MEJ Properties sought approval to subdivide a 30,953-square-foot through-lot at 165 Summit Avenue into three separate tax lots to help the owner finance renovations for a historic vacant home. Residents strongly opposed the plan, citing persistent flooding, street parking shortages, and concerns over future overdevelopment.
