1927 Beach Ave Zoning 2nd Review Comments
1. Setbacks: Now that the issue raised in the first round of comments with the attachment of the
garage to the main house has been resolved, another issue has come up. The measurement between
the existing garage and the western property line along Beach Avenue was not shown in the original
plans and is not shown in the survey submitted later. When measured to scale, the existing garage is
closer to the property line than what is allowed for a garage apartment. The setback for a garage
apartment is 20 feet from rear property lines (western property line). Garage apartments can be
remodeled within the existing footprint but cannot expand nonconformity. The bump out and
balconies on the west side of the second floor extend into the setback and increase the conformity of
the structure.
The garage apartment must be modified so that no new portions of the building extend beyond the
existing footprint within 20 feet of the western property line.
