Overview: The Amherst Historic District Commission recently convened to deliberate on several property applications, with the most issue being a proposed three-unit structure on Fearing Street. While some applications, such as exterior lighting on a garage on Mclellan and window replacements on Sunset, were approved with relative ease and public support, the Fearing Street project sparked debate regarding its scale, design, and compatibility with the historic neighborhood.
