Board issues neutral referral on Elm Ridge FAR variance request
Summary
The planning board made a neutral referral to the zoning board for a David Abish proposal at 12 Elm Ridge Drive seeking a gross floor area variance (proposed FAR 0.335 vs. 0.30 maximum); board members noted setbacks were met and saw limited grounds to take a position beyond neutrality.
Staff presented case 13 (by David Abish) seeking an area variance for gross floor area at 12 Elm Ridge Drive; the proposed FAR was 0.335 (about 4,731 sq ft) exceeding the permitted 0.30 (4,238 sq ft). The board discussed that the proposal meets required setbacks and that the variance sole issue is FAR.
Board members generally concluded there was limited additional information to support a positive or negative recommendation and moved a neutral referral to the zoning board so that the zoning board can make its independent determination.
