Council approved height and layout changes for a 20-unit townhouse project at Eltham and Helmcken Roads.
"The height variance was due to a site grading calculation error during rezoning. Discussion focused on the maneuverability of fire trucks in the narrow drive aisle and potential traffic congestion at the Eltham/Helmcken intersection."
