The Department of Planning and Development (DPD) has announced two new applications for Beacon Hill projects.
El Centro de la Raza (2524 16th Ave. S.) has filed an application to allow the expansion of the existing child care center, consisting of two portable classroom buildings. The El Centro site is currently zoned as SF5000 (single-family residential) and so this institutional expansion requires an administrative conditional use permit.
According to the application, the child care center will have eight employees and will provide care for 68 children. Existing parking will be redistributed on the current site.
Comments on this application may be submitted through April 4. You can comment by filling out this web form.
At 1534 Sturgus Ave. S., an application has been filed to subdivide one site into four unit lots for the construction of residential units. Permits have already been granted to tear down a 1906 3-bed/1 bath home on the site (sold in December for $200,000) and construct two 2-unit townhouses, with one garage and three surface parking spots. The subdivision is for the purpose of allowing sale or lease of the individual unit lots.
