Zoning board approves variance resolution for 335 Wilson Ave with stormwater conditions
Summary
The board adopted Resolution ZB25‑12 approving variances for a detached garage, driveway expansion and covered patio at 335 Wilson Avenue, conditioned on stormwater measures and other corrections to the resolution language.
The Washington Zoning Board approved Resolution ZB25‑12, which adopts the board’s earlier approval of variances for a detached garage, driveway expansion and an adjoining covered patio at 335 Wilson Avenue. The resolution includes conditions addressing stormwater management and minor editorial corrections to the resolution language.
Board engineer John Yekimmick reviewed calculations and earlier meeting notes with the panel and clarified stormwater requirements. The resolution requires the applicant’s engineer to design a stormwater management system that retains runoff from all new roof areas plus the existing gutters at the rear of the house and to tie that system into a seepage basin, per the conditions in the resolution.
Members discussed numeric summaries in the minutes and prior meeting testimony about garage area percentages; Yekimmick noted differing referenced figures in the record and confirmed the board’s prior direction on stormwater and setback adjustments. The resolution’s conditions also instruct that any fence encroaching on neighboring property be removed or reset inside the owner’s property line.
The board moved and adopted the resolution on a roll call vote approving the written resolution as an accurate record of the board’s decision and conditions. Roll call recorded votes in favor by Member Grimaldi, Member Hanna, Member Lagrada, Member Zipkow and Member Rivera; one member voted no on the application itself but supported approval of the resolution language to reflect the board’s action.
