Steve Lynch, Project Planner, presented the staff report. He summarized the proposed application highlighting the use, lot coverage, site layout and architecture. He noted that the application is being considered by the Commission because the addition will result in a 47% FAR where 45% is allowed without a public hearing. Staff was able to make the required Findings and recommended approval of the Design Review subject to Conditions of Approval.
Chair Babcock opened the public hearing.
