Applicant Request
Additions; Other: Demolition- Applicant is requesting approval of demolition of 19'-7" of the house to the rear. Existing COA issued for the project (reviewed by the HZC in April 2019, COA issued 4/18/2019) refers only to the 16'-1" addition to the house's rear; however, the 19'-7" portion demolished will also be reconstructed. Therefore, the new construction will be a 35'-8" addition instead of 16' as reviewed in April.
