❗ Challenges & 💡 Solutions

❗ Challenge

City reviewers require a strictly accurate architectural scale (1” = 5’) AND require that the plan be printed precisely on 24×36 paper. Any scaling error often results in permit rejection.

💡 Solution

We drafted the site plan at true scale, added a printing instruction, and included all necessary dimensions and labels. The layout is intentionally clean to allow a fast review with no follow-up questions from the city.
