The existing 840-square foot (sq.ft.), one-story-over basement, single-family residence is approximately 14 feet tall. The proposed addition would expand the existing site development to contain two dwelling units (approximately 1,299 sq.ft. and 2,695 sq.ft. = 3,994 total sq.ft., a net increase for the site of approximately 3,154 sq.ft.)

The finished height of the existing building would be approximately 21 feet to the midpoint of the pitched roof. The finished height of the addition at the rear would be approximately 30 feet to the top of the sloped roof. The project would modify the front fa�ade of the existing building to accommodate a new entrance and a nine-foot-wide garage opening. The approximately 3,250 sq. ft. project site, (Assessor's Block 3619, Lot 077), is located on the east side of Chattanooga Street, on the block bounded by Church, 21st, Dolores and 22nd Streets. The site is within an RH-2 (Residential, House, Two-Family) Use District and a 40-X Height and Bulk District.
