Zoning board tables rooming-house request for 532 North Beaver, asks owner for room measurements
Loading...
Summary
Owner Lido Perez sought variances to convert 532 North Beaver St. to a rooming house with smaller room sizes and reduced parking; the board tabled the case and asked the applicant to return with precise room measurements and clarified drawings.
The City of York Zoning Hearing Board on April 2026 tabled an application by owner Lido Perez seeking variances to allow a rooming house at 532 North Beaver St., including permission for rooms smaller than the 250-square-foot standard and a reduction in required off-street parking from four spaces to two.
Perez told the board he is an owner-occupant and would manage the property full time; he said the house was originally built as a single-family dwelling but has multiple rooms he believes are suitable to rent. Perez estimated there could be three or four rentable rooms and said one small room might measure about 8 by 8 feet, though he did not provide exact dimensions.
Board members repeatedly noted that the application did not include room dimensions and urged Perez to return with measurements tied to the photos submitted with the application. The board discussed options — for example, approving only larger rooms and excluding the smallest bedroom — but concluded it could not rule without precise dimensions.
A board member moved to table the application to allow Perez to return next month with measured room sizes and clarified drawings; the motion passed on a consent voice vote.
