Dear Assembly Point]fealty, LLC:
I am writing to you in response to my review of the proposed construction of a residential
addition and alterations to the existing home on the parcel referenced above.
I find that the project will require an Area Variance from our Zoning Board of Appeels and
Site Plan Review from our Planning Board. Specifically, variance relief is required from the
minimum setback requirements of the Waterfront residential district. Please also be aware
of our Floor Area Ratio requirements as the new cornered porch areas will count in such
calculations. Sit- Plan Review is required for expansion of nonconforming structure within
a Critical Environmental Area, (CEA).
This letter serves as the necessary denial letter in the processing of your applications.

Dear Planning and Zoning Board Members:

purposes of preparation of an area variance and site plan review application describing proposed

within the 20' side setback area.
Attached please find 15 copies of area variance and site plan review application packages. We

of Appeals.
Please contact me if you have any questions or if you require additional information.
Best Regards,
