Summary

An applicant withdrew a request to change permitted uses at 694 Washington Street; the zoning board accepted the withdrawal without prejudice.

The Zoning Board of Appeals accepted a withdrawal without prejudice of an application to change the permitted use at 694 Washington Street.

Builder Brian Burke, appearing for the applicant, described that the applicant had previously sought to expand a 300‑square‑foot building to 700 square feet and to change recorded use language to allow a broader set of lawful commercial activities. Several neighbors said they would not support an open-ended "all lawful purposes" designation. The applicant withdrew the application rather than pursue a change in use at this time.

The board recorded the withdrawal as GBA 25‑17 and the vote to allow the withdrawal was taken by voice; the chair recorded "Aye." No further action was taken on the property at this hearing.
