Building Development Services staff reported that Hammis Electric (applicant) graded and placed a power pole and graded the ridge top without a permit, was issued a notice of violation, applied for a retroactive permit to stabilize the disturbance, and that staff recommends denial of a variance to allow ridge-top construction as inconsistent with SLBC/SLDC criteria.
