Staff recommends approval of driveway waiver at 4161 Longview Drive
Summary
Planning staff told council a secondary curb cut at 4161 Longview Drive predates the current UDO (present on street-view since at least 2008) and does not introduce new safety concerns; staff recommended a waiver to allow two curb cuts on the corner lot.
Staff presented PZ20261634, a driveway-waiver request for 4161 Longview Drive related to an unpermitted secondary curb cut discovered through a November 2025 code-enforcement action. Staff said historical imagery and records show a secondary curb cut has existed on the site since at least 2008 and likely predates the current UDO. Because the lot is a corner parcel and the secondary curb cut does not introduce new traffic or safety concerns, staff recommended approval of the waiver.
Staff explained the proposed site plan retains three of the four existing curb cuts, converts on-site 90-degree parking to angled parking for maneuverability, and proposes sod to offset curb intrusion where applicable. Council members asked staff to confirm which curb cut was expanded; staff said the driveway (not the secondary curb cut itself) was widened from a tire-ribbon design and that legal nonconformities are being handled conservatively under the UDO.
The transcript does not record a final council vote on the waiver.
