First thing for you to do is to contact the city/county engineer's office. Only they would be able to tell you if your plan is permitted or not.

Max Height is 35ft, Max Perimeter Wall is 21ft; Max FAR is 0.5; Front Yard at least 10 ft, Rear Yard at leat 30ft. Side Yards at least 10ft total, each at least 2ft wide;

Besides these requirements, also has to see driveway min depth, Front Yard comparing to Adjacent Front Yard, distance between neighboring house and so on.

I think you should stop spamming this newsgroup. Your blatant shilling for your firm is simply stupid.

Keep it up and see what happens.

Rico, I appreciate your suggestion to keep this newsgroup away from spam. Without volunteers like you, this group may become a place full of garbage such as many other google groups. But I dont think we should avoid memebers to post any construction industry related topics. These are not spam but good questions. the purpose for this newsgroup is to help people exchange knowledge and information, right? I suggest the administrator publish a rule to let members know what should post and what should not.
