In addition to our concerns regarding loss of property value,
loss of privacy, noise, light pollution and other repercussions of
having a rental structure so close to our home, I am most
concerned about the potential fire precautions that would be
ignored by allowing this conversion of a nearly 100 year old
structure into a secondary residential dwelling.
Before considering approving the request to ignore the several
set-back ordinances, we ask the Zoning Committee to confirm
why these ordinances were put in place originally - if any one of
them is in place as a fire precaution, please consider that you
put the lives of the occupants of both structures at risk, as well
as the properties.
This structure is 19.5 feet not from our property line, but from
our house, so we greatly appreciate your very careful
consideration of this situation before making a determination.
