Hi Wayne,
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division. Before I can
sign off on the permit, however, the following information needs to be clarified in a written
response and on updated plans with changes called out. The corrections apply to each of the
building permits.
1. Original grade: On Sheet A03, show the lines of original topography prior to
redevelopment.
2. Smallest rectangle: On Sheet A03, revise the height calculations to use the smallest
rectangle that encloses each building, including any building overhangs and projections.
Use the updated corner locations to recalculate the average original grade for each
building.
3. Elevation lines: On Sheets A10 and A11, use the revised calculations from #2 above and
show the lines of 'average original grade', 'maximum allowed height', and 'proposed' or
'actual' height on the elevation drawings.
4. 4:12 roof: On Sheet A07, show that the roof pitches are at least 4:12 pitch for those
portions of roof above 25' in accordance with ECDC 16.30.030.A sub 1.
5. Site data: Please copy the "Site Data" from Sheet A01 and add it to Sheet A03.
6. Lot coverage: On Sheet A03, provide the lot coverage for each structure and the total
coverage for all four structures as a percentage of the total lot area. Per ECDC
21.15.110, "[c]overage means the total ground coverage of all buildings or structures on
a site measured from the outside of external walls or supporting members or from a
point two and one-half feet in from the outside edge of a cantilevered roof, whichever
covers the greatest area."
