To the extent that it helps (particularly in the townhouse neighborhoods), footings and foundations and basements are not considered structures and therefore, it would be possible to do this work anywhere on the site beyond the 150 foot radius tram a Class 5 drive. The City could issue building permits for these structures with a limitation that the construction not extend beyond the, basement until emergency vehicle access can be provided. . City staff is working to provide addresses for this area prior to the issuance of building permits. It is important to have temporary address numbers on the building site during construction. .
