Commission backs Ridgeside infill subdivision with reduced setbacks and private-street layout

The commission recommended approval of Ridge Side, a 28-lot infill development at Edgewood & Hill that mixes attached and detached single-family homes at about 5.24 units/acre, granting waivers for private-street coverage, sidewalks on one side in portions of the loop, and a rear-yard reduction for three alley-loaded lots while allowing existing overhead distribution lines to remain or be relocated by the utility.
