Minutes of the Lexinqton Zoninq Board of Appeals <br /> Selectmen's Meeting Room <br /> August 27, 2020 <br /> Board Members: Chair— Ralph D. Clifford, Jeanne K. Krieger, Nyles N. Barnert, Norman P. <br /> Cohen and David G. Williams <br /> Alternate Member: William Kennedy <br /> Administrative Staff: Jennifer Gingras, Zoning Administrator and Sharon Coffey, <br /> Administrative Clerk <br /> Address: 36 Woburn Street <br /> The petitioner is requesting SPECIAL PERMIT section(s) 135-9.4 and 135-8.4.2 to allow <br /> modification to a non-conforming structure. <br /> The petitioner submitted the following information with the application: Nature and Justification, <br /> Plot Plan and plans. <br /> Prior to the meeting, the petitions and supporting data were reviewed by the Building <br /> Commissioner, Conservation Administrator, Town Engineer, Board of Selectmen, the Planning <br /> Director, the Historic District Commission Clerk, Historical Commission, Economic <br /> Development, and the Zoning Administrator. Comments were received from the Building <br /> Commissioner and the Zoning Administrator. <br /> Presenter: Amar Sahay, homeowner of 36 Woburn Street <br /> The Hearing was opened at 7:05 pm. <br /> Amar Sahay presented the petition. He stated the proposed modification does not create a new <br /> non-conformity and will not be more detrimental to the neighborhood. They would like to replace <br /> the existing deck with a mudroom. It would only increase the square footage marginally. The <br /> proposed addition will have a landing and front steps. The primary purpose of this proposal is to <br /> avoid bringing dirt into the house. All of their shoes are in the kitchen. <br /> A Board Member, Nyles N. Barnert, stated shed in the back is on top of an easement and is <br /> non-conforming (The shed was there when they bought the house. The entire house is <br /> non-conforming). <br /> Chair, Ralph D. Clifford, asked how long the shed has been there (They bought the house in <br /> 2013, not sure). <br /> Mr. Clifford stated if the gas company needs to get to that easement the property owner would <br /> have to move the shed. He questioned if the applicant would be willing to accept the condition <br /> the shed has to be removed, it is too close to property line. <br /> The Zoning Administrator stated if the shed has been there for more than 10 years it is <br /> grandfathered in and can stay. <br /> Mr. Clifford stated the current ownership only goes back 7 years. <br />
