File #:17-730,Version:1 <br />Site Plan Review <br />Per Z.C.S. 2-698 D., projects subject to Site Plan Review are required to include amenities and meet <br />design criteria that enhance the quality of residents’ living or the appearance of the project. Projects <br />are required to include at least seven (7) listed amenities. Amenities provided to support this project <br />include the following: <br />1) Common areas. The plan includes a 5,500 square foot outdoor courtyard for the residents’ use <br />in the southeast quadrant of the site plan. <br />2) Tenant activity area. The plan includes a computer room on the ground floor and community <br />room on the second floor for residents. <br />3) Use of three or more colors. There will be at least four colors. There will be two light color <br />grays. One very light gray for the fiber cement panels and a slightly darker gray color for the <br />stucco. There will be beige-tan for the fiber cement lap siding and the composite wood panels. <br />There will be a reddish-brown for some of the stucco. And there will be a very dark gray for <br />some of the fiber cement panels, trim, stucco and metal awnings (see Exhibit Q - Color and <br />Materials Board). <br />4) Use of three or more materials on the façade. As stated above, there will be five prominent <br />materials: Fiber cement panels, fiber cement lap siding, composite wood siding, stucco <br />exterior walls; and metal awnings. In addition, the two units’ stoops facing San Leandro <br />Boulevard would have metal rails and metal mesh. <br />5) Practical usable furniture in common areas. Exhibits U and V, Landscape Plan for the Podium <br />and Site Furnishings, respectively, shows the tables and chairs for the courtyard. <br />6) Bicycle lockers. Secured bicycle parking will be provided in the ground floor level between the <br />lobby and the parking garage. There would be 21 bicycle spaces for the 62 units. <br />7) Bay windows. Although there are not bay windows specifically, the articulated elevations with <br />the projecting and recessed wall planes for the street facing elevations apply the concept of <br />aesthetics and articulation that bay windows would provide. <br />Other positive features that contribute to the quality of the project include: <br />·The exterior architecture of the building is well articulated so that it is not massive in <br />appearance with the use of colors, varying panes, rooflines, placement of vertical series of <br />windows, awnings, lighting sconces, and address signing along the Parrott Street elevation. <br />·Two units along San Leandro Boulevard have been placed at street level with stoops and <br />porches connected to the sidewalk. <br />The vehicle driveway and vehicle parking are de-emphasized in the design. <br />·There will be an on-site property management office and services office for the residents. <br />City of San Leandro Printed on 3/8/2018Page 6 of 10 <br />powered by Legistar™31
