Summary

Jeffrey Melucci proposed converting a former office to a residential unit; the board said the application cannot proceed without written owner authorization and asked staff to investigate alley access and potential easements.

Prospective buyer Jeffrey Melucci presented a concept to convert a former office into an apartment with a full kitchen and bathroom and use of existing rear access. The board recorded no objections to the conversion but noted several procedural issues that must be resolved before the application can advance.

Specifically, board members said ownership has not been established and the application cannot proceed without written authorization from the property owner. The board also directed staff to investigate alley access and potential easement issues tied to the rear access.

No vote was recorded on the conversion during the Aug. 5 meeting; the item will return to the board once ownership and access issues are clarified.
