ZBA approves rear addition and small FAR increase at 83 Beechmont Drive
Architect Paige Lewis presented a two-story rear addition and interior renovations for 83 Beechmont Drive that increase the property's floor-area ratio slightly (from 0.322 to 0.336). Lewis said the addition is at the rear, will not change the front façade, and aims to improve the kitchen layout and family-room connection.

Board members applied the five-factor test, concluded the increase is modest and unlikely to affect drainage, light or neighborhood character, and voted to approve the area variance. The board then approved two administrative 12-month extension requests elsewhere on the calendar and adjourned the meeting.
