Mechanicsville H-1: Level I/II

4-M-05-HZ

Staff Recommendation

The proposed deck is in an offset on the west side of the house and the entrance doors are fully visible from Arthur. The double doors are out of scale with their location on the house, but a single door with a full pane would be appropriate.
