However, sina the projact sioe is adjaant oo an R-1 mne, the l�ei�hts a�e reduced to 28' when located within 50' of the R-1 none and 35' wiKn locatad u least SO' but las tl�n 100' from the R-1 mne. 'lt�e proposed maximum buildin� heighb a�e 34' withia SO' a drc R-1 mne (a deviadon of 6'), 36' within SO' -100' of the R-1 mne (a deviatian of 1'), uid 35' over 100' from the R-1 zone (10' leas than the maximum).
