A-98-9; PD-98-3 Appeal - 6 - May 13, 1999 ■ Courtyard homes are generally proposed to the west of Chapman Road, and include six duet units and four townhouse units for low and moderate -income households. ■ The developer is presently in negotiations with the adjacent shopping center owner regarding the purchase of a small portion of the parking lot to square off the development. The plan shows how this could be incorporated into the development to provide an additional 4 courtyard homes. ■ A single park will be provided within the project rather than two smaller parks. ■ The number of units has been reduced to 62. This is a reduction of 8 units from the plan that was considered by the Commission (Sheet A2). If the adjacent shopping center parking area is acquired, the number of units will increase by 4 units to a total of 66 units. ■ Under the revised plan, the parking ratio increases from 3.6 spaces unit to 3.7 spaces per unit. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council provide policy direction on the proposed rezoning of the property to an RS (PD) residential designation and, if the rezoning is supported, refer the revised development plan back to the Planning Commission for its consideration. This would also allow staff to fully review the proposal and prepare revised conditions of approval. Staff also recommends that the City Council review the revised development plan and indicate if they support the plan in concept, with direction on suggested revisions as deemed appropriate. Conceptual approval would indicate support for: 1) development of the property with single- family dwellings (except for required affordable units) with a density of approximately 10 dwelling units per acre and not exceeding 62 units (66 with the adjacent shopping center parking lot portion); and 2) lot sizes averaging 3,000 to 3,500 square feet for the courtyard lots (including common driveways), and lot sizes ranging from approximately 3,500 to 4,000 square feet for the single-family lots. The developer is in agreement with sending the revised plan back to the Planning Commission for a public hearing and recommendation.
