Background
The property currently contains a 2,145 ft.? residential property with a detached garage constructed in 1963 and has a harsh spill slope with minimal vegetation.
New Single-Family Residence
The proposed project will remove the existing structure and construct a new single story residence with approximately 6,200 s.f. of livable area.
