Cleveland Heights Board of Zoning Appeals May 20, 2026

The City of Cleveland Heights Board of Zoning Appeals held a meeting on May 20, 2026, to consider multiple variance requests related to residential and mixed-use properties. Key procurement-related discussions involved granting variances for signage size at a mixed-use building (Marquee at 13230 Cedar Road) and numerous variances for new single-family home constructions and additions across various addresses. These variances primarily addressed side yard setbacks, front and rear yard coverage, driveway widths, and parking requirements due to nonconforming lot sizes and unique property constraints. The board unanimously approved all variance requests with conditions including architectural board approval, building permits, and construction completion timelines. The meeting also included discussions on drainage plans and neighborhood character impacts, with public testimony and objections considered. No direct contract awards or procurement contracts were discussed, but the approvals facilitate future construction and development projects in the city.
