Boundary Adjustment Application 25-0002 (Appeal 26-0001)

Description

A lot line adjustment to shift steep slopes onto the southern parcel so the flatter northern parcel could later be split into two homesites, with a promised permanent open space easement and hiking trail. The Council denied the appeal 3-1, keeping the staff denial in place.

Impact summary

The City Council denied it on May 5, 2026.

No homes get split off the parcel for now; the applicants can still build a main house and ADU under existing rights, and the hillside stays as-is for neighboring residents worried about slope stability.
