Accessory Structure (Barn)
Submitted by Brian McCort
a) Staff notes the scope of work is to construct a 2,400 square foot
agricultural pole barn.
b) The Land Development Code limits accessory structures to 1,200 square
feet in Zoning District 2; however, if the applicant is intending to use the
structure for agricultural purposes the structure has a maximum footprint
allowance of 10,000 square feet. Staff notes the applicant submitted a floor
plan verifying an agricultural use; therefore, the 2,400 square foot
proposal would be allowed.
c) The Architectural Design Standards state all facades (including the rear)
over twelve (12) feet long shall have at least one window or door opening.
Question if the applicant could incorporate windows on the north and
south elevations.
d) The Architectural Design Standards state enclosed accessory buildings
shall incorporate some elements similar to the main body, for example
similar corner boards, window types, or materials. Question materials
used and how those materials match the existing house.

Addition (612sqft Bed & Bath)
Submitted by Jim Dombroski
a) Staff notes the addition is proposed to be on the same wall plane as the
existing house, creating a 60-foot continuous wall span. Suggest the addition
be inset or bumped out to break up the wall plane to meet the requirement for
siding to be blended where new construction meets existing.

Addition (825 sqft In-law suite with rear screen porch)
Submitted by Chris Zanin, Contractor
a) The Architectural Design Standards state large expanses of blank wall are
to be avoided. Fenestration placement should be at a maximum of
approximately every 12 feet. Question if the rear elevation is accurately
depicted as the floor plan shows a bedroom window and the elevation does
not.
b) The Architectural Design Standards state doors and windows on the public
faces of a building should be arranged so that they are regulated by a
system of (invisible) parallel and perpendicular lines. Question if the
kitchen window on the right elevation could be centered to meet this
regulation.
c) The Architectural Design Standards state exposed foundations and tie
courses shall be of a consistent material on all elevations. Question the
exposed foundation and how it relates to the proposed addition.
