Each approval was made on motions with recorded makers and seconds and was followed by roll-call votes recorded by Rosalie (staff). Several items were continued or withdrawn at applicants’ request; staff noted an upcoming zoning code update that will change setback and height standards and could reduce the number of similar variance requests.
