The Belmont Zoning Board decided not to invoke safe harbor wiith the Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) at their Jan. 21 meeting which means an application for a comprehensive permit for a 40B project in Belmont will move forward.
Build Wise Belmont, which represents the abutters of the project, submitted a General Land Area Minimum (GLAM) calculation to the ZBA on Jan. 15 showing Belmont has 1.524% of land devoted to subsidized housing which would allow the town to invoke safe harbor and deny the comprehensive permit application sought by Florida-based Comprehensive Land Holdings, LLC to build 12 four-bedroom rental units on a 23,500 square foot lot located at 91 Beatrice Circle.
