Zoning Comments:
Please see the attached red-marked plan sheets. Following is a summary of the red-mark comments:
1) Plan Sheet A-2.1
a. Please add topographic contours.
b. Per the PUD: Decks, balconies, stairways and similar features: Structures that exceed
thirty inches above Accepted or Finished Grade, and that are not covered by a roof or
architectural projection form a building, are exempt from Floor Area for up to fifteen
percent of the maximum Floor Area allowed. Any areas in excess of fifteen percent of
allowed area shall be counted toward Floor Area.
Please verify that the changes proposed are consistent with the above language and do
not change the deck exemption calculations.
c. The concrete patio feature on the west side of the pool must be contained within the
Building Envelope. Please revise this sheet, and Sheet A7.29 accordingly.
d. The trellis over the outdoor shower is counted as deck area. Please verify that the deck
calculations did not change or revise the calculations accordingly.
e. Fence height is measured from finished grade, inclusive of the retaining walls that the
fences are sitting on top of. For fences located behind the street facing façade of the
residence, the total allowed height is six feet from finished grade. For fences located
between the right-of-way and the street facing façade of the residence, the total
allowed height is 42 inches measured from finished grade. In both cases, please
measure the total height from both inside the mechanical pits and outside; the
maximum height applies to both sides.
f. In addition to the clouded areas, please provide notation as to what plan sheets and
detail renderings apply to each clouded area.
2) Plan Sheet A-7.29
a. The concrete patio feature on the west side of the pool must be contained within the
Building Envelope. Please revise this sheet, and Sheet A-2.1 accordingly.
3) Plan Sheet A-7.31
a. The height of detail number three (Section at west pool edge and planter) is greater
than 30”, and therefore counts towards the deck calculations. Please either decrease
height to 30” or provide updated deck calculations.
4) Plan Sheet A-7.32
a. Please clarify on Sheet A-2.1 where exactly the detailed renderings are proposed. The
height of details two and three appear to be over 30” and will change the deck
calculations. Please either decrease the height to 30” or provide updated deck
calculations.
5) The new proposed trellis over the outdoor shower is included as deck. Please update the deck
calculations accordingly.
