Review appeal of denied permit for new house with second unit on Tehama Avenue
In Plain English
The Design Review Board rejected Barry and Su Thysell's plan to build a 2,750 square foot house with a 600 square foot second unit at 5900 Tehama Avenue. The property owners are asking the city council to overturn that denial. If approved, construction can proceed under the original design plans.
