office use,and adding a second dwelling unit on the 3rd floor by renovating the interior of the 3rd floor and adding a rear exterior stairway
as an additional means of access/egress serving the 3rd floor. Other than the stairway,there will be no expansion of the building
footprint. There will be legally conforming parking for at least 5 cars on-site(2 for first-floor office and 3 for the 2 dwelling units @ 1.5
