File Number: 22-278 <br />square-foot second floor. Plan 3 is 2,318 square feet and consists of 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, <br />and a 2-car garage. Other features provided are a porch, den, great room, kitchen with dining <br />area and pantry and full bathroom on the 999 square-foot first floor and bedrooms, full bathrooms, <br />and laundry room on the 1,319 square-foot second floor. <br />Each of the residential structures would have its own driveway connected directly to a new public <br />street that connects Elderberry Way to Muscari Street or to the new southwestern court or new <br />northeastern court that both connect to the public street connecting Elderberry Way to Muscari <br />Street. Waste, recycling, and compost bins will be stored and screened behind the fence gate at <br />the side yard of each residence. <br />Parking and Circulation <br />Vehicular access to the site would be provided via a connection to the two adjacent existing <br />public streets, Muscari Street to the northwest and Elderberry Way to the southeast of the site. <br />Connecting the two existing streets will eliminate the dead-ends at Muscari Street and Elderberry <br />Way, necessary for code-compliant fire access per the Alameda County Fire Department (letter <br />attached). Two courts, one located at the southwestern corner and the other located at the <br />northeastern corner of the project site, would feed into the new public street connecting it to <br />Muscari Street and Elderberry Way. The project would include a total of 82 parking spaces on <br />site. Of the 82 spaces on site, there would be 36 garage spaces, 36 driveway spaces, and 10 <br />public on-street parking spaces. Pedestrian access would be available via sidewalks that would <br />be constructed along both sides of the one new public street connecting Muscari Street and <br />Elderberry Way. <br />Landscaping <br />The project would include a total landscaped area of 19,600 square feet, or approximately 19 <br />percent of the site. Landscaping would include front yards, planter strips, and the shared passive <br />use open space area located at the southeastern corner of the project site. This shared open <br />space area would also act as a drainage management area and contain underground storage <br />boxes which would be part of the larger drainage management and bioretention system occurring <br />on the project site. The landscaped and bioretention areas located throughout the project site. <br />Approximately 0.78 acre of the site is comprised of mixed ornamental woodland trees that would <br />be removed as part of the project (ficus, redwood, Mexican fam palm, Himalayan cedar, acacia, <br />lemon, southern magnolia, pine, tree of heaven, loquat, and willow). There are 18 new street trees <br />(London plane trees) proposed along the new public street as well as a variety of accent trees <br />along the perimeters of the southwestern and northeastern courts connecting to the new public <br />street that would connect Muscari Street and Elderberry Way, and in the front yards of proposed <br />residences. <br />On-Site Amenities <br />On the southeast corner of the project site would be a 4,877 square foot private landscaped open <br />space area for residents’ use. On the northern end of this open space area would be a communal <br />mailbox station for the project’s occupants. The public street connecting Muscari Street and <br />Elderberry Way provides 10 on-street parking spaces. <br />Page 4 City of San Leandro Printed on 4/27/2022
