(Con.'t) Mark Donaldson was present on behalf of the applicant. Mark pointed changes in the buildings along the river noticing three different building designs in the project thereby giving more distance between the buildings. The length of buildings along the frontage of the river have been reduced but the applicant is not proposing to reduce the density with the opportunity to change some of the two level units into two one level units. Chairperson Hunn inquired on the percentage of length taken out of the buildings. The applicant responded with 25% reduction in length. Commission member Rhoda Schneiderman made clear that the design has nothing to do with the PUD making it up to the discretion of the Commission to interpret. The applicant explained the maximum height line when set parallel to the grade line the dormer in some cases gets clipped. The overall height could be raised up to three feet or allow dormers to encroach and keep the overall ridge height. The latter was the applicants preference. Chairperson Hunn opened the public hearing. No comments. Public hearing closed. The Commission complemented the reduction of three building by one bay. The preferred building height issue was suggested the Commission go with the lesser height and give a condition of encroachment for the dormer.
