During a recent meeting of the Nashua Zoning Board, a proposal for a new three-car garage was presented, highlighting the need for additional storage and workspace for a local family. The homeowners expressed their desire to accommodate their passion for working on sports cars, as well as to create a dedicated area for their annual Christmas light show, which requires significant storage for props.
The couple currently has an attached two-car garage, but they noted that it has become increasingly difficult to utilize due to space constraints. The proposed garage would not only restore their ability to park but also provide essential workspace for car maintenance and holiday preparations. The homeowners emphasized that while the garage may appear large on paper, it would fit comfortably within their yard, set back over 100 feet from the road.
In a show of community engagement, the homeowners reported having spoken with their neighbors about the project, ensuring that local concerns were addressed. The board members were invited to ask questions, indicating a collaborative approach to the zoning process.
This proposal reflects a growing trend in Nashua where residents seek to enhance their properties to better suit their lifestyles while maintaining open communication with their neighbors. The outcome of this discussion will be closely watched, as it could set a precedent for similar projects in the community, balancing personal needs with zoning regulations.
