Proposal

The applicant is requesting a modification to a previously approved new two-story residence that was approved by the DRB in 2022. The modification includes a variance to exceed the maximum unit size from 50% to 51.7% (an increase of 168 square feet) as the home was constructed larger than originally permitted.

From the Letter of Intent

A proposed residential project that previously received Design Review Board approval with waivers for side open space requirements, second-floor setback, and elevator location. The house is nearing substantial completion but requires a unit size variance due to the previously approved waivers.

  • Unit size variance for previously approved design
  • Second floor construction (110 sqft over)
  • Rooftop elevator (58 sqft over)
  • Continuation of construction per previously approved design
