Garage Proposal. 620 Keller Parkway. David and Sarah Schwietz Project Proposal: • Construct one 20x14 accessory building • Tear Down existing garage structure • Construct one 42 x 30, 2 story, detached garage with basement Current Situation and Background Several years after the purchase of our house, it was learned that the existing home was built on top of some sort of city or county dump. Due to bad soil conditions, the existing house was built on pilings to support the structure. The existing detached garage, however, either does not have a piling system or was constructed improperly and Is experiencing structural issues. would first like to construct a small 20 x 14 accessory building with a false floor to house a lawn mower, snow blower, bikes, etc. This structure would not have a permanent foundation or poured slab due to the cost of the piling system and concrete (please see attachment). Secondly, I would like to tear down the existing garage structure and build a 2 story, detached garage with a basement for additional storage. The intent of the top floor of the garage structure would be for additional living space, but would not be completed until the garage was eventually attached to the home. Eventually, our existing house will need to be leveled and at that time, the rebuilt house will be attached to the garage and take advantage of the living space above. I understand there are concerns with 2 detached structures on my property but hopefully this will be allowed due to the size of my lot (approx 2 acres), the conditions of existing soil and the phased approached I'd like to take. Main Car Garage Plans The exact garage type and architecture has not been fully decided as of yet and will likely be influenced by what is allowed on our property.) have attached 4 different garage potential options which are all similar in main floor s square footage. Some of the garage options have upstairs living space potential and is the preferred design. Other plans just have storage space or storage lofts. All plans shown have a basement under the garage used for storage only. Constructions details regardless of the garage plan submitted include: o 2nd floor living space, storage space or loft o Basement for storage o Poured foundation and walls 0 Span -Crete for main floor parking 360. 0.92in.
