Summary

The ZBA granted a variance for a 12-foot rear addition at 35 Meadow Street; neighbors spoke in favor and DPW reported no comments.

The Quincy Zoning Board of Appeals granted a variance for a single-level rear addition at 35 Meadow Street, allowing the owner's proposed living-area expansion that encroached nine inches into the rear yard setback.

Co-owner Kyle Costa described the project as a rear living-room addition roughly 12 feet deep across the width of the house; the application sought relief of nine inches from the rear-yard requirement. "We're really just looking to get more space in the house," Costa said, noting he had consulted neighbors and that support letters were provided.

Neighbors Debbie Riley (9 Landgrain Street) and Mike Kelly (10 Meadow Street) spoke in favor of the project. DPW reviewed the submission and reported no comments.

The board took a motion to grant the variance for ZBA 2488 (35 Meadow Street). The motion was seconded and passed on a voice vote; the chair recorded the motion as granted.

The applicant was instructed to file the approved plans to proceed with building-permit review.
