POINTE DEVELOPMENT COFZPORATIUN, CASE 1654 <br />A. <br />Ei. <br />C. <br />u, <br />Buildinq Location <br />Page 2 <br />One of the benefits of the revised plan is a significant <br />increase in the setbacks on the residential properties to the <br />south and to the structure. The three story structure was <br />located 76 feet from the south property line in the original <br />proposal. This distance is now increased to 125 feet. On <br />the west, the original structure was located the minimum <br />of 30 feet from the west property line which is the City <br />park. In the new proposal, this distance is increased to <br />155 feet. These distances are sliown as they relate to the <br />old end the new site plan on the second sheet of the <br />applicant's set of drawings. <br />Duildinq Heiqht <br />That portion of the struc¢ure nearest the south property <br />line, which is the back yard of the contiguous residential <br />lots fronting on the north side of Drooks Avenue, is now <br />proposed to be four stories. The height of this structure <br />to the top of the parapet 3s 40 feet as indicated in the <br />section in drawing 3. The revised structure, however, will <br />not have a gabted roof and, ti�us, is relatively closQ to the <br />former height of the thre� story stcucture. The remainder <br />of th� new structure, located approximetoly in the center <br />of the site, is proposed to be six starres high. '�ou will <br />note from the e�xamination of the section on sheet 3 thet <br />being setback f�rther to the north, the line of site from <br />the aingle-family realdence to the aouth is very neerly thet <br />of the four story structure. Due to the signlflcant Incraase <br />to the aetback frar� these reaidences, the visu�l impact of <br />the change woutd a�ppear to be rQlatively rninar. <br />Parkinq <br />The n�w proposal wi;l have Chree more units than the <br />previoua design, there boIng a totel of 215 unl ts cu�rrently <br />praposed.
