In 2020, the applicant received Special Land Use approval (upper floor residential uses) for a similar proposal. Final site plan approval was granted in 2021. The applicant is returning to have the plans reviewed again, as the original Special Land Use permit and Final site plan expired before the property owner was ready to apply for a building permit. The new proposal is similar to the original proposal, except that the expansion of the residential unit on the second floor has been modified so that the new unit will occupy the entire floor, eliminating the other two small apartments.
The current set of plans shows that the “service” area of the existing first-floor restaurant will be expanded to include a cooler, and a small storage area underneath the stairwell to the second floor. The first floor will also be expanded to the rear of the site with the addition of a two-car residential garage, elevator, and entryway/stairwell to the residential unit above. The second floor will also be expanded by adding onto the rear of the building, which will include an outdoor patio and outdoor kitchen above the garage. The number of residential units in this building will be reduced from three to one. Note that the stairwell access from Main Street will remain. The new unit will also be accessed via a stairway at the back of the building.
