LNN-  An application was presented to build 9 houses on Spruce Street between Vine Street and Washington Avenue's (across Bais Kaila). Current zoning laws permit 2 homes on these lots. Many neighbors were at the meeting in opposition to the application, mainly due to traffic congestion and safety concerns. The hearing lasted over 2 hours. The board then announced they will continue hearing the application at next month's meeting.

  1. It's ridiculous that people need to come out and fight to prevent a rezoning from 2 to 9 houses. The default should be that the zoning stays as-is, and the developer needs to make a strong case why it should be changed (which of course there's not good reason to do).
