Quick context to catch up fast.
The Board unanimously approved a variance allowing a 13-by-20-foot shed on a 14-by-26-foot slab and a 20-by-22-foot garage addition at 161 North Baker, all aligned with an existing garage at a zero-foot side setback. The approval requires gutters, and no action can be taken during the 10-day appeal period.

Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The variance allows the property owner to build the shed and garage addition directly along the side property line, closer than the standard three-foot setback. The Board found that the narrow lot and existing garage supported the request, while gutters would help direct rainwater away from the neighboring property. The Board also postponed a decision on the Zimmerman variance denial resolution until June 3, 2026.
