Summary
Summary of formal actions: minutes approved; variances granted at 81 Teresa Drive and 55106 Bird Road; contingent variances approved to support Move In New York application; fence variance at 23–27 Washington denied.
The zoning board recorded the following formal actions during its Nov. 19, 2025 meeting:
- Approval of minutes from the Sept. 24, 2025 meeting (motion by Sebastian, second by Turner), vote 4‑0. - Variance approved for 81 Teresa Drive to allow a lean‑to (motion by Sebastian, second by Tom Stapone), vote 4‑0. - Contingent approval of area variances to support the city’s application to the New York State Homes and Community Renewal Move In New York program (motion recorded; vote 4‑0). Conveyance of lots to LHDC would be contingent on program award and identification of qualified buyers. - Variance approved for a 30x64 garage at 55106 Bird Road (motion carried 4‑0). - Variance request to place a 6‑foot fence close to the sidewalk at 23–27 Washington Street denied due to lack of survey/site plan and safety sight‑line concerns (motion to deny carried 4‑0).
These votes reflect the board’s current positions but several items require follow‑up administrative steps: applicants must submit final drawings and permits, and the Move In New York application depends on a competitive state award.
