59 Washington Street Minor Subdivision
Description
The church wants to split its 40,083-square-foot property into two lots — one with an existing house, one with the church buildings — and needs a pile of variances for lot size, setbacks, coverage, and zero parking. Continued to October 5.
Impact summary
Could free up the existing house as a separate residential lot in the Local Historic District while keeping the church campus intact.
