Ridge Road Four Single-Family Homes Variances

At a glance

Based on a speech-to-text transcript; names and numbers may be misheard.

What: Variances (A2632) to subdivide undeveloped lots on Ridge Road and build four single-family homes on four lots in the RB district. Three or more lots fall short of the required 8,000 square feet, and two need reduced side-yard setbacks (minimum 5 feet). Each home would have a two-car garage plus two driveway spaces. Neighbors raised slope stability, drainage and retaining walls, and narrow-street parking and emergency access.
Where it stands: Variances granted 5-0 on October 28, 2026 with the standard conditions (two-year exercise period, recording at the Suffolk County Registry of Deeds, and site plan review approval before a building permit). The ward councilor sent a letter in favor.

2026-10-28 - Zoning Board of Appeals - Four single-family homes approved 5-0 with standard conditions after one supporter and two neighbors with concerns about grading, drainage, ledge and narrow-street access spoke; members noted site plan review and the building department still apply.
