PlanningBoard | 2006-04-24 | 12 | 8-C. Variance, V06-0001, and Major Design Review, DR06-0015 - Bob Allegrotti for Kevin Gorham and Katherine Kenny - 1517 Pacific Avenue (DB). The applicant requests Variances for: (1) The removal of a conforming parking space without providing a conforming equivalent parking space; and (2) The establishment of two unenclosed compact parking spaces not meeting minimum landscaping standards. The project proposes two compact parking spaces where not more than one compact space is permitted and both spaces would not incorporate the required 3-foot wide landscaping separating them from abutting property lines and structures. A Major Design Review approval is requested to add approximately 421-square feet of gross floor area, plus a covered porch to the rear of the existing single-family residence. Because the project would extend a wall an additional 7-feet toward the rear with a nonconforming westerly side yard setback of 3.5-feet, where a minimum 5-foot side yard setback is required, a finding must be made that no adverse effects such as shading, view blockage, or privacy reduction would occur on adjoining properties. The site is located within an R-4, (Neighborhood Residential) Zoning District. M/S Lynch/Kohlstrand and unanimous to move Item 8-C from the Regular Agenda to the Consent Calendar.
