Building Lot Variance Appealed To Court
Six property owners from Greens Farms road and South Maple avenue have appealed to the Court of Common Pleas in Bridgeport for reversal of a building lot variance granted earlier by the Zoning Board of Appeals. The case, returnable in June, targets the April 13 decision approving Helen MacIntyre's two acre site for a building lot, contending it lowers nearby property values, increases congestion, and clashes with zoning intent.
