Liu Deck Expansion; File No. CPH24-0019/VAR26-0001 (PLP26-0008)

The project involves the replacement and expansion of outdoor structures at a single-family residence in Sonoma County, California, specifically including the removal and replacement of a 429 square foot deck, the addition of a 468 square foot deck expansion, the removal and replacement of access stairs and landings, the alteration of retaining walls, and the complete removal of a shed to facilitate the deck expansion. To proceed, a Coastal Permit with a public hearing is required to legalize these modifications, ensuring compliance with coastal zone regulations. Additionally, a variance is sought to permit the new deck construction within the legally mandated rear property line setbacks, which would otherwise be prohibited under standard zoning requirements. The application is filed under CPH24-0019 and VAR26-0001, with the project listed as a forecast entry posted on June 12, 2026, and is associated with the 94923 ZIP code. Primary point of contact for the county is Mark Shurvinton, Planner II, reachable via email and phone, while the project applicant, Rick Kadello, is also listed as a secondary contact.

No solicitation or contracting mechanism is active, as this is a permit and variance application rather than a procurement action.
