Summary

The board approved special‑use permits to reduce a 3‑family to 2‑family and to add 2nd and 3rd floor decks at 104 2nd St, finding the new design keeps lot coverage and setbacks within acceptable limits.

Counsel told the board the 3‑family property at 104 2nd Street will be converted to two units with decks added at the 2nd and 3rd levels above an existing 1st‑floor deck; there will be no change to lot coverage or encroachments into setbacks beyond the existing footprint. "There's no encroachments into setbacks," counsel said, and the decks are vertically aligned over the existing footprint.

Board members asked about the relationship to the historic district to the west and were told the property is not inside the HDC. After questions about Juliet balconies and the decking plan, the board voted unanimously to approve the special‑use permits with the standard timing and notice conditions.
