[p1] - historical comments <br />[p2] - City/County/JDA recommendations for resiliency - The JDA, Cityt, and County have, for years, assessed and <br />indicated it desires passive solar building design. The policy white paper from 11-03-14 andd again in 2015 and <br />elsewhere recommends that the city could consider including prioritization of energy efficiency, climage change <br />adaptation, or energy resilience as party of it's comprehensive plan. (TOD: look into JDA response to 11-03-14 <br />JDA memo) They include ene for design sthat include proper orientation, large south-facing glazing, massing, <br />building transparecy to maximize solar heat gain, etc, etc... even going so far as to show that passive solar can <br />cover 60-80% of their needs with passive solar. (we cover more) <br />[p3] - There is a small aux heating system, roughly the power of a space heater, spec'd to kick in as needed when <br />the temps drop below -4 and the sun is not out for a few days. It did not get turned on at all in the 2016-2017 <br />winter. <br />[p4] We sited our house on our property, combined with wall and window location, so as to minimize views (both in <br />and out) of other existing houses and to maintain our privacy. <br />[p5] A good example is that our master bedroom contains a window that is 8 feet wide and goes down to my <br />knees. This window looks out upon our backyard and the wooded area in the back of 3685. For someone on the <br />ground, it's quite private. If a houses are located at the proposed locations, it makes blinds almost a requirement <br />for any semblance of privacy in our previously perfectly-private bedroom. <br />[p6] Due to the inward-tilt-and-turn design of our windows, blinds cannot go on the inside of many of our windows. <br />[p7] Quote provided from Total Air and Furnace and builder upon request <br />[p8] 81-24 <br />[p9] 07-25-16-SWS, JDA policy white paper from 11-03-14 andd again in 2015. In 2016, (07-25-16-SWS) indicates <br />that access to direct solar is important in the 2040 comprehensive plan as well as being included in the checklist of <br />minimum requirements for arden hills and a requirement to protect solar access within the 7-county metro area. <br />[p10] kill tree info <br />.
