PUBLIC HEARING

 

1)                    PAUL J. KAYE and CATHY DUKE: Appeal #760 for a Variance.  Due to the irregular lot shape and contours, the existing house already overlaps the corner setback.  The proposed addition adds needed living space while drawing the structure away from the closest neighboring house.  The front setback variance is required in order to provide a covered entrance and much needed kitchen space. This is a continuation of a public hearing held on January 24, 2005.  (Located 21 Mountain Drive, Cold Spring) in an R-20 District.  TM #16.11-1-42, 43 & 44
