The Glendale Design Review Board met on November 12, 2026, to consider design review case PDR 006388-2026, a proposed three-story, 1,571-square-foot single-family home with an attached 438-square-foot garage on a vacant, steep hillside lot in the College Hills neighborhood. The project had previously received variances for the substandard lot, front setback, driveway length, and interior setbacks; a request for additional floor area had been denied. Staff recommended approval, noting the design’s response to the slope, massing, materials, and landscaping, including coordination with Urban Forestry recommendations during plan check. A neighboring resident spoke in support, and no other public comments were received.

The board approved the project unanimously, subject to staff’s recommended conditions and an additional condition that the wood siding panel beside the window be recessed relative to the adjacent stucco. Members also suggested, as a nonbinding design consideration, extending split-face block to strengthen the building’s base. No procurement, contract, or budget actions were identified.
