The current home is non -conforming and currently being used as a pre- <br />existing four family home in the S-15 district. He was looking to rebuild within the existing home <br />footprint, which would remove the existing encroachment setbacks, and to continue the use as a 4 - <br />family home. Their plan would be to turn the four units into home ownership rather than rental units. <br />Mr. David Traniello also mentioned that they would also have to go before CPDC for site plan review. <br />Mr. Patrick Houghton asked what the neighbors have thought about the project. Mr. Kevin Emery stated <br />that he had walked around the previous weeks and left some letters for people to contact him if they <br />had any questions. He also noted that his engineer was around fora while and some neighbors had <br />asked him a few questions. <br />Ms. Cynde Hartman asked how the characteristics of the building would change. Mr. Kevin Emery stated <br />that the original roof is an apex roof and the new roof will be a flat roof, with bays in the front with <br />balconies, and new siding in place of the existing vinyl. He also noted that each unit would have two <br />parking spots. <br />Mr. Cy Caouette asked if there would be any new non -conformities with the new building. The applicant <br />stated there would not be any new non -conformities and that the new building would actually remove <br />the current non -conformities. <br />Mr. Cy Caouette opened the meeting up to public comment. <br />Page 1 1 <br />
