ZBA 26-13 — Duplexes at Lippincott & Genesee Rd.

Burton

Description

The applicants proposed two phased duplexes with four-bedroom, two-bath units renting around $2,000 a month on a corner lot vacant for about a century — but the board and neighbors said no to multifamily in the single-family zone.

Impact summary

The Zoning Board of Appeals denied it on Jul 16, 2026.

No new rentals or extra traffic at that busy corner — neighbors' property values and quiet streets stay as they are for now.
