Description
A developer wanted to build the 22-unit townhouse project at three full stories instead of the 2.5 allowed, keeping the same 35-foot height. The Board said no because no hardship was shown.
Impact summary
The Board of Adjustment denied it on Mar 3, 2026.
The project can still be built at 2.5 stories within the 35-foot cap and still needs Planning Board approval; abutters keep a proposed 10-foot no-cut buffer protecting their rear yards.
