| PROPOSAL |
A request for a Coastal Development Permit, Use Permit and Variance in conjunction with the remodeling and additions to an existing two-level 3,622 square foot home. 875 square feet of new living area is proposed with an additional 32 square feet in a garage expansion. The completed project would total 5,029 square feet of living area and 531 square foot in attached garages. The Coastal Development Permit is required for the improvements to the existing home with associated site grading. The Variance is required for reduced front setback of 8 feet, where the Zoning Code would require 13.4 feet for new construction utilizing the average adjoining setbacks criteria. The existing structure has a nonconforming front setback of 8.67 feet. A Use Permit is required to permit over-height wall of 6.5 feet in the front setback area where a maximum height of 3.5 feet is otherwise required. A Use Permit is also required to allow the required third off street parking space to be uncovered. |
