There are two goals of this presentation
- To demonstrate your knowledge of zoning and how to specifically apply this knowledge to your site
- To demonstrate how your proposed building can be built within your sites zoning restrictions including but not limited to zoning district (C6-4, etc.) FAR, sky exposure plane and setbacks.
- If your building does not conform to the existing zoning, your team must apply for a variance and must use zoning rules and text to make your argument for approval.
- Remember that you must back up all of your conclusions by showing the relevant portion of the zoning text.
- Credit yourselves by showing initials for each slide you contributed to. Â You may show the work of any of the team members as a part of this presentation.
Include the following: it’s a good idea to follow the logic of how you produced your zoning solution and sheets. Â Each team MUST follow this outline in this order.
- Team cover slide with photos and presentation title
- Where is the site? Show environs, site plans, identify your zoning district (show map)
- Site plan with dimensions – drawn based on your digital tax map. Â Show street names and identify each as narrow or wide.
- Show your Calculations.
- Site x FAR = maximum allowable buildable sq ft.
- Subtract any existing building area to remain
- Show total remaining buildable.
- Also show the area of your proposed building and tell us if you are over or under. Â If you are under the allowable how much more is left and how would your team propose to use this extra area?
- Setbacks and Sky Exposure Plane
- Working from the street type (wide/narrow) show your solution for both setbacks and sky exposure plane. Â You can show these separately or together.
- Show how your building fits within the zoning envelopes.
- You should be doing this in drawings – isometrics, elevations with dimensions for site, setbacks, heights, slope of sky exposure.
- Show your zoning text backup for each conclusion as part of this section of the presentation.
- Conclusion:
- Can you build “as of right” or will you require a variance? Â If you require a variance (change in zoning) this is where you make your proposal.
- Building Analysis- egress:
- Showing a floor plan- evaluate how well the building conforms to egress requirements.
- You do not need to repeat a detailed building analysis that was already included in the previous presentation.
Remember you have only 10 minutes so be clear and direct.
This is a group presentation and a group grade. Â Each of you should contribute – both by producing information for the presentation and by being part of the oral presentation.
Less is more – keep it clear – do not repeat things within the presentation and do not repeat things from your previous presentations.
Upload to blackboard by midnight before your day of presentation. Â Only 1 team member needs to upload the presentation – but be sure that all of your names are in the file name. Â This is the file that will be used for presentation – you will not be able to swap out a file at presentation.
As an individual you will all be posting your zoning sheets to blackboard by midnight Sunday March 5th.
