11. POLICY ANALYSIS
 The Architectural Review Board heard the compatibility request
at their October 19, 2021 meeting and voted unanimously to
recommend approval of the design as compatible with the
following suggestions:
 1) that the designer review the roof height so that the main
roof pitch of the body of the main structure be parallel to
the roof pitch of the dormer towards the front of the
residence increasing the height of the main building to the
allowable 28ft height allowed by code providing better
balance.
