Changing <br /> it, in my opinion, would affect the aesthetics and the <br /> most logical use of the lot. Let me try to explain the <br /> factors I considered in determining the location of this <br /> driveway. <br /> The primary aesthetic intent was to create or allow some <br /> privacy and seclusion from Sugar Woods Drive. Another <br /> intent was to screen the garage doors from sight when <br /> viewed from Sugar Woods Drive as I felt that a head on <br /> view of them was not what this development was looking <br /> for and that the additional cost for extra blacktop would <br /> be well worth it. <br /> Another aesthetic point in favor of the current location <br /> is that it allows less existing vegetation to be <br /> disturbed thereby preserving the unaffected natural <br /> appearance of the lot as an outgrowth of the woodlands <br /> rather than an invasion into it. <br /> Now on to the logistics. Its only natural that the <br /> driveway should enter the lot at a location somewhat <br /> level with the garage floor elevation. Given the <br /> existing grades, the curve of the driveway allows a less <br /> drastic transition of any remaining difference in grade. <br />
