# Lynn Zoning Board of Appeals Meeting | October 22, 2026

The Lynn Zoning Board of Appeals meeting on October 22, 2026, addressed residential zoning and building applications. An application announced for 730 Linway and Harding Street was withdrawn without prejudice; the board agreed the filing fee could be applied to a new submission, with the petitioner responsible for a new advertising fee. A subsequent request for a small addition to an existing nonconforming home was granted. The board continued applications for 72 Woodman Street, 60 Grove Street, and 11 Chapman Place to November 17, requesting revised plans clarifying items such as pedestrian access, structural support, landscaping, driveway and parking dimensions, and permeable versus impervious surfaces. The Woodman Street proposal involved a three-family dwelling and included a proposed inclusionary-zoning payment in lieu calculated at more than $30,000; no decision was made on that application.

The board granted a special permit for Avanza Multi Services to use part of 313 Eastern Avenue as an appointment-based office, subject to operating-hour and appointment-only stipulations. It also granted a special permit for dormers and additional rooms at 104 Empire Street, with a stipulation that the addition contain no kitchen. No contracts, purchasing decisions, or public procurement activity were identified; the meeting focused on land-use approvals for private residential and business projects.
