The property is furtheridentified as lot 4 on the tax map U-18, is in the R-2 zoning district, and the Shorelandzone. Due to this latter zone, the relocation of the structure requires approval by theZoning Board of Appeals, but before we can seek ZBA approval we must first obtain anadvisory opinion from the Planning Board regarding the house’s location on the lot.The property also lies within a Back Dune and an Erosion Hazard Area (EHA) asgoverned by the DEP, and a DEP Permit-By-Rule application has been submitted. Adecision on the permit must be reached on or by Nov. 7, 2012. The lot is not in theResource Protection zone, but is in the flood zone. Given this latter fact, the proposednew house will be elevated on piles, as it is now, to meet all municipal and FEMA criteriafor elevation.The lot area is 33,236 square feet (0.76 Ac), and the footprint of the existing house is2,713 square feet. The structure is non-conforming now because the house wasconstructed in 1920, prior to the enactment of zoning. Now that zoning is in effect, thebuilding infringes on the front, rear, and shoreland setbacks. The proposal would movethe building out of the shoreland setback and keep the same encumbrance on the frontand rear setbacks, making the structure less non-conforming.Regulatory CompliancePursuant to the Scarborough Shoreland Zoning Ordinance, Section 12.C.1. and 2, thestructure can and may be relocated if the ZBA agrees to it as part of the variance process.This waiverable condition has been previously allowed by both the DEP and the town forsites that warrant such activity based on the variance request. The house will be relocatedto be further away from the resource (Atlantic Ocean). Additionally, septic issues are nota consideration given that the lot is served by public water and sewer-1-

Pursuant to the Scarborough Zoning Ordinance, Section III.F, we will be addressing the proposed expansion ofthe house with the ZBA, but the Planning Board must issue its advisory opinion prior to ZBA consideration.Pursuant also to Section IV.I.4.a-i, which addresses Standards for Special Exception by the Zoning Board, weoffer the following as information to the Planning Board:a. No unsanitary conditions for sewage disposal, air or water emissions apply.b. No unsafe vehicle or pedestrian traffic conditions will result from this proposal.c. No public safety problems will result from this proposal.d. There will be no erosion or adverse effect on water supplies.e. The proposed house is the same as what is existing which is compatible with the other housesin the Saccarappa Lane area.f. Requirements of the Shoreland zone will be addressed with the ZBA for compliance.g. The Bells have owned the house and property since 2012h. The Bells have the technical and financial capacity to complete this project.i. This project is for a single-family house in a neighborhood of other singlefamilyhouses.We would like to meet with the Planning Board on November 19 th , 2012 to present this request for its advisoryopinion. Please contact Lee Allen or me if you have any questions. Thank you.Sincerely,Northeast Civil Solutions, Inc.CC: Dan Bacon, Town PlannerJacob Sparkowich, E.I.T.Project Engineer -2-
