Friendly suggestion/question on small peaked porch roofs
On Bldg 3 south elevation and Bldg 4 north elevation, these peak features look
a little unusual, not being over the entrances, and not having any visible
horizontal beam or vertical column supports, as is typical for this kind of feature.
Unless I'm missing something, they would be stronger positive features if they
were handled this way. Also, could they in fact project forward a little bit from
the shed roof, with columns supporting a visible beam and an interesting little
peaked structure? (See Enclosed scratches on elevation drawing)
We acknowledge the consideration of meter banks and the siding with paint (vs
vinyl). One other little question though - could there be some variation in color
shades, and not monotonous repetition of the beige?
Thanks.

Provide parking lot perimeter landscaping
The parking lot at the rear of the lot, south side, needs to meet 3.2.1(E)(4)(b).
This is a basic, long-standing requirement. Also in this same location, the
sidewalk is squeezed beyond what is useable and reasonable. Please omit the
southernmost stall and use the 9 feet to provide perimeter landscaping and a
more comfortable sidewalk. Please look at this in detail, at 20 scale minimum,
and maybe larger. I don't know the exact parking count, but if this were to
eliminate a unit, that could be beneficial in other ways because of the tight
packing on this rather unusual development parcel.
