Yes, I think a pre-app meeting is the best way to try to get this dumpster relocation issue resolved. I am not sure how to
set one up, exactly: I would call our main number (296-5832) to talk with our intake staff about scheduling a pre-app in
the near future. The County offices are closed Monday, 7/3, so the next available would be Monday, 7/10. We offer 2-3,
3-4, and 4-5 time slots; please choose a 3-4 or 4-5 slot so that it will not conflict with the ARB meeting (and I can be sure
to attend) if that meeting is held.
Right now, we have no cases for the 7/10 meeting and the "other business" items on the agenda are so few that it may
not make sense to hold a meeting; in which case, we would move those few business items to the 7/17 meeting and
cancel the 7/10 altogether. Margaret usually makes that decision the Monday before the meeting, but since we have
that Monday (7/3) off as a holiday, she has informed me she will make the call by the end of this week. So I will be in
touch with you by Friday as to whether the 7/10 meeting will be canceled or not.
Thanks,

Hi Heather - I would still like to pursue the dumpster location modification, but I don't want to hold up Chris on the
other 3 mods. Per a previous phone call, you had suggested requesting a Monday afternoon pre -application meeting,
with all parties in attendance. Since County offices are closed this coming Monday (7/3), I assume the soonest this can
happen is 7/10.
When will you know of the exact date of the ARB meeting?
Thanks for your support on these matters,
William McKechnie

Hi Chris,
Thank you for bringing in the brick samples on Friday. As per your request, we will seek the ARB's guidance on whether
to amend the original design intention to paint the foundation brick at the next ARB meeting, which will be either July 10
or July 17. If you believe you'll have any more changes or requests in the interim, please give them to me in writing well
before the July 10 meeting so that we can present the board with a comprehensive list of suggested modifications.
In the interim, I'd like to move forward on getting you a CoA for the new coping material, the substitution of metal for
wood on the brise soleil, and for the fixed doors. I think this would be the most expeditious way for you to move
forward, but it will mean that i will not be able to include the dumpster relocation as per the original application request
as I have not received an approved LOR for that request. In addition, this CoA will only address the three
aforementioned modifications that were specified in your original application. If you decide to move forward with
leaving the foundation brick unpainted, you will need to submit another ARB application for a County -wide CoA for
Minor amendments to site or architectural plans (no fee associated):

on how to proceed.
