REQUESTING: ELIMINATE ONLY THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE CONNECTION
OF THE TWO EXISTING HOMES ON THE OCEANSIDE TO THE PROPOSED NEW
DWELLING.
Jason Mankoff, Esq. presented application to the Board. The history
of the property follows: in order to obtain a zero lot line, the
houses needed to be connected, of which they were via walls. At the
time of approval, it was discussed that some sort of a "bridge" be
built over the interior roadway to the ocean front houses. The fire
department has a problem with this concept because they won't be
able to get their large truck under it . The project would also look
more pleasing without the "bridge". John Caldwell, homeowner on the
ocean noted that the "bridge" would be connected to his house at the
second story, and he does not want this.
A Public Hearing has been scheduled for July 10. After further
discussion and questions, the board members conducted a site visit.
The meeting was adjourned at 2:35 p.m.
APPROVE:
Joseph A. Sarubbi, Ch.
Joseph S. Yucht, V.Ch.
Merton Rubin
Jack A. Halpern
Michael W. Hill
Peter Corrales
