0 Willamette Avenue residence and detached garage
Contra Costa County
Description
A two-story, 3,293-square-foot home and detached garage on a steep Kensington lot with variances for reduced setbacks and a tree permit. The commission rejected the appeal and approved the design review plan, keeping a geotech condition in place.
Impact summary
The Gridley family can build after four years of process, though the uphill neighbor loses some view and window access and slope safety questions will be re-examined at the permit stage.
