6. Increase rear yards for the 3 homes on the south side of the site (next to Garden Terrace) We are willing to move units 2 Yz feet further away from Garden Terrace to create more separation. All plans and massing studies for presentation will reflect new set back. 7. Opaque windows on upper floors or rear elevation We propose to install opaque type glass on 2nd and 3rd floor rear windows of proposed project facing Garden Terrace, providing that glass will meet lighting and ventilation requirements of building code. We will work with the building department on this issue. If opaque glass does not meet code, as an alternative, Langon Homes is willing to have all new blinds installed for 9 owners of units at Garden Terrace on the windows facing our proposed project. 8. Relocate 2 guest parking spaces We are unable to relocate parking from the rear of the property to in between units as proposed. This would create a mass of concrete by eliminating 4 proposed street trees and landscaping and also this configuration allows glare from headlights into lower windows when guest parking is used. There would be 14' between buildings with a 9' - 10' wide parking spot with 6" curb on either side from wall to parking on both sides ~ too tight and not practical. 9. Garden Terrace window placement We are having the Architect confirm the location and will submit revised plan if not correct. 10. Privacy issue brought UP at the meeting. but not addressed in your minutes. We will plant trees along rear yards facing Garden Terrace to help mitigate privacy issues working with Garden Terrace HOA for placement and species oftrees.
