CRITERIA FOR VARIANCE Luke Rivais {

CASE # ~Q /.!f4 .;l. August 11, 2015

A Variance requested by Luke Rivais from Section d'9.... Subsection'$J,t 19· Jf of the Zoning

Ordinance to permit: the distance between the garage and the proposed house addition to be closer than

what is allowed at 10 McDuffee St. Rochester NH 03867 Map 115 Lot 63 Zone Rl

Facts supporting this request:

1} The proposed would not diminish surrounding property values because:

The proposed will increase the property value, while creating more tax revenue for the city of Rochester. The

surrounding properties will have a very low visual exposure to the proposed, since the side and the rear

setbacks of the property will remain within code

2) Granting the variance is not contrary to the public interest because:

The proposed would not alter the essential character of the neighborhood or threaten the health, safety, or

general welfare of the public. The proposed would be adding onto the original structure of the house.

3) Denial of the variance would result in unnecessary hardship to the owner because of the following special

circumstances of the property:

The current layout of structures on the property, and the .13 acre lot size limits the available options for

construction. The current code which limits structures to be a minimum of 10 feet from one another forces

construction to stop at 4 feet 11 inches. The cost of constructing a 12' X 4'11" addition is nearly not worth the

time and money. I am only trying to end up with the best sized room for the money spent. The proposed

addition is the only viable location on the property or building layout that would not impose upon neighboring

properties.

The current distance between the buildings is 14' 11"

The proposed would be a 12' X 6.5' addition

lf this variance is granted, the distance between buildings would be 8' 5"

4) Granting the variance would do substantial justice because:

The use of the proposed being requested is consistent with uses of surrounding lots.

5) The use is not contrary to the spirit of the ordinance because:

The use of the proposed is a permitted use by the Town of Rochester, and it would be an expansion of use

while lea~~~e>f 8' 5" to gain entrance to the back of the property.

Re: Variance C'-~ c # .JO I'S-;}. I

To whom it may concern,

August 11, 2015

I am requesting a variance for the distance between the garage and the proposed house addition to be closer than what is allowed at 10 McDuffee St. Rochester NH 03867Map115 Lot 63 Zone Rl. The proposed structure would be 12' wide by 6.5' deep. The side and rear setbacks will remain within code, however the distance between structures would become 8' 5". The current requirement per code Is a minimum of 10'.

The proposed addition would allow the closed in porch to become a dining room. The small lot size, and construction cost has limited where and how to add on, so the best option is to utilize the area requiring a variance.

Thank you for your time and consideration with this variance.

Sincerely, -

. . Request of waiver of requirement to have a Certified Plot Plan for Case# 2015- :;L f

I request a waiver of the requirement to have a certified plot plan for the following reasons:

• There are no objections from any abutter, and:

• Based on the information provided, the distance into the setback will not create any problems to the abutting property because: -./le- dt..J4~ ~ -rP~ ~ ~t.ed -$,/r~rc ;:s- ft.A::=// O//~I 71f~ r?'4-r- 5 eAfi'e:...c-~ ~,,,,d 6«; h< :r ;.ao: c~('.'."@A ~~M 4<= ai w~ ~,,,k,,._ 0 ~ ~c::.- tf! f7¥'C~

• The property is cfescribea in its deed as being bounded, on the side for which relief is requested, by a natural feature like a: (st~/ row of large trees/roadway, etc.

I

• The request for relief from the setback required is modest enough that the probability of a surveying erro}'ffirge enough to make a material difference is remote. Yes t/ No ---

• Information provided is based upon other surveyed parcels in the immediate vicinity and is consistent with the tax map information, so the probability of a surveying er? ge enough to make a material difference is remote. Yes No - -

• The request for relief from the setback required is in a direction where any impact on the abutter is small or nonexistent and, should a large surveying error be found in the future, there is adequate land area tozct the problem through a lot-line adjustment. Yes_ No ____ _
