Dear Steve:
This is to request that a variance be granted from the
requirements of the solar ordinance for Westbury P.U.D. We have
made every attempt to design a development that conforms to the
spirit of the ordinance and feel that Westbury does. Since the
attached home lots (1-•20) are considered by the Planning
Department to be "multi -family" and therefore excluded from the
-alculation, Westbury achieves 53.5% solar lots (30/56). Lots
1-20, however, are single family lots and are on a conforming
east west line, and thus do conform to the spirit of the
ordinance. Counting these as such, our percentage is 67%. The
Westbury plan is equal to such plan incorporating the
provision", and for this reason I am requesting this variance.
These 20 "multi -family" lots as you call them, per site plan note
Number 7 may very well be built as duplexes in which case they
would qualify under the ordinance and this variance request would
not be needed.
This particular phase of Westbury will be the last phase
developed and will be done with a separate final P.U.D. plan and
I just haven't decided at this point in time whether to build
them as duplexes or attached townhomes. I feel this plan does
conform to the spirit of the ordinance and under the "equal to"
variance language this variance is justified.
Very truly
/�F.yours,
