About 40 to 50 neighbors turned out Tuesday night when the Board of Zoning Appeals heard the Berquists' petition to rezone their property at 2048 Elm Street to allow for construction of a new home. Just one (Brian Jennings) testified in favor of the petition, while at least 15 testified in opposition -- most arguing that new construction would gravely alter the character of Academy Hill.
And the winner is...The BZA voted 5-0 to deny the petition!
Thanks to all who took the time to come and testify on behalf of preserving the character of our wonderful neighborhood. This is indeed a significant victory.
