Robert Milanese from Barrister Land Development Corp, who is under contract to purchase the 3-acre property, has requested the Dunkerhook Road property be rezoned to allow 24 town houses, the paper said.

Barrister’s proposal would preserve the historic home, however borough officials are not in agreement on whether town houses are a good use for the property, the report said.

The council will revisit the issue at its next work session on Oct. 6.
