Geotechnical report (Geotechnical professional (signed, sealed, insured; PE not required in the City); reviewed by City Planning at site plan review and by PLI at permit)
4% of the lot is steeper than 25% (1 m lidar) outside the hazard overlays: not a code trigger by itself, but an engineer will likely want soil data.
also: 4% of the lot is steeper than 25% (1 m lidar). Will your grading create cut or fill slopes over 25%? If so, a geotechnical report is required (§915.02.A.1.c).

Can you build here?

Yes, a 3-4 unit building is allowed by right, but the parking per unit needs a variance (about 5 months to a permit).

Does it pencil?

It depends on the loan: it costs about $2,170,000 to build and would bring in about $25,200 a year after running costs (net income), a 1% yearly return on cost.

Rent $6,600 × 12 = $79,200 a year; minus $54,000 in costs = $25,200 left to pay the loan.

What's in the way?

A variance is needed for the parking per unit.

What next?

Apply to the Zoning Board for a variance on the parking per unit.
Get the geotechnical report from Geotechnical professional (signed, sealed, insured; PE not required in the City); reviewed by City Planning at site plan review and by PLI at permit.
Get the structural engineer from Structural engineer.

Time to a permit

About 5.2 months Estimate

Building-permit part: the City's review target for one round (City target, not measured). Each revision request adds time.

44 building permits waiting for City review (as of 2026-09-21).

building permit: City target 21 calendar days per review round (City target, not measured)
dimensional variance: ~1.2 mo (heuristic)
decision to permit after a hearing: ~2.3 mo (ZBA record median)
geotechnical report: ~1 mo (heuristic)
