1. True and accurate site plan: Not Addressed. Please submit a true and accurate site

SLK'faces� on, the parcO must be shown on the site rflan.
South side setback: Not acidressed. The existing house is noted to be nonconforming
with respect to the 7.5' south side setback for the RS -8 zone. From what is shown on
the site plan and on the building plans, the rear portion of the first floor addition and
the entire second story addition is proposed to be built in line with the existing
nonconforming south wall. This would be expanding the existing nonconforming
situation and is not allowed per ECDC 17.40.020.B. All new construction must meet
the required 7.5' setback; please confirm and revise as necessary.
