LIVE: Quincy Zoning Board of Appeals: October 27, 2026

The Quincy Zoning Board of Appeals meeting of October 27, 2026, heard several residential development and business-use applications; no procurement, contracts, or spending decisions were identified. For 95 Rockland Street, the board allowed the applicant to withdraw the subdivision request and proceed with work on the existing structures, subject to conditions including a three-foot fence, no commercial vehicles or heavy equipment, no obstruction of the private way, and compliance with the latest plans. The board also allowed the 119 Bellevue Road subdivision application to be withdrawn without prejudice, and the 32 Grogan Avenue subdivision and new-home application was withdrawn without prejudice after neighbors raised concerns about lot size, parking, drainage, and neighborhood impacts.

The board approved the proposed change of use for Total Body Boxing at 9 Ash Street, conditioned on the applicant providing Inspectional Services with satisfactory proof of rights to at least four additional parking spaces by November 26; the petition would be denied if that condition is not met. It also approved a variance and special permit for a three-story flood-compliant residence at 73 Pawsey Street, where the applicant cited updated building-code freeboard requirements. Other discussion focused on zoning compliance, flood risk, parking, and neighborhood impacts.
