Board approves conversion of garage to one‑bed unit at 504 Wells Spring Road
Summary
Jefferson County board approved a 2.09‑foot side‑setback variance so the applicant can convert an existing garage on a preexisting slab into a 1‑bedroom, 1‑bath unit at 504 Wells Spring Road.
The Jefferson County Board approved a 2.09‑foot variance for a side setback at 504 Wells Spring Road to permit the conversion of an existing garage into a one‑bedroom, one‑bath dwelling unit.
An applicant described the project as a change of use for a preexisting garage and confirmed the building’s footprint would not change: “Footprint's staying the same. We're building the deck off that left side,” the applicant said. Commissioners raised questions about the structure’s history and existing slab; after discussion, a motion to approve the variance was made and seconded and passed by voice vote.
The approval allows the owner to pursue permits for the conversion; staff noted the footprint would remain unchanged and standard inspection and permitting processes would apply.
