Proposed Conditions The applicant, 127 Mitchell Street, LLC, is proposing to demolish the existing single- family dwelling on Lot 12 and construct a building addition in the rear of the existing mixed-use building on Lot 11. The addition will accommodate additional office space within the ground floor and two new dwellings within the upper floors. This would bring the total number of residential dwellings in the building to three dwellings. Parking will be accommodated in a 22-car surface parking lot to the left of the mixed-use building, on existing Lot 12, with access provided via curb-cut along Pleasant Way Avenue. Zoning Considerations The subject property is located in the OB-1 (Office Building) Zone. Pursuant to Section 25-7.1 (Attachment 2) of the municipal zoning ordinance, the existing/proposed mixed-use building is not permitted in the zone. As such, the applicant respectfully seeks ‘D-2’ expansion of nonconforming use variance relief to enlarge the existing mixed-use building. The applicant also seeks ‘D-5’ density variance relief as it relates to minimum lot area per dwelling. ‘C’ variance relief is also required, as listed in Table 1, below.
