Can you confirm whether the current use of the property is a preexisting two-family dwelling? If that is the case, do the proposed plans intend to convert it into a single-family residence? Alternatively, is the property already functioning as a single-family home? Kindly provide us with this information so that we may finalize our review and advance the application to the Zoning Board of Appeals.
