Why is this a problem?

Dear Neighbors:
This email is intended to reach interested residents and property
owners who are interested in the planned conversion of 2741 St. Paul
Street from 3 to 4 units with the 4th unit being in the basement.
There is a zoning hearing set for Tuesday, December 8, 2009, 3 p.m.,
at the Board of Municipal and Zoning Appeals for Baltimore City, City
Hall. Any interested persons can attend the hearing and/or send
letters in support or opposition to the appeal. You should address
your letters to:
David Tanner, Executive Director
Board of Municipal Zoning Appeals
417 East Fayette Street, Room 4132
Baltimore, MD 21202
and be sure to include the Appeal No., property address, and hearing
date in your subject line.
Residents should send the original by mail, a copy by email to
david.tan...@baltimorecity.gov with a copy to me so that we can have
them in our file when we appear before the Board. The BMZA's phone
number is 410-396-4301. All of this info can also be found at
http://baltimorecity.gov/government/zoning/ along with the hearing
dockets.
It is also important for the residents opposing the appeal to show up
at the hearing itself. The presence of the opposition carries much
weight with the BMZA. If no residents appear or send letters in
opposition the CVCA will be unable to appeal an unfavorable ruling
because only an adjacent resident has standing to appeal.
The CVCA Land Use Committee has recommended to that the CVCA Board
send a letter to the BMZA opposing the appeal, and the Board vote is
pending. If you are interested in the reasons for the Committee's
recommendation, contact me and I will share them with you. For the
sake of brevity, I have not included them here.
So far, 7 residents from 4 separate nearby addresses have opposed the
conversion and sent letters to the BMZA.
This case is basically identical to Zoning Appeal 246-09: 2927 St.
Paul Street from April 2009 where we strongly opposed the applicant's
planned conversion of a 3 dwelling unit into a 4 dwelling unit and the
BMZA denied the applicant's appeal.
Please contact me if you have any questions.
