I also think that they are really meeting the spirit and intent of the ordinance in that um you know even though only a portion of it is the two stories and over the 18 feet in height the whole structure is required to meet that greater setback. However the portion that is two stories and is over 18 ft in height is set back more than 12 feet. It is 16 feet set back from that rear property line.

Uh yes, that was the hope and the intent was I think original plan was a full twostory structure on that and it just looked overbuilt um on that property size and I said at the end of the day if I could just get a third stall garage with enough of the loft space and we tried to build that within uh condition thus the inside of the 12 ft the taller part but to get the ceiling height to get up there was is the reason we need the 11 in

One of the things that we did talk about was a sliding scale and that if you could remember uh during the conversations we said okay for every foot you go up above the one story you go back one foot and that is what we came up with as the the sliding scale rule essentially.

But in your case, right, yes, there's a road behind there, but then there's also a train track and I don't see any homes being built anywhere on a train track, right? And so if I would have treated as an alleyway, you know, just mentally, then this again wouldn't really have an impact.
