V14-24, LLR04-24 — Robinson Family Trust, 19 & 20 Springhill Lane Lot Line Revision and Variance

Lafayette

Description

An appeal by neighbor Michael Hoffman of the Planning Commission's approval of a lot line revision and a variance for a 120-square-foot garden shed 25 feet from the northern property line. The Council approved the lot line adjustment but denied the variance, meaning the shed may need to move or come down.

Impact summary

The lot line fix resolves a substandard 2.96-acre lot; the variance denial leaves the shed owners weighing relocation, demolition, or a future rezone to R-20 like the rest of the street.
