Zoning Petitions in Discussion with Land Use Committee:
Zoning Petitions in Discussion with Land Use Committee:
6801 Stanley Rd -- Claudia and Jose Aboytes, represented by Dave Gilman, seeks to split the lot into a 0.5 acre and a 1.5 acre lot. A 5000 sq ft house would be built on the larger lot and that would legalize an existing barn that is too large and too tall. The existing house would be enlarged to 1200 sq ft to meet the D3 standards. They also seek a variance to legally establish the existing detached garage which is 5.6 ft from the lot line when 6 ft is required.
STATUS: [2026-CVR,CPL-810 ] The petition is scheduled for hearing on April 9 - We will file to move the hearing to May 14.

That petition was withdrawn on July 8 with the understanding that they would file for a rezoning. That rezoning has not been filed. The site continues to operate as a CBD store illegally. A legal file is now open and a pre-trial conference has been scheduled for Mar 18.
STATUS: [ ] The Variance petition was withdrawn, but the petitioner has failed to file for a rezoning.
