15184 Elm Park
The proposed project is a request for a Site Development Permit (SS-20-07) for the reconstruction of an existing 2,921 square foot single-story home and approximately 653 square feet of additions and a new front porch. The proposal includes an increase in plate height from 8 feet to 10 feet, necessitating an increase in the roof height. The increase in plate height requires structural alterations to existing walls, thus requiring the replacement of existing walls not involved with the additions to be reconstructed. This project began as a building permit given the limited square footage of additions and the increase in roof height below or at 24” above existing; however, with the removal and reconstruction of the walls, the project now requires a Site Development Permit.
