Commission approves duplex infill project at 408 Euclid Avenue
Summary
A conditional use permit to build one duplex (two units) at 408 Euclid Avenue was approved; applicant said the units are intended as for-sale workforce housing and the proposal passed historic-board review and staff review.
The commission approved a conditional use permit for a duplex at 408 Euclid Avenue (CUP25502) during its April 24 meeting.
Staff summary: Planning Director Dan Miller explained the site is in an R-2 medium-density residential zoning district with a low-density future land-use designation; the Comprehensive Plan requires a conditional-use review when duplexes are proposed in a low-density future land-use designation. Staff and the historic board reviewed the proposal and found it consistent with applicable standards; the school district exempted the duplex from concurrency review because it is four units or fewer.
Applicant remarks: Ross Halley, the applicant, said he supports infill development and described the project as an opportunity to provide affordable workforce housing and said the units are intended to be for sale, not rental.
Commission action: After the staff presentation and applicant remarks, the commission approved the conditional use permit by roll call vote. Staff noted that the project must meet all City of Leesburg code and building-permit requirements before construction.
Ending: The approved CUP allows the applicant to proceed to permit review and building permits, subject to usual development standards and inspections.
