The Bluff Stops...where?


I Bluff You Not


With the Vip-Co application in process, might this be a good opportunity to discuss permitting Wim Moo to re-build his house on Navajo Way with a more ergonomic design? His two-story box must get absolutely pummeled by the winds that whip over that bluff all winter long.
Having a house to the West of the Moo house, below them on the bluff, would likely provide a degree of shelter from the winds.
Even if Sir Wim declines to tear down and do over, the design of the Vipp-Co house as executed will have a very powerful impact on his wind and weather patterns, which should be of much more realistic concern than any view impact.
It also is apparent, from observing several photographs taken of the bluff beneath the Moo house and bisecting the proposed buildling site N-S, that the bluff has lost several feet of earth since the last measures were taken.
The Moo house looms over the precipice, seemingly ready to drop over the edge.
The reason you want plants to grow quickly on the bluff is because the greenery will hide evidence of recent earth wastage.
Build it up, mark it up, sell, and move on.
