The Board of Standards and Appeals is a five-member body that hears cases from developers and architects looking for relief through zoning variances.

If Perlmutter takes the job, she will succeed Meenakshi Srinivasan who was appointed to head the Landmarks Preservation Commission in May. [Crain’s] — Claire Moses
