Quincy ZBA approves owner’s addition and garage relocation at 43 Sunrise Road
Summary
The board granted a variance for a two‑story rear addition, covered front porch and relocation of the garage for property owner Daniel Memo at 43 Sunrise Road, with the garage acknowledged as 13 feet wide and DPW conditions noted.
The Quincy Zoning Board of Appeals approved a variance for an addition and garage relocation at 43 Sunrise Road on Oct. 7.
Property owner Daniel Memo described a two‑story addition with an attached garage, a covered front (farmer’s) porch roughly 6 by 24 feet and a second‑floor bedroom with a walkout deck. Discussion focused on garage width and placement; one board member suggested shrinking the garage slightly to provide more side‑yard space. Memo said the new garage would attach to the house and not extend further toward the lot line.
DPW submitted written comments asking for plans showing existing site conditions, utilities, grading and drainage details, surface runoff treatment and submission of elevation certificates where properties are in flood zones. The board acknowledged those DPW conditions during deliberations.
A motion to accept the variance (ZBA2551) as presented — with acknowledgment that the garage will be 13 feet wide — was made and carried by voice vote. The board asked the applicant to file final plans with staff.
