Dear Mike,
On July 15, 2003 we received approval from City Commission for the above referenced
site plan. According to chapter 2 (zoning) section 4 (FI2) we would like to ask Staff,
Planning and the Development Board and City Commission to consider an exception to
the 45' height limitation. Enclosed please find ten (10) sets of drawings for submission
to the Board.
As set forth in the attach drawing there are approximately twelve (12) areas which exceed
the present heights limitations. However, this exception is being requested for non
habitable architectural elements for access to mechanical appurtenances (i.e. stairs, AlC
Equipment and Elevator). Attached is a breakdown of the areas requesting an exception
in Exhibit" A",
Accordingly, we would ask that our request for a height exception be submitted to the
Planning & Development Board hearing on March 23, 2004 or sooner.
Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.
