Zoning Board of Appeals - Regular Meeting

The Zoning Board of Appeals denied a request for a variance to reduce the minimum front setback from 50 feet to 25 feet for a proposed storm shelter at 2900 Burge Street. The applicant argued for the variance due to the optimal location for employee safety and to avoid impacting grand trees, but staff recommended denial, citing other feasible locations and the ability to build within tree canopies with proper protection.
