Duplex proposed by adding a second home with garage to an existing house lot
The plan would replace an old garage with a two-story building holding a tandem boat and RV garage and a roughly 1,266-square-foot wheelchair-friendly home for grandparents or a caretaker. The existing house would stay. The city is reviewing it administratively.
