Per City when applying for a zoning-Construction/development permit, include on the plot plan the requested encroachment % and the reason, staff will review. IF the reason is due to topographical issues with an explanation of the hardship, this may be something considered as acceptable as it is not created by the applicant, but the topo will be reviewed.
