He read the legal <br />notice into the record and swore in members of the public wishing to speak on the application. <br />Mr. Erich Georgs and Ms. Yvonne Georgs, homeowners, were present on behalf of the <br />application. <br />Mr. Maughan informed the Applicants that while the Building Commissioner was not present at <br />the hearing a letter was submitted from him. Mr. MacNichol read the letter into the record <br />which indicated that the proposal required a Special Permit as no new non -conformities will be <br />made, but an existing legal non -conforming setback will be extended. <br />Mr. Georgs stated that the existing deck is not very useful and is deteriorating. The proposal is <br />to reconstruct a larger deck, as well as an elevated addition. He continued that Haverhill Street <br />is quite busy and they would like to utilize their backyard more due to such. <br />Mr. Normandin asked if the existing deck is the triangular shape shown on the plan. Mr. Georgs <br />replied in the affirmative and added that he does have pictures of such if needed. Mr. Georgs <br />added that a line of evergreen trees exists along the property line where the structure is <br />encroaching, which helps screen the addition. He continued that letters of support were <br />provided from both direct abutters to the property. <br />Page 1 1 <br />
