Recommendation
The Commission regrets that the rooftop mechanical units and the exposed ductwork, which are visible from a public thoroughfare, were installed prior to review. No objection to issuance of permit for proposed installation of solar panels as shown on supplemental drawings received 15 May 2015, PROVIDED that neither the panels nor the installation are visible from a public thoroughfare. Recommend submission at DCRA for a revised placement of the rooftop mechanical equipment and duct work to a location where they won’t be visible from a public thoroughfare, with permit application for review by the Commission. Note: Any subsequent modifications to the approved design, including those made during DCRA technical review, must be resubmitted to the Commission for approval prior to the issuance of a permit.
