Subject: RE: 55-550,Southern Hills - Existing- Non -conforming HVAC
` Importance: High
AJ, .
David. Sawyer .& I went to the residence and looked at the conditions: David will allow them'to
relocate the unit nearest the street to be adjacent to the unit nearest the pool equipment
thereby,, allowing them to -have larger condensers but still not encroach into the sideyard greater
than the existing piping of the swimming .pool equipment. I spoke with Jason Walsh regarding
this scenario and he's okay with it since there will be an improvement for egress from the
bedroom window_ . and better fire access from the street.
Lynn, the owner said the contractor will be in on Tuesday to resubmit. Please route a
greenshek,to Eric.or David for Planning approval. I also -informed her that (-didn't see any
Energy Forms. Hopefully the. contactor will have everything and you will be able to. issue the
permit.

Subject: 55-550 Southern -Hills .Existing Non -conforming HVAC
ALL:
Joe Coker with Breese Air Conditioning has been dealing,with this, equipment setback issue for Richard and Lynn
Reich, but today I received a phone call -from Lynn Reich, and she feels somethingneeds to be done'to,
accommodate her situation. Her interpretation is that the City is prohibiting her to be 'Green' by not.allowing her to
update these HVAC systems to new high -efficiency units because of an error made allowing the units to be
installed in the setback originally. -
attached a sketch detailing the scope of work, plus two precise grading plans for the Heritage Collection.at PGA
West. One shows the residence in question.(Lot 76 — Tract 28149).and the other an identical model located across
the street (Tract 28341-1). You can see that the HVAC information has not been included on the precise grading
for the units -in question,.and since our building plans would not include lot lines to plan check for equipment
setbacks we do not have any evidence that these units were moved after final 'inspection. Additionally from what I
could tell the units and their installations are original from the final date.-The power and line-set shroud all look
original and do not have any patches around them.- In my opinion, since the equipment is a Slim -line type unit, some
sort of rationalization may have been made allowing the residence to pass final inspection.
But now I need support since'the owner is not taking no for answer. Any idea's to help solve this.problem?
