HomeMy WebLinkAbout700 REMINGTON CHANGES OF USE - FDP180025 - DECISION - HEARING OFFICER DECISION2. The FDP complies with the applicable General Development Standards contained in
Article 3 of the Code.
a. The FDP complies with Section 3.2.2(K)(1)0), Required Off -Street Parking,
because the street -fronting home is an approved extra occupancy rental house requiring
0.75 off-street parking spaces per tenant, or 3 off-street parking spaces, and the FDP
provides 5 off-street parking spaces between the buildings.
3. The FDP complies with all applicable NCB standards contained in Article 4 of the Code.
a. The FDP complies with Section 4.9(E)(3)(a), Carriage House, because the FDP
includes 4 parking spaces for the existing extra -occupancy rental and 1 additional space
for the carriage house.
b. The FDP complies with Section 4.9(E)(6), Access, because the FDP will continue
to access off-street parking from the alley.
4. The Modification of Standard (Section 4.9(D)(1), Density) meets the applicable
requirements of Section 2.8.2(H)(4) of the Code:
a. The Modification of Standard is not detrimental to the public good, because: no
exterior building modifications are proposed; the previous use (hair salon) was a more
intensive use than the residential use proposed; and the Old Town Neighborhoods Plan
encourages carriage houses in this area.
b. The Modification of Standard will only diverge from the standard in a nominal and
inconsequential way, because the FDP includes a building and lot pattern that is consistent
with the pattern of the neighborhood.
DECISION
Based on the foregoing findings, the Hearing Officer hereby approves the FDP and
Modification of Standard as submitted.
