A Council Variance (CV25-015) has been granted for the property at 39 Linwood Avenue to allow the development of two single-unit dwellings on one lot within an Apartment Residential District (ARLD). This approval facilitates the construction of a new rear dwelling unit, specifically a carriage house, situated above a detached garage. The variance provides relief from multiple city code provisions, including allowing two single-unit dwellings on a single lot, reducing required parking from four to two spaces, maintaining a reduced lot width of 42 feet instead of 50 feet, permitting the carriage house to front on a rear public alley, and waiving the rear yard requirement for the carriage house. Both the Near East Area Commission and City Departments recommended approval, citing consistency with the residential character of the area and similar urban infill developments. The decision is conditioned upon obtaining all necessary permits and a Certificate of Occupancy for the proposed carriage house, and adhering to the submitted site plans.
