The applicant proposes to consolidate two contiguous parcels located at 101 Morris Avenue and 105 &107 Morris Avenue on the corner of Morris Avenue and Third Street, and then re-subdivide the combined parcels to create two new building lots to be addressed 210 Third Street (Lot 1) and 208 Third Street (Lot 2). An approximately 1,400-SF two-story, one-family, semi-detached building (a building containing two owner- occupied, one-family dwelling units) will be constructed and sited so that half of the building and one dwelling unit will be located at 210 Third Street. The other half of the building and the second unit will be constructed on 208 Third Street. Both 210 and 208 Third Street are in an R-2b Use District, which allows a semi-detached building, provided the building and lot meet District Regulations requirements. However, the applicant’s proposal to site the building, so it straddles both lots, requires two Area Variances for the lot at 210 Third Street. The proposed width in feet at street front for 210 Third Street is 30.98 Feet; required is 35 feet. In addition, the proposed lot at 210 Third Street does not meet the setback requirement for other side yard. As designed, the building’s other side yard setback is 0 feet; required is 5 feet. While the proposed one-family, semi-detached building at 210 Third Street is a permitted use in the R-2b Zoning District, General Municipal Law, Article 3, Section 33.3, requires Area Variances be granted before a Subdivision is approved.
