1356 W. Cienega Avenue lot split and two-story homes

Summary

The council approved splitting one large lot into two, each with a two-story house plus an ADU. Neighbors on private Kimberly Avenue fear parking shortages, lost privacy, fire access problems, and construction impacts they say the city can't regulate later. Councilmembers said state housing law (Housing Crisis Act/SB 9) left them no legal path to deny a compliant project.
