610 Catalina Avenue garage expansion variance

Description

The owners want to shrink the north side-yard setback from eight feet to seven feet so they can turn a one-car garage into a two-car garage. Granted with one nay, after two neighbor letters and in-person testimony in opposition.

Impact summary

Adds a garage bay one foot closer to the property line than code normally allows; the neighbor worries about fire safety, privacy, and lost room to expand her own home.
