O'Hara Rear Yard Deck Projection
Description
A family with two young kids wanted more usable backyard space, so they're adding about 491 square feet of uncovered deck that reaches four feet above grade and projects five feet into the rear setback. The project actually shrinks the old 1976 deck's code violation from about 7 feet to 5 feet.
Impact summary
The deck brings the property closer to current code and fits with neighboring wraparound deck designs; commissioners probed grade, privacy, and fence placement before signing off.
