<br />Planning Commission Meeting Draft Minutes Excerpt for meeting of April 12, 2007 <br /> <br />Page 2 of 10 <br /> <br />The plans call for 16 townhomes across the MacArthur Boulevard frontage, a "five-plex" <br />at the southerly end of the interior, and a duplex on Herma Court. Although the initial <br />proposal included a circular commercial space at the MacArthur/HermaIBroadmoor <br />comer, after a July 2006 Planning Commission Work Session on the subject property, the <br />developer revised the proposal to make it a residential-only. If the developer wants to <br />modify the PD at some future date to incorporate "flex" space, he would first have to <br />come back to the Planning Commission for review. <br /> <br />20 of the 23 units have two-car garages, some of which have tandem setups. Three units, <br />which are identified as the development's inclusionary housing units, have one-car <br />garages. There are six guest parking spaces within the confines of the development. <br /> <br />Architectural detailing reflects the craftsman style characteristic of the neighborhood, and <br />it has been revised since the Work Session to incorporate more differentiation into the <br />roof lines. Floor plans for the units include playrooms on the ground floor, second-floor <br />bedrooms (or studies that the Building Code classifies as bedrooms) and common space <br />including living, dining and kitchen; and a set-back third floor with two bedrooms and <br />two full baths. Units range from 1,151-2,042 square feet. <br /> <br />Landscaping and vegetation would help screen interior traffic, some of which will make a <br />right-turn-only exit onto Herma Court. The landscape plan incorporates flowering accent <br />trees and screening around the perimeter, as well as a private "passive" park with an <br />adjacent tot lot and greenery but not barbecue pits and other gathering places that might <br />create noise problems with neighbors on each side. Times of use in the park also will be <br />restricted in deference to concerns that neighbors have expressed. The proposed <br />development in this case calls for exceptions to the underlying zoning standards for floor <br />area ratio (FAR), setbacks, landscaping provisions, minimum parking requirements, and <br />fence height. <br />. FAR - The total cumulative FAR is approximately 75%, where the underlying <br />CC District standard is 50%. Typically, only about 22,000 of livable area would <br />be permitted on an acre (43,000-square-foot) lot. In this case, there is about <br />30,000 square feet of livable area. <br />. Setbacks -The duplex is set back 13 or more feet, whereas 20 feet is the typical <br />setback in RS Districts. Setbacks for the townhome units meet or exceed <br />standards except for the comer side at the northernmost edge, where there is a <br />zero setback proposed while the standard calls for a 10-foot comer setback. <br />. Landscaping - The 10-foot setback in the front of the property is only partially <br />landscaped, because the patio portion is not considered landscaping. <br />. Parking - Standards call for 58 spaces, whereas the project proposes 49 (2.5 per <br />unit required; 2.13 provided.) Parking standards also requires exceptions for 10 of <br />the development's 23 units - seven residences with tandem arrangements and <br />three with one-car garages. The project also is expected to add 10 spaces to the <br />street parking supply. <br />. Fence walls - 5-foot fence/walls in the front setbacks exceed the typical <br />maximum by 2 feet. <br /> <br />As for density, the portions of the properties designated in the General Plan as "low <br />residential" and "corridor mixed use" combined allow up to 25.3 units on the acre site. <br />
