  11. 1. Continuation of a case recommending approval of to add a 750 square-foot, two-story addition to the rear of an existing two-story single-family home and a 56 square-foot expansion of the basement level. The scope-of-work includes a 215 square-foot single-car garage with an attached carport to the existing 2-car garage; and a 103 square-foot accessory addition. A 965 square-foot second floor Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) over the garage is also a part of this project, however due to State legislation, the ADU is deemed approved, as it has been over 61-days since application. Hence, it is not under CHC's purview for review and consideration. The property is located at 2749 East Ocean Boulevard in the Two-Family Residential District with Large Lots (R-2-L) Zoning District. It is a contributor to the Bluff Park Historic District. (District 2)
