Zoning Code Amendments 4 Ocober 6, 2008 ~ ~~ <br />Proposal: <br />^ The Downtown San Leandro Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Strategy consisted of <br />a comprehensive Land use policy change affecting a 1/Z mile radius around the intersection <br />of Davis and East 14th Streets. The following items are being proposed based on issues <br />being raised during the process of reviewing development proposals in the new DA <br />zones. One significant issue is the discrepancy between the density of lots under 20,000 <br />square feet and lots greater than 20,000 square feet. For instance, in the DA-4 zone, a lot <br />greater than 20,000 square feet has a minimum density of 20 units per acre and a <br />maximum density of 60 units per acre. A lot that is less than 20,000 square feet shall not <br />exceed 24 units per acre. Because much of the property near the BART station is less than <br />20,000 square feet, the density, as written, will reduce the overall number of units that <br />could be built in the core of the BART transit area. This change applies to the following <br />sections: <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-630, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-636, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-638, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-640, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-642, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-644, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-646, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-686, Use Regulations <br />^ Article 6, Section 2-698, Use Regulations <br />^ Additionally, Article 6, Section 2-636 (Item 16) is also -being amended to clarify the <br />standard. This section specifies the amount of ground floor commercial space that is <br />allowed in the DA-1 zone. The standard currently reads, "Ground floor office limited to <br />15 percent of block frontage facing E. 14th Street." This has caused some confusion as it <br />appears to allow up to 15 percent of the street block area on each parcel. The proposed <br />language reads, "Ground floor office is limited to 15 percent of the entire block's street <br />frontage on East 14th Street, and the amount available to any particular parcel shall be the <br />remainder of the 15 percent not used by other parcels located on that block. The amount of <br />ground floor office available to a given parcel shall be determined by the Zoning <br />Enforcement Official upon request." <br />^ Staff is proposing that the lots less than 20,000 square feet be allowed to develop in the <br />higher density range of the underlying DA zone subject to the approval of a Conditional <br />Use Permit. Staff is also recommending that Article 6, Section 2-698 "Review of Plans" <br />be amended to include new design amenities for all projects in the DA zones. A <br />Conditional Use Permit for a smaller lot would be required to meet or exceed this <br />standard with an exceptional design required to get the additional density. These new <br />criteria include amenities such as tenant activity areas (joint eating areas, cooking areas, <br />play areas, screening rooms, etc), use of solar energy in the building design, larger <br />common areas, etc. <br />
