Commission approves infill at 940 South Douglas Avenue with conditions
Summary
The commission approved a proposed infill house at 940 South Douglas Avenue with staff conditions including a survey-based site plan and limits on curb cuts and front‑yard parking.
The Historic Zoning Commission approved a proposed infill dwelling at 940 South Douglas Avenue, subject to staff-recommended conditions that include a survey‑based site plan to verify front setback, removal of one curb cut, extension of the remaining driveway to at least the midpoint of the infill, and material conditions.
Staff said the lot is deep (about 260 feet) and the existing site has two curb cuts; staff recommended removal of one curb cut to avoid front‑yard parking and asked that a revised site plan based on a survey be submitted prior to issuance of a preservation permit. Staff found the 1½‑story infill’s ridge height and primary width appropriate to the Waverly‑Belmont overlay and recommended approval with standard conditions regarding finished floor height, HVAC location and materials.
No applicant representative attended; the commission opened and closed the public hearing with no public testimony and approved the application on a recorded motion.
Conditions attached to approval require a survey‑based site plan prior to permit issuance, removal of one curb cut, extension of the remaining driveway to the house midpoint and prohibiting front‑yard parking pads.
