Neighbors tell ZBA they oppose recovery home, citing neighborhood character
Several neighbors addressed the ZBA during public testimony, urging the board to preserve the single‑family character of the R‑2 district and raising concerns about proximity to a dog park and children. One resident said, "We don't we don't need anything else," expressing opposition to additional group‑living uses in the neighborhood.

Speakers asked the board to ensure whatever decision is made protects the neighborhood's character. The board noted those comments and said the continuance will give residents another opportunity to comment after the board has reviewed the full administrative record and any relevant attorney analysis.
