Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by other feasible means. Identify what alternatives to the variance have been explored (alternative designs,attempts to purchase land,etc.)and why they are not feasible. There are not available alternative options.There is not land that could be purchased. The lot is sub-standard which makes it difficult to comply with the rear yard setback.Various design options were explored, but this option requires the least amount of variance. 2. Whether granting the variance will produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. Granting the variance will not create a detriment to nearby properties or an undesirable change in the neighborhood character for the following reasons: The two family dwellings will not alter the neighborhood character.They will improve and enhance the neighborhood character, respecting it surroundings and architectural character. Revised 01/2021 ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS APPLICATION FORM PAGE 7 3. Whether the variance is substantial. The requested variance is not substantial for the following reasons: Although the variance may sound substantial, it is not substantial for the character of the neighborhood. The enclosed attachment indicates the surrounding buildings that have more than 30% lot coverage. The addition of the principal building and the accessory building is a total of 40% lot coverage and the proposed two family residence will be under that number.The rear setback of 7'-3"is not significant, because it is only a 50%of the total length of the units. 4. Whether the variance will have adverse physical or environmental effects on neighborhood or district. The requested variance will not have an adverse physical or environmental effect on the neighborhood or district for the following reasons: The proposed design should not have any adverse physical or environmental effect on the neighborhood.The building respects the character and surrounding buildings, and enhances the neighborhood.The proposed two family structure will respect the front yard setback. 5. Whether the alleged difficulty was self-created(although this does not necessarily preclude the granting of an area variance).Explain whether the alleged difficulty was or was not self-created: The difficulty is self-created because the owner would like to remove the garage that is structurally unsafe and build a new two ffamily structure.The lot with it's size and configuration is substandard.
