The house at 3 Hill Street is a beautifully restored , historically
significant structure built in 1904 . It's location on the lot
make it necessary to apply for this variance tplallow for the,--
creation of a second separate single family residence on parcel
2 of Tentative Parcel Map 89-243.
I don't believe that this request will constitute a grant of
special privilege inconsistent with normal limitations.
This request is necessary to preserve what I believe was the
original intended use of this property when it was developed
in 1904. `
The granting of this request will not be materially detrimental
to the public welfare . Quite the opposite , I b,`elieve that it
will be beneficial to the public welfare . The, granting of this.
request will not be increasing population density 'or increasing.
traffic to the area , but it will be adding one more inclosed
parking place and one more off the street parking place than
currently exist.
