 How Long is the Perfect Rod?

A rod should not be under twelve feet in length, and I would rather have it six inches over, or so made with duplicate top and third joints as to make it either twelve or twelve feet six, though my longest rod is only twelve feet and two inches long.
Such a rod is about eleven feet long, and is made of split bamboo, or a combination of ash and lancewood, and should weigh from seven to nine ounces.

The Planning Commission’s proposed language required that the only portion of a proposed new structure that is less than sixteen feet in height that would be analyzed for view impairment in connection with a height variation permit is the portion directly under the structure that is proposed to exceed sixteen feet in height.
At this time, Staff believes that the two-story trigger for structures that are less than sixteen feet in height is confusing and no longer necessary because of the establishment of the maximum heights based on existing and finished grades.
The front and side setback for those portions of structures over sixteen feet in height shall be a minimum of twenty –five feet in all residential zoned districts.", as shown in the amended Table 02-A attached hereto as Exhibit ‘B’.
