A group of 15 Avon residents appeal to the Avon Board of Zoning Appeals to require more greenery and taller trees for the buffer against the Avon Business Park along Detroit Road. They seek expanded landscaping, hedges, and better water retention, warning of potential health and welfare issues if ignored. The plan, approved Feb 10 with first phase for a 6,000 square foot office building, includes an 8-foot fence and 8-foot evergreens 10 feet apart, set at least 10 feet from homes. The residents plan to appear Feb 25 to argue their case and may pursue court action if needed.
