The applicant, Perennial Housing Partners LLC, has proposed the conversion of an extended stay hotel into a multi-unit residential development comprising 99 units. The request includes multiple variances to reflect the as-built conditions, such as reduced drive aisle width, driveway width, maneuvering area, parking lot shade trees, and the number of parking spaces. The project is consistent with the residential pattern of the neighborhood and aligns with the guidelines set by the Far North Area Plan. The variances allow for the site to maintain its existing layout while accommodating the multi-unit residential use.

Why it Matters

This decision enables the adaptive reuse of an existing hotel structure, providing more housing units in a key area while maintaining the neighborhood’s design standards and promoting residential growth.
