an interpretation question.

other property or improvements in the vicinity?
NO. This orolect conforms to all gertinent codes and ordinances including
height limitations.

Will these hardships have been caused by your own action?
Our intent is to utilize the sloped roof forms to create a hidden well where
mechanical units can be placed. Located here as opposed to on a flat roof,
noise will be greatly reduced. It would be a hardship to have unsightly and
noisey mechanical units exposed to view.
5. Can you make reasonable use of your property without the variance?
YFS. However. the -marketability of this ProJect as quality condominiums ---
will be adve rsely affected. The owner, developer, sales agent and architect
feel the sloped roof forms are extremely important to promote a residentl!IL

ATTACHMENT "Bit
VARIANCE REQUESTED:
Request is for an interpretation of an exception to height limitations as
allowed under Section 1 6.30.030, titled Site Development Standards. This
section allows for a maximum height on an RM-1-5 zoned site to be 25 feet
with an exception for roofs which have a slope Of four inches in twelve inches
or greater. This exception reads:
"Roof only may extend five feet above the stated height
limit if all Portions of the roof above the stated
height limit have a slope of four inches in twelve inches
or greater."
We feel our project conforms to this exception per the definition of roof as
established by the zoning ordinance and the Uniform Building Code. This inter-
pretation request pertains to the building facing Forsyth Lane only as the
topography excepts the other structure where the total roof is below established
height limits. Please see the attached sheets illustrating proposed building
section and site plan.
