A new single-family home is planned for 1812 Ocean Dr, a property located in the RM-2 zoning district. The applicant is seeking variances for front and rear yard setbacks, as well as lot coverage. The property is a substandard lot, measuring 2,800 square feet, which is smaller than the required 3,500 square feet for single-family use. The proposed variances would allow for a 18-foot front yard setback instead of 20 feet, a 12-foot rear yard setback instead of 20 feet, and a maximum lot coverage of 48% for the primary structure and driveway instead of 45%. This project is currently under review by the Board of Adjustment, with a meeting scheduled for May 5, 2026. If approved, the project would involve the demolition of the existing structure and the construction of a new single-family dwelling, including site preparation, foundation work, framing, utilities, and finishing trades. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to reach out early to learn more about this opportunity before final plans and permits are issued.
