We were also informed of the following: 1.The developers were going for a Zone Variance to allow zero open space of the 3,325 square feet open space. 2.The developers are requesting that the ZA approve a reduced front yard of 8 feet in lieu of the 15 foot as required 3.To allow a reduced 5 foot northerly side yard in lieu of the 6 foot required. 4. To allow a reduced 11 foot rear yard in lieu of the 15 foot as required.

The neighbors response were concerns over the rooftop decks and the lack of privacy and noise and the effect it could have on surrounding neighbors,also the problem of lack of street parking.     . 

There was no motion due to the lack of time we had allotted to us.  The neighbors expressed their concerns.
