b. What level of visual impact is acceptable? (Fencing, and impact on scenic vistas)
c. Does project degrade visual character of site or surroundings?
3. Determination of whether house height. The Zoning Ordinance requires height to be calculated from average natural grade. What are the appropriate points to measure average natural grade from? Should this be calculated from the average natural grade of the house foundation, or can the proposed underground tunnel be taken into account?
