Property Requirements Report
The dimensional envelope, figure by figure. Setbacks, lot coverage, floor area ratio, height, density, and parking — each one tied to the ordinance section it comes from.
The envelope, as delivered
Where an existing condition exceeds a current standard, we say whether it is legal non-conforming and what triggers loss of that status. That is the figure underwriting actually needs.
Overlay districts, planned-unit development conditions, and recorded variances all modify the base standard. When one applies, the table reports the governing figure, not the base-district figure.
- Front setback
- 25 ft required / 22 ft existing
- Setback status
- Legal non-conforming
- Maximum height
- 45 ft / 3 stories
- Lot coverage
- 60% max / 48% existing
- Parking required
- 1.5 per unit · 63 spaces
Questions commonly asked
Direct answers, the ones we get on calls.
- No — we are not surveyors and we do not represent our figures as survey. Existing conditions come from the documents of record: the recorded plat, the approved site plan, prior permit drawings. If you need measured conditions, order an ALTA survey and we will read our figures against it.
- It protects the condition as it stands, usually until the use is abandoned for a stated period or the structure is damaged past a stated threshold. Both of those numbers are jurisdiction-specific, and both are in the report — they are the terms a lender cares about.
- No. This report is the dimensional envelope only. The use question is the Use Allowance Report; the Zoning Conformance Report covers both for a single property, with the exhibits.
- We retrieve it and the table reports the varied standard as governing, with the case number and the date of approval. An unrecorded variance is a real risk in some jurisdictions, and we flag it when the file suggests one exists.
