Historic Preservation Board approves ADU conversion at 1721 N. Cascade
Summary
The board approved Item 58 (1721 North Cascade Avenue ADU conversion) on the consent calendar without public objection; staff read appeal rights and cited a 10‑day appeal window and a $176 filing fee.
The Colorado Springs Historic Preservation Board approved a consent‑calendar item on May 5 to allow a garage‑to‑accessory dwelling unit (ADU) conversion at 1721 North Cascade Avenue.
Clerk read Item 58HIST‑26‑0002 into the record and no board member or member of the public pulled the item for separate discussion. A board member moved to approve the consent calendar, another member seconded, and the clerk conducted a roll‑call vote; the motion passed unanimously.
Staff read appeal instructions under City Unified Development Code section 7.5.0.4115. The board was advised that affected parties have 10 days from the final action (staff cited Friday, 05/15/2026) to file a notice of appeal with the city clerk and pay a $176 filing fee; appeal letters should identify the specific city code provisions the appellant believes were not adequately addressed by the board.
The consent approval is a board action eligible for appeal; any subsequent building permits or plan reviews remain subject to normal city processes.
