Sincerely, yE=��/� 1 4� C,ins Edward &Tina Collins To Whom It May Concern: We are submitting this letter to request that an attached garage be allowed to be built to our home located at 75 Chestnut Street. The proposed driveway coincides with our present u-shaped driveway. Accordingly, the current pedestrian and vehicle patterns will not change. Our lot is a pre-existing, non-conforming corner lot which has special circumstances due to lot shape. The shape of the lot, although somewhat rectangular, is smaller in lot area than the minimum lot area requirement for the R3 zoning district. This property is further complicated due to a paper street(Maplewood Avenue) which technically makes this property a corner lot requiring two front building setbacks. Additionally, the location of the existing house (non-conforming to front, side, and rear setbacks) creates a situation that any addition to the house would require variance relief. Literal enforcement of the zoning regulations would create a substantial hardship since no addition could be added to this structure because the existing structure is non- conforming to all yard setbacks. The fact that the lot is so undersized (66% smaller than the minimum lot area requirement) and that the existing house is nonconforming with the yard setbacks support the request for the variances. Any addition to the existing structure would require zoning relief and the proposed addition, due to circumstances outlined above, is fitting with the existing neighborhood. Within the neighborhood, approximately 90% of the houses have attached garages. Furthermore, from a wetland perspective, the Conservation agent of North Andover, Jennifer Hughes, stated this lot does not have any wetlands. In summary, the proposed addition will increase the property value and surrounding values, without derogating from the intent of the zoning bylaw. Thank you for your consideration.
