Home My WebLink AboutM_Request to Waive Elevations_2103031 Brittany Gillia From:Brittany Gillia Sent:Wednesday, March 3, 2021 2:47 PM To:'Susan Hopkins' Cc:AAAMarjiLynn; Kevin Louder Subject:RE: Hopkins Shed Variance Re: Update? Attachments:W_Waiver_210303_v2.pdf; M_Invoice_210303.pdf; TR_Significant_Tree_Report_Hopkins_210301 _v1.pdf Hello Sue and Marji, Staff has reviewed your submitted information and is able to grant your request to waive the architectural elevations. Please see the attached updated waiver form. Can you please send me a site plan that relates to the tree inventory that you’ve submitted? You can label each tree with a symbol and have that symbol correlate to the table on the “significant tree report” document; I need some clarification on which trees on the site plan relate to the list of trees and shrubs you have provided. I do not need you to label all plants/shrubs; I’d just like to know where the trees on your site are located and what their size/species is. Once you have that map/site plan sent to me and have paid the attached invoice, we can discuss project acceptance and see if we can get the project out tomorrow. Let me know if you have any questions.

We respectfully request a deferral of the Architectural Elevations requirement, and approval to proceed with the variance process as is. Because this requirement was initially waived, we subsequently needed to place an order for the drawings and there is significant lead time to obtain them. In the interim, we've attached the builder's engineering and construction plans. Along with the attached building photos and descriptions, we hope this provides adequate information for the purpose of the variance, determining if the shed can remain in its current location. If there is anything else we can help clarify, let us know. Given your upcoming vacation, we would appreciate whatever you can do to facilitate project acceptance before you leave. Please also provide the name of your backup with whom we can work on this project in your absence.
