Summary of the decision

SE-15-04-041 — Morris Family Trust

Request: Special Exception in the A-2 zoning district to construct an attached Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to existing residence for family use. (Note: The ADU will contain 1,256 sq. ft.) N.B. Spoke to Applicant 12/21/15. They do NOT wish to expand the building footprint as approved by BZA. They now want to contain the ADU within the EXISTING home footprint. This is LESS intense and is OK to permit.

Decision: Approved

Hearing: The applicant is requesting a special exception to construct an attached Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to the existing residence.

The BZA clarified the parcel size and location of the separation between the ADU and the main house.
