Duxbury Zoning Board Continues Railroad Avenue Affordable Housing Hearing to July 13

DUXBURY — June 27, 2023 — Duxbury's Zoning Board of Appeals continued a hearing on a proposed 12-unit housing complex at 50 Railroad Ave., with the matter set to resume July 13. The development would include three units qualifying as affordable under the state's low- and moderate-income housing definition. The Duxbury Affordable Housing Trust voiced support, citing the site's proximity to downtown amenities and the proposed building's exterior compatibility with surrounding properties. The town's Design Review Board raised concerns about the structure's size relative to neighboring commercial buildings, a dispute that could shape any conditions attached to a final decision.
