Applicant requests a conditional use permit to permit the property at 2259 Shadywood Road to be used as 2 residential units (duplex) in light of the unique history of use of the property. Applicant wishes to sell this property as she can no longer maintain it. Zoning Administrator Mabusth reviewed the floor plan which indicate that their are two separate living units with separate entries. She noted that the two building permits dated in 1976 and 1980 which were issued to remodel the house for a mother-in-law apartment both specifically note that it is not to be used as a duplex or for rental income.
