The Bolton Zoning Board of Appeals on July 13, 2026, voted unanimously to table a variance request from Joseph Costanzo to reduce the left side yard setback at 43 Deming Road from 20 feet to 13 feet to allow construction of a 600-square-foot attached garage.
The board, chaired by William Pike, recorded the item on its agenda as No. BZA-26-1. Costanzo was listed in the minutes as the applicant; the minutes do not record additional testimony or board findings in support of or against the variance before the motion to postpone.
Member Jonathan Treat moved to table the application to the board's August 2026 meeting; Member Athina Loveland seconded. The motion carried 4–0–0. Members present and recorded as voting in favor were Chair William Pike, Member Anne Decker, Member Jonathan Treat and Member Athina Loveland. Member Joshua Machnik was absent.
The board approved the meeting minutes from March 9, 2026, at the start of the session and held no public-comment items during the Resident's Forum. The meeting convened at 7:08 p.m. and adjourned at 7:57 p.m.
No statutory references, site plans, or written findings are included in these minutes; the transcript/minutes record only the variance request and the board's decision to table further action. The application will return to the Zoning Board at its August 2026 meeting for continued consideration unless the applicant withdraws or the board takes another action at that time.
