Impact analysis
Private residential driveway project using pervious pavers; no cost to the city.
The Kensington Oval family — with four future teen drivers — avoids backing out onto a fast, dangerous street.
Nearby residents could see more curb-cut pavement if it functions as expanded parking, which members feared would set a precedent.
