11/08/2013: LUC 4.5(E)(3) This section requires a minimum proportioning /subdividing features.
RESPONSE: This LUC code provision refers to Maximum Residential Building Height unless I'm
looking at an older version of the LUC.
The growth room portion of the building, that faces the street needs further proportioning.
RESPONSE: In addition to the brick veneer panels, we have added recessed horizontal reveals at
the upper windows as well as lower on the wall. The upper cornice has been defined with
additional reveals to provide a more dominate element. A 3 color scheme is to be included on the
tex-coated pre -cast concrete walls that will further break of the scale of the facade and provide a
finished look of stucco.
