Documentation File with associated plans, photos and required documentation
Representing Don Bracken, Bracken Engineering, Inc. — Reviewed the site plan and the project. Looking to have a single curb cut
with a shared access and parking area. Explained how the parking is being laid out to ensure there is adequate parking for
both Lot A & Lot B. Doesn't appear it would have any adverse affect on the neighborhood.
Public None
Discussion Toole — Asked why the structure wasn't designed in such a way as to preclude the need for additional parking.
Bracken — It is a simple desire to have the extra bedroom.
Botticelli — All we're talking about is that one parking spot on the other lot.
Toole — They created the lot and he believes they should have built accordingly.
McCarthy — She doesn't have a problem with this; there's enough space available.
Motion Motion to Grant the relief as requested. (made by: Koseatac) (seconded by: Botticellt)
