The existing site plan depicts a 624 sq. ft. house,the easterly setback shows a 14.1 ft. existing side yard setback, and a distance of 56.4 front yard setback, and a dimension of 16.4 ft. and 18.3 ft. from John's Pond to the concrete pad. The proposed house is approximately 1,500 sq. ft. with a deck in the rear. The house is shifting westerly toward John's Pond to increase the side yard setback to 16 ft. to make it more conforming with Zoning. The front yard setback is 48.1 ft. to the front steps and complies with Zoning. The side and rear yard setbacks comply with Zoning. The Conservation Commission has no issues, and the Board of Health submitted some comments relative to the demo. The reason for the Variance request is because the house is being shifted toward John's Pond to 16 ft. The other reason is the stairway in the rear is within the 50 ft. buffer. The elevation on one side is 27 ft. and 32 ft. on the other side because of the grade change. This structure will result in an improvement to the lot, and is consistent with current Zoning.
