The property is located in Beachwood.  The existing house is situated on piers and the proposal is to lift up the house and pour a 4 ft foundation.  They are also proposing a 10’ x 5’ addition to access the crawl space under the house.  

Member Hobbs asked what the percentage of lot coverage was.  Currently the existing lot coverage is .99% with the proposed addition the total lot coverage will be 1.04%.
