He's built the addition into where those cars are parked. [/quote]

Part of it, yes. But it looks like there would still be ebough space if he extends the parking pad to the sidewalk.

He probably wouldn't ever use it, but I think it would try technically satisify the parking requirement.[/quote]

Cars are not supposed to park on the sidewalk. With the addition using driveway space, is there room there for a car to park without being over the sidewalk? Also, with the addition of so many extra bedrooms, will there be adults who own cars living in those rooms? Will they all be parking on the street?

And if there isn’t room room to park easily in the driveway, doesn’t that show more of a possible adverse effect on the neighborhood if two or more cars will be regularly parked on the street? One could argue that the extra cars regularly parked on the street would narrow the space for cars to pass on the street, making it more difficult to navigate the area safely. There would definitely be effects on safety and quality of life for residents.

Street parking is already allowed and done in that neighborhood. That's not an adverse impact. It has a side effect of slowing cars down on the road.[/quote]

That’s irrelevant since Fairfax County requires off street parking.[/quote]

Yes, and if he creates two spots then there isn't anything to complain about there.[/quote]
