Summary

Council unanimously approved Ordinance No. 2025-031 amending the official zoning map and granted Variance VA2025-002 to allow reduced rear and side setbacks for a 15x20 storage building at 404 West Lee Street.

At the Jan. 15 meeting the Brooklet City Council voted unanimously to approve the second reading of Ordinance No. 2025-031, which amends and restates the city’s Official Zoning Map. The measure passed 5-0 with Councilman Brad Anderson moving and Councilwoman Sheila Wentz seconding the motion.

The council also considered Variance Application VA2025-002, filed by property owner Russell Davis for 404 West Lee Street (Parcel B03 000052 000). Davis requested a rear setback reduction from 10 feet to 5 feet and a side setback reduction from 35 feet to 25 feet to permit construction of a 15-by-20-foot (300-square-foot) storage building; he said his lot is shallower than neighboring lots and that the adjacent property owner did not object. The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval and the council adopted that recommendation by a 5-0 vote (motion by Brad Anderson; second by Hubert K. Roughton).
