SUMMARY EXPLANATION AND BACKGROUND:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION / BACKGROUND:
Reinaldo Morales, owner, has submitted five residential zoning variance requests to legalize existing construction at the property located at 8861 NW 7 Street in the Westview neighborhood, zoned residential single-family (R-1C).
On March 7, 2024, the Code Compliance Division cited the property (Code Case No. 230301010) for work performed without building permits.
