And please state your name for the record.

1:53

No name is Clarify.

1:55

I made it a home directly above this law.

1:58

So it says it's 518 square feet.

2:01

Does it say the height?

2:03

That's what I'm really interested in.

2:05

Okay.

2:08

We'll get that answer for you.

2:12

On page two of the staff report.

2:21

Oh, it says two.

2:23

Okay.

2:24

Go past the picture.

2:26

Yeah, next page.

2:28

See that at the bottom proposed structure height is 20.5 feet.

2:33

Is that is that like a single story or yes.

2:37

It is a single story.

2:38

Single story.

2:40

Okay.

2:42

Okay.

2:43

Yeah.

2:44

Oh, it oh, here's the image.

2:45

Are they included in this as well?

2:47

Okay.

2:47

Yes.

2:49

So it will eventually be just a residence.

2:54

It's going to start out at 518 square feet, but it's going to what they're what they're the whole big picture that they're going to be doing is building a single family home.

3:06

But the single family home doesn't require an administrative permit.

3:10

So the only I the only portion of the single family home that we are looking at and reviewing, and it's before the hearing today.

3:19

Sorry, today is the ADU, which is 518 square feet.

3:25

Okay.

3:25

Because that's different than what the zoning is.

3:28

It's in the in this particular zoning district, single family one acre and administrative permit is required to have an ADU.

3:36

So that is what is before us today.

3:39

Not the home in general because that's allowed by code.

3:42

Okay.

3:43

And the home, the overall home, is going to be 2,413 square feet.

3:51

And then the ADU is 518 square feet for a total of 2,931 total square feet.

3:58

Okay.

3:59

And the garage is 588.

4:02

And the height?

4:04

It's 20.5 feet.

4:07

For the whole structure.

4:09

Yes.

4:11

If you look on page 8-4 of the plans.

4:14

A four, okay.

4:16

Okay.

4:18

If you look on the south elevation, it shows the overall height is 20.5 feet.

4:24

Okay, so that's no taller than a single story.

4:27

Correct.

4:27

Okay.

4:28

Correct.

4:29

Is there any other public comment?

4:31

I'm looking at the uh drawing A2, which is a floor plan.

4:37

Which part of that structure is the So see where the garage is where the car is parked?

4:44

Yes.

4:44

Yes.

4:44

If you go straight up from there, see where it says proposed ADU.
