APPROVED, ZONING ADMINISTRATOR DECISION DENIED Case A-10-21, Mill Street Boutique Hotel, TMS# 517-16-00-058, 057, 034, and 035. Appeal of the Zoning Administrator’s determination in the following matters: §156.171 “Accommodations and Lodging,” requires that the application provide “1-2” parking spaces per “Guest Room.” The nineteen units in Building A contain 32 or more guest rooms; the 8 townhouse units contain 32 or more guest rooms, for a total of 64 Guest Rooms. The project plans provide for 34 parking spaces, violating the Ordinance. Applicant contends that the project is not a permissible use under the current zoning of these parcels (§156.325); That the project violates both paragraphs of §156.101 (A) and (C); That the project violates the recent BOZA decision not to permit residential uses above three stories. The plan continues to set forth residential balconies on the top floor and other unexplained structures. The shed-like areas on roof facing the pool at 6 and 9 o’clock (p 35 and 57) appear to be future roof top food and beverage structures. Finally, applicant contends  the project violates §156.108 Curb Cuts, Visibility at Intersection, and Pedestrian Access (A)(1)(3)(4) and (B).
