Cal Seia has helped me in the past with rolling through the local jurisdiction. Who does their city attorney answer to? The Mayor? You need to help get his attention in another way.

The arrays will be on the flat roof of a house that is right up against the allowable building height. The city is requiring that we apply for a waiver to exceed the allowed height. As I read California law, it allows public agencies to rule on a permit application only in regards to public safety and health issues. Repeated letters to the city attorney has failed to result in how a building height limitation is a mater of public health and safety. Have any of you successfully fought a building department on this issue? If so, is there any written documentation on the issue that I can use?
