Dear Kirsten:
This is to request that the Planning and Zoning Board consider a variance
to the Solar Orientation Ordinance for Northbrook Patio Homes P.U.D.
Fifteen of the proposed 42 units are solar oriented which is 36% of the
units. Due to the site being small (6.12 acres) and not having much flexibility
of design because of the limited access points, a variance is necessary. The
units that Mr. Mackey is proposing to build are very energy efficient.
The variance will not be detrimental to the public good. The P.U.D. is
an "infill" project and, therefore, will have other positive benefits for the
public.
The plan is equal to or better than a plan that would not need the solar
variance because another plan would lower the density a significant amount,
and we are trying to increase the density of the Fairbrooke Overall Development.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call.
Sincerely,
Richard A. Rutherford, E. & L. S.
