BURBANK - The City Council will consider an appeal Tuesday of the Planning Board's preliminary approval for a three-story, 15-unit multifamily project on Omer Lane.

City Councilman David Gordon David Gordon may refer to:
  • David Gordon, an economist and editor of the Mises Review at the Ludwig von Mises Institute
  • David Gordon, a psychologist who was an early contributor to the development of Neuro-linguistic programming.
 called for the issue to be brought forward after residents raised concerns about increased traffic and other quality-of-life issues.

Gordon asked the council to consider whether the project is compatible with the neighborhood.

"The architect has proposed a project that incorporates current architectural style, with pitched roofing pitched roof

 and stucco stucco (stŭk`ō), in architecture, a term loosely applied to various kinds of plasterwork, both exterior and interior. It now commonly refers to a plaster or cement used for the external coating of buildings, most frequently employed in  siding, similar to adjacent buildings," she wrote.

Plans for the project, located at 1014 and 1018 Omer Lane, include a semi-subterranean garage with 33 parking spaces and a landscaped courtyard.

To make way for the project, the city plans to demolish a dilapidated duplex built in 1944.

Community Development Director Susan Georgino approved the application for the project Sept. 22. On Oct. 5, the Planning Board Noun 1. planning board - a board appointed to advise the chief administrator

 denied an appeal by a resident who was concerned about traffic. In February, two more residents raised concerns over the project, and Gordon raised his objection in March.

As a result of the appeals, the city's traffic engineering division conducted traffic counts on the street and found that no additional traffic measures would be required.
