Summary of changes made since the November Special Joint Meetin, All changes that were made to proposed Ordinance 99/3 at the meeting held on November 19, 1999 were approved except as follows: 1) Section 3. - Paragraph (5) of Sec. 56 -137 is changed to add a reference to root systems that pose a substantial hazard to persons or property. 2) Section 27 proposes changes in the front and rear setbacks in the Core District to 30' in the front, 20' in the rear for interior lots, 30' in the rear on AlA and 25' in the rear for lots connected to ICWW. Mayor Koch advised that at the time the original homes were built, there were deed restrictions that required a 50' setback in the rear. J) He pointed out that if this change were to be enacted, new houses that are built in this area will be 30' closer to the water, blocking the view of existing homes. Following discussion on this matter, the Town Manager was directed to re -write this section to provide for a 50' rear setback for lots connected to the ICWW in the Core District and a 30' rear setback for lots connected to the ICWW in all other Districts, with a Special Exception provision for more shallow lots to have the setback computed on a percentage of lot depth. 3) Section 29 - Sub - paragraph d. of Paragraph (2) of Sub - section (i) of Special Joint Meeting Town Commission /Architectural Review & Planning Board December 16, 1999 page 2 Sec. 70 -75 to be changed to read The first 5' of the building must be one story in height.
