(There was no response. ) (The Board discussed the proposed .extension, examining the sketches in the file and all -other information- available. ) , The B.oard. of.Appeals' finds that this applicant has maintained this studio for about 12 years.

A. group =of residents wish to maintain an exhibition during the summer season of their own work and non-resident artists.

The .Board finds that this is a customary and expected addition and does not materially change the use or prolong the .life of the. non-conforming use or structure, nor will there be an extension of an existing non-conforming use and the indefinite prolongation of the life of -a non-conforming building. The consent. of all adjoining property owners has been obtained.
