The approval allows the existing 1,400-square-foot single-family home at 55 Burncoat Street to proceed under the variance. The board withdrew the 89 Brown Street duplex variance application without prejudice, meaning it may be brought back later. At 981 Main Street, the board did not decide whether to allow additional paved or otherwise impervious area for a proposed seven-unit project because engineering comments identified unresolved groundwater separation, runoff, and pretreatment issues.
