The Zoning Board of Appeals denied a request to allow three balconies above an existing garage at 1 Edwin Street after the applicant did not appear for the hearing.
The Quincy Zoning Board of Appeals voted to deny an application seeking approval for three balconies attached to townhouses above a garage at 1 Edwin Street after the applicant did not appear for the hearing.
Chairman Martin Akins opened the item, noting the applicant had been asked to attend and did not appear. An unnamed board member moved to deny the application; the motion carried with the board voting in favor. The board said the application had been before them previously and the applicant had failed to appear at the prior hearing as well.
The board did not reach the merits of the proposed balconies because no representative was present to present or respond to questions. The board recorded that applicants were told to appear and had not done so.
The denial leaves the applicant the option to refile or request reconsideration under the board’s rules, but no further action was taken at the meeting.
Ending: The board moved on to the next agenda item following the vote.
