27 Reservoir case continued after staff reports front‑setback parking; property owners told to pursue survey to legalize parking

At the Oct. 22 hearing, staff said a van was parked in the front setback at 27 Reservoir and that the property owner had been engaged earlier in the process to secure an updated survey that might allow legalizing the front parking.

Mr. Hall told the hearing the vehicle is “pretty close to the property line” and that the right‑of‑way location complicates where legal parking could be sited. Hall said the owner had previously been engaged and was under contract to update the survey, but more recently staff had not had contact and the owner had not responded to recent outreach. The file lists a potential fine that Hall described as rising to about $9,000 if unresolved.

Staff recommended, and the hearing officer agreed, to continue the matter for one month to give the owners time to provide a survey and any DPW approvals needed to legalize the parking. The case was continued to Dec. 3, 2025.

Outcome: matter continued. Staff will attempt further contact with the owners and will review any survey/DPW documentation submitted before the December hearing.
