Sitting on this hearing are the four regular Board members and Mr. Ganzenmuller. Attorney Christopher Kirrane represented the applicants for a Written Finding request for an addition to their pre-existing non-conforming dwelling. The structure is non-conforming as it is situated 22.9 ft. from the front setback to Running Light Way which requires a 40 ft. setback in the R3 Zoning District, and there's an existing deck that is situated 12.1 ft. from the property line that violates the rear yard setback of the required 15 ft. setback. The shed that is shown on the easterly side is 4.8 ft. from the property line, and is considered a non-conforming condition. The homeowners are requesting to construct an additional living space on the westerly side of the existing dwelling that is approximately 500 sq. ft. They will be removing the existing deck and replacing it with a patio, and will be removing the shed. The addition will conform to the rear and side yard setback,and will be 27.6 ft.from Running Light Way which will make it non-conforming but will not be any more non-conforming than what currently exists at 22.9 ft. The existing lot coverage is 19.9%and removing the deck and shed the lot coverage will decrease to 19.7%. There are no new non-conformities being created. Chairman Bonvie was very pleased to see the dashed line depicted on the site plan showing the 15 ft. setback. He would like to see this delineation on all site plans. Mr. Furbush asked if the spa was being removed. Attorney Kirrane believes that it will remain. 1
