File Number: 22-278 3.Adopt a Resolution of the City of San Leandro City Council to Approve a Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 8592 to subdivide one 2.4-acre parcel into 18 single-family lots and three parcels located at 2824 Halcyon Drive. BACKGROUND APPLICANT'S SUPPORTING STATEMENT See attached Applicant Statement. RELATIONSHIP TO SURROUNDING AREA The subject property is a remnant parcel located on the north side of Halcyon Drive in the Washington Square neighborhood, situated between two established neighborhoods. The property has a split zoning where the western portion of the site is zoned Industrial Park (IP) and the eastern portion is zoned Residential Single-Family (RS). The 2.4-acre property is currently developed with two existing single-family residential buildings and two associated accessory structures, a private road that provides access to the buildings onsite, and six-foot pre-cast walls around portions of the site’s perimeter. The site is generally flat, with existing trees and ruderal grassland vegetation throughout the site. The project site is located in the middle of the block and is adjoined by existing single-family residences to the east and west. To the north is a portion of the San Leandro Business Park. The southern boundary of the project site borders Halcyon Drive, a major arterial thoroughfare, and additional single-family residences beyond. The subject property was previously under different ownership and unavailable at the time the adjacent residential subdivisions were developed. The adjacent connecting residential streets were previously designed and constructed to access and accommodate the future development of this property. DETAILS OF THE PROPOSAL The Planned Development project involves a Zoning Map Amendment, Site Plan Review, and Tentative Map to subdivide one parcel into 18 lots and three parcels for two private courts and one privately owned open space accessible to the public. The proposed zoning map amendment would rezone the parcel from a split zoning of IP Industrial Park/ RS Residential Single-Family to RS(PD) Residential Single-Family with a Planned Development Overlay District, bringing it into conformance with the current underlying Low-Medium Density Residential General Plan land use designation. The project involves the demolition of two existing residential dwellings and two accessory structures to enable the construction of 18 single-family residences with associated infrastructure, circulation and landscaping improvements. The project will create a new public street with an S-shaped layout that connects the existing Muscari Street to the northwest of the project and Elderberry Way to the southeast of the project. The project will also create two private courts that vehicles would drive into to access five single-family residences. The courts are located at the southwest and northeast of the project site. On the southeast corner of the project site would be a 4,877 square foot privately-owned and public accessible landscaped open space parcel. Page 2 City of San Leandro Printed on 4/27/2022
