Rohr Family ADU Setback Variance

Co-applicant Ellen Rohr explained that she and her husband want to age in place and bring their son's family into an ADU built inside an existing garage, noting that tearing it down would be wasteful and potentially damage nearby infrastructure.

Son Max Rohr spoke about his construction experience, warning that demolishing the building could trigger mudslide risks on the sloping property and impact downhill neighbors.

Property owner Bob Rohr noted that surrounding communities allow 10-foot setbacks for accessory structures and emphasized that the building is only two years old.
