Thank you, Don Measamer City of Anacortes Assistant Director, Planning & Community Development, Building Official Don@cityofanacortes.org Phone 360.293.1901 Fax 360.293.1938 From: mark christ [mailto:mark@markchrist.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 23, 2009 5:06 PM To: lanney60lncw@yahoo.com Cc: Measamer, Don Subject: Fw: Chandlers Square additon Hi Lanney, I had not had an opportunity to respond when I got your call earlier today: RE: Area Calculation I thought we had gone through a Conditional Use Permit and all of the Zoning issues were addressed at that time. We are still adding 25 apartments as indicated. However, we are now deleting 1 of the 66 existing apartments. This gives us a total of 90 apartments. This is less than the 108 apartments that Don said we were permitted to have. (correspondence follows) RE: Parking Spaces As I recall it was agree to that; assuming we didn't lose any of the existing parking spaces, we were permitted to calculate additional parking requirements (which to be located on the new site) based on the Addition. We are adding 25 apartments X 0.8 spaces per apartment= 20 parking spaces. We are adding 26 standard parking spaces plus(3)ADA parking spaces for a total of 29 parking spaces. Note: This was agreed to because the original Chandler's Square was so under designed for parking that even while adding 9 extra spaces we are still 8 spaces short for the overall site. This could not have been a viable project otherwise. RE: Building Height On April 10th 1 mentioned that we were 9"over the 35' height limit with a 6/12 pitch and I asked if this would this be acceptable. It was not. Therefore the roof pitch was reduced to 5.4/12 in order to reduce the height. Please see A& B on sheet A11. Likewise the Clocktower was reduced in height by 4". Please See A& B on sheet Al which indicates both the roof heights in relation to the Existing Average Grade. I will forward my email with attachments from April 6th in which I provided the height calculations. There has been no change in the floor to floor heights. The roof pitch was reduced to 5.4/12 and the Clocktower attic was reduced by 4" in order to comply. Sincerely, Mark Christ i -----Original Message----- From: mark christ To: Lanney Wixson Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2008 2:30 PM Subject: Re: Chandlers Square additon Hi Lanney, It sounds like Don is giving us the maximum number of units permitted by the zoning code, based on the size of your property. If the zoning code permits a maximum of 108 units, and we are currently at 66 units; then we i have a balance of 42 units. In this case, the maximum number of units may still be dictated by the associated parking and the physical constraints of the site. At your request, I will be glad to discuss providing you with a proposal for architectural services. The schematic design phase of architectural services typically includes a review of both the zoning code and the building code for compliance issues.
