Council OKs variance for 800 sq ft accessory unit at 60 E Norfolk
Summary
Rebecca Gehrer received council approval to build an 800 sq ft mother-in-law suite at 60 E Norfolk as an accessory building limited to family use; council cited one-family dwelling charter restrictions and approved the variance unanimously.
The Eastborough City Council unanimously approved a variance allowing an 800-square-foot accessory unit at 60 E Norfolk intended for family use. Rebecca Gehrer requested the exception to accommodate a mother-in-law suite for her parents; Council Member Fred Gorges moved to approve the variance, stating it must be limited to family occupants, and the motion passed without dissent.
Council members noted the city's charter ordinance designates the area as one-family dwelling, and the city architect had asked the council to review the request because similar accessory units exist in the community. The approval was recorded as limited to an accessory building for family members only; the council did not modify the ordinance itself.
