08-11-26 Board of Zoning Adjustment Meeting

The City of Boulder Board of Zoning Adjustment held a meeting on August 11, 2026, primarily to consider a setback variance request for a renovation and addition to a non-standard 1912 duplex located at 2529 9th Street. The variance sought to reduce the required front yard setback from 25 feet to approximately 14.6 feet to accommodate necessary bathroom and laundry facility improvements within the existing structure's constraints. Staff recommended approval, noting the property's unique circumstances and compliance with recent zoning density changes. The board discussed the modest nature of the request and its necessity for continued habitation, ultimately voting unanimously to approve the variance. Additionally, the board approved minutes from previous meetings and discussed upcoming agenda items for the September meeting. No procurement, contracting, or budget matters were addressed during this session.
