Erecting the Story Poles to show the size of the future buildings

January 22, 2008

We are getting ready to submit our application to the County of Santa Cruz to change the use of our property. For this application we need to show the location of each new building. Story poles (poles with the orange fencing around the top) are used to show the elevations and silhouettes of a proposed building. By erecting these story poles, the inspectors, neighbors and our devotees can see how each building will be situated on the land, its size and height. Over the next few weeks, we will build these story poles for each of the buildings.
