FROM: Sophie Varga, Zoning Enforcement Officer
DATE: 12/30/2021
RE: 233 W Bleeker Referral Comments
Please refer to the Residential Zoning Checklist and Model Zoning Submission for
the information that needs to be provided on every sheet. An example would be
the elevations – elevations need to show existing and proposed grade and the
maximum allowed height offset from the most restrictive grade.
1. Please provide a zoning summary sheet.
2. Please provide sections.
3. Floor Area:
a. We encourage the applicant to provide more than 2 SF of unbuilt
floor area.
b. Please show existing and proposed grade on the subgrade wall
calculations.
c. Please reach out to work through deck area calculations.
d. Provide sections for the attic.
e. Please provide proposed floor area summaries unit by unit.
4. Setbacks:
a. Show the separation between the dwelling units as a setback on all
applicable sheets.
b. Please update L.1.00 and A-0.0 to accurately reflect the setbacks.
c. Dimension all projections into the setback.
d. Please provide details to show that the pool and deck to the east
of the pool comply with the setback regulations.
e. A variance needs to be requested for the stairs from the screen
porch.
f. Provide details for planters and built-in grill.
5. Height:
a. Without a height over topography sheet, proposed height
measurements cannot be reviewed.
b. The chimney on the addition is on a roof with a pitch of 12:12 and
goes above the ridgeline of the structure. Please lower the height
of the chimney or show that the height of the chimney is necessary
to meet building code. Please note that currently the chimneys on
the historic resource meet this code; the top of the reconstructed
chimneys is below the ridgeline of the addition. If the ridgeline of
the addition is lowered, the height of the chimneys will need to be
examined.
6. Demolition: Provide demolition calculations. It appears that demolition is
going to be triggered. All non-conformities that are proposed to be
maintained need to be reviewed.
7. Site Coverage: provide an existing and proposed site coverage diagram.
The coverage should be measured as the gross area of the building
where it meets the ground; there are no exemptions for staircases and the
like.
8. Where will mechanical equipment be placed?
9. Parking: please dimension the required third parking space.
