Decision: Approved

Hearing: Staff described the proposal, including the location of the property, the site plan, and photos of the site. Staff provided an analysis of the six (6) criteria and the reasons for a recommendation for denial of the Variance. Staff noted that no comments were received in favor or in opposition to the request. The applicant was present and disagreed with the staff's recommendation of denial stating they were unaware of the addition being non-compliant as they obtained a building permit.
