The item
Thomas McCarthy requests a Variance from Dimensional Regulation regarding Required Lot Width at 7 Allen Place to permit building on an adjacent lot at 9 Allen Place.

Applicant owns the abutting premises at 9 Allen Place, which is a parcel of unimproved land meeting current zoning requirements. Due to the subject premises not being 100 feet wide at its narrowest point, that nonconformity prevents applicant’s request for issuance of a building permit on the 9 Allen Place lot pursuant to the doctrine of “infectious invalidity”. A Variance on 7 Allen Place is necessary for the Commissioner to grant a building permit for 9 Allen Place.
