Board continues 57 Niagara Ave appeal to Jan. 6 after missing-plan pages raised
Summary
The board continued an appeal at 57 Niagara Ave (Valdez v. DBI) to Jan. 6 so Planning can finish an unauthorized‑dwelling‑unit screening and permit holder can provide a complete plan set; DBI/Planning may perform a site visit at their discretion.
The Board of Appeals continued appeal No. 20‑? (Steve Valdez v. Department of Building Inspection/Planning) concerning 57 Niagara Ave to Jan. 6, 2021 after the appellant said pages of the plans were missing from the board packet and requested more time.
Planning staff (Scott Sanchez) told the board that an unauthorized dwelling‑unit screening had not been completed; commissioners discussed whether a site visit should be required. The board’s motion continued the matter to Jan. 6 to allow Planning to finish its screening; DBI and Planning may do a site visit at their discretion and the permit holder must supply a full set of plans to the appellant. The motion passed 5–0.
The continuance provides time for staff review and any limited fact‑finding (records screening or a site visit) before the Board considers the appeal again.
