The approved variance allows the Mt. St. Mary's Avenue property to add a second dwelling unit. The proposed ADU at Christie Street cannot proceed with the requested front placement because the board found the change would be self-created and would alter the neighborhood's character. At Brunswick Road, the fence may be placed 1 foot from the property line, but the 6-foot height was not approved; the applicant agreed to use a shadowbox fence.
