• The zoning board adjourned because half of them didn't think they could issue a variance for property that was not at the owner's request. They said they were going to consult town counsel. My real estate attorney wasn't too helpful during the buying process and I'm reluctant to ask her advice now.

• That is true. A variance request must be submitted by the owner or authorized agent of the owner. One can't file a variance request for someone else.

• Then go back to the zoning board and tell them that you wish to file a formal objection for the record. And that if such a variance is granted you will have no recourse but to take the matter up in court.
  Also check the local city ordinances (Section 1 8-16) and become familiar with them.

• What did your real estate attorney say when you asked this question? Or what did the zoning board say when you filed your complaint/objection?
