1606 and 1608 E 9th Street Variance

Description

A variance to build 45 feet from the street instead of the 20-foot maximum, to match the older houses on the block in Millville. Approved 5-0 after pointed questions about pre-permit construction.

Impact summary

A new home on one of the last buildable lots in the block will sit in line with neighbors rather than 25 feet forward of them.
