Hello Scott,
For my purposes in reviewing the construction permit plan set, I will consider the comment I made in regards to
scale and massing and architectural review to have been addressed by the revised design and will not be
holding up permit issuance for the revised design because of architectural review. That’s as much confirmation
as I can give.
Applicable guidelines about scale and massing suffer from some degree of subjectivity and ambiguity, and the
proposed building pushes the envelope in that regard. One could make a fair argument on either side about
the appropriateness of further review (i.e. architectural review), and so reducing scale and massing is the
clearest way to stay on the “compatible height and massing” side of the argument. As I say, however, I do
intend to “clear” the outstanding Planning comment in light of your revised reduced-scale design…
Hope that helps…
