Also present was <br /> Dan O'Jala with Down Cape Engineer, Adam Moring who is the Engineer for the project, <br /> and Jim Morahan, homeowner. Attorney Kirrane provided the Board with a site plan <br /> showing the existing and proposed dwelling. The application is for a specific finding <br /> because it's an addition to an existing single-family residential structure. The lot is situated <br /> on a 10,000 plus square foot lot with 87 ft. of frontage along Cayuga Avenue and slopes <br /> down to John's Pond. The existing house is a single-story residential ranch style structure, <br /> consisting of five (5) rooms, and has three (3) bedrooms that was built in 1964. <br /> The dwelling itself is non-conforming because it sits only 36.9 ft. from Cayuga Ave, and <br /> 38.3 ft. from the edge of the wetland resource area. The front setback requirement is 40 ft. <br /> and the requirement from the pond is a 50 ft. setback. Under Section 174-17 the Board has <br /> the authority to grant a specific finding for the requested relief. <br /> 1 <br />
