I do this kind of law. I would need to know more about your situation, and look at the documents involved, to tell you what your options are. It sounds like you applied for a variance and these restrictions were placed on you.
Give me a call if you like. I would be happy to help you out.

Re: town zoning board running my business
Zoning Boards frequently overstep their bounds. Sometimes that can be used to advantage. To tell if there is an opportunity to do that here, I would have to have more information. Of particular interest is the source of the restriction and, if it is from a use variance, what the normal permitted use of the land would have been. Some investigation by one of us is in order. If I can help, let me know.
