I haven't received them yet; the usual time for the <br /> City Engineer is a week. I will forward them to you and the surveyor when I receive them. <br /> Evelyn Turner <br /> -----Original Message----- <br /> From: Timothy Pellizzer [mailto:timothy@terragardencenter.com] <br /> Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 3:22 PM <br /> To: Evelyn M.

At our last conversation, the city <br /> engineer and wetland consultant were to examine the survey. Do you know if they have <br /> completed their work? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks. <br /> Tim Pellizzer <br /> Evelyn M. Turner wrote: <br /> >Brian: <br /> > <br /> > I don't think we need to meet today.

It's unfortunate that you did not <br /> give me a call to discuss the plan issues with regard to grade we could have saved <br /> everyone a lot of time and effort. The plans are substantively the same as we submitted to <br /> Melanie Curtis on 11-07 with very few changes. We spent a number of ineetings and time with <br /> the City clarifying the issues surrounding the definition of basement as set out in your <br /> code. <br /> > <br /> >The surveyor should have listed 952.7 as top of first floor. This would make the points <br /> at which the 946.7 grade intersect the building as the determining points of the code. I <br /> have shown this on the attached sketch. This ends up with a calculation of basement 6' or <br /> less at 212.8 feet and greater at 195. 6 feet. Just a point of clarification, the <br /> trusses are top chord bearing so all of the truss except for 3 inches sits below the <br /> foundation wall. <br /> > <br /> >Please let me know what the City requires regarding my credentials, Although I am not <br /> registered , after gracluating from Cornell University with a Bachelor of Architecture, I <br /> have acted as a residential architect for 33 years and during that time as a builder for <br /> 15 years. I am currently the director of remodeling at Sharratt Design and have been <br /> involved with numerous projects approved by Orono. I am chairman of the Maple Plain <br /> Planning Commission and have been with that group for 8 years. Because Tim and Brenda are <br /> long term friends I am doing this project outside Sharratt Design having started the work <br /> before I went to work with Mike. <br /> > <br /> 1 <br />
