Hi Angie,
Thanks for this helpful info. We had our 2 architects go out there yesterday and measure. I have attached
their review below. By using the character building on 31 Rangeline, we are finding it to be approximately 31’
tall. The home we proposed at 411 is 35” tall, so the difference is 4’. That said, it would put our client’s home
about 3’ less than the maximum 7’ dimension.
I can continue working on the other questions, like windows and trim if you believe this data will solve for the
height question. Look forward to hearing back!
Paul

Good morning, Paul –
The document excerpt you have attached looks like the CHPC’s architectural survey. That does not apply in this
situation.
Per the Character Buildings Map (Figure F) on page 113 of the .pdf of the UDO, the nearest two Character Buildings
were/are at 321 1st Ave SE and at 241 1st Ave SE. However, 241 was recently demolished, so I guess you can look at the
3rd closest Character Building, which would be 31 Rangeline Rd. S. That is a two story building, so that might help your
case! We will need the height of 31 Rangeline Rd. S.
Thanks,

Hi Angie,
Quick question for you…on this 411 First Avenue project in for permit, you had mentioned the contributing
building was at 321. See attached and below snippet. I also attached some documents we were reviewing
and wanted to clarify. Are you sure that 321 is the contributing building we must use? Is it the only one? As
you know, we’re 9’ taller than the 7’ maximum you mentioned, based on 321. However, there are other
buildings in that area that are 2-story. iIseems like without a variance, lot 411 is mandated to be a ranch. Just
want some added feedback if you can so we can be intelligent when we meet with our clients. Thanks as
always!
