Subject: MAP ID 25C-051 at 59 Lincoln Ave - Request for Change from Accessory Structure to Dwelling and Addition of
Second Detached Unit
Dear Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals,
I am writing to express my support and enthusiasm for the proposed improvements at MAP ID 25C-051 located at 59
Lincoln Ave. The request to change the existing accessory structure to a dwelling and add a second detached unit
represents a positive and welcomed development for our neighborhood.
While I understand that the proposed changes may not conform to the distance regulations from our shared property line,
I firmly believe that the overall benefits these improvements will bring to the community outweigh any minor non-
conformities. The addition of a dwelling and a second detached unit will contribute to the diversity of housing options in
our neighborhood and potentially provide housing opportunities for individuals or families seeking to reside in our vibrant
community.
Val and Bill are responsible and thoughtful community members who are committed to maintaining the character and
integrity of our neighborhood. Their dedication to creating a well-designed and aesthetically pleasing development is
evident in their plans.
I kindly request that the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals carefully consider the potential benefits this project
offers to our community and the positive impact it can have on our neighborhood. I believe that with appropriate
consideration and any necessary mitigating measures, MAP ID 25C-051 can be transformed into a valuable asset that
enhances our neighborhood's appeal.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Should you require any additional information or further input, please
do not hesitate to contact me. I trust in your expertise and commitment to making well-informed decisions that prioritize
the overall well-being and development of our community.
Sincerely,
Marisela Fermin-Schon
