Good evening everyone. Welcome to the Grosho, New Rochelle Zoning Board. Hearing my name is Erica Azener and I will be the acting chair of this evening in place of our chair who's not with us this evening. Press Bob, Prokopia. Just to introduce you to everyone up here on the in the further room as you can see to the left is Kelly Pantel. To her right is Joe, we have our mobility department to his right is Parla Flapper to my left is Robert Danielle to my right is David Fernandez his right is Abel Rodriguez to his right is Able Rodriguez, to his right is Fernando Arias, and then we have Kevin King from the Lenington Park and Jeffrey Green from corporate shiniacl. You see me, as you'll see everybody sitting up here with laptops, we're not texting or watching TV, we've got paperless, so just so you know, you see us behind the screens, we're looking at the submissions and your materials We need four votes to pass a resolution. We are down one board member So you have six year this evening and takes four votes to pass We've got a pretty large audience this evening Everybody's gonna get an opportunity to speak if they want to. We're going to have the applicant come up and speak first and give their presentation. And then we will hear from voices in opposition. We'll each have three minutes to speak. We will keep to that time limit so that anyone wants to speak, we'll have an opportunity to. We just ask that when you come up, you've come up to the microphone, state your name and where you live. And we ask that you don't repeat things that people have said before you, otherwise we'll be here all day. There are any questions? No. Okay. Okay. This evening we have two cases. We have case 32, 2024, 3.4 E.W.A. flower avenue. Are the applicants present? Yes. Any voices to be heard? Any opposition? So voices to be heard? Yes. Next. We have case 33, 2024, 52, Federal Avenue, any of the applicants present, any oppositions or voices to be heard. So the first case is 32, 2024, 3.43, flower abitum. I'm going to have to go back. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Thank you. Good evening. Members of the board. My name is David Locker of the Law from Locker Law. Ten down time to your show. I have the privilege of being back before this board and to present this evening on behalf of this project at 343 Mayflower Avenue. I am here and would like to introduce with us this evening my client Robert and Salotti who is the developer. And we also have our very talented and creative architect, Lucio Gale. He's here and we have two other members of the development team with us. This project here, I want the board to be aware, is really the product of many, many months of discussion with the buildings department and reworking, reworking with the commissioner, the building reviewer, the design has gone through multiple iterations, including exactly where and how to cite this structure on the property, so as to bring this development as close to as a bright, as possible, and minimize the number of variances that would be required. What's also very important for you to understand minimize the number of variations that would be required. What's also very important for you to understand from the beginning is that toward that end, the footprint of this building and the size of this building are entirely as of right on this property. We don't have any of the usual variances that you get at this board, and I've been here myself with some of them. We don't have any frontage issue. We don't have any setback issue, not front, not side, not rear. We don't have any issue with number of parking spaces or impervious surface area building height. None of those things. We do have one variance for floor area ratio that is diminished by the usual standards of the buildings department and I believe this board the code specification is 0.5 FAR and this project calculates up to 0.5 4.7 so hopefully that's not the one that we really have to be the most concerned with. I'm going to call up Mr. Delayow in a moment to review the project in greater detail, but I would like to just review now just the aerial site plan so that you can see what we have here. So this part here in the white area, in the area, the project area where I may flower avenue were all the way at the farthest end of may flower avenue toward Pellum. This is Pellumdale wrote over here. The building that we're proposing is three stories. Again, Mr. Delayer, we're describing greater detail, but it's set as you see right in the middle of the project site. What's there now is as indicated by this, there is a house, there is a house with an extensive paved area behind it, parking area, and then on the other side there's another house. And then the main thing that we want to point out is that directly across the street at 340 Mayflower Avenue also that's a 10-glenn car avenue that is a multiple dwelling apartment structure that has 24 units occupying the entire site between our property and Palombe de la Avenue, our two multifamily structures, combined development of 32 units. So we have 32 units over here. We have 24 units over here directly across the street from the site. And on this corner at one going car avenue, we have another bigger structure, bigger building that has 52 units. So again, we are not pioneers in multiple dwelling was built in 1969, and the 345 Mayflower over to Palomade, 11, was built all the way back in 1956. So this is not an area where there has not been any multiple developments. The second slide that I want to, this is our site plan and you also have the zoning schedule. So the first thing to notice is that this whole project area crosses over two zoning classifications. RMF 0.5 and RMF, I'm sorry, R2-7.0, 7.0, the RMF-5 and the R2-7.0. And again, with all the consideration giving to minimizing the number of variances to be requested, you will see in the site plan that no part of any construction is planned to be built on the R27 property. Eventually the locks will be merged, but that's the plan. But the where this project is situated where the structure is situated, no part of it is situated in the R27. The structure contains a significant parking garage under the dwelling units and then we have open parking on the other side closer to the side closer to Palombella having where the other multiple dwelling structures are located. But what we ask you to know is the entire corridor here, this entire corridor and the R27, which has a house which will be demolished in a cell that paved surface that you saw from the aerial, this is going to be open green lawn the entire corridor from front to back all green lawn. And then behind the structure from end to end 200 foot width of the site also more green open lawn space. Very significant. It's really nothing like it. And then if you would just look on your the zoning schedule that's on this cyclone, the zoning schedule here You will see that we have 200 feet of frontage compared to the 70 feet required in an RMS 0.5 The last size is 50,778 feet compared to 7,000 in the RMS 0.5 the building footprint is only 9,260 feet on a lot size of 50,778 feet. We have 62 feet 11 inches of rear yard setback compared to the 30 foot minimum 62 feet more than double. We have 42 feet of front yard. Again more than double compared to the 20 foot code requirement. We have 50 feet on one side and 78 feet of side yard compared to the minimum of 8 and the combined side yards are 128 feet compared to 20. And we have 52 parking spaces of which only 44 are required again and half of those are hidden in an underground garage. So what's the significant area that we have here? Actually, I think I have to come back to this. I'd like to have Mr. Delay will not describe the project and then I'll come back to the other variants of the Lot area per clone. I'm just sitting right here. This is not working. This is talking to you. Oh boy. You know. This is talking to you. This is talking to you. This is talking to you. Hmm. Did you win that? Yeah. This is talking to you. This is talking to you. This is talking to you. This is talking to you. This is talking to you. Good evening. My name is Lou DeLio. Together with Stephanie DeLio, we're principals of Studio Rye Architects and we're the architects for the project. The project, before you today involves a creation of a new residential building that's in three floors where you're in an underground parking garage. The property is 50,000 square feet, so 50,000 7708 square feet located on Mayflower Avenue. The property presently has four separate plots which will be combined into one plot at the end. The proposed building which has a compact footprint of approximately 10,000 square feet sitting on the ground consisting of a ground level entrance lobby with a mailroom and waiting area for the three-story 26 unit apartment building consisting mostly of one and two bedroom units. The project will have 52 parking spaces, 27 exterior spaces which will be located. Let's see. So this is our site plan. The 27 parkest spaces that are located outside of the building, up to the west side of the building, on the proposed building. This is an existing apartment building. You can see that line, the outline of the line there, and this is our building here. So, nestled between these two buildings is the outdoor parking spaces. The indoor parking spaces spaces which is access from Mayflower Avenue is under the building and that houses approximately 25 spaces. There was mentioned before we're exceeding the required parking area for you for parking spaces. The design intent of the building is to build a modern energy efficient building so sensitively responding to its immediate context and scale. By implementing attractive and timeless details in the cure, such as Brexit, no one in less, by orienting the building north to south. This is north, this is south. Dr. South, in that one, reduced, we believe the impact, the visual impact, that it has both on Mayflower Avenue, because this is 60 feet, and then on the rear yard, which is also the slender section of the building, which is 62 feet. As there was mentioned before, our building is set back more than the required, we have a a large area of green space right here all around the building itself. The project, the project will use sustainable building design practices, which will include environmentally conscious building methods using green buildings and other sustainable features. The building will be a fireproof building constructed using concrete and steel, makes and read glass and stone, adding to its firmness and timeless character. The building setbacks, as I mentioned before, are greater than the minimum required. So on the east side, we have 50 feet. The rear yard is 64 feet, four inches. The front yard is 45 feet, as opposed to 20 required. And the west side, we have 66. 78 feet, and that's where the park is located. And it's located. We have landscaping buffers around the whole entire park and we expect to develop and landscape the entire site itself. We started putting some trees in the front. It does not have landscape plan but we proposed to landscape along the perimeter of the property. The building has 50% required parking spaces underground and the rest of the nestled between the two buildings between the existing apartment building on the west side and our buildings, as I mentioned before. The building's compact footprint in minimal exterior parking area have been shaped to yield the most green space possible around its perimeter, creating an environmentally conscious development. And this is one of the tasks that we gave ourselves to try to create the smallest footprint possible to leave as much green as possible around the whole site. We could have had, at a lesser expense, more parking area, more parking on the open surface than we chose to put it under the building to, again, leave more green space, both the tenants and the progenitor of the property. That's the official explanation. Thank you. We should hold this foundation. Okay. So, you have my statement of principle points. I don't think I need to review all of them in some because I know that when you do a resolution, you have to come for all of them. So I'll just run through it without reading it all, just kind of the headaches. No undesirable change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood and no detriment in nearby properties will be created by the granting of the variances. I know there are people in the room who have a different view of general and the back of the property, but we're talking about the neighborhood. The Mayflower Avenue site, which has all of those multiple dwelling structures. And again, we have huge buffers between the back of the structure and open law and going back to the general and properties. But in terms of the character, the neighborhood and the Mayflower Avenue, there was no change from what's there. There is no feasible method for the applicant to pursue the requested benefit other than the variances here. We cannot construct an economically viable number of units without this design here and again as it was explained the way it was cited and so the narrow side facing back in front. This is the only way for that to be done. The area variances, this is the main one, are not substantial. So on the FAR, certainly that's diminished. It would be disingenuous to say that the land area per dwelling unit is not substantial, but that is actually the, that's the discrepancy that exists in this RMF zoning classification with that particular measure. So the first of all, from an historic perspective, the time this property was acquired, the lot area per dwelling unit was 25 hundreds square feet. It was up zone as you're well aware. Many parts of Newarkshire were up zone over the years. There were property owners who were detrimentally affected. The own property never developed it. And then later when they sought to develop it, there were upsuming criteria. So this current, the original light area for dwelling in was 2500 square feet raised to 3500 square feet, which increases the significance of that particular variance. But it is so it's greater than what it would have been in the past. But here really is where the conflict is intractable between the RMF0.5 zone and all of the rest of the dimensional requirements, including the FAR, because as we've heard already, the footprint of this building and the three story height of this building are entirely to code. The accommodation for parking spaces, and I don't mean to be repetitive, but it's how the whole thing fits together. The accommodation the parking spaces for multiple dwelling structures is entirely to code. The FAR for all intents and purposes, for the 0, 0, 4, 7 is to code. So which means that this property cannot be used for anywhere near its full potential based on the lot size and based on all of the other dimensions that we've talked about except for this variance on the lot area of the dwelling unit. And that's really the one variance that's supposed to have to come in for more. Perhaps if there were some kind of totally different project that could have been conceived here that maybe would have been townhouses but then they would have been spread out in order to meet the light area. They would have been spread out entirely through the entire site. We wouldn't have had the green space. We would have had much more impervious surface with driveways and to individual units and getting back to every part of the site. So, and that actually would be a different character of the neighborhood because this character has the one family houses behind it and the other parts of Mayflower, but then we have those multiple units next to it and across the street. So in order to comply fully with this requirement, if you were to go right to code and then we wouldn't be here at all, then there is a significantly reduced number of units. But again, it wouldn't change the three-story height, wouldn't change the mass of the building, wouldn't change any of the dimensions, it would just be fewer units within that box. And then those units would be bigger. Those can, the only ones that comply with units per lot area, those units would have to be much bigger than any apartments in New Rochelle, which then in turn would lead to more families that the Mr. Blayow didn't mention the breakdown of the units, but you have it there. I think there's only one or three bedroom, right? In the whole complex, only one, three bedroom unit. And so the rest are one, but there's some studios. So if we were to try to do this in compliance, which just is not a cannot be feasible, to do this project, then there would be, much bigger units would be more attractive. The bigger families, more school children, all of the things that we have talked about before. Can you get me the... No, no. Yeah, well, you can't. Yeah, we go back to the to the cyclan again. have exactly four houses that have but this property and remember they're set back 60 almost 70 feet plus their own rear yard so again it's not anywhere close. There are four properties we know for a fact that two of the properties that have but, the owners actually support this project. And then one of the properties, there is just a corner that a buck's up here. I think it's this property that the buck's this corner. Well, but this is now that's paid now. This is going to be a full open lawn, a complete view corridor and no construction and no paved surfaces at all on this one. And then this is a double lot. And then we have this house in this house. And then this house has a piece of land at a once. But again, basically, it cannot be constructed any other way. There are really only three houses that are affected. And to just complete the review of the other points, it doesn't have an adverse effect, the impact on the fiscal or environmental conditions in the neighborhood again because we have multiple dwellings there already and this will be built sustainably and will increase the amount of green open space from what's there and the difficulties in that stuff create particularly as the zoning classification was increased as that is that RM-015 was stepped up from 25 to 3500. So I think that is, as complete as we can open with, and happy to take all of us. Happy to take any questions that you're never familiar with. He's just a good question. You've calculations. You've had 50,778 square feet. That's included in the lot that's in the R2 zone. Correct. Sorry, would you have a question? The lot that you're showing on your Zoni chart, you say the lot size is 50,778 square tire and a sandwich. That excludes the R2 zone line. Yes. So really, the law of port porting my calculation to serve is 32,000 roughly is in the RMS 0.5. We look at this together with the plan examiner and we look at the entire plot because nothing is going to be built in that extra 50 foot by 200 foot law. So it's thrown into into the overall coverage. The setbacks are respected for the larger zone, but that existing zone it's just left green and nothing can be built there. It's not like a separate lot, does somebody else can build something? So they allow you to use the density reform for the R2 zone. Yes, good. And there is a plane to merge them, right? Yeah. Forever. I think I mentioned that the federal line school doesn't change the zone. No, it'll be in the R&F. I mean, the bulk of the project, again, is in the R&F and it doesn't change the zone line, which is the version of the law. A lot of these slip. A zone that in the mental medicine to be here, and I just like to thank Household. This online remade, as it is, just a lot to emerge. Right, but you're explaining the entire densities, being all in the armament, zero point five zone, with part of it is in the artusum, with building a point a lot of use at. Right. That's a relation. Part of that, or two. I'm sorry. Does anyone on the board have any other questions? At this time, no. Okay. Do we want to hear from anybody who have opposition? Okay. Does anyone have any other questions? This time, no. Okay, do we want to hear from anybody have opposition? I actually want to speak and support the project is that okay? Sure my name is Matthew Hartigree That's H-A-R-D, I-G-R-E. I'm the one at 167th Center Avenue. C-E and Jari. So first, thank you all for having me here. When I was five years old, my mother left a note on the fridge in our little house in Corpus Christi, Texas, telling my father that he was taking me to Houston, we were moving to a summer. The savings and loan crisis had just happened. There was no economic opportunity in Corpus Christi. So I lived with my grandparents for a year and a really nice new residential neighborhood development built more than the city. It was great and it was nicely with my grandparents for a year. It didn't seem weird to me but that time so that my parents could find a Northeastern and you'd find a place to live and thankfully in that development and that new development community they had and they had the good news and that new development community, they had exactly good news. And that was because they got a tax worth. The developers got a big tax rate to do it. Also provided housing for people who actually worked in that community, because most people there weren't actually in Houston. So that's where I lived. Many of my friends lived in those apartments with me. Many of my other friends lived in those very nice houses. And being raised in that community allowed me access to amazing schools that I work at in South Texas. It allowed me access to peers who viewed college as an expectation and not an exception, which is what it was like in the neighborhood where I grew up, and I'm just saying Texas. I had a great childhood, I did really well in school. I did pretty well in school. I did a lot of AP classes that were offered, none of them at well, but maybe the other ones. I had to say that I was the first in my family to go to a four-year university. I'm out living in New Rochelle. I live in a multi-family unit, I had a co-op building downtown actually with the Paul Mockersville, Weird Nina. Yeah, you did a great job with it. It's wonderful. My daughter and my wife, you know, are neighbors. It's safe. All of my neighbors know my daughter. It's a really great place to live. And I can access to schools here in New York Shell, which are wonderful. My daughter actually goes to Daniel Boster Elementary, which is right here by this branch development. And she's actually part of the Magnus program, so she goes to the studio arts facility there. So I have to say I was a little confused. When I got a letter from other parents, asking if I would sign a petition to oppose this government. When I hear fellow parents talk about how a small apartment building of 26 units started to change the character of the neighborhood and their safety and peace, I wonder what they must think of me and my daughter and my family who also live in an apartment. If they do wonder if they realize that the language that they're using in their petition is the same language that's been used historically to keep marginalized people out of neighborhoods in schools like this, including in New Yorkshire. Even worse, I was disappointed that they were trying to use my daughter's school as an excuse to keep people out. What's your elementary school is losing enrollment? It needs developments like this in order to keep it rolling up. And so, to look, I think there are reasonable concerns about flooding and traffic, and I think that all needs to be considered by the board. But if you believe in America as my end of opportunity, as I do, you have to decide what the costs are of restricting those blessings from other people. I know many of the parents here are there. Good people. Yeah, there are good people. And I hope that they will consider to look past their own lawns and realize that a small 26-unit apartment building is not the end of a community, but a chance to welcome all people to it. Thank you. Thank you. I knew some mad days I was in nine, John Olin and Rose, my wife, Sarah and her two young children. I'll just be trying to use this possible. But on behalf of our neighbors, I'm making our Avenue, John Alden, who had heard Lawrence plays in one car by the conceiving. We're all here behind me. We're here today to express our strong opposition to this case. As concerned residents within the affected area, we believe this project will negatively impact the surrounding community, environment, the value of our homes, the overall quality of life in our neighborhoods. We respectfully urge the zoning board to carefully consider these concerns to be for creating a solution. Not only is the developer seeking to build a larger structure than what is about the zoning ordinance but the proposed 1,953 square-footed area occurred well, and was almost 50% or less, but the existing requirements of 3500 square feet, which will enable the developer to put in almost double the amount of units. By our calculations, the number of units legally allowed to build our 14 plus ones of 15, which are clearly designed to maximise the amount of units of the property and increase products. As Mr. Walker said, this is already densely populated area. Just because there's density here at the park, it doesn't mean you can put another one in the back. As he said, there are 52 units in Glencar, 24 May Bargardons, 32 in these, we call them the motel units, the important, I'm not sure who the four bearers were on the zoning board in 1952, who did that this much. Quite the answer. And there are three two family homes here, money are backyards. There's a lot on John L. D. Road. This will bring metal and increased traffic in an already busy area. During the rush hour here on Helen Bell, I would encourage anybody to come out in the morning or in the evening, coming from Chester Parking County, or coming from R.A. Exant, and John Alder Road. It is packed back. So when we go to drive our kids to school, it's very dangerous for us to make a left turn. Or to make a right turn on the hot to take us right away to go there. We're also concerned about the safety. We have closer to two dozen school-eased children on John Alden, Woodford and Wors. We're very tight in the community, as you can see. We often nice weathered walk, the case at Annowester, on Interest, but we're near here for talking about it. So we walked out at John Alden on the Palmdale, which doesn't have sidewalks in New York, Shell, South. We had to cross Palmdale, we crossed over to Mayfly, and cross here to walk through the woods back here. I'd also encourage Mr. Lackard and Mr. Anzalade to come over tonight and you will see cars parked from person every spot overnight parking. So the idea that people are going to safely enter and exit is property without a traffic light. That was something that caused it, you know, an increase in traffic accidents. The development also increased the noise from the host Routap here. Disturbing our peaceful community, we already feel a lot of noise from the energies of our partners. Ungeneral. Routap area will look directly to the TANCER to become, sorry, speed up, look directly to the yards of many on John Lowe. If a lab, this opens up the possibility of other developers buying a similar process of land to bring in extra units, thus greeting and cascading negative effect on traffic, saving the strain on movement of the structure, privacy and the value of our homes. We respectfully request the zoning board for Jackson's Highnesses and the developer of Seminar Bites Planes, or Smaller Bites, which goes to traffic study, the shadow study, the environmental study. And I think we submitted a letter to the city of Nandor as well, which I would like to see signed by basically all of our names. So Nandor would be able to do two things on there. And so forth as well. I appreciate your time. Thank you. Thank you. Good evening. My name is William and my sister's here is well, I didn't think I was going to live in 714. Hell in the Aluminium was my brother and my niece. So where the house is right here, where it says 3.45, me sitting on the back end of that apartment complex. Or I don't think it's a apartment complex. I think it's like town homes or something, but it's not an apartment complex. So this construction takes away the beauty of the area. The sign line, the openness, just for money. I didn't move here to see the same thing happened that occurred in the area. The sign line, the openness just for money, I didn't move here to see the same thing happened that occurred in the Bronx. The Bronx area had beautiful homes and one with five ones that houses were taken away in turn into apartments like buildings replacing one family homes with six or nine different apartments or buildings. In 2010 we moved from the Bronx to Newer Chef. We chose this area because it was surrounded by homes and not apartment buildings like the Bronx. This new development will take away our skyline and our privacy. If I wanted to be surrounded by tall buildings, I would have stayed in the Bronx and paid 6,000 in-tacted and not over $20,000 in-tacted. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We showed you everything because it was surrounded by homes in that tall building. Ad House allows us to have privacy when I'm poor. There's no development with three stories in a rooftop, throughout this day. Our court was our century during COVID-19. We were able to sit on the court without moving out privacy, watching the ad look and enjoying the neighborhood, who were able to go and walk and look at the beautiful homes in Lansk. The new building will contain at least 26 apartments, add more people to the area and increase the noise. That's where we're looking over 50 people being added to this neighborhood. The area will change to make up this area, and my turn people off looking at that and I was just wanting to decide to sell it, because the view of a four-story building was for rooftop. We love the serenity of the area and this building threatens it. It will change the house that I'm still paying on mortgage loan, that I was in static approaches in 2010. So I oppose disconstruction. Thank you. Thank you. Applause. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, man. Thank you, the opportunity to speak. I'm here in my wife. I'm right in my Williams. We owned a property at 327 Mayflower Avenue, which is directly adjacent to our next to this development. And I know that in this and the developers and developers, they were mentioning all of their areas. And we were right there and it seemed that I haven't heard any comment or anything in respect to three to seven Mayflower. I totally agree to that and all of my fellow homeowners in the area and what they have said and totally support them, of course, object to this. But from a personal perspective, in terms of, was there a shadow study done because if you, in terms of the buildings, it will cast a shadow that will prevent sunlight on the existing two families, which is my property, 3, 2, 7. It's a two family dwelling. I mean my wife live upstairs, my daughter or husband, and four kids live down this. So I also have a concern, which has been expressed in that regard. The other thing is the development runs directly on the property line of another architect or a tree to seven avenue creating a wall without any buffers. For my part, a buffer zone will definitely be necessary. Also the development set back creates inconsistency with adjacent properties including tree to seven. Also, when an environmental impact statement be available for the community's input, those are some of the things that I would like to outline. My last comment is that yes, I mean, as we've mentioned that there were other multifamily, I'm not going to use the R, what I'm trying to do. And, but if you look at what is the current and new shell in terms of one family and two families, There being overcome by these multifamily, dwell at anything that is important that are representative at all levels of government in New Zealand, state, the county or whatever. Be aware of this, because that's what is happening to people who have invested in single family and two family in rallies. We're being pushed out and being overwhelmed. Thank you. Does anybody else wish to be here? Hello my name is Jennifer Chang and I live at 13 Lawrence Place. I have to be others who also have mentioned gay bioreal Natural Study, the projector, in particular I want to talk about the quality issues. The city is already well aware that John Odenfield and surrounding areas are fully deployed and have instituted a multi-year plan to mitigate the flooding within the area. I personally flooded during Hurricane Ida and every time you have heavy rain or heavy rain, my yard and my basement blood, that's the multiple of my neighbors. Even the other day I'm Thanksgiving with that heavy rain, you should see a storm drain on the flower, which I know will be simply done, but they were already overwhelmed. So I would be very curious to see, what is the impact in the flooding perspective? Because you're already introducing an development that potentially exacerbates the flooding that is in this area that we already know is a problem. Thank you. My name is Eugene Romeo. I'm the 17-month-old place nurse chef. I'm in a house 45 years. I grew up on ten white stone plates which is the street right around the corner from this project. First of all, the apartment buildings are across the street, but beautiful and put them up. I was there, I saw them, and look at them. We pop it every day, we smile, it's just, and it's a project. The ones on the corner are all section 8. Right. We have a problem with people bringing it to our cars, bringing it to our homes. We have a flood of the area, especially John Olden and Lawrence. The water comes in, it's incredible. Roof top, we can hear music from City Island when they have their parties in the summer. What's going to happen with somebody as a birthday party? And there's 50 people on top of some group. And it's a fair with our privacy. And our taxes, but in the down, is he gonna get an email out of this? Is he gonna get a rebate like they did or everybody in their shop? Do you spoke about schools? 86 hundred units built in their shop. There's gonna be enough kids to spread them all around Don't worry about it. Dang well still be full. Thank you Hey, no, I'm looking for a little property that just sits in the parking lot that they found over here. I have a lot of kids from Maple in my backyard. So everyone knows it. Everyone sees it. You know, it's spawned. They're away from the street. Now you can look. Parking a lot, 10 feet from the side of my house, and you put in rooftop view for what people who's coming in. Who knows? They all get perfect views of my children, of the children from the neighborhood. So that's really my main concern. Thank you. I just want to try to carry on with Williams. I live at 3.27 in the main power where we will be riding the J-SIMtomar Catholic. I have to tell you the traffic born made out of these three tickets. By daughter, she passes over, I mean my granddaughter passes over the street, she has to wait. There's so much traffic coming. She has to actually dark across the street to get hold of it. I'm sorry, man. There's no development. I mean, even though you have underground parties, most people don't actually do what they want to pop on the street. There's no room for it. And the traffic, I would have a traffic in the children because crossing Mayflower is for minutes right now. And I am just thinking how much is it right now? What a good one, yes. Thank you. Thank you. Anyone else like to be here? Uh, maybe I should say something. Oh, ma'am. The members of the squad have the biggest possibility. So can you please say anything? The members of my name is Sylvia Solari, I live on 40 John Martin Road. The members of the squad have a great responsibility. So can you please say a few things? The members of my name is Sylvia Solari, I live on 40 John over the moon. The members of the squad have a great responsibility, a great burden on yourselves by taking this job. Your job is to uphold the law of uphold the zoning. You will not hear it to change the zoning. To give variances, yeah, maybe a small amount of person wants to do a slight, but this is a large variance, as was pointed out, he wants to construct 27 units and part of that 50,700 is in an R2 zone. It's not even in a fully family zone. There's a big difference between 15 units, which is allowed to under the law and 27 units. You have to search yourselves. You need to do the right thing and uphold the law. You don't worry about friends, you don't worry about, you know, well, business associates are gonna be calling me and they're gonna be getting pressure on me. There's going to be a lot of pressure on you, yes. But your main goal and your main responsibility is to stand up and uphold the zoning code. The way it has been written, it was written for a reason. It was a purpose for it at the time. All right? And you need to do that. Thank you. Applause. Thank you. Applause. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Would anyone else like to be here? Would the applicant like to respond? Did you want to see some comments? This is what I was going to say. And I'm just going to see if that now. Good evening. My name is Ben Campbell. I want to say thank you to my neighbors because some of my relatives for me. I don't have the ear remarks, but I would like to oppose the project. As was earlier stated, the traffic on the flower is horrendous. And also I would ask that you consider doing this study, looking at the time on police reports of the areas on Lincoln. There's a parking on Lincoln. And so we have residents that park on the flower. So there's a parking on the flower for those who own property on the flower. So I would ask you to consider and we'll be able to lot of development in your shell. I'm I grew up in your shell lifelong resident and I've watched the city of all I see all the new buildings, but I ask you to think about those who have invested for homes and the residential section of New Yorkshire that you would keep the integrity of our community in that way. And again, please look at the data, what respects to one enforcement in the area where the apartments are. Again, people speed up and down, may flower. We, something Mike Dwinner was out walking the dog. And someone who lived on Glenhardt decided they wanted to have a staring contest where I crossed the street and it wasn't for my neighbor who called me This person just randomly jumped in front of my daughter's face and asked her what he was looking at And so again, we have a lot of things going on in the shop and I would just ask you to consider for my neighbors who have children. Please consider the children, consider what brain multiple buildings will do to our city and to our neighborhood. Thank you. Good evening. My name is Wei Yuan. I live in 35, John Maldon. That's my husband Yan here. We just moved to this house last summer and we've been enjoying the neighborhood. A lot of my nice neighbors have expressed their concerns and that's also my concern. By the way, I don't agree that we're the house. Keep going. This one? To the left. Keep going. No more to the left. Let's go. That's much more. Much more. The rest of the house is more. Does the Paul this last? That's right. Yes. He's got more. He's got more. That's right. That's right. That was my set of strokes. We'll take your word for you. That's 35 junk old and we moved into that house. We didn't receive any letter regarding any of this going on. We didn't know about this hearing tonight. If it weren't for my nice neighbors. And I do agree that we are not going to be affected just because we're there. In fact, I measured on Google Map. I think we are around maybe 30 or 40 feet, definitely within 150, but we didn't receive any letters. So I am now prepared. My neighbors have expressed the concerns, but if I were to have more time receive the letters, I may be able to fully assess the impact, but I can't. So I just wanted to express that. Plus, I could see the yellow house from my main bathroom and my living room and almost all of the room on that side. So I don't think we're not going to be affected if there's going to be a building there. Thank you. With the applicant lights, you respond. So thank you to all the people who have come to express their views and not unexpected. The main thing that I want to address that several people have mentioned and is this board well-known. Many of the concerns that are expressed here are site plan approvals from the planning board, environmental, the civic locations, traffic parking, shadows. I don't know if the shadows is the mission of the three story building and we have other three story buildings there. But again, not to minimize any of other concerns that have been expressed But before long before this building would ever get built The requirement after this board At some point if this board grants a variance or a variance with some condition Then we have to go to the planning board. There's another process. Yes, you have to address us. I'm sorry, it makes a perfect sense. But you know the answer, they don't. So that's what I got. I'll ask for that. Anyway, so as we know and as council can confer, there is a planning board process. So all of these issues that have been, not all of many of the issues that have been raised here are not within your purview this evening. Certainly in the consideration of variances, but traffic and flooding and shadows and all of those things we know are the pur view of the planning board. I think, again, just, I mean, and as people have kind of tossed out one point I heard referred to as a four story building, we just ask you to keep in mind the very limited scope of what has been proposed here, not that you will forget, but just because, and I think so when I'll say built up right against the other property, well we have again, what's here now with this paved area that's next to the property next door, that's all again, one more time on the site plan is gonna be all green space. I mean, there is a tremendous amount of green space. I said the parking lot. Sorry, parking lot was my property. The parking lot. I mean, there is a tremendous amount of green. I think there was a comment about the property. The, the, the, there is a tremendous amount of green space that won't be built time when it's open long. You don't have that now, we're actually adding. And then I think the final part of it is that the design of this building, the fits, the finishes, all of the concept of it is specifically to avoid what you have there now. I mean, this is an improvement way in excess of all of the other buildings that are there now, including the old houses that are there on Make-Lower that would be replaced by this structure. And it is an RMF zone that allows multifamily construction. I can understand how people would rather not have multifamily construction. We can't compare what's going on here with what's in downtown New Rochelle. This is three-story, very, very limited scope. And it can be developed. And it won't be left as just the three ounces there there. And I guess the last thing I think there was a comment about the roof top. I think that it's a fair consideration. But I think there can be restricted hours. I mean, there are things that can be done. Again, as part of planning site plan review, there can be restrictions. I mean, we have ordinances in New Rochelle for noise, for hours of the day and hours of everything else. And I guess the last thing is that you cannot hold against this, ask you, not telling you, but asking you. Not to hold against this developer. Whatever the other conditions are on Glencar, I mean some of the other residents there, whether it's Section 8, we're trying to build a building that is with substantially different construction. There are no brick-faced walls there. I mean, this is in terms of visually an enhancement and visually with all of the green space there. And I think that we can reach some accommodation on the use of the rooftop. I mean, for that matter, and you well know that we have more than enough area in the back of this area that they could have put in a pool and they didn't do that. There's more than enough setback in the rear to get the 20 foot requirement first when they didn't do that. Again, they're trying to be neighbors. They're trying to keep it within the context of the developer, his own these properties for the number of years. And so we think that this is an enhancement that will be the required number of affordable units, which is a consideration in the reshell. We talk all the time about needing additional housing. People don't want to live downtown, again, afford to live downtown. So that's I think the response to the concerns that were made and they will be interested in the planning. Thank you. Thank you. Anyone have any comments or questions? Thank you. So I mean, I appreciate the developer a lot of the green area that you guys are considering and also the designing of the property. My concern is really this is over populated area and my adding a large building to this area is actually going to create a detriment to all the neighbors in that part of the town. Applause. And that is one of our duties to look out before we grant the variance is to look out in some of the different points. And there are many other points that I think are actually well affect some of the other people this neighborhood. But I think those who are like too many concern and safety is not a concern. I drive through that area and is a lot of traffic, especially through the rush hour. And this is just going to make things worse in what they are. Okay. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you. Thank you. I'd like to ask you a question of the first gentleman who spoke, who conducted charge. If I could, there conducted charge, if that's something. There would seem to be that based on our requirements, which we do take our jobs very seriously, we all have taken it oath to sit up here. We've taken it oath, hand on the Bible, taken it oath. We're all residents of New Yorkshire, and none of us are teenagers. We take this responsibility very seriously. So I respect what you say. I'm almost offended by what you say, but I want to be clear that we do take this responsibility very seriously. My question to you, so, and perhaps it's to your neighbors as well. It would seem that the height of the building is kosher and the size of the building fits all of this requirements at the kosher. The thing that is where we seem to apart company is that they would like to build 26 units where 14 units is really based on Mr. Bougale which is the band for us this morning and our initial meeting. that we're 14 units is really based on Mr. Boudale and to the band for us this morning at our initial meeting. Would you personally, as well as your neighbors, feel differently if this building had 14 units in it instead of 26 units? Would that make a very big difference to all of you because the building will be there. This building is the same side and it happens to not be an unattractive building without a dad. It's an attractive building. We can't speak to crime in the neighborhood right here. We all live in New Rochelle. We all get flooded. We all have some bumps. We can't address that here specifically, but if the only tipping point is the difference between 14 and 26 units, is that meaningful to all of you? I can feel it in front of the building. You have to come up to the wall right now if you're open and fronted, I'm sorry, the building. You can't. You have to come up to the hallmark. If you're going to speak. No, I've got two minutes to say. We'll all know what's going on. I'm a trustee. I'm going to say, remember, could you come up and respond if you're a graph to not be going to have everybody what I want to slide into? And if I can just turn onto what Carla has said, What Carla said we're talking about 14 or 15 units as a right which would then in turn be larger with more bedrooms So not necessarily less people or just less units So I mean if we're talking about density and crowdedness and number of cars The three-bedroom or one bedroom you may end up the same number of people. I mean, we discussed this as a block and we think that less unions would be, is there a restriction? Can I ask so 14 units could it be 14, 3 bedrooms? Could it be whatever? The requirements are based on the number of units. It's a very cool 7.6. That's a very cool 7.6. Maybe, though. So the one I heard from Vulling is for unit, not necessarily for bedroom. Parking is based on the number of units. So if they make bigger apartments with more bedrooms, the parking doesn't make a change. But they already have more parking. Yeah, they have more parking. I don't think they gave the broke down break down of how many units you have. But I know in your presentation, I don't know if you had any. So there was one three federal. Oh, if you get another opportunity to talk, maybe you want to. Can provide that to everyone here, because the sharing is not always a little bit more. And I also think it's important. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I mean, I think we wouldn't. Yeah, I've discussed that. I'm really going to go that way. Can everyone keep it down please? Thank you. Certainly discuss this. You know, it's blocking the neighborhood. Anything that can limit. I mean, it's just again, my last time I made it, just the vitality of all those cars coming on that property, with every spot and perishing on me, thought to come out and look, it's the idea of night and night. So I think it's important for you and for everyone here. I know that's how you interpret it. Right. Just, and I'm not really one of them at all. I have young children as well. And I live in a place where the summer people think it's a thoroughfare. So I get it. But I think it's important as David pointed out to understand what we have jurisdictions decide and what is before us. And that is the variance with respect to the number of units and the other determinants variance that they're seeking. That's it. The traffic issues, the environmental issues, things like that. That's all the planning board. We'll show up for the plan this morning to say. We'll show up for that. So this project, regardless of how this board votes, this project isn't greenlit from our after-a-day leave here today, if this board votes in favor. There's many other steps that have to be followed before you know, they break ground and start the discussion. No, I mean, the board needs to tell everybody. We have questions. We have questions. Sorry. I have a question. I guess the other stuff is the way I can. So what's the concept of the rooftop? Which I think is great. I don't know if we have room towers. It was the idea really to limit the activity on the ground to keep it to keep all the proper from the neighbors. It was a nice cool. That's one of the ideas. But we also control the size of that. The hours to be controlled. The distance away from the property line really has to be focused on that, because we're 50, 60, 70 feet away from the neighbors. But that's not it's something that's very popular today to do with that uses, but we can control it. We can reduce it, reduce the size. Put down 10 people maximum occupancy or we can control that. But all that movement is going to move to the ground and it will render closer to the property mines, closer to the other people. So it's a plus or minus that made any case. Right. And the height of the building is three stories. That's what the bill allows. The breakdown of the unices that was asked before, we have 12 one bedrooms, 13 two bedrooms and one three bedrooms. So if this was the number of units, whatever, it required to be 15, the same exact footprint can exist if the client chooses to build that. We will have 15 three bedroom units. The parking actually works. We've checked that before. It's just going to be bigger apartments. And so you're not reducing the size of the building. You're not reducing the size of the impact of the building in the area. As far as shadow, the building is the center of the property. It would have to be the January and the sun, to cast that huge shadow. 50 feet, the building's only 34 feet high. It's never going to reach the neighbors. Sound of the roof, absolutely, it's a second-sirmed, we can work with that. We definitely do not want our building looking into anybody else's property or go that, but landscaping around the perimeter. We already studied with some buffers around the parking. You will not be able to see the parking lot the way we have it. And if there is parking now along the street, we're asking for two car cuts. I mean, now there's three or four car cuts because of the houses. We're asking for two car cuts and maybe the city can control who parks there. That's part of what's wider than that, I mean. Which wider than the visual home car cuts, of course. Yes, it's true. And again, we're trying really hard to not put all the cars out of them on the perimeter in turn. Can't make us much green space as possible to be very environmentally conscious of this. It's much more better at one small footprint that goes vertically than 14 houses over the upper rim or duplexes. If we can for a lot to do two story attach homes, we'll be within 20 feet of the property. Well, in multiple primaries, and the whole center of the space will be one giant part. It's not really good environmentally conscious development to do that. This small footprint, you know, with little all pipes and then both, it's the most environmentally friendly way to attack these kind of problems. And we are next to a parking lot. We are. This is the edge of that zone. If they didn't want this to happen, really, sort of changed to another zone, I guess. Which is where I sit with this. Yeah, where I'm going to go on his own, I guess. Which is what I've brought. I said with this, yeah, where I was going to go next and lose the locker. I think the great presentation and I understand you're pointing this whole thing to really give the fact that the density of this building fits on this property with no problem. And it's really just a lot under it, pretty well in the United States. It's an issue with still leaves with the substantial amount of variance that you're asking here, which I just, I just can't accept at this point. So historically when my client purchased the property, it was 25 on the square feet. I mean, I was going back as an R3V, so I started out. Which is 20 units, so it would have been at that time, you know, the other buildings would have built on the back zone. Right. You still would have been like that time, you know, the other buildings would have built on the gas zone. Right. You still would have been in the variance. Yeah, of course. Of course, you wouldn't have been in the variance. But it's a 50% to 6%. It broke population variance, which it's pretty substantial again. You know, this is only what members were tasked with writing the minimal requirements. Sure. And that's not that mental. It's a tough job. Just like that. So the board members here. Anyone else? I'd like to. I think you're going to get this for some discussion. OK. Would you like to proceed with a vote, or would you like to take another look at the variance that you're requesting? I mean we want to hold up. Well you'd have to you'd have to adjourn and come back. You can confer with it. Yeah. I think for me, I'd like to, you've heard the concerns of the neighbors. I'd like to see if there's any way that maybe you can address some of these concerns about the noise, about the rooftop and how maybe privacy can be built and you talk a little bit about landscaping, but maybe we could hear some of these tells about that. And as Bob said, we'd like to be asked to consider them most minimal variance possible. Understood. OK, in that case then, we will ask for this to be adjourned. And we'll come back next month. I'm Jen. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. Thank you, Brian. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to have to go back to the next one. I'm going to have to go back to the next one. I'm going to have to go back to the next one. I'm going to have to go back to the next one. I'm going to have to go back to the next one. I'm going to have to go back to the next one. I'm going to have to go back to the next one. Yeah, yeah I'm going to get a white set. Oh, I need to get all the neighborhood to turn it down. Yeah, I'm going to get this white. Oh, it's white in a park, man. Thank you so much. You know, we're the seniors. It's like, you know what a problem is. You can't even go. What do you want this to go on? I don't know. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to get a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a Thank you for your patience. Good evening everyone, John Wooder, the Architects, We're here today with Mrs. Languago, and she and they recently got here to Flandro. Excuse me John, one second. Can I ask everybody to please step away from the door? Thank you. Thank you. Dr. Whitman. And yeah. Okay, I'm sorry. So they purchased 52 flandro last month, and we're going to do some changes to the house. But we're here tonight for our variance for the garage. The house was built in 1918, over 100 years ago. It's in the R1 10th zone. And we're proposing a garage addition within 8 feet of property money. That's our denial. Our variance is not for the 8 feet, but for the combined side yards, which are 12.8 feet or 20 is required. That has to do with the existing non-conforming side yard that was permitted in the 1910. There was an issue on the house in 1989 which we're going to take down and we're going to build lower that but doesn't need any more kind of variance or anything. That's our site plan, what we're proposing. So this is the area of the one park garage. We're going to be eight feet from the side yard here and what kind of gives me the hardship here tonight is that when this house was built in 1918 it was only four feet off of that property line because a lot is kind of gives me the partnership here tonight is that when this house was built in 1918 it was only four feet off the back property line because a lot is kind of skewed on that side. So that's why I need the variance tonight. This shows sort of the additions that we're proposing. We're going to kind of do a big addition in the back and the whole design is based on putting the garage in front here and we plan to have stay up in the mudroom and have that lead in to this large family kitchen area. So that's why this is really the best place for the garage. That's a front elevation. This would be the new garage that we're proposing. John's good and what you can't see with your point. We have a negligee tonight. and fortunate we can't see where you're pointing. We have a negligent tonight. Oh, we can't. I read it in the library. That was pretty much the answer. That's it. Oh, yeah. That's it. John's good. Yeah. Is that okay now? Oh, yeah. That's it. Okay, so that's our... So that's the area of our edition. That's what we'll look like. Through the view, it's just this area on the right side of the house. So we want to story and then that's our edition in the back that most likely will be seen. That's a rear view. And our garage is really on this side. Another rear view. This is a great photo that I took this afternoon. I will never know if it's to the site and I missed the upgrade price who lives at 65,000,000. So his house is right here. And he asked me what I was doing and I said well I'm taking pictures of the meeting tonight and he said oh well I'm not going to that meeting I heard from the comfortable with everything that you guys were supposed to go to the group. And then I stood and explained to him that we're keeping our drive in the same location and in this area is where we're building the garage. He happens to have his garage to the right. So he's about six feet off the line. I'll be eight feet off the line. And then my garage will, my driveway, my new driveway will kind of come in. And just make a little bit of a turn with a small retaining wall. That'll allow them to have a garage in this location. How big is that existing garage right now? There is no garage there. The house is built with no garage. So basically, will it produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood? I don't think so. I kind of have the mirror effect to the right of me. So it's pretty similar. Can the benefit be sought or achieved by some other methamphetinesis? Not really. This is really the best place on my new design to have a garage. It's, you know, where the existing driveway is. I think the household will be very happy to have a garage there that they can come in. Santiago's have two small children, so they have a mini band and they want to pull in the rain and sound into the garage Will it have an adverse effect on the physical conditions of the neighborhood? I don't think so they plan on doing some other work on the site Proposing new dry wells on the site as well as a driveway with a trend strain in front to pick up any water Is it substantial? No, we're following the eight foot side yard, which is permitted. And the only problem is our combined because the house was built in the 1900s with that other fourth foot setback, which makes it a side yard combination variance for us. And was it self-creative? Yes, they bought a house without a branch. I am very lucky to get this house, they said that they had bid on a lot of other houses that fell through and they found they live in New Rochelle now and they've been here, they're tired of life, so they plan to send their children to the high school, which is ready for us to speak. More taxes for me? Yes. And that's our presentation tonight. John, there's still some background noise initially. What would you say was full for you? The original answer was full. Yes, so this is interesting. So you look at the roof. No, it's not the same. Right, so here's the existing house and the roof. This is 4.8 feet here. Right. So I was denied in the building the art and not for the 8 feet. I'm supposed to be 8 and 12. So I'm at 20 combined. So I got to deny it for the combined side note. But not the side note. So you need the side note. I need the side note. So 8 is permitted. And you can see in that where we're proposing the other addition I have eight here I have 12 here. It's just over here I can't meet that and give them a bit size garage. I would even have a very big garage for them. The garage is only 13 feet wide so really I'm only going for a one car garage with about the men with that I can get away with. I didn't try to go past the eight because we thought that it would just be too close to the neighbor. Is the thing you have many down? Yes, so. So it's not the site of the neighbor, which is where it was funded? Yes, Mr. Price was exactly on the... Should have gotten an F and the neighbors. I should have. He was actually surprised at when he saw me because he said, you don't look like Santiago Garcia. And I said, now the Arkansas Park City, he hasn't moved in yet. So the house is empty. I don't like the noise. I don't know. Yes. I don't know. I don't know. He was so interested to be his neighbor. So he had to be his neighbor. So, but he had to be his neighbor's architect, but he was okay with everything in terms of construction. And there is that. So our driver is at the property line here and then he also has this eight foot buffer which is planted in the property system. Thank you. Anybody have any questions? I don't know. So, John, I was looking at a property card. Is there a garage in this thing on the property card? That's what I was confused about. Is there a garage in that on the property card? There is this here. It says garage. I just don't know. No, I think there's a share. There's a garage in here. I think it was I think it was I think it was I know time there was a And I was just I think I was 22 So we must have been Tordowns I work from an Updating survey that we started project And then when it becomes to be We started the project and the whole that's there now is in there. Oh, it's that. And then when it becomes to be a edition, John, is that going to be the edition that is there now is actually coming down? Yes. So what's going to happen is this is the house that is now at least in the existing conditions. So there's a big one story edition here with a Mansaur group that kind of looks a little like a dominoes almost in the back of the house. So we plan to take that whole edition down, reuse the foundation because the foundation is good. And then we're going to just so right now the edition is right about here and we're going to extend it because we have a high room on our site. We're going to do a kitchen, a breakfast room, and a family room, the fireplace, and then this is the existing house here which we're going to keep. And this is already a garage with the money. And then upstairs we're going to put the master bedroom on the second story with a nice master bedroom and you had an additional bedroom so the house will now go to a 2, 3, 4 bedroom house. So they'll pick up a good size master bedroom, be in the back of the house where it would be more quiet. And this is the actual room over the new garage. And then they have two nice size closets, these two bedrooms in front which will remain, the bathroom will remain, but all of this will be new and all of that position in the back here which is here is some complaint and within doesn't require anything. It's just the architects' great idea of putting a large front, created the parents. I think a bunch of the other house, it's really the best thing for the house. And the FAR and all that is all. Everything, I mean, everything except for that from the money inside your heart. And the bulk of this addition, which now is, is, is, is quite big. When you really look at it with the 3D, it's, it's very hidden here, and barely see it here. And then you, when you get to the back, we take, we should be 3D where this is a person's regular ID with a 6 foot high person So you won't see any of those rooms in that go on And as you can see in this you'll just see that the Just the up the existing part of the house here So think of it well in the neighborhood and it'll get a lot more space. The house will be about 3,100 square feet when it's done. He has a complaint. He said he wants to sleep on the master. He was just telling me that. But anyone likes to make a motion? Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'd make a motion to approve case number 33-2024. Santiago Garcia, for permission to construct a one-story addition for a new attached garage and two-story addition for an assistant dimensional non-conforming one-family building whereas the proposed 12.8 combined yard combined side yard, setback and garage addition. This lesson is the minimum required of 20 feet in a R1-1040A zone district at the premises of 52 flat-root avenue, black number 1630, black number 22. In applying the balancing test that we are required to implement, it can be achieved by any other means it works with the applicant. I visited the property and I noticed that there were in that same block that was actually four houses that had a very similar situation where the garage is actually very close to the property that you may close into the endowment there. So I think in my opinion, I think this is something that is in mind, what is in that block of that neighborhood? On the side of the changes in neighborhood character or detriment to nearby property, as I say, they are doing a garage, which is actually something that is needed for our family with a lot of kids. And they also do in the addition, which is space that they're needing. They are staying within the guideline with the FAR or the size setback. Whether the request would have adverse physical environment so affect my opinion that I think well. I think the drainage issue is that a dress job? Yes, we're putting in new drive also. Yes, we're putting in new drive also. With the different port to the sacred is self-created? Well, it is self-created, but in my opinion is not a reason for the matter. To all those considerations, I request the violence to be granted. Thank you. David Hernandez. Yes. Paul Facker. Yes. Avalor G. Yes. Yes. Fernando Arrius. Yes. Bob Tessiel. Yes. Elka Eisen. Yes.
