The board discussed a variance appeal for a basement renovation at 1122 Mixedwood in Ann Arbor. The primary issue concerned the ceiling height under an existing support beam, which was measured at 6'2.5 inches, failing to meet the minimum code requirement of 6'4 inches for habitable space. The contractor explained that the space is currently used for daily circulation and proposed keeping the beam area as an open ceiling painted black. The board deliberated on allowing a variance for this small deviation, emphasizing the requirement for hardwired, interconnected smoke and carbon monoxide detection systems to ensure life safety.
