Bitarchitects successfully resolved the issue of the overlapping deck constructed outside the rear setbacks in the R3/GT zoning district. The client had relied on the unconditioned deck to connect the first floor to the backyard, which included a BBQ area and a small seating arrangement. Bitarchitects provided strong code-compliance evidence that supported the resolution, ensuring the deck met regulatory requirements while allowing the client to continue enjoying the functionality of the outdoor space.
