Property: 307 Rosedale Street
The photo on the left was taken by an UMNA rep on May 13th. The photo on the right is the most recent front image on Google Maps.
Background
The following is a layperson's description of the situation as determined by a review of information provided online by the City of Rochester and as described by the owner during a site visit on May 13, 2025.
In 2024 the driveway and rear parking area were repaved without a permit from the City. The front yard was unaffected by the repaving. As a result, the property no longer meets minimum standards for greenspace.
The City of Rochester cited the property for lack of a permit and code violations related to the minimum required greenspace.
The property owner has requested a variance to allow the repaved driveway and parking areas to remain in their current configuration.
Possible actions on the variance by the ZBA would approve/disapprove/approve with conditions.
Interested parties are strongly encouraged to read the official ZBA staff report
