a) Section IV-4 (g)(2) of the Architectural Design Standards state that projections which extend out from the mass to which they are attached more than five feet will be treated as wings, except for open porches, and single story additions off the rear of multi-story dwellings. If the roof line of the addition intersects the roof line of the existing dwelling, then the addition shall be classified as a wing. This guideline should not be construed to mean a masonry pier or continuous wall foundation is required upon the enclosure of an existing deck or porch. Staff notes that the proposed front elevation projection would extend in front of the main body by approximately 7 ft. Revise elevations to meet this requirement.
b) Section III-1(g)(3) of the Architectural Design Standards states exposed foundations and tie courses shall be of a consistent material on all elevations. Revise elevations to depict a more consistently applied exposed foundation on all elevations.
c) Section IV-4(c) of the Architectural Design Standards state that all roofs in all the wings must be of the same shape as the main body, but they may have a different pitch or orientation. Roofs shall not intersect a wall so as to cause a valley. Question the proposed flat roof, as the main mass has a gable roof.
d) Submit spec sheets for all proposed exterior materials.
