Zoning board approves shed in Pilgrim Lane front yard; applicant told to expect written decision
Summary
The board granted a variance allowing a 10x20 shed in the front yard at 5 Pilgrim Lane, finding the location acceptable and voting in favor after brief public comment expressing concern about green space.
Edward Patterson told the board he had installed a 10 by 20 shed to store lawn equipment and that it sits about 7 feet from the property line and 71 feet from the curb. The board questioned sight lines and whether the structure would be an eyesore; Patterson and a neighbor said the placement would not harm aesthetics.
After brief public comment the board voted to approve the variance. The chair said the applicant would receive a written decision within 45 days. The board recorded that the vote was 2–1 in another matter earlier that night but voiced no split on this item.
