure itself will remain unchanged on the exterior. There will be no undesirable change to the neighborhood or district. The requested variance is consistent with the prevailing pattern of development in the neighborhood and zoning district. The additional unit adds only one or two possible vehicles at most to the currently available off-street parking areas. These parking areas are sufficient for the Gaslight apartment complex and are seldom, if ever, full or near full. The site currently conforms to lot coverage density requirements for buildings in the UR- 5 district with principal building coverage at 22.7%. Existing permeable surface on the lot is 41% with the minimum requirement is 15%. NOTIFICATIONS/APPROVALS/CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: -County Planning Board referral required-response noted “No significant County wide or Inter Community Impact” issued August 3, 2016. Discussion ensued among the Board concerning the parking.
