The applicant is proposing the addition of a roof-deck, and powder room to an existing single family dwelling, resulting in an aggregate increase of valuation of 54% when combined with an expansion/remodel completed in 1993, while maintaining a nonconforming side yard. B. The existing nonconformity to be maintained is not significant or unusual in regards to compatibility with neighboring properties; C. The scale of the proposed expansion is reasonable, and is consistent with planning and zoning requirements for the R-2 zone and does not warrant requiring the current nonconforming side yard to be brought into conformance; D.
