Plan set

Plan Set Requirements: Zoning officer requires that the page in the planset showing mounting details show that the distance from the roof surface to the **TOP** of the solar pane will be **less than** 6 inches. He also requires that this be **DRAWN TO SCALE**. I've been informed by design that drawing the page to scale isn't possible so **for all projects in this AHJ please create an elevation drawing showing a basic front and side view of the house with mods installed. Please be sure it's notated that the TOP of the solar panels will be less than 6 inches from the roof surface.** -KR

Attachment Detail: 5/27/21 - Update - in conversation with design it's been determined that the required page cannot be drawn to scale. To satisfy AHJ requirements, please create an elevation drawing of the house with solar panels. Drawing must have note stating that the TOP of the solar panels will be less than 6 inches off the roof surface. -KR Must show distance from roof to top of panel (6'' max) -DB * **AHJ requires that drawing showing distance from roof to top of panel is DRAWN TO SCALE -KR** ** ** **IF THE PROPOSED SOLAR PANELS PROJECT MORE THAN 6 INCHES, THEN PLEASE PROVIDE A BUILDING ELEVATION, DISPLAYING THE NEW BUILDING HEIGHT. -KR**
