Correction Comments
1. Survey: Please provide a legal survey showing the calculated average grade. I have included the
definition of calculated average grade below for reference. This was a topic discussed in March of this
year when preliminary plans were submitted for review, but a clear resolution did not occur. The new
plans appear to be an improvement over preliminary plans; however, there may still be issues with
changes made above 35 feet from the calculated average grade. More comments are expected once the
calculated average grade is determined and shown on plans as required.
Grade, calculated average shall mean the average elevation of a site, calculated prior to development or
redevelopment of a site or any future topographic alteration of a site. The calculated average grade shall be
used for determination of the maximum allowable height of building on parcels that have topographical
variation of more than two (2) feet as demonstrated by a certified topographical survey and for all
oceanfront parcels. This average elevation shall be determined by the mathematical average of elevation
points dispersed at approximately ten-foot equidistant intervals across the buildable area of a parcel.
For sites where natural topography has been previously altered or where existing structures remain, the
same method shall be used excluding areas where existing structures remain.
Where required, the certified Calculated Average Grade Survey shall be submitted with Construction
Plans, and the Calculated Average Grade shall be depicted on all exterior elevation sheets of the
Construction Plans. See definition of Certified Survey for requirements.
