LDL VAR 2026-33 — Davis Variance

Description

A 998-square-foot two-story garage with an apartment above, just 2 feet from the side lot line instead of 5. Staff recommended approval, with a no-short-term-rental condition backed by the county's 1997 ordinance; the HOA also supports it.

Impact summary

Minimal neighborhood impact — the structure sits 32 feet from the nearest neighbor's garage and the applicant agreed to the rental ban.
