It's just a big bedroom, and it's just going to stay the same.
But could you please show us photos now?
Así que no puede enseñar fotos ahora.
Ahora déjame ver.
Esperate que yo no soy buena en computador y mi hijo me está ayudando.
So, let me check.
so it's more for that my daughter can have a place to live but it's a very large space
and she's going to live on the second and third floor
Ella va a vivir en el segundo y tercer piso
No, ella va a vivir en unos de los apartamentos
Que ella decida, uno, el segundo o el primero
Esa es su decisión
No, she's going to live either in the first or second apartment
It's her decision
Say that again, I don't know
The interpreter will be
Are you going to make a decision whether the first or second floor?
Yes, that's correct
um questions from the board yes um looking at a satellite photo it does look like the third floor
already exists and so because this application says it's for an addition what new construction
is being completed así que este basado en la foto de satelite parece que el tercer piso ya existe
Y cuando se trata de esta solicitud para una adición, ¿qué es la nueva construcción?
La nueva adición es primer piso, primer piso y segundo piso.
Esa es la nueva adición, que ahí el patio es grande y tal, una cosa, y ahí vamos a este primer piso y segundo piso, nada más.
So the new addition is going to be the first floor and the second floor that we're going to be adding the two apartments.
The interpreter requires verification.
Usted dijo, ¿qué fue lo último que dijo acerca del patio grande?
Sí, que como tal extensión en el patio, eso es lo que vamos a extender, primer piso y segundo piso, más nada.
so um since there is a large backyard that's what we're going to extend the first floor and
the second floor nothing else show us what that looks like the plans we had i thought were existing
plans could you show us what the new addition is este porque los planes que yo estaba viendo yo
creía que era ya eran planes que existían ahí nos puede enseñar cuál sería la adición
Yes, I'll show you.
put in place so the edition was approved but nothing has been done yet
can we go back to the drawings um because i think you had an elevation that showed
the existing to what was being put back new. Correct. I think we're just trying to understand
on the plan. Yeah. Así que sí podemos regresar para atrás a los dibujos porque enseñan una
elevación este y de lo existente y lo que se va a añadir. Es sobre lo que. So everything
She has to testify, sir.
Ella tiene que testificar.
Así que usted tiene que testificar, señora.
Is it where the highlighted lines are?
Está ahí en el plano ya añadido.
El plano que se ha sometido ya está.
Eso es lo que se va a hacer.
En base a eso es que está la estructura ya aprobada.
So what is on the plans is what has already been approved and nothing else is going to be added.
What is on the plans is what has already been approved and nothing else is going to be added on top of that.
It's just it's going to be done within what has already been approved.
And what does she mean by it's already been approved?
Because we're here to get approval from us today.
¿Y a qué se refiere de lo que ya ha sido aprobado?
Porque si estamos aquí en esta reunión para que ustedes puedan recibir una aprobación.
Exactamente.
Aprobación, o sea, aprobado quizás no es la cosa, pero la propiedad está ahí.
Lo único que queremos hacer es lo que está en el plano, aprobar dos apartamentos con la estructura que está ahí.
No vamos a hacer nada de lo que no sea en el plano con todas las cosas que están ahí.
So the maybe approval was the wrong word, but meaning that we are not planning on adding anything on top of what is already there.
So we're just wanting approval for two apartments on the two structures that are already in place.
so so just to just to clarify um so i believe that um a permit was already issued for the
addition but that was only for the addition that wasn't for the two-family use so now you've
applied for a permit for both the addition and the two-family use is that correct
Así que para clarificar, el permiso primero que ustedes habían solicitado era solamente para la adición, pero ahora están sometiendo para un permiso de uso multifamiliar. ¿Eso es correcto?
Sí, eso es correcto.
Yes, that's correct.
Okay, and then where are the utilities for the second floor unit going to be?
¿Y dónde estarán las utilidades para la segunda unidad en el segundo piso?
In the closet that is marked there, there will be all the utilities for the two apartments.
So there's going to be a metal closet that's going to have the utilities for both apartments.
okay and then
so and you can see it on the plans and it's um on the first floor and in the um end of the first
floor so um and how it the designer designed it was or the architect designed it um he's gonna
to have utilities for both apartments, and he already added a separate place where those
utilities would be.
Okay, and then what's the trash plan for the two units?
¿Y cuál es el plan de basura para ambas unidades?
Se va, o sea, cada, hay mismo, porque la casa es sola, no está pegada, entonces hay
un pasillo grande donde se ponen las dos cosas de las unidades de basura porque la casa no es
pegada, es despegada. Permítame, so since the building is separate, there's an alleyway and in
that alleyway there is enough space to put the trash and that's how they normally put the trash.
Okay, and then both tenants have access to the alleyway and to the rear yard?
Y ambos inquilinos tuvieran acceso a ese pasillo y la parte de atrás.
Correctamente.
Correct.
And is there a drawing that shows the facade with the new second entrance?
Y este, hay alguna foto que enseña este edificio con la segunda entrada?
Sí, claro que sí.
Tratamos de buscar.
Yes, we're searching for it now.
I don't know.
You know, I see it in plan.
You know, I see it in plan.
I was wondering, do we have it in elevation to see the new elevation?
I was wondering, do we have it in elevation
to see the new elevation?
Así que ya lo vemos en el plan.
Queremos ver el aspecto de elevación.
El aspecto de elevación.
Déjame ver usted.
Que no hay, no se va a hacer elevación.
so it's not going to be elevated it's just going to remain how it is
there's no entrance there currently though but there'd have to be there'd have to be a step up
because the first floor is above grade because it tuviera que haber este como un paso para
So it's in the plans and it's in the picture.
That's the door for the first floor.
And then the door for the second floor is going to be created.
where you see the window that's where the um door it's gonna be and it's gonna be doors
leading up to the stairs so um we're going to take out the window and that's where we're going
to place the door so the reason i asked is that's not where it is in the plan and that's why i
wanted to see a drawing that showed the relocation of the door because in the plan it is shown very
close to the gutter which is not where the window is and i wanted to know what the plan for that
window opening was but así que por eso es que le estaba preguntando porque en el plano no está
como lo estoy viendo ahora está más cerca de la alcantarilla y quería saber a dónde
es que iba a estar ubicada. Ahí se va a remover la ventana más para acá.
So the window is going to be taken out and it's going to be moved more to the side.
so then it's going to be pushed to the side and it's going to have new supports
and um because i i understand that it's going to be closer to
the gutter and so it's going to be created new and and a new door with uh supports okay i would
just tell your client i would suggest that they make sure that that's reviewed by a structural
engineer yes it's going to be a company that's going to do everything it's going to acquire
the correct permissions because by law it has to be a certified company what's what's the
what's the depth of the rear yard with with the addition
so we're gonna show you the picture right now
I didn't see a dimension on the plan.
so there's a site there's a site plan at least i don't know i don't know how accurate
the site plan is
and I can't read the dimension
And I can't read the dimension, but it looks like you've got a fairly decent rear yard.
but it looks like you've got a fairly
Así que ahí está el plan de sitio, y no sé cuán preciso es, pero se ve que usted tiene una parte atrás que es bastante grande.
Sí, y la yard es bastante, bastante grande.
Yes, it's very large.
Right. So, I can't understand why you're building an addition and have layouts that really are not livable for a two-bedroom unit.
literally it's a kitchen and that's it barely enough room for dining or our living space
in the two plans on the on the first floor or the second floor plan
Porque literalmente es solamente como una cocina, no hay este.
No, pero que atrae suficiente espacio, mucho espacio en la parte que los apartamentos van a salir con suficiente espacio porque se puede ver.
so um but there's still enough space each unit is going to have two bedrooms it's going to have
a living room and it's also going to have a kitchen so there's going to be enough space
not based on the plan dimensions
so it might be that the first floor isn't as big but the second floor is pretty big
no I'm done okay answer if she knows if there are any other multifamilies on the block
¿Usted sabe si hay algún otro este multifamiliar en la cuadra?
no okay questions or comments from our attorney
because um most of the houses there are um joined together and mine's like one of the
only ones that is separate um yeah i just wanted to because i was looking at the plans
that were submitted
with the application
and the plans
that were submitted
with this application
only show an addition
on the first floor.
Así que quería dejarles saber
que los planes
que fueron sometidos
con esta solicitud,
esos planes solamente
demuestran una adición
en el primer piso.
And the plans
that were submitted
with your exhibits
are the plans
that were approved by lni for the for the permit that you have for the addition and that shows an
addition at the first and second floors y los planes que fueron sometidos este con los anexos
So, if we approve the addition on this application, it would only be for the first floor.
No, pero que se mandaron los dos.
so both of them were sent in so i understand the the plans for an addition on the first
and second floor were sent in with your exhibits but what was reviewed by ellen i with this permit
application only shows an addition on the first floor yo entiendo que este los planes para la
adición del primer y segundo piso fueron enviados este pero este lo que es
repasaron a través del ley fueron los permisos pero los permisos de la
aplicación solamente para las del primer piso nos los permisos que yo estoy
No, lo permiso que yo estoy solicitando es para hacer los apartamentos, no para hacer la adición.
solicitando y para hacer los apartamentos no paras
So the permits that I'm applying for are to create the two apartments, not for additions.
Para hacerlo multifamilia.
Para hacerlo multifamilia, eso es.
To make it up.
Permiso que yo estoy pidiendo solamente para hacerlo multifamilia.
So I'm just asking for the permit to create it or to make it a multifamily.
okay that that makes more sense how just so you know the way the application was filed was for an
addition and to family not just for two family y eso tiene sentido es que la solicitud como la
So it must have been an error because what we're asking for is just to make it a multifamily.
Solamente eso, parece que fue un error.
Porque la adicción ya está hecha, ¿entiendes?
Está aprobada.
Entonces solamente el permiso que yo estoy solicitando hoy ante la corte,
dile así, para que me aprueben en multifamiliar,
porque el permiso de la adicción ya eso está aprobado.
Because the permit for the addition is already approved,
so that's why we're only here in front of the board
to ask for the permit for a multifamily use.
Okay, thank you so much for the clarification.
