	2. SHEET 4.0 STATES THAT THE ELECTRICAL LOAD
	CALCULATION WAS PROVIDED UNDER PERMIT #17030423. IN
	RESEARCHING THIS PERMIT, I FOUND THE LOAD CALCULATIOIN
	TO BE INCOMPLETE, WITH NO LOAD LISTED FOR HOUSE PANEL.
	ADDITIONALLY, THE ADDITION OF TANKLESS WATER HEATERS IN
	EACH UNIT WILL INCREASE THE LOAD. THEREFORE, PROVIDE
	COMPLETE LOAD CALCULATION FOR BUILDING WITH ALL LOADS
