Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The school project can move forward with gymnasium and auditorium sections higher than the usual zoning limit because the board found the height appropriate for those uses and not harmful to the community. The approved porch addition will further increase existing lot and setback nonconformities, but the board found it consistent with nearby residences and received no public objections. Both applications were approved unanimously by the voting members.
