Zoning conflict ends City Council approves controversial variance
In Gallup a private home construction project faced a 3 3 Planning and Zoning Commission split. The City Council approved a 5 foot variance for Melvin West at 1414 N Grandview Dr to continue a two car garage built without a permit by Roy Yoder Construction. West, a state police captain, insisted the contractor was at fault as the work began before permits were pulled. The council noted the contractor knew a permit was required and approved the variance 4 0, citing the homeowner was not responsible for the halted project. The decision sparked debate among councilors over enforcement and future variances in the Grandview area.
