TGFTH

Oh, and they won't differentiate between the width of a small bungalow or a two story contributing structure when they are applying it to a new construction or for that matter a renovation. Also, I'm sure they won't account for how much these contributing structures have sunk over the years when they measure the eaves heights. Their end goal is very clear.

By measuring the width & eave heights of the contributing structures in the district the HAHC & staff are building a case to turn down new construction projects. They have been pushing to lower the overall eave heights below 22' which will make it impossible to have ceiling heights over 9' for the first floor & 8' for the second and by limiting the width of the home they can control the square footage of the homes. Those two combined will pretty much shut down new construction in the neighborhood. They barely passed 2 new construction homes (without staff recommendation) with eave heights of 24' but I was told that most likely you will not see anymore passed above 22'. The HAHC is out of control with their interpretation of this ordinance & the staff is completely lost.
