The board rejected the proposed 6- or 8-foot fence at 129 Highwood Avenue, citing concerns about setting a precedent for similar fences across town and finding no property-specific basis for the request. It approved the addition at 66 Dean Drive despite rear- and side-yard variances, requiring a ridge-height certification before the home receives its Certificate of Occupancy. The resolution for the 45 Magnolia Avenue parking-area expansion was not available and was scheduled for the March 2 meeting.
