26-UV-01 — Erbert second detached house variance

Description

A variance of use to build a second detached house on the lot while the owner lives in the existing 160-year-old home until the new one is finished; the old house must be demolished within 90 days after occupancy.

Impact summary

The family avoids a double move and the neighborhood gains a new house, with the dilapidated 160-year-old structure guaranteed to come down shortly after.
