By sharing information and resources, our environmental work benefits exponentially.” “The intensifying impacts of climate change are unevenly burdening communities of color, new immigrants, and vulnerable populations in Chelsea,” stated Chelsea’s Director of Housing & Community Development, Alex Train, AICP. “The RMC has enabled us to work with long-standing community partners, like GreenRoots, by adding capacity for regional solutions to coastal flooding, urban heat, and air quality that will stem displacement, combat public health disparities, and allow residents to prosper in place.” “The RMC is leading regional collaboration to address the impacts of climate change across municipal boundaries and Cambridge is proud to be a part of this amazing organization,” said Cambridge Commissioner of Public Works Katherine Watkins. “A perfect example of this is the Amelia Earhart Dam, which provides critical protection from coastal flooding to numerous communities, but is owned and operated by the state. Through the RMC, the conversation about the dam has shifted from individual communities identifying the dam as being vulnerable to a coordinated effort with DCR to elevate the dam and other coastal flood pathways.” “We designed our facilities in Assembly Row and Charlestown with climate change in mind,” said the Senior Project Manager for Mass General Brigham, David Burson. “We knew this wouldn’t be enough, however, and understood the need for a regional strategy and coalition to address the larger climate vulnerabilities that we and the communities CITY OF EVERETT - LEGAL NOTICE - ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS 484 BROADWAY, ROOM 24 EVERETT, MASSACHUSETTS 02149 To Whom It May Concern: This notice is to inform you that a public hearing will be held on Monday July 17, 2023 at 6:00 PM, Everett City Hall, 3rd Floor George Keverian Hearing Room. All interested parties may attend and opinions will be heard regarding the following petition. Whereas a petition has been presented by: Property Address: 15 Dean St. Everett, MA. 02149 Map/Parcel: C0-06-000049 Permit Number: B-22-685 Person Requesting: Tom Mills 15 Dean St. Everett, MA 02149 PROPOSAL: The owner wishes to demolish a single-family dwelling and erect a three (3) family dwelling in the Dwelling District. The plot plan submitted indicates the lot area is 4,665 SF. Architectural plans submitted by Lafreneire Architects shows the proposed floor area is 4,383 SF. In the plans provided there are 5 proposed parking spaces in the rear. Reason for Denial: Permit was denied in accordance to the City of Everett Zoning Ordinance. The applicant shall seek relief from the Zoning Board of Appeals as follows: Section 4.A(1) Allows conversion of one- and two-family structures to three family structures, provided certain conditions are satisfied. This provision does not permit demolition of an existing single-family dwelling and construction of a new three-family dwelling, since this is not a conversion of the existing structure. A use variance is therefore required. Section 4 B. Dimensional Requirements. 1. Frontage (A) 50 feet minimum. According to the plans provided, the property at 15 Dean St. has a frontage of 40 feet. Although the frontage of the lot will not change, the use of the nonconforming lot will be intensified. Therefore, it is my determination that the proposal will increase the nonconforming nature of the lot and that a special permit is required from the Zoning Board of Appeals, pursuant to Section 4.F of the Zoning Ordinance. Section 4 B. Dimensional Requirements. 2. Lot Area (C) 0.5 maximum floor area ratio. According to the plans provided, the applicant proposes a .94 FAR. Since the property is currently conforming as to lot area, a variance for the proposed FAR is required. Section 17. Off-Street Parking. (A). 2. Multifamily Dwellings. 2 (two) spaces per dwelling unit. In the plans provided 5 (five) parking spaces are proposed where 6 (six) are required. The applicant must either obtain a variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals or choose to participate in the TDM provisions of Section 35. MARY GERACE - Chairman Roberta Suppa - Clerk of the Board of Appeals June 30, July 07, 2023 we serve will be facing. The Resilient Mystic Collaborative has provided an effective forum for this regional conversation, and has been an incredibly effective catalyst for the funding and implementation of this essential work.” “I have been part of quite a few partnerships,” said Lexington Town Engineer John Livsey. “The RMC really delivers. I am really proud to have been one of its founders and still involved five years later.” “Winchester has been working to address increasing heat, flooding and water quality issues,” said Winchester’s Sustainability Director, Ken Pruitt. “Through our participation with the RMC, we have access to resources and experts that are helping our community become more resilient to climate change. The RMC is a valuable partner, and we are grateful for its support and collaboration.” “When we worked with Cambridge on flood mitigation planning for the Alewife neighborhood, it quickly became apparent that the city could not protect itself on its own,” said Noble, Wickersham and Heart Partner Barbara Landau. “We understood that solutions had to be regional. That is when the RMC stepped in and provided its terrific and effective framework for collaboration and the ability to secure funding for critical projects that benefit the region.” “People say that cities and towns in Massachusetts don’t like to work together, but the RMC is a great counterexample,” said CH Consulting Principal Carri Hulet. “For five years I’ve seen folks work across borders with tremendous good will and it’s paying off. The people who live and work in this region will benefit for decades because their leaders today are doing the hard work of regional collaboration.” “Our success has been a blend of hard work, high trust, and very, very lucky timing,” said MyRWA Senior Policy Advisor Julie Wormser. “Right now, the federal government is making a generational investment in equitable, climate-resilient, nature-based projects that make our communities safer, more just, and more beautiful. Barr’s generous investment means that the RMC is ready and able to leverage this funding to bring more priority projects to fruition.” GRANT | SEE PAGE 7 - LEGAL NOTICE - COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT Middlesex Probate and Family Court 10-U Commerce Way Woburn, MA 01801 (781) 865-4000 Docket No. MI21P290EA Estate of: JAMES V.
