151 Columbia Avenue subdivision and twin dwellings
Description
The owner wants to cut a through lot in half — keeping the existing single-family home on Columbia Avenue and creating two new lots on Montgomery Avenue for twin-style homes. Three variances are needed: build-to line of 15 feet, lot depth beyond the 10% rule, and permission for a twin building type not on the block. Council took no position, and the applicant subsequently withdrew the application for the April 15 ZHB hearing, which was cancelled.
Impact summary
If revived and approved, it would add two semi-detached homes on Montgomery Avenue where none currently exist on the block.
