�25, Paragraph A would not be applicable, and therefore,
the Building Inspector had no right to deny the building
permit ;
(xi) That by reason of the foregoing Appellant
is being denied the reasonable use of his property.
(b)

That by reason of the aforesaid unusual and pecu-

liar circumstances and conditions, there are-practical difficulties in the way of carrying--;out the strict letter of
the provisions of Section 62 , ^Siibsect ion - 25 ,. Paragraph A
and Section 62, Subsection 14,..Paragraph E of the Zoning

1

Ordinance and same would resultrin",unnecessary hardship

\

Jf/to

the extent that strict" application'-'of said'provisions

wouId deprive Appellant of the reasonable Use of said'property, which practical difficulties^are an"unnecessary hardship would be, as follows:

.; "?/

.

,V , ..

(i) There already exists J a non-conforming^use .as
referred to by the building inspector in"his denial'of
the building permit insofar as 7.2-parking spaces are required for the six (6) families occupying,the building;
(ii) Appellant does not own sufficient 5 property
to cause such non-conforming use to conform; . : . ? , -

�(iii) Because of the physical structure existing on
the property it would be impossible at this date to provide
the parking required by the Zoning Ordinance;
(iv) The proposed addition will not in any manner
further extend the non-conforming use as to parking;
(v) Without the proposed variance Appellant cannot improve his property for the benefit of himself and his
family, including grandchildren, nieces and nephews.

3.

Because of the aforesaid alleged facts, Appellant pe-

titions the Board of Appeals, in acting on this appeal, to
vary the strict application of the aforesaid provisions of
the Zoning Ordinance to said property to the following specific extent; to permit the construction of an addition to
the building of approximately 723 square feet without complying with the parking requirements of 1.2 spaces for each
family or 7.2 spaces in the aggregate.
Alternatively, Appellant petitions the Board of Appeals
to hold that because the cost of the proposed addition will
not exceed 2 5 % of the assessed value of the building the
Building Inspector had no authority in denying Appellant's
application for a building permit.

�Attached hereto are:
A.

Application to Building Inspector for Building
Permit.

B.
4.

Preliminary plans and lot layout.

Appellant further alleges that such variance would be

in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinance and would not be injurious and detrimental
to property or persons in the neighborhood, for the following reasons:
(i) The non-conforming use already exists and will
not be extended by the proposed*addition;
(ii) The approval of the requested variance will
tend to promote the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community by providing the children with an
area in which to play and in encouraging the improvement
of property for such purpose; .
(iii) It would not increase congestion in the streets
or be inconsistent with any of the other provisions of the
Zoning Ordinance.
