Site Plan Review Findings 1. Site plan elements (such as but not limited to: building placement, yard setbacks, size and location of landscape areas, parking facilities and placement of service areas) are in compliance with the minimum requirements of this Code, and are arranged as to achieve the intent of such requirements by providing a harmonious and orderly development that is compatible with its surroundings. Parking, loading, storage and service areas are appropriately screened by building placement, orientation walls and/or landscaping. The proposed two-story single-family residential homes would be harmonious and compatible within the existing residential context of the immediate area. The site planning and architectural design for the development accommodates vehicle parking by providing two car garages with two car driveways. The proposed development complies with the intent of the RS Residential Single-Family zoning district requirements. The development will comply with the following zoning requirements: • Lot Area is 2.42 acres. • Average Lot Size is 3968 SF, which is within the acceptable range allowable for approval through a PD. • Max Plan Height is 28 feet and 10 inches, below the maximum height of 30’ for the RS zoning district. • Average Lot Coverage is 35%, below the maximum coverage of 50% allowed in the RS zoning district. • Average FAR is 38%, below the maximum FAR of 50% in the RS zoning district. • Density is 7.5 units per acre, within the 7 to 11 units per acre maximum for the Low-Medium Density Residential land use designation. 2. The building has adequate articulation, with appropriate window placement, use of detailing, and/or changes in building planes to provide visual interest. The exterior materials, finishes, detailing, and colors are compatible with those of surrounding structures. The proposed two-story plans appropriately provide varying wall planes and roof lines, using multiple colors, materials, and finishes. The building elevations propose different arrangements of similar and complementary colors and materials, including horizontal lap siding, stucco, metal garage doors, and concrete tile roof. The articulation and design satisfy the Planned Development criteria and enhances the streetscape of the existing neighborhood. With the architectural and design elements provided, the overall design of the project is compatible with the existing surrounding neighborhood.
