know if you need anything further.

Amy sent me a copy yesterday afternoon Chris.Three sprinkler heads do not constitute a residential sprinkler
system. But since the code does not require one to be installed I can approve this application for the 3 sprinkler
heads as is. I spoke with James Barber late yesterday afternoon and forwarded all the emails to him. Again let me
say that the building inspections dept. is not holding up the building permit application for 2007 -1830 SF. To be
issued it must be signed off by engineering and zoning still. Thanks Chris for working with me on this.

Thanks Keith -- the message just said I needed to have a residential sprinkler system to get a building permit
approved. Amy, can you please confirm so we can finish with this one? Thanks for all your help.
Best,
Chris

I got it Chris and thanks. The one you can't put your hands on is the one I need to see. I do not know Amy but I
will attempt to contact her. Should you find the one from James please send it my way.
Thanks
Keith

Keith,
Here's the email trail. There was actually one after this one from Mr Barber talking about the residential sprinkler
system but I can't but my hands on it. I'm sure Amy (copied above) probably has this communication. Please let
me know if I can provide any additional info.
Thanks for your help,
Chris

Thank you, David, for the clarification on the building site issue.
If a building site does not exist adjacent to Fox Mt. Rd., then a critical slopes disturbance waiver from the PC will
not be required for the access to the building site at the rear of the lot. The disturbance will be exempt per 18-
4.2.6.c of the County Code. Please submit the reports from Gooch and the Health Dept. confirming the lack of a
viable drainage field area in the front portion of the lot.
Per Section 18- 4.6.6.c, you will need to obtain authorization from the County fire marshal, James Barber, for any
driveway grades greater then 16 %. Please submit this authorization to our office.
I have scheduled you in the 3:30 time slot for engineer meetings on 9/4.

Amy,
We would like to meet with you and the group next Thursday at 3:30 if that time is still available. Our concerns
include the following:
• The "alternative building site" along Fox Mt. Rd., that you mentioned in your letter, does not have a septic
drain field as determined by field investigation work by Gooch Engineering and Testing, Inc.
• The site at the top of the hill does have Health Dept. Approved septic and well sites per Gooch AOSE
report and is the only building site on the lot based on drain field availability.
• Some Critical Slopes have to be traversed by a driveway in order to gain access to the hilltop building site.
• The driveway was constructed steeper than 16% in some places so not to disturb more critical slopes than
absolutely necessary.
• Mr. Yordy would like to resolve, at this time, all the site issues associated with a County approved Building
Site in order to apply for a building permit in the future.
Please let me know if this meeting time is still available.
David

David,
I have a 3:30pm time slot available next Thursday during our engineers meetings. You are welcome to
come in, however, the 30- minute time slot of our engineering meetings can go quickly, especially if there is
a lot of ground to cover. If you could please advise me of the key items you need to discuss, I can be
prepared for the meeting, and /or respond to you ahead of time if possible.
Thank you,
