Variance for 152 Main Street multifamily buildings

At a glance

  • What: NBM Realty seeks a variance to build two buildings of seven units each at 19,418 sq ft per unit versus the 20,000 sq ft required.
  • Where it stands: hearing opened October 21 without the applicant (excused on the town planner's advice) and continued to November 18 at 7:00 p.m.; no decision possible because only four of seven members were present and a supermajority of five is needed.
  • Site: two six-unit buildings exist; the two new seven-unit buildings would sit behind them. No public comment.
  • Open request: a member asked for one plan sheet showing existing and proposed buildings together; staff will ask the applicant to clarify.
  • Next: continued hearing November 18; the board will apply the New State Variance Standards.
