How We Helped Kristi from St. Louis
Secure Her Generator Site Plan

Kristi, a new residential client from St. Louis, Missouri, needed a standby generator site plan for a local permit application.

She planned to install a Generac natural-gas fueled generator, with the exhaust positioned 10 feet from operable openings, and required a clear drawing that would show the exact placement of this new structure on her property.

Order:

Kristi chose our Simple Package Site Plan with a 12-hour turnaround and requested delivery in PDF format with a custom paper size of 8.5″ x 11″.

She also provided a hand-drawn sketch with written instructions, which helped our designers understand the desired generator location and safety distances.

The project focused on adding a new accessory structure while maintaining accurate property details.

OUR SOLUTION:

Using Kristi’s sketch and property data, our CAD designers prepared a non-certified site plan accepted by most townships, with no site visit required, allowing faster preparation and lower overall costs.

Although she selected a 12-hour delivery window, we finalized the complete plan in just 7 hours.

The final drawing clearly showed the generator placement and exhaust distance, making it easy for reviewers to verify compliance.

Kristi’s  Simple Site Plan drawing incuded all necessary information like:

  • Property Lines
  • Primary Structure
  • North Arrow
  • Parcel ID
  • Lot dimensions
  • Scale, Roofline
  • Measurements Between Major Features

REVISIONS

No revisions were needed.

The first draft fully met Kristi’s expectations and permit requirements.

SUMMARY

Kristi’s project demonstrates how even a simple package site plan can effectively support technical permit needs.

The clear generator positioning and fast turnaround were the strongest advantages of this collaboration.

Accurate drafting, responsive communication, and a well-interpreted sketch helped ensure a smooth and confident submission process.
