The proposed project is a three-story residential development consisting of 40 residential dwellings
throughout 14 separate buildings, inclusive of eight units designated for affordable housing (low and
moderate income levels). The project includes a common interest subdivision to provide each of the
residential units a for-sale condominium (SLO 0081-19-) to be reviewed by the Planning Commission.
The project site is within an area dedicated for medium-high density residential development within
the Orcutt Area Specific Plan (OASP), and is a part of Tract 3044 (South Morros). The project includes
the following exceptions from specific development standards: fence height exception for a 11-foot
high portion of a fence and retaining wall within the street yard where normally limited to three feet;
exception to the Edge Conditions Regulations to allow a setback of 16 feet where normally a 23 -foot
setback is required, and to allow balconies above the first floor on the building side facing an adjacent
R-2 zone; as well as minor exceptions to the open space requirements for common interest
subdivisions (which will be reviewed and considered by the Planning Commission). The project also
includes an affordable housing alternative incentive request (§ 17.140.070) for a relief of site
development standards to allow a maximum height of 37 feet, where normally limited to 35 feet . The
proposed project includes site improvements such as parking and site access upgrades, and associated
landscaping (Attachment 1, Project Plans).

Table 1 – Discussion Items
Highlighted Sections Discussion Items
OASP Chapter 4 – Design Guidelines
§ 4.1.1a: Architectural Styles
The OASP states that the architectural styles of Craftsman, California
Bungalow, and California Mission architectural themes are strongly
encouraged in the Orcutt Area. The architectural characteristics of
these styles highlight the historic aspects of the area while allowing
flexible design, which can be adapted to the rural nature of the site. The
ARC should discuss the proposed contemporary architectural style in
the context of adjacent projects in the neighborhood and the goals of
the OASP Design Guidelines.
§ 4.1.1e: DG 4.4 Façade Elements
The OASP states that creation of multiple elements in the façade of two-
and three-story structures to reduce the visual mass is strongly
encouraged. The architectural design should break the structure into
three to four distinct elements such as entry, main structure, single
story element and the roof. The ARC should discuss the project’s design
and whether façade elements presented provide sufficient distinction
among elements.
CDG Chapter 5 – Residential Project Design Guidelines
§ 5.4.A Site Planning
The CDG states that site planning for multi-family housing projects
should create a pleasant, comfortable and distinct place for residents,
without the project “turning its back on the surrounding
neighborhood.” Higher density projects should be designed either with
ground floor units having individual sidewalk entrances, or as courtyard
projects with at least one significant pedestrian entrance from the
street sidewalk. The ARC should discuss whether additional access
should be provided to Ranch House Road from the project site, and if
additional access is to be provided, which locations would be the
priority.
§ 5.4.C.1 Façade and Roof
Articulation
The CDG states that a structure with three or more attached units
should incorporate significant wall and roof articulation to reduce
apparent scale. The ARC should discuss the proposed side elevations of
each structure to determine whether sufficient articulation is provided
that reduces the apparent scale of the project as seen from the public
right of way and from adjacent properties. Specifically attention should
be given to the façade materials along the ground level.
§ 5.4.C.2 Scale
The CDG states that structures with greater height may require
additional setbacks at the ground floor level and/or upper levels
(stepped-down) along the street frontage so they do not shade adjacent
properties or visually dominate the neighborhood. While the project
height is comparable to the maximum heights allowed in the vicinity,
the project’s position on the site topography contributes to the overall
bulk of the project in the context of the neighborhood. The ARC should
discuss the project’s scale and mass while considering the site’s
topography, and discuss whether upper level step backs are necessary
to reduce the perceived scale of the project within the neighborhood.

Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.050 – Edge Conditions
§ 17.70.050.D.3 Upper Level
Open Space Orientation and
Setbacks
The Edge Conditions Section of the Zoning Regulations prohibits
balconies and terraces above the first floor on the building side facing
the lower density residential zoning, however, due to the topography
of the lots the proposed second floor balconies are provided at height
equivalent to the ground level of the properties within the R-2 zone (see
Attachment 1, Project Plans -Sheet E2.0). The ARC should discuss
whether the proposed balconies along the North property line present
any conflicts with the CDG regarding the privacy of adjacent residential
uses with consideration of existing topography. The ARC should provide
a recommendation to the Planning Commission on whether the
balconies should be eliminated or not.

3700 RANCH HOUSE ROAD SAN LUIS OBISPO, CAARCHITECTURAL DEVELOPMENT REVIEWRevised 01.28.2012.09.19PROJECT DESCRIPTIONP1.0Supplement to the ARCHITECTURAL DEVELOPMENT REVIEW APPLICATION for the Vinifera Residential Multi-family Project ORCUTT AREA SPECIFIC PLAN I. PROJECT HISTORY - OVERALL Nestled at the base of the Santa Lucia foothills, the Orcutt Area provides a variety of scenic resources for residents of the area and travelers along Orcutt Road and Tank Farm Road, including views of Righetti Hill, Islay Hill and the Santa Lucia foothills. Located along the southwestern edge of the city limits of San Luis Obispo and bounded by Orcutt Road, railroad and Tank Farm Road, the area encompasses 230 acres of land at the base of Righetti Hill. The Orcutt Area Specific Plan calls for a residential neighborhood with up to 979 homes and a variety of housing types, parks and recreational opportunities including bicycle and pedestrian paths, and natural habitat and visual resource protection in open space areas. The City envisions the area to include hillside and creek open space areas with bike and pedestrian paths, and a public park with a potential school site surrounded by residential neighborhoods. A modest community commercial retail and office zoned area is also identified. On March 2, 2010, the City Council approved the Final Draft of the Orcutt Area Specific Plan (OASP). The City Council certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the project and approved the area for annexation into the City. The annexation of the Orcutt Area to the city was finalized on November 16, 2011, as a result of the November 15th special election. The Orcutt Area is now a part of the City of San Luis Obispo. The OASP and FEIR were the subject of 17 public hearings by the Commission and other City advisory bodies from 2008 to 2010. With the approval of the OASP, the Taylor Ranch/S. Morros properties were zoned as R-2-SP and R-3-SP (Medium Density & Medium-High Density Residential). The R-3-SP zoned parcel - “Vinifera” is the subject of this application. II. PROJECT HISTORY - formerly TAYLOR RANCH, currently SOUTH MORROS (R-2-SP) & VINIFERA (R-3-SP)] A. Mapping The following represents how the original ten (10) acre parcel has been subsequently subdivided over time. City Council Resolution 10462 (2013 Series) – Tract 3044 – a subdivision of the 10acres into 80 lots; Community Development Director approval of SBDV-1142-2017 – Tract Map 3044 was modified to 36 lots while Parcel Map SLO 17-0115 further subdivided Lot 36 into 7 parcels Parcel 7 is the subject property for this application. Tract 3044 Final map (FMAP-0978-2017) is in process; Vesting Tentative Parcel Map 2019-0081, submitted as part of this application is for condominium purposes for Parcel 7 of SLO 17-0115. B. Entitlements Entitlements for the S. Morros R-2-SP portion of the Taylor Ranch project area have been obtained and the single-family residential project is currently under construction. The Vinifera (R-3-SP) portion of the Taylor Ranch project area is the subject of this entitlement application. Pursuant to the 2017 Zoning Regulations the proposed 40-unit residential project is an allowed use and a “major development” which requires Architectural Review Commission review with recommendations forwarded to the Planning Commission for final entitlement review. The proposed vesting tentative parcel map (SLO 2019-0081) is considered a minor subdivision but is included with the development review and entitlement. III. ARCHITECTURAL DEVELOPMENT REVIEW SUBMITTAL – ORCUTT AREA SPECIFIC PLAN (OASP) CONFORMANCE A. Parcel Map for Condominium Purposes As noted above, parcel no. 7 was created by parcel map SLO 17-0115. This application includes an additional parcel map – SLO 2019-0081 establishing a one-lot map for condominium purposes. Based upon the City’s checklist, the plans include the requisite constraints and hazards map, a site plan and statistics, the tentative parcel map and the preliminary grading and drainage plan. With City approval of the vesting tentative parcel map, the common interest development (or) condominium plan will be processed and finalized through the California Department of Real Estate. The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) – a legal document that lays out the guidelines for the planned community will be reviewed by the City Attorney, finalized and, ultimately, recorded in the County records. The project is designed to comply with the City’s Subdivision regulations (Chapter 16, and specifically §16.17 “Common Interest Subdivisions, Airspace Subdivisions and Condominium Conversions” for common interest subdivisions). The proposed 6,600 square foot park included with the development meets the common open space requirements for the condominium project. (see the “Landscape Architectural Design Concept” section below). B. The Proposed Project – Architecture & Landscape Architecture Narratives To accompany the graphics in this submittal, the following narratives provide an overview of the design from an architectural and landscape architectural perspective. 1. Architectural Design Concept The proposed architectural design presents five (5) building types supported by a combination of three (3) different unit plans for a total of forty (40) condominium units in fourteen (14) structures. The multi-family units range in size from 1,394± to 1,653± square feet. There is an expectation that new development in the Orcutt Area be well designed, internally compatible, and enhancing San Luis Obispo’s unique sense of place with a a compatible mix of residence design. The architectural styles encouraged in the OASP – Craftsman, California Bungalow, and California Mission, do not translate successfully to the three-story multi-family building program. This project is proposing three-story building elevations and massing that has been designed in a contemporary style that reflects the increasing desire of the townhome home buyers for a more urban feel and aesthetic. While this proposal is a deviation from the encouraged structure style in the OASP, the proposed building elevation designs respect the principles of the design elements requested in the OASP design guidelines. In addition, a similar Item 3Packet Page 27
ARCHITECTURAL DEVELOPMENT REVIEWRevised 01.28.20 12.09.193700 RANCH HOUSE ROAD SAN LUIS OBISPO, CAP1.1contemporary architectural style was proposed and approved for the multi-family component of the “West Creek” project. The front façade of each proposed building showcases a complementary mixture of materials and colors that create a unique and identifying face to each individual unit’s front entry. Taken together, these elements present a façade that reflects a variety of scale in massing from single story to second and third story elements, as noted in the OASP. Derived from the Craftsman and California Bungalow styles, the building façades emphasize a contemporary interpretation in the use of siding and brick material, which has historically been used as building materials in the noted architectural styles and as seen throughout the surrounding community. Five different building design types include two (2), three (3), and four (4) units per buildings. Each building is distinct either based upon colors, materials, architectural details and/or differing unit layouts. This variety will provide the home buyer an opportunity to choose a unit that will suit their individual tastes and needs. While the building elevations and floor plans respond to the current style demand, they also maintain an appearance and character that will over time, stand in unison with the varied architectural styles and creative design character reflected in the unique architectural flavor found in around San Luis Obispo. 2. Architectural Floor Plans The following tables represents the unit types, square footage, and bedroom/bath/office counts. The building type, number of units per building, and quantity of each building type is also provided. Detailed design information is also depicted on the floor plans.

Color and Material Boards Attached, separately, are the physical color and material boards for the project. The project balances the use of traditional residential color and material palettes to a more contemporary vernacular with some modern color accents to work in harmony with the architectural design. In the spirit of creating a unique and desirable neighborhood, the various buildings portray varying front elevation massing while still staying true to the overall community design. This creates features that become unique and identifying to each unit’s front door statement, which is also embodied through the use (4) different color schemes as shown on the color and material boards. Each board contains photographs and samples of the materials and colors for the stucco body, painted blocking accents, front doors, and brick masonry elements. 4. Landscape Architectural Design Concept The proposed contemporary landscape, designed to reflect and accentuate the urban aesthetic represented by the three-story townhomes, includes a varying textural and colorful array of flowering and evergreen trees and shrubs. The project showcases the drought-tolerant, Mediterranean-style plant palette along vegetated streetscapes, at a neighborhood park, throughout paseos nestled between townhomes, and as a buffer for the neighboring single-family residences. A mixture of deciduous and evergreen street trees is planned for the perimeter streetscape along Ranch House Road and Sponza Drive. Large tree canopies and plantings provide a protective buffer between pedestrian pathways and vehicular travel. Also, a massing of trees and shrubs along the north-eastern edge of the property provides a privacy screen between Vinifera and the neighboring single-family residences. At the corner of Ranch House Road and Sponza Drive, the 6,600± square foot neighborhood park is designed to include open space accommodations for both active and passive play with a sizeable drought-tolerant turf area, hammock “grove”, built-in BBQ, and ample group seating spaces with versatile shade coverage. An area delineated by enhanced decorative pavement accommodates picnic tables for social gathering. The park’s perimeter is landscaped with an appropriate mix of trees, shrubs, and woody ground covers to create a lush, inviting, semi-private, and safe oasis. It is the hub, a central gathering space for play and relaxation, and the focal point of the proposed Vinifera community. The front entry doors at each townhome unit are connected by fully landscaped paseos. Each pedestrian-oriented paseo provides intimate gathering spaces at tables and firepits, surrounded by shade- and drought-tolerant plant material to ensure privacy and noise-reduction for nearby residences. The courtyards are illuminated by bright flowers and foliage along the decorative, paved pathways. The overall landscape design enacts low impact development (LID) and best management practices (BMPs) through energy conservation, soil regeneration, integrated pest management, mulching and species diversity. Additionally, the design of efficient automatic irrigation systems reflects the latest technology and are designed specifically for particular plant species, soils and exposure. 4. Architectural & Landscape Architectural Image Boards While the OASP Design Guidelines provide the basis for implementing the project’s design, “image boards” were created to allow for a window into the designer’s inspiration and thought process. The architectural images focus on the interpretation of the guidelines via building PROJECT DESCRIPTIONItem 3Packet Page 28
3700 RANCH HOUSE ROAD SAN LUIS OBISPO, CAARCHITECTURAL DEVELOPMENT REVIEWRevised 01.28.2012.09.19P1.2style, related details, and components of the proposed units. Complementing the architectural styles and promoting the Central Coast lifestyle, the landscape architecture image board reflects “outdoor rooms” that extend the interior living space and create useable communal open space, while purposefully being mindful of water conservation efforts. IV. DESIGN EXCEPTION & INCENTIVE OVERVIEW (See Sheets E1.0 – E4.0 for a graphic representation of the requested exceptions) A. Edge Conditions The Zoning Regulations § 17.70.050 addresses development standards for properties adjacent to R-1 and R-2 zoning. In this case, the proposed R-3 Vinifera project is adjacent to the R-2 South Morros single-family residential development, currently under construction. It is noteworthy that the purpose of this regulation was focused on providing protection of existing residential neighborhoods from adjacent new higher intensity development. While silent on its application to new residential communities, it has, nonetheless, been applied to the Vinifera and South Morros communities. See Sheet E2.0. Specifically, buildings 1 through 8 are adjacent to the R-2 zone. Buildings 1 through 5 are setback 28-feet to 34-feet from the property line. Buildings 7 and 8 are setback a minimum of 16-feet from the property line. Based on the edge conditions standard, the maximum building height at this setback distance is 28-feet. When the site-specific topography is incorporated into the height and setback calculation, the building height is 21-feet above the adjacent R-2 finish floor. The setback and height ratio is met and complies with the intent of the regulations to buffer R-2 development from the height and intensity of the proposed R-3 development. B. Fences and Walls Community Design Guidelines Chapter 6.1.B.2. requires that retaining walls that are five (5) feet or higher should be dividing into two or more shorter walls with slopes not exceeding 4:1. Building 1, located in the north west corner of the project, is physically constrained to accommodate the noted requirement. In this situation, the building sits below the sidewalk elevation to accommodate grading and drainage improvements, thereby requiring a retaining wall. See Sheet E3.0. The proposed retaining wall height varies from 3-feet to 7-feet with a third of the wall ranging in heights over 5-feet. The retaining wall is visible only from the building side and not the public sidewalk. A railing is proposed at the top of wall for safety reasons, while planting, including street trees, is proposed at the sidewalk level. Additional plantings are planned at base of the wall and along the building entry pathway. This should provide for a softening effect of the wall construction and minimize the wall’s potential visual impact. C. Building Height Zoning Regulation §17.70.060 describes the methodology to determine the height of a building. In this case, the allowable building height in the R-3 zone equals thirty-five (35) feet. The regulation uses the “vertical distance from the average level of highest and lowest existing grade” methodology to determine the starting point to determine height. Since grading on the former Taylor Ranch site and related tract map improvements was comprehensive and included both the R-2 and R-3 zoned properties, this is considered the existing grade and was used to calculate the proposed buildings heights. See Sheet E4.0. Of the fourteen (14) buildings, building 12 and building 14 are 6-inches and 15.5-inches higher, respectively, than the allowable maximum building height. Though perhaps barely perceptible, the building pads for these structures require a slight increase in elevation to accommodate proper site drainage. This additional minor height is being requested as an affordable housing incentive per Zoning Regulation §17.140.070 (See section D. below) D. Affordable Housing Incentives The proposed project is providing five (5) low income affordable housing units (see section below for the calculations). This is 12.5% of the total number of units, therefore the project qualifies for affordable housing incentives pursuant to Zoning Regulation §17.140. This application requests the project utilize the parking requirements established in §17.140.040.K, as noted below. By utilizing the affordable housing parking requirements the proposed project is able include 4-bedroom units and supply these as low- and moderate-income affordable housing units. UNIT TYPE PARKING SPACES PER UNIT NUMBER OF UNITS PARKING SPACES REQUIRED TOTAL 4-Bedroom 2.5 9 22.5 3- Bedroom 2 31 62.0 Guest Parking 1 per 5 units 40 8.0 TOTAL PARKING SPACES REQUIRED 92 PARKING SPACES PROVIDED 98 As a qualifying affordable housing project, there is no request to utilize the standard density bonus incentive, rather an “Alternative or Additional Incentive” as outlined §17.140.070 is requested. The specific request is for an alternative incentive related to a modification of Title 17 site development standards (§17.140.070.B.1) related to the 35 foot building height maximum. As noted in the above in Building Height, Buildings 12 and 14 exceed the maximum building height by 6 inches and 15.5 inches as the building pad must be elevated for site drainage purposes. The applicant requests the maximum building height standard noted in Table 2-8 of §17.20.020.A to be modified to allow specific maximum building heights: x Building 12 a maximum building height of 35 feet 6 inches; x Building 14 a maximum building height of 36 feet 3 inches. x Maximum building height for all other building to remain at 35 feet. The requested modification allows the development to maintain a consistent structure design for each unit and building type which is a key efficiency measure for design, engineering, and construction of multi-unit developments and affordable housing. The consistent design also meets today’s community and market standards for quality interior space and building design. PROJECT DESCRIPTIONItem 3Packet Page 29

THE ORCUTT AREA SPECIFIC PLAN DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS, ETC. The OASP, dated March 2010, provides the framework to meet the goals and objectives in the City’s General Plan for the expansion of the Orcutt Area. The policies and standards take precedence over the more general policies and where the OASP is silent in a particular aspect, the existing General Plan and Zoning Regulations will apply. The following table represents the applicable standards from the OASP and the Zoning Regulations. ORCUTT AREA SPECIFIC PLAN – Chapter 4 COMMUNITY DESIGN Goals, Policies, & Programs Response 4.1 Design Quality and Character Goal 4.1 New development in the Orcutt Area that is well designed, internally compatible and enhances San Luis Obispo’s unique sense of place. The development enhances the uniqueness of San Luis Obispo’s sense of place through architectural and landscape styles specific to the area. Policy 4.1.1 N/A Program 4.1.1a The architectural styles of Craftsman, California Bungalow, and California Mission architectural themes are strongly encouraged in the Orcutt Area . The proposed Contemporary architectural style provides a modern and forward expression of the typical San Luis Obispo design expression.

3700 RANCH HOUSE ROAD SAN LUIS OBISPO, CAARCHITECTURAL DEVELOPMENT REVIEWRevised 01.28.2012.09.19P1.4ORCUTT AREA SPECIFIC PLAN – Chapter 4 COMMUNITY DESIGN Goals, Policies, & Programs Response DG 4.3 Scale: Projects over eight units should be broken up into multiple structures. Facades over 150 feet in length should be avoided Project includes multiple structures. The largest buildings (Type D and E) consist of five (5) units with an overall length of 88-feet. DG 4.4 Façade Elements: Creation of multiple elements in the façade of two- and three-story structures to reduce the visual mass is strongly encouraged. The architectural design should break the structure into three to four distinct elements such as entry, main structure, single story element and the roof. Vertical gabled bays and roof dormers can also add variety. (See also Figures 4.5-a and 4.5-b for examples of multiple façade elements.) There are fourteen (14) individual buildings of two (2) to five (5) units per building. These smaller buildings reduce the overall massing of the project. The contemporary-style three-story townhomes provide plane and material changes to identify entries, upper floor elements (including covered decks), and an articulated roof line. DG 4.5 Roof Overhangs: A variety of hips and gables should be used, particularly on the front/street façade to further break up the mass of the structure. Roofs extended over windows for shading and associated brackets are encouraged. Secondary hipped or gabled roofs covering the entire mass of a building are preferable to mansard roofs or segments of pitched roof at the edge of the structure. The proposed contemporary design exhibits various wall planes/projections to articulate and break up the building mass, which includes Contemporary-style box-outs that provide window shading. DG 4.6 Surface and Roofing Materials: In developments of more than four units a minimum of two material pallets are encouraged. See DG 3.8 and DG 3.9 for detailed language. The project utilizes four (4) different color schemes for building surfaces as shown on the color and material boards. The buildings’ roofs will not be visible. DG 4.7 Color Palettes: In developments of over six units, it is strongly encouraged to have a minimum of two colors from different color families for each primary body material, such as stucco and/or wood. A minimum of two trim colors shall be selected for each primary color (but not necessarily used on each unit). Within an individual building, color variety should relate to a change in materials (stucco to wood) or body material to trim material. The project utilizes four (4) different color schemes as shown on the color and material boards. Each scheme has a main and accent stucco color with compatible accent colors for other materials, trims, and design elements. The schemes are in a variety of tones and colors but with an overall related color palette. DG 4.8 Solar Panels: A solar energy source such as solar panels or solar roofing is recommended per conservation/open space policies. Accommodation of roof top photovoltaic systems have been included in the project design. DG 4.9 Manufactured Housing Foundations: Foundations shall be enclosed or skirted. N/A Program 4.1.1d -2c N/A Policy 4.1.2 - 3 N/A 4.3 Landscaping Goal 4.3 An attractive and sustainable landscape pattern that unifies and enhances the quality of the development in the Orcutt Area. Policy 4.3.1 The landscape characteristics should complement the architectural styles described previously.

There are no existing trees within the project area. Policy 4.3.4 Native riparian areas are sensitive to invasive plant species competing with the native species. Non-native, invasive species shall not be transferred into the riparian corridor. Turf shall be situated and maintained to avoid spreading into riparian/creek corridor or avoided completely. Due to its distance from a riparian and/or creek corridor, non-native species planted within the project area will not spread into the riparian/creek corridor. Program 4.3.4a To ensure that project landscaping does not introduce invasive non-native plant and tree species to the Specific Plan area, project proponents shall submit a final landscaping plan for review and approval of the City Arborist and Community Development Director. The California Invasive Plant Council (Cal-IPC) maintains several lists of the most important invasive plants to avoid. Project proponents are encouraged to refer to the lists when creating a plant palette for landscaping to ensure that plants on the lists are not used. Landscaping plans shall include the following information, at a minimum: Landscaping plans include plant identification information and location to ensure that invasive, non-native species are not introduced in the OASP area. x The species, diameter at breast height, location, and condition of all existing trees; No existing trees – N/A x Identification of tress that will be retained, removed, or relocated; No existing trees – N/A x Location and size of plant and tree species proposed to be planted; Refer to conceptual landscape site plan. x The location of proposed utilities, driveways, street tree locations, and the size and species of proposed street trees; and Refer to conceptual landscape site plan. x A reclaimed water irrigation plan N/A Program 4.3.4b The following plant species shall not be planted within the Specific Plan area: Arundo donax (Giant reed) Bamboo grass species (except in containers) Cortaderia species (Pampas Grass) The Landscape plans does NOT use any of these prohibited plant species.

Due to the horizontal and vertical relationship of the public sidewalk building finished floor and entrance, tiering of this small section of the wall is infeasible. The wall allows for proper drainage and placement of utilities. Handrails and planting between the wall and public sidewalk will provide fall protection.SECTION B-BSECTION B-BSCALE: 1”=20’SCALE: 1”=20’BBWALL HEIGHTItem 3Packet Page 69

The topography of the existing basin is calculated to match adjacent grade as this feature will be relocated to underground chambers since the project has been reconfigured from the conceptual subdivision design.All Buildings are three-stories with a building height of 35 feet from the proposed building pad. For subdivision drainage functionality the building pads for Buildings 12 and 14 must be slightly elevated from the existing elevation, this means the building height from existing average grade is slightly over 35 feet. A. Residential and Nonresidential Building Height on Flat Lots. For flat lots and lots with an average (cross-parcel) slope of less than sixteen percent, the height of a building or structure shall be measured as the vertical distance from the average level of highest and lowest existing grade of that portion of the site covered by the building to the topmost point of the roof, including parapets but excluding features outlined in subsection C of this section. The average level of the ground is determined by adding the elevation of the lowest point of the part of the lot covered by the building to the elevation of the highest point of the part of the lot covered by the building and dividing by two. Height measurements shall be based on existing topography of the site, before grading for proposed on-site improvements.BUILDING 12BUILDING 14BUILDING HEIGHT ELEVATIONRANCH HOUSE ROADBuilding Existing Average Grade Elevation Bldg.
