He read the legal notice into <br />the record and swore in members of the public wishing to speak on the application. <br />Ms. Rene Burke and Mr. John Burke were present on behalf of the application. Ms. Burke informed the <br />Board that they are the current homeowners of the dwelling and have been for the last sixteen years. <br />The proposal is to construct a deck off of the rear living space. <br />Ms. Burke continued that the existing backyard is disjointed and the deck will help fill in the space <br />Building Commissioner Bret Bennett stated that the application requires a Special Permit for extending <br />an existing non -conforming setback. <br />Ms. Mateev asked how the current driveway configuration worked in real time. She then asked if they <br />would remain the same or be modified. Ms. Mateev appreciated the fact that the deck does not <br />encroach the setback as far as the existing dwelling does. Ms. Burke replied that the driveways will <br />remain and both are currently used by the family. <br />Ms. Hartman asked to clarify that only the deck needs relief and not the proposed addition. Mr. Bennett <br />confirmed. Ms. Hartman found the proposal to be in character with the neighborhood and supported <br />the application. <br />Ms. Pernice stated that he did not feel the proposal was a detriment to the neighborhood. <br />Page I 1 <br />
