Case 10-09 John Maloney, 19 Saltaire Drive
A Motion was made by J. McQuade, seconded by M. Ossmann to GRANT w/condition the necessary variances to allow the kitchen to move to the existing garage and renovate/update the existing kitchen and bathroom. The condition is that there be no increase in the number of bedrooms, bedrooms to remain three (3). The proposal is not against the intent of zoning, it is extending the use of the house they have now, not increasing the use. It is a reasonable request to make the house much more livable without changing the footprint or asking for any change in setbacks. No further discussion and a vote was taken. In favor: S. Stutts, J. McQuade, J. St. Germain, R. Smith, M. Ossmann In opposition: None
Abstaining: None The motion passed unanimously. 5-0-0
