290 Lincoln Avenue. A barn no moreDespite a desperate last minute attempt from neighbors for a stay of execution, the quaint old barn at 290 Lincoln Avenue is now kindling, paving the way for the construction of an additional non-owner occupied rental unit. The other thing neighbors are seriously concerned about.
The Historical Commission decided not to impose a one-year demolition delay on the barn, rumored to have once been used by poet Robert Frost (but a rumor started by a real estate agent, so not exactly a reliable source). On Monday rookie Building Commissioner Rob Morra issued a demolition permit, but neighbors filed an appeal with the Town Clerk, setting up a possible hearing with the Zoning Board of Appeals.
That deliberation, however, would only judge whether the Building Commissioner acted properly in issuing the demolition permit, and since the landowner, You-Pan Tzeng, had a legit permit in hand at the time of this morning's demolition, the episode is now moot.
Somewhere in the distance, a Barn Owl wailed.
