Brooks Demolition and Rebuild
Description
Demolish the existing coastal home and rebuild a FEMA-compliant four-bedroom house out of the VE flood zone; the board recommended approval of the modest height and floor-area variances to the Zoning Board, 5-0.
Impact summary
A safer, storm-resilient home replaces a flood-vulnerable one, with site coverage cut from 28% to 20.5% and the deck pulled 8 feet further from the coastal feature.
