In a recent government meeting, discussions centered around a proposal for a new residential development in the business district, which is currently home to a non-conforming structure built in 1895. The existing site spans 7,234 square feet but does not meet width and frontage requirements. The current building, including an attached garage, measures approximately 3,060 square feet.

The proposed new home will significantly increase the footprint to 4,975 square feet, marking a 60% increase in size, including the garage. Proponents of the project argue that the new construction will enhance the neighborhood, aligning more closely in size with nearby properties, specifically those measuring around 15 and 18 square feet. The meeting highlighted the potential for the new home to contribute positively to the area, despite the existing non-conforming status of the site.
