Conservation Overlay District variance at 805 University Avenue
Summary
The Abington family needed a variance to the Conservation Overlay District's three-bedroom cap to build a six-bedroom family home at 805 University Avenue. The board reversed the Planning Commission's 5-1 denial after hearing the architect argue the corner lot borders other zoning districts without the restriction.
