Condominium Complex Proposed for Small Lot Rejected on Appeal
- Share via
The City Council decided on a 4-0 vote Monday night not to grant an appeal to a developer trying to build a 26-unit condominium project on a half-acre lot.
Steven Weinberg wanted to build a senior-citizen housing complex in the 5300 block of Marine Avenue. But the project was loudly opposed by neighbors, particularly members of the Marine Village Townhouse Assn., who noted that the housing project was nearly three times the density normally allowed.
The Hawthorne Planning Commission rejected Weinberg’s housing project on Sept. 17, but the developer appealed to the City Council.
Weinberg can now reconfigure the condominium project and present it to the city Planning Commission or sue the city, officials said.
