Petitioner, requests a Variance from side setback to construct an addition to the existing kitchen for the property located at 26 Gables Circle. The Variance which has been requested may be granted upon a finding of this Board that: 1 . Special conditions and circumstances exist which especially affect the land, building or structure involved and which are not generally affecting other land, buildings, or structures in the same district. 2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioner. 3. Desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public good and without nullifying or substantially derogation from the intent of the district or the purpose of the Ordinance. The Board of Appeal, after careful considerations the evidence presented at the hearing, makes the following findings of fact: 1. Petitioner sought to expand the footprint of the existing two-story dwelling by constructing an addition to house a kitchen at the rear of the structure. 2. The existing dwelling is non-conforming as to the side setback requirements in this R-1 district, since it extends to within 131 of the property line. 3. The proposed addition will also extend to within 13 feet of the property line, thus extending the existing nonconformity. 4. There was no opposition to the proposed petition. On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented at the hearings, the Board of Appeal concludes as follows: 1. Special conditions exist which especially affect the subject property and not the district in general . 2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substation hardship to the petitioner. 3. Desirable relief can be granted without substantial detriment to public good and without nullifying and substantially derogating from the intent of the district or purpose of the Ordinance. • DECISION OF CHARLES E.
