Site Description and Surrounding Land Uses The subject property is an interior lot, identified as Lot 72 in Block 146, located at 15 Alan Street between Valley Way and Mississippi Avenue.

The property is currently used as a residential property with a garage in the rear yard. The garage is 1.5 stories with a height of 15 ft. and measures approximately 18.5 ft. by 18.5 ft. The property also includes a paved driveway from the street to the garage. The subject property is surrounded on all sides by residential uses. 3. Proposed Project The applicant, Max Grossman, is proposing to expand the existing garage from a 1.5- story garage with a footprint measuring 18.5’ x 18.5’, or 342.25 square feet, to a 2-story garage with a footprint measuring 18.5’ x 27’, or 499.5 square feet. The horizontal expansion will extend into the existing driveway area. The proposed height will increase from 15 ft. to 20.6ft.
