American Property Development, Inc. 110 . 110t11 Avenue N.E., Suite 550 Bellevue, Washington 98004 Telephone 425.455.2433 Fax 425.709.7214 height for roof fonius that do not contain habitable space. This equates to a total allowed BMU building height of 75'. Our total height for roof forms not containing habitable space is 7' which meets the height bonus maximum of 10'. However,in order to allow for greater ceiling height our total proposed building height for habitable space is 68' which exceeds the maximum allowed height of 65' (see sheet A5.1). We are requesting the additional 3' of building height proposed for the habitable space be allowed as it does not cause the building to exceed the total allowed maximum height of 75'. There are taller buildings in the vicinity including a four story residential building on the adjacent block to the South (BMU Zone) and an eight story residential building one and a half blocks to the North(B-2 Zone). This request is not a result of a self-created hardship but rather the exceptional circumstances regarding the size, shape and topography of the subject property. Please refer to sheet A5.1 which illustrates a 13'-4" slope differential from the West alleyway to the East side of the subject property that borders Broadway Ave. This topographical hardship raises the base elevation and specifically causes the 3' habitable space building height overage for which we are requesting the variance. As part of this land use application we have submitted a variance application for design modification approval of the height variance. We look forward to working with the City of Everett on this development that will bring additional residents to live in the downtown area. If there is anything needed to complete your review for approval,please feel free to call me at(206) 255-7580 or email at dsinnett(c�acg.com.
