The 10 most interesting neighborhood scoops from January 14, 2026
Ranked from 28 total scoops using AI
Applicant Daniel Shook has submitted a site design waiver to allow an accessory structure to exceed the footprint of the primary structure at 6504 Glenbrook Ave. Owner Charles C. Shook is listed on the file, the request cites LDC 5.4.2.C.1, and a $300 fee has been paid — in plain English, they're asking permission to build a detached structure that would be larger than the house.
Applicant Donna J. Pipkin (owner Donya Jabbar Pipkin) has applied for a variance to allow factory-built housing at 2203 Lower Hunters Trce. The request asks for a variance from LDC Section 4.8.3 to encroach into the protected waterway buffer on about 0.2056 acres in the R4 zoning district. In plain terms, she’s seeking permission to build closer to the waterway than current rules allow, which will go through agency review and could draw neighborhood interest.
Applicant Damian Pataluna is seeking a variance to allow a 10-foot setback in an R1 zoning district at 6589 Sylvania No 6 Rd, a parcel of about 0.51 acres. The property is owned by Damkev Properties Limited Liability, and the request asks to bend LDC 5.1.12.B.2.i.1 so a single-family structure can sit closer to the lot line than the standard rules allow.
