Board of Adjustments Minutes Page 2 January 26,2021 height restrictions and not require a variance,wondering if the area of the structures could be reviewed separately from the structure height. Mr. Leeseberg stated the area and height variances could be reviewed together or separately,whichever the commission preferred. Acting Chair Thiel opened the public hearing. He asked the district representatives if the structure heights of 16'-8" could be lowered to meet the restriction. Patrick Triggs and Justin Lenz, representing Wold Architects and Engineers, stated they worked to minimize the height of those structures as much as possible and arrived at the 16'-8" slope to meet certain criteria. He stated with its use as a storage building, there were limitations of how low they could make the openings to allow loading and unloading of equipment. Mr. Triggs stated as a result, the openings needed to be a certain size. He stated because the roofs are gabled, they need to maintain a certain slope to allow proper drainage and to meet the roofing warranty. Therefore,he stated they determined the roof needed to be 16'-8". There being no one else to speak,Acting Chair Thiel closed the public hearing. Commissioner Johnson stated he was in favor of approving the variances, due to the uniqueness of the property multiple uses, and he had no issue approving it.
