Subject: Request for Modifications to Length of Buildings and Allow Flexibility in Building
Layout/Footprint
Dear Ms. Barker,
We respectfully request modifications to the building lengths from 120 feet maximum, as specified in FWCC
Sec. 22-640, Note 5, individually for Buildings F, G, and J. Please see sheet A-1.0_
All new buildings will eventually be connected by ground and second level connectors. However, these
connectors will be setback and lower in roof elevation than the main building structures_ Together with
extensive facade modulation, all buildings will appear to be smaller individual structures.
Pursuant to Section 22-640, Note 3, modifications are allowed by the City based on the following criteria:
"a. The specific nature of the occupancy and the persons that will be housed in the proposed development" and
"b_ The size of the dwelling units or occupancy rooms or suites and the specific configuration of facilities
within these units, rooms or suites."
Response: The occupancy of the buildings will be those 55 years of age and older_ Any future kitchen will be
secondary or "satellite" serving kitchen as the main cooking facility was construction in previous Phase I
Building C. All utility rooms will be placed below grade to reserve most all above grade levels to be residential
units and small day/community rooms_
"c The impacts on nearby residential uses of the proposed development"
Response: The impact to nearby residential uses will be minimal due to buildings set back more than the
required building setbacks along V' Avenue S, SW 356 Street, and 2"d Avenue S. Extensive new tree planting
and landscaping will visually "soften" the building facades from the surrounding neighborhood.
"d_ The architecture, site design and other features of the proposed development.
Response: Please see Statement of Design Intent_
We would also like to request that certain flexibility be allowed in exact placement and building
footprint/outline or configuration be allowed, provided that all setbacks, height, and length of buildings
requirements are met_ Thank you for your consideration of this request_
Sincerely
lopment Manager
