well. So what is it you're trying to do? A deck? I'm putting a third floor addition on
without the setback.
It's a, the property is only 36 feet long.
So putting the addition on with the setback
wouldn't have made it worth it.
So that's what the variance is for.
And there were no oppositions.
Tom, you have any questions?
The board has any questions?
Is there anyone else here in this matter?
I see no hands, Chair.
Sharon, you checked everything out is fine?
Tax compliance and everything?
I did.
I checked everything.
Thank you.
Planning Commission.
Good afternoon, Chair.
Peter Bernard for the Planning Commission.
Sorry, can I have a repeat of the address?
I just want to make sure that I'm reading the correct thing. 123 Reed Street.
There we go.
This property is indicated for single family residential on the comprehensive plan.
While we have recognized a hardship for available open space, there is no hardships
that necessitate other variances.
Accordingly, we recommend granting the variance for open space
but oppose other variances at this location.
Thank you.
