Driveway widening and second parking space at 935 Lockwood Drive
Peekskill
Summary
A homeowner wanted to widen his driveway to fit a second off-street parking space in the front yard, which needs a variance because it sits between the front of the house and the street. A neighbor pushed back hard, saying the household already parks seven vehicles and it's changing the neighborhood's character.
