Zoning board approves conversion of 1015 Prospect Avenue to two units with parking condition
Summary
A special exception to convert 1015 Prospect Avenue into a two‑unit property was approved 5–0 by the Zoning Hearing Board contingent on the applicant providing three off‑street parking spaces in the rear.
The Zoning Hearing Board granted a special exception to convert 1015 Prospect Avenue from a single‑family to a two‑unit dwelling, imposing a condition that the applicant provide three off‑street parking spaces in the rear. The applicant told the board the property includes an additional dwelling unit in the back and that separate entrances exist for the front units. Zoning staff confirmed the parcel has historically been registered as a two‑unit in the rental inspection record.
Board members and the applicant discussed recent changes in the parking guidelines that reduced required parking levels; the applicant agreed to provide three rear spaces as a condition of the approval. "So I'll make a motion again with the, with the 3 off street parking in the rear," a board member said. The motion passed 5–0. The approval is contingent on the applicant meeting the parking condition and securing any necessary permits and inspections.
