Lynwood Avenue Garage Replacement (COA 2600998)

At a glance

• What: Application to demolish a 1920s garage damaged by fire and build a new two-car garage designed to match it, on Lynwood Avenue (street name approximate from auto-captions).
• Where it stands: Approved as submitted on 10/15/2026, unanimously.

Proposal and staff position

• The property received an unsafe building order in 2023 after a fire; other repairs were approved in 2025 and the garage demolition had to be reviewed separately.
• Garage appears to date from the 1920s (Sanborn maps), so demolition standards apply.
• After the October business meeting the applicant updated drawings with 1x6 trim and wider siding (bumped to six inches); no windows were added. Staff recommended approval.

Decisions

• Approved as submitted; voice vote, noted as unanimous.
