BZA Variance Request, PZ-2020-00167, UDO 2.18
Considerations regarding UDO
Story: the part of any Building comprised between the level of one finished floor and the level of the
next higher finished floor or, if there is no higher finished floor, that part of the Building comprised
between the level of the highest finish floor and the top of the roof beams
•Nothing in the ordinance suggests that building A would be defined as four stories as opposed to
three
•If this building were to be constructed on a slab on grade, the foundation wall would be unchanged
at the southeastern corner of Building A
Design Considerations:
•The control for designing where to set grade is the west end of the building, where the future
roundabout meets Smoky Row
•It is the existing grade change along Smoky Row that makes the road slope downhill and the design
to match grade at the southeastern corner of Building A
•The exposure of the foundation wall is alleviated by breaking it with two tiered planters
