The zoning code is unclear as to whether this alley should be <br />considered as a ‘side street’ requiring a 35' setback in the LR-1B zone, or is merely subject to a I O' side <br />setback requirement. Staff used the 10' standard in review of this applieation. <br />The entire house is bcingrcmodclcd;al»alfstoryisbeingadded above the newer(l984)ea.st wing. The <br />west wing will have a higher-pitched roof to accommodate a new vaulted ceiling. It has been rc'cently <br />determinul that the foundation under the west wing is in unacceptable condition and must be replaced. As <br />a result, tlie extent of removals along tlie west lot line wi II exceed the extent anticipated during the variance <br />review. I he question is whether so little of this west wing will remain as to suggest that it should be <br />considered as a rebuild, and if so, whether tlie west wall should be moved eastward to meet tlic required <br />It)' setback.
