10. 11. 13. 14. 15. The existing building is setback 125.7 feet from the eastern (front) property line on Main Street, 6.8 feet from the rear property line and 12.9 feet and 8.6 feet from the northern and southern property lines respectively. No changes to the footprint of the existing building are proposed. The area surrounding the subject property is a retail business district and to the rear are one-family residences. Applicant presented testimony from its engineer, Donna Bullock, that of the six properties on either side of the property in question on Main Street, four were taller than the proposed building. The front yard of the building is currently paved and striped with parking stalls- plans show the parking stalls arranged into two rows along the northern and southern sides of the front yard with 20 standard parking spaces, two (2) parking spaces and one ADA van-accessible space for a total parking space count of 25 spaces (which includes the EV credit). There is a gradual decrease in grade from the rear to the front of the site and to accommodate this change in grade, there is an existing paved area around the front and side perimeter of the building. The first floor will be subdivided into two separate office spaces, each with separate entrances. Applicant’s representative, Maurice Cox, testified that one of the offices will house his medical business (True Allied) which is currently located at 105 Main Street and the other space will be dedicated office space. The current building is dilapidated and is just a shell- Applicant seeks to rehabilitate the existing building to create a more aesthetically pleasing and useful building.
