7-11 Burns Avenue Seven-Unit Residential Building
At a glance
Applicants Jim Chen and Min Van seek site plan review and a parking waiver (case 2026-11) to demolish a five-unit two-story building at 7-11 Burns Avenue (Business B district) and build a three-story building with seven two-bedroom units and 14 ground-level parking spaces, with a mansard-style roof. The front setback would be 15 feet against 25 required, so a Zoning Board of Appeals variance will also be needed. The engineer described porous pavement, an underground infiltration system and an oil separator, cutting peak runoff 30 to 40 percent. The large front tree would be removed. The abutting laundromat owner supports the project, and Ward 2 Councilor Richard Ash wrote that a March neighborhood meeting was generally positive. A resident asked about the tree ordinance and paving over green space. The hearing was continued to December 9 so department review can finish.
