Zoning Board of Appeals · Meeting of July 22, 2026

NAHANT — The Nahant Zoning Board of Appeals approved renovations at 93 Fox Hill Road and continued a contested rebuild case at 10 Fallon Way to July 28. Board member Cameron Merrill chaired the Fox Hill Road hearing after Chair Jocelyn Campbell recused herself, and members voted 5-0 twice to grant a Section 6 nonconformity finding and a special permit for lot-coverage and setback relief sought by applicant Janet Collins. At 10 Fallon Way, attorney Lisa McGloin, representing neighbor Nancy Fox, argued the proposed parking space falls short of the required 18-foot turning radius by about six and a half feet and showed video of stormwater pooling near her client's basement in ordinary rain.

Neighbors Susan Sherry and Victoria Fortino of 6 Wilson Avenue pressed for a joint slope-erosion fix, while member Scott Ofrias said revisions to the plan felt "like a moving goalpost." The board continued the matter to Tuesday, July 28, at 3:30 p.m., voting 5-0 to adjourn.
