GRADING PROVISIONS cuss the major problems of the grading
provisions of the Code. Pointed out
were: (1) no consideration of volume
in the formula; (2) formula should be in graph form; (3) footprint of

tion for house footprint and access (4,000 sq.ft.), and an increased
formula, and report back to the Commission as soon as possible.
