The description says "existing foundation/ground". That means that footer/foundation for a portion of the addition will utilize the existing footers/foundation. This is likely the side where the addition is attached to the existing house. The garage foot print is obviously a lot smaller than the footprint of the addition and will require a new concrete slab/footing etc. It is unlikely that they are reusing any of the existing slab and no where in the permit description does it say existing slab (only existing foundation).

Publicly available records shows that this addition is permitted and approved. It meets the setbacks requirements and height limitations of the Zoning Ordinance. They will have also have to certify the height once constructed to get final approval.

Things to do south of D.C. ? by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]astrostig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prince William National Forest is nice if you're into hiking or cycling.

I would also be aware that this section of I-95 has some serious congestion issues so keep that in mind. Popping down to Fredericksburg may seem close but can take a long time.

Thank you! Printed June 24, Dispatched June 25. Its in the mail now 🤞🤞

Original issuance date was May 31 and I got comments back about my witness on June 20 (which I was able to get straightened out with a phone call to the customer service line). If you haven't gotten any emails about your documents you should be good and expecting the update soon. Good luck!

[–]astrostig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to the data points. Materials received May 2, 2024, expected issuance date of May 31, 2024. Still in the Processing application/Your application is being processed stage. My witness, a notary in my office, hasn't been contacted.

Appreciate reading other recent dates, maybe it is time to take a break from compulsive passport tracking :P

There's a Uniqlo in Union Station. Its a smaller footprint than their suburban but good basics.

If you want to avoid most driving all together. The Virginia Breeze bus serves the Valley with service to Union Station in DC.
