Summary

A letter from nearby residents Paul and Maureen Donovan said they do not object to the proposed subdivision of St. Peter's Church property at 525 Broadway but warned they would oppose future variances that would allow non-residential development beyond R-10 residential uses.

Chair Margaret read into the record a letter from Paul and Maureen Donovan of 530 Broadway stating they "have no objection to the proposed subdivision" at St. Peter's Church but reserving the right to "vigorously object to any future requested variances intended to build anything other than R-10 residential housing on this property."

The letter was entered into the record before the applicant presentation and was cited by the board during deliberations as evidence of neighborhood awareness; no members of the public spoke during the public-comment period on this item, and the chair closed public comment before the board proceeded to findings and votes.
