Santa Fe Dr. Littleton, CO 80120 Dear Mr. Lord: RE: Case No. WA -16-09 At its meeting of July 28, 2016, the Board of Adjustment APPROVED your request for two variances. The first is a request for a variance to the maximum size permitted for an accessory structure in the Residential -One (R-1) zone district. The second is a request for a variance to permit a metal accessory structure for the property located at 3390 Oak Street. FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1. The proposed pool cover will appear incidental to the home, and significant property investment will occur as a result of approval of the variance. 2. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. 3. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare. 4. No objections were received regarding the variance request. 5. The building is only 13 -feet tall. 6. There is no variance request for setbacks or maximum lot coverage. 7. The building is primarily transparent with less than 10% metal. WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 1. The design and architecture of the proposed enclosure shall be consistent with representations depicted in the application materials, subject to staff review and approval through review of a building permit. 2. If any existing perimeter tree is removed or becomes damaged during construction, it shall be replaced with a minimum 2" caliper tree or 6 -foot tall evergreen tree. Enclosed is a copy of the Certificate of Resolution, as well as a draft copy of the minutes, stating the Board's decision. All variance approvals automatically expire within 180 days of the date approval unless a building permit for the variance is obtained within such period of time. The expiration date for this variance approval is January 28, 2017. Please feel free to contact me at (303) 235-2846 if you have any questions. Sincerely, Tammy Odea Administrative Assistant Enclosures: Draft of Minutes Certificate of Resolution (to follow by separate mailing) cc: WA -16-09 (case file) WA 1609.doc WW"v-ci.w hcatridge.co.us 4. The granting of the variance would not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. 5. The application is in substantial compliance with the applicable standards set forth in the Architectural and Site Design Manual. Motion passed by a vote of 7-0 B. Case No. WA -16-09: An application filed by Designs by Sundown for approval of two variances. The first is a request for a variance to the maximum size permitted for an accessory structure in the Residential -One (R-1) zone district. The second is a request for a variance to permit a metal accessory structure for the property located at 3390 Oak Street. The case was presented by Lisa Ritchie. She entered the contents of the case file and packet materials, the zoning ordinance and the digital presentation into the record. She stated all appropriate notification and posting requirements have been met and advised the board there was jurisdiction to hear the case. She reviewed the digital presentation. Ms. Ritchie explained the area of the property is 25,600, sq. ft., just a little over half an acre with an existing single family home on the property. The intent of this request is to build a retractable pool enclosure. It would be 500 sq. ft. larger than the 1000 sq. ft. permitted in the R-1 zone district. The pool enclosure will be an anodized aluminum frame with a polycarbonate sheeting, kind of like a green house. The back portion will be fixed and then part of it can retract or keep the pool covered during the colder months. The structure will only be 13 -feet in height which is 2 -feet under the allowable height. There were no neighborhood objections. One of the conditions would be to have the owner replace any trees on the property if they should die from becoming damaged or diseased. Board Member PAGE stated she found a typo in the staff report and the model for approval. Number three under For the Following Reasons should not be included in the approval. Board Member GRIFFETH asked who came up with the condition of replacement of trees and if that will transfer to later owners of the property. Ms. Ritchie stated that staff came up with this condition as long as the structure is in place and the property owner agreed with it. Also, it will transfer to the next owners. Chair ABBOTT asked about how staff came up with the tree replacement condition because he has never heard of this being done before. Ms. Ritchie explained she discussed it with the director and the structure won't be visible to the neighbors because of the vegetation and because they are getting a benefit above and beyond what the zoning code will allow so staff determined it was reasonable to make the request. Board of Adjustment Minutes July 28, 2016 6 Board Member HOVLAND wondered if the tree replacement is in perpetuity or during construction and feels it is far reaching if it is in perpetuity. Ms. Ritchie state it is in perpetuity, but the Board can state how they would like it in the motion. Board Member BELL feels it is important to maintain vegetation. Roy Martin, Owner 3390 Oak Street, Wheat Ridge Jeremiah Lord 8562 Ingalls Circle, Arvada Mr. Martin explained he wanted to create an oasis in the backyard that is private and the trees were mature when we placed them in the yard and this was by design. He stated he has no problem replacing the trees and has done so in the past when he lost four trees to a devastating storm in 2009. A few trees will be removed right up against the house to install the pool, but this will not affect the neighbors view. Chair ABBOTT asked why does the owner need such a large structure and why metal. Mr. Martin explained he would like some walking room around the pool when the structure is closed during the winter months and aluminum is the only material that satisfies the requirement to look good over a long period of time. Mr. Lord added that when the structure is closed the owners want the pool to be functional and safe to walk around. It will be also be non -impactful to the neighborhood and will increase the property value. Board Member PAGE asked if the structure was attached to the house if the variance would be needed. Ms. Ritchie said no, not if it is attached to the house. Bruce Waring, neighbor 3370 Oak Street, Wheat Ridge Mr. Waring says he is in favor of the variance. We live in a great neighborhood and nobody disapproves, the view will not be obstructed and there will be no other impacts. The tree requirement is a nice idea as part of the construction, but in perpetuity if far reaching and shouldn't be required. Board Member PAGE asked what the requirement is about fencing pools. Mr. Lord explained that because there is already a 6 -foot fence around the backyard then the requirements have been met. Board of Adjustment Minutes July 28, 2016 7 Upon a motion by Board Member GRIFFETH and second by Board Member HOVLAND, the following motion was stated: WHEREAS, application Case No. WA -16-09 was not eligible for administrative review; and WHEREAS, the property has been posted the fifteen days required by law and in recognition that there were no protests registered against it; and WHEREAS the relief applied for may not be granted without detriment to the public welfare and without substantially impairing the intent and purpose of the regulations governing and City of Wheat Ridge NOW, THERFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Board of Adjustment application Case No. WA -16- 09 be, and hereby is APPROVED. TYPE OF VARIANCE: a variance to the maximum permitted size for an accessory structure, and a request for approval of a variance to permit a metal accessory structure. FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1. The proposed pool cover will appear incidental to the home, and significant property investment will occur as a result of approval of the variance. 2. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. 3. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare. 4. No objections were received regarding the variance request. 5. The building is only 13 -feet tall. 6. There is no variance request for setbacks or maximum lot coverage. 7. The building is primarily transparent with less than 10% metal. WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 1.

The first is for approval of a 500 square foot variance from the permitted size of 1,000 square feet for an accessory building permitted, and the second is to permit a metal accessory structure. LOCATION OF REQUEST: 3390 Oak Street APPLICANT (S): Jeremiah Lord, Designs by Sundown OWNER (S): W Kathryn Martin Living Trust APPROXIMATE AREA: 25,156 square feet (0.58 acres) PRESENT ZONING: Residential -One (R-1) PRESENT LAND USE: Single Family Residential ENTER INTO RECORD: (X) CASE FILE & PACKET MATERIALS (X) ZONING ORDINANCE Board of Adjustment Case No. WA -16-09 /Martin JURISDICTION• All notification and posting requirements have been met; therefore, there is jurisdiction for the Board of Adjustment to hear this case. I. REQUEST There are two requests being made by the applicant. First, the applicant is requesting approval of a variance to allow an accessory building 500 square feet larger than the permitted size of 1,000 sq ft, resulting in an accessory building that would be 1,500 sq ft. Per the Residential -One (R-1) zone district standards, a major accessory building can be no larger than 1,000 sq ft. The second request is for a variance to approve a metal accessory structure larger than 120 square feet in a residential zone district which is prohibited in Section 26-625. Accessory buildings and structures. The goal of the two requests is to allow the construction of a retractable outdoor pool enclosure that is built with an aluminum frame and polycarbonate sheeting. Section 26-115.C. Variances and waivers empowers the Board of Adjustment to hear and decide on variances from the strict application of the zone district development standards. The first request is within the threshold of an administrative approval, but the second request requires Board of Adjustment consideration. The Community Development Director determined that both requests should be considered by the Board of Adjustment during a public hearing as part of the same case. II. CASE ANALYSIS The applicant, who is representing the owners, is requesting the two variances at 3390 Oak Street in order to construct a 1,500 square foot metal framed retractable pool enclosure in the rear yard at the single family residence. Wxhibit 1, Aerial). The property is zoned Residential -One (R-1), a zone district that provides high quality, safe, quiet and stable low-density residential neighborhoods, and to prohibit activities of any nature which are incompatible with the low-density residential character. The property is located on the southeast corner of Oak Street and 34th Place. The total lot area is 25,156 square feet (0.58 acres), per the Jefferson County Assessor. The property is in an area predominately zoned R-1. The neighborhood character is low density residential to the south, east and west. There is some R-2 and R-3 zoning to the north of 35th Avenue. (Exhibit 2, Zoning Map). The subject lot currently contains a single family home that was constructed in 2001, per the Jefferson County Assessor. The lot is platted as Lot 13A of the Distinctive Addresses at Applewood Amendment #1 Subdivision. The lot was originally two lots in the subdivision, which were consolidated under case number LLA -00-03 in 2000 by the current owner. The single story home has a footprint of approximately 3,937 square feet. The total lot coverage proposed with the existing home and the 1,500 sq ft pool enclosure will be roughly 5,237 sq ft, or 21.6%. The maximum lot coverage permitted in the R-1 zone is 25%. The lot is square in shape with a notch in the southeast corner, with roughly 147 feet of frontage along Oak Street and 160 feet of frontage along W. 34th Place. The existing home is located facing Oak Street, with a 35'-0" front setback, a 40'-0" setback along W. 34th Place, a 58'-6" rear setback and an Board of Adjustment 2 Case No. WA-16-09/Martin 38'-0" setback to the southern side property line. The lot gently slopes from the southern property line to the north, with roughly 8 feet of fall. (Exhibit 3, ILC, Exhibit 4, Site Photos). The property owners are the original owners and intend to make this improvement in order to facilitate a healthy lifestyle, which includes swimming, year-round on their property. In addition to the pool enclosure, the applicants intend to do a large landscaping renovation. Vxhibit S, Renderings and conceptual site plan). The variances would result in a single family home with an oversized accessory structure that is constructed of metal. All other development standards for the R-1 zone district will be met. The applicants have not provided a final site plan for the proposed improvements with specific setbacks, but there is adequate room on the property to accommodate this structure within the development standards. The structure is proposed to be a total of roughly 13 feet tall, which is lower than the maximum permitted height for a major accessory structure of 15 feet. No other variances are being sought for the project. The 15 -day notification period for the public hearing is currently in progress. As of July 22, 2016 no objections have been received. III. VARIANCE CRITERIA In order to approve a variance, the Board of Adjustment must determine that the majority of the "criteria for review" listed in Section 26-115.C.4 of the City Code have been met. The applicant has provided their analysis of the application's compliance with the variance criteria (Exhibit 6, Letter of Request and Analysis of Criteria). Staff provides the following review and analysis of the variance criteria. First Request: Variance to the maximum size of'an accessory structure. 1. The property in question would not yield a reasonable return in use, service or income if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed by regulation for the district in which it is located. If the request were denied, the property would continue to yield a reasonable return in use. The property would continue to function as a single-family residence, regardless of the outcome of the variance request. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 2. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality. The variance is not likely to alter the character of the locality. The requested size variance will result in a property that is still within the maximum building coverage percentage. The requested size variance will result in the property staying in the same character as the surrounding area. The surrounding area predominately has large lots with building coverages close to the maximum building coverage percentage, with a few that exceed it. The nearest ten properties in the subdivision have an average building coverage percentage of 22.3%, per Jefferson County Assessor. The proposed new accessory building will not result in a lot that is out of scale with the neighborhood. Board of Adjustment Case No. WA-16-09/Martin Staff finds this criterion has been met. 3. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property with this application, which would not be possible without the variance. The applicants are proposing a substantial investment in the property through the construction of an in -ground pool and landscaping enhancements. The project is expected to add value to the property. While the applicant could construct a pool without a cover, the size variance will allow adequate deck space surrounding the pool to meet code requirements. Staff finds this criterion has been met. 4. The particular physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition of the specific property involved results in a particular and unique hardship (upon the owner) as distinguished from a mere inconvenience if the strict letter of the regulations were carried out. There is no particular physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition of the specific property that presents a unique hardship upon the applicant. Rather, the applicants desire the pool to be enclosed in order to have it available for year-round use. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 5. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. The hardship has been created by the applicant's desire to enclose a pool with a cover that exceeds the maximum accessory structure size in the R-1 zone district. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 6. The granting of the variance would not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located, by, among other things, substantially or permanently impairing the appropriate use or development of adjacent property, impairing the adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, substantially increasing the congestion in public streets or increasing the danger of fire or endangering the public safety, or substantially diminishing or impairing property values within the neighborhood. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare and would not be injurious to neighboring property or improvements. It would not hinder or impair the development of the adjacent properties. The adequate supply of air and light would not be compromised as a result of this request. The request would not increase the congestion in the streets. Nor would it cause an obstruction to motorists on the adjacent streets or impede the sight distance triangle. The request will not diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. Conversely, the proposed improvements will likely have a positive impact on the neighborhood by promoting investment in property. Board of Adjustment Case No. WA-16-09/Martin Staff finds this criterion has been met. 7. The unusual circumstances or conditions necessitating the variance request are present in the neighborhood and are not unique to the property. The R -I zoning and development standards are not unique to the property, rather it is the predominate zoning in the area. Staff finds that this criterion has been met. 8. Granting of the variance would result in a reasonable accommodation of a person with disabilities. Single family homes and their accessory buildings are not required to meet building codes pertaining to the accommodation of persons with disabilities. Staff finds this criterion is not applicable. 9. The application is in substantial compliance with the applicable standards set forth in the Architectural and Site Design Manual The Architectural and Site Design Manual does not apply to single and two family dwelling units. Staff finds this criterion is not applicable. Second Request: Variance to allow a metal accessory structure greater than 120 square feet. 1. The property in question would not yield a reasonable return in use, service or income if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed by regulation for the district in which it is located. If the request were denied, the property would continue to yield a reasonable return in use. The property would continue to function as a single-family residence, regardless of the outcome of the variance request. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 2. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality. The variance is not likely to alter the character of the locality. The requested building material variance will not result in an accessory structure of lesser quality than intended in the R-1 zone district. The intent of the regulation restricting metal accessory structures is to prohibit metal sheds, pole barns, and garages on residential property. Staff believes that the intent of the regulation did not contemplate this type of project. Staff finds this criterion has been met. Board gfAdjustment Case No. WA-16-09/Martin 3. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property with this application, which would not be possible without the variance. The applicants are proposing a substantial investment in the property through the construction of an in -ground pool and landscaping enhancements. The project is expected to add value to the property. While the applicant could construct a pool without a cover, in this case, the building material variance will allow the construction of a high quality project. Staff finds this criterion has been met. 4. The particular physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition of the specific property involved results in a particular and unique hardship (upon the owner) as distinguished from a mere inconvenience if the strict letter of the regulations were carried out. There is no particular physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition of the specific property that presents a unique hardship upon the applicant. Rather, the applicants desire the pool to be enclosed in order to have it available for year-round use. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 5. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. The hardship has been created by the applicant's desire to enclose a pool with a cover that is constructed of materials not permitted for an accessory structure in the R-1 zone district. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 6. The granting of the variance would not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located, by, among other things, substantially or permanently impairing the appropriate use or development of adjacent property, impairing the adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, substantially increasing the congestion in public streets or increasing the danger of fire or endangering the public safety, or substantially diminishing or impairing property values within the neighborhood. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare and would not be injurious to neighboring property or improvements. It would not hinder or impair the development of the adjacent properties. The adequate supply of air and light would not be compromised as a result of this request. The request would not increase the congestion in the streets. Nor would it cause an obstruction to motorists on the adjacent streets or impede the sight distance triangle. The request will not diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. Conversely, the proposed improvements will likely have a positive impact on the neighborhood by promoting investment in property. Staff finds this criterion has been met. Board of Adjustment 6 Case No. WA-16-09/Martin 7. The unusual circumstances or conditions necessitating the variance request are present in the neighborhood and are not unique to the property. The R-1 zoning and development standards are not unique to the property, rather it is the predominate zoning in the area. Staff finds that this criterion has been met. 8. Granting of the variance would result in a reasonable accommodation of a person with disabilities. Single family homes and their accessory buildings are not required to meet building codes pertaining to the accommodation of persons with disabilities. Staff finds this criterion is not applicable. 9. The application is in substantial compliance with the applicable standards set forth in the Architectural and Site Design Manual. The Architectural and Site Design Manual does not apply to single and two family dwelling units. Staff finds this criterion is not applicable. IV. STAFF CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Having found the application in compliance with the majority of the review criteria, staff recommends APPROVAL of two variances to permit an accessory structure greater than the maximum allowed size and constructed of metal. Staff recommends approval for the following reasons: 1. The proposed pool cover will appear incidental to the home, and significant property investment will occur as a result of approval of the variance. 2. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. 3. The alleged hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. 4. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare. 5. No objections were received regarding the variance request. With the following conditions: 1. The design and architecture of the proposed enclosure shall be consistent with representations depicted in the application materials, subject to staff review and approval through review of a building permit. 2. If any existing tree is removed or becomes damaged, diseased or dead, it shall be replaced with a minimum 2" caliper tree or 6 -foot tall evergreen tree. Attachments: A.

We are seeking a variance on behalf of our customers Mr. and Mrs. Martin at 3390 Oak St. Wheat Ridge CO 80033. We are proposing to do a large landscaping renovation with the Martin's which includes a built in swimming pool and hot tub, pool decking and patio space along with several other elements which would not require a Variance. The Martins being a mature retired couple use a pool regularly as part of their health regiment to remain active and mobile. They want to have a pool that they can both enjoy with grandchildren and stay healthy using it year round. This project would also substantially increase their property value which they ultimately intend to pass onto their children as they never intend to move again. The anticipated cost of this entire project could actually exceed half of their current property value. They have asked us to design and build a retractable pool enclosure structure in conjunction with the rest of their project so that in the summer they can enjoy the pool outside, and in the winter close it up and continue to be able to use it year-round. We run into two apparent issues to be in compliance with existing zoning standards with regard to the retractable enclosure. 1. Total allowable sq. ft being 1000 we are asking for approximately 1300sf. We want to have the area big enough to accommodate a pool and hot tub big enough to justify the investment and practical use of the amenity. 2. Building material: The only practical material that accomplishes both structural integrity, weather resistance, durability, lightweight, and the ability to be re -tractable is Aluminum (which would be anodized to a bronze or gray color to blend in with house) The Glazing is a 5/8" thick poly carbonate sheeting. I believe the spirit of the existing code which does not allow any "metal" building structures was largely intended to discourage un- attractive steel buildings having an out of place commercial and or flimsy tin shed look to spoil the pleasing residential environment. From an investment standpoint the ability to have year-round use of the pool creates a lot more intrinsic value to the home owner for the cost of the project effectively doubling its use. It also has value for the environment and energy savings as there is no need to cool the building in the summer, and on sunny days no need for heat in the winter and less energy to heat the pool and or hot tub as well even on non -sunny winter days. This is a unique case and situation, as you can see by the renderings and photo's provided it is a very attractive, functional safe and sturdy structure that meets snow load and building code requirements, we feel it would in no way be intrusive or out of context in this neighborhood. The existing yard is also completely surrounded by large mature tree's none of which would be affected or removed. The neighbor directly behind the Martins would be the only ones impacted by the view corridor and currently all they see are tree's and the Martins roof, not mountains or open view, they also have a pool too and may be interested in doing something similar as the Martin's. Thank you for your time and consideration we sincerely hope we can work with you to make this project work for everyone involved. Sincerely, Jeremiah Lord Designs by Sundown 303-435-2965 jlord@designsbysundown.com Board ofAdjustment 15 Case No. WA-16-09/Martin Variance Review Criteria Responses For: Martin Project 3390 Oak st. Wheat Ridge, CO 80033 1: The pools use would be limited to use only % of the year because of the climate here. Also there is a higher return on the investment because of the fact it could be used with much higher frequency. 2: We absolutely do not believe this pool enclosure structure, would in any way alter the character of the locality, feel out of place or out of character in this neighborhood. 3: The Martin's are planning to invest a substantial amount of money to such an extent that it could likely raise surrounding properties value. The total cost of the entire project including landscaping elements is nearly half the current value of the home. The pool enclosure piece which represents 1/3`d of the total cost of the project would not be possible without a variance given the current zoning standards. 4: There are no issues here as it relates to this project. S: No unique hardship has been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. 6: We believe there are no foreseeable detrimental issues like the ones stated here that would result from the granting of this variance. 7: There are other built in pools in this neighborhood that is not unique, while the request for variance is unique regarding a pool enclosure it seems more because no one has asked or attempted to do one like this but it is a logical addition to a pool area. 8: Granting this variance would result in a reasonable accommodation for Mr. & Mrs. Martin in terms of their ability to easily access and use the pool regularly year-round as a preventative therapy for maintaining mobility and overall health.

PROJECT N1 DAVID SCHNIEDER 09-19-00 MARTIN -PP I NA RE: Variance Request for 3390 Oak St. To whom it may concern at City of Wheat Ridge: Hello my name is Jeremiah Lord a Landscape Designer with Designs By Sundown. We are seeking a variance on behalf of our customers Mr. and Mrs. Martin at 3390 Oak St. Wheat Ridge CO 80033. We are proposing to do a large landscaping renovation with the Martin's which includes a built in swimming pool and hot tub, pool decking and patio space along with several other elements which would not require a Variance. The Martins being a mature retired couple use a pool regularly as part of their health regiment to remain active and mobile. They want to have a pool that they can both enjoy with grandchildren and stay healthy using it year round. This project would also substantially increase their property value which they ultimately intend to pass onto their children as they never intend to move again. The anticipated cost of this entire project could actually exceed half of their current property value. They have asked us to design and build a retractable pool enclosure structure in conjunction with the rest of their project so that in the summer they can enjoy the pool outside, and in the winter close it up and continue to be able to use it year-round. We run into two apparent issues to be in compliance with existing zoning standards with regard to the retractable enclosure. 1. Total allowable sq. ft being 1000 we are asking for approximately 1300sf. We want to have the area big enough to accommodate a pool and hot tub big enough to justify the investment and practical use of the amenity. 2. Building material: The only practical material that accomplishes both structural integrity, weather resistance, durability, lightweight, and the ability to be re -tractable is Aluminum (which would be anodized to a bronze or gray color to blend in with house) The Glazing is a 5/8" thick poly carbonate sheeting. I believe the spirit of the existing code which does not allow any "metal" building structures was largely intended to discourage un- attractive steel buildings having an out of place commercial and or flimsy tin shed look to spoil the pleasing residential environment. From an investment standpoint the ability to have year-round use of the pool creates a lot more intrinsic value to the home owner for the cost of the project effectively doubling its use. It also has value for the environment and energy savings as there is no need to cool the building in the summer, and on sunny days no need for heat in the winter and less energy to heat the pool and or hot tub as well even on non -sunny winter days. This is a unique case and situation, as you can see by the renderings and photo's provided it is a very attractive, functional safe and sturdy structure that meets snow load and building code requirements, we feel it would in no way be intrusive or out of context in this neighborhood. The existing yard is also completely surrounded by large mature tree's none of which would be affected or removed. The neighbor directly behind the Martins would be the only ones impacted by the view corridor and currently all they see are tree's and the Martins roof, not mountains or open view, they also have a pool too and may be interested in doing something similar as the Martin's.
