Variance · Planning application
Variance sought to reorient parking in 1920s detached garage with new alley-facing doors
The owner wants relief from parking and backup-space rules to change how vehicles enter an existing garage, adding doors on its north side. The Historic Preservation Commission approved the exterior changes June 29; the variance is in review.
