Steve,
Response to Staff Review Comment #611- Maximum building height:
After reviewing our elevations Jon has determined that we would only need to
reduce the height of our buildings (center of building) by V to meet the building
height codelrequirement (see attached). Jon would like to know if the City is
going to require us to change our building elevation for a 1'revision?
Thank you for your help.
