_--___-__ -- �� - _ _ .�-- about the future of the properr�� that we checked the Uuilding department for appL .ions that week for fear of what might be coming next. We were surprised to learn that the triplex was mferred to as a duplex in ihe application. The structure has three doors, three mailboxes and thme electric meters; it is listed as a triplex in the assessor s records. A check of the microfiche indicated the 1979 building permit and certificate of occupancy were for a duplex. The planning department told us R-3 zoning requires 1500 square feet per apartment. The plans list the ]ot size as 5,198 square feet, well short of the necessary 6,000 square feet. We also _ have a hard time q ��-�F understanding how the , r �' �` , = `,,T parking lot could Ue ��''��'�` configured for eight '�"` � � �" � ; f,� � spaces. x'� r y�,.'. �£ s` + , �b a x " i 'vll,.�..i We are concerned ' '"5' """' that the plan to pave the �"� ''��,, ��., : �� alley will cause departing ,"'°r��c -` cars fi�om the back four - .-< -` . �„'� = spaces to go west down s �, y the alley, a nanow and `�'__ .� ,.. '� � u �: d�ngerous route alread j. � F If they choose to back up and go east to the street, they will likely hit fences or porches as they back into the unlit alley. We are also concerned that the plans do not show any chaz�ges to the basement. We worry that the basement unit could be re-occupied after the certificate of occupancy is issued. We hope that the planning department will decide that this applicaHon does not meet their code requirements. We feel the need to keep abreast of the permit process in case tllere is an atEempt to reoccupy tt�e building as a triplex. While we realize the permit process is not suUject to puUlic review, we would I�ope the input of the neighborhood about the question of density would Ue considered along with the square footage statistics. - <-:..-- — -
