Lowell Zoning Board of Appeals - November 9, 2026

The Lowell Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on November 9, 2026, considering several zoning applications. The board denied Mullin Construction’s variance request to build a single-family home on the undersized lot at 384 Butman Road; the vote was split, with three members supporting and three opposing. The board approved the Markley Group’s illuminated-sign special permit at 2 Prince Avenue, with conditions including an 8:00 p.m. cutoff for illumination of the large wall sign and submission of sign-placement/sightline information. It unanimously approved the variance for an addition at 65 Garden Road, conditioned on ensuring the project causes no additional runoff to neighboring properties.

The special-permit application for an internally illuminated sign at 524 Chauncey Street was continued to January 11, 2027. The board also approved its September 26 minutes and adjourned. No procurement activity, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified.
