Blend roof, Low Gloss White gutters and downspouts, Dover White stucco and garage door,
<br />Felted Wood trims, and Forestwood front door. The first Craftsman design includes a Pewter
<br />Bronze Blend roof, bronze gutters and downspouts, Monticello Old Country Ledge stone finish,
<br />Caramel mortar stone, Artisan Tan stucco and garage door, Status Bronze trims, Portobello gable
<br />boards and battens, and garage door trim, and Shade-Gown front door. The second Craftsman
<br />design includes a Flintridge Gray roof, Royal Brown gutters and downspouts, Monarch Old
<br />Country Ledge manufactured stone, Khaki mortar stone, Stone Lion stucco and garage door,
<br />French Roast trims, Tree Branch gable boards and battens, and garage door trim, and Van Dyke

<br />
<br />The residential development has a wall and fence plan which include a variety of fence designs
<br />and colors that include wood fence, wood fence with lattice and wood gate with lattice. The fence
<br />heights comply with the zoning code. The fence height and design combined with the residential
<br />building setbacks and landscaping encourage pedestrian use of the sidewalk and design
<br />compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood. Portions of the existing precast wall that
<br />currently separate the project from the San Leandro Business Park, Halcyon Drive, and adjacent
<br />residential homes would remain.
<br />
<br />Floor Plan
<br />The residential structures would follow three main floor plans (Plans 1, 2, and 3). Each of the
<br />plans include a different variation. Plan 1 is 1,678 square feet and consists of 4 bedrooms, 2.5
<br />bathrooms, a 2-car garage. Other features provided are a porch, foyer, great room, kitchen with
<br />dining area and pantry, and a half bathroom on the 641 square-foot first floor and bedrooms, full
<br />bathrooms, and laundry room on the 1,037 square-foot second floor. Plan 2 is 2,065 square feet
<br />and consists of 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage. Other features provided are a
<br />covered entry, great room, kitchen with dining area, full bathroom, and bedroom on the 942
<br />square-foot first floor and bedrooms, full bathrooms, laundry room, and loft on the 1,123 square-
<br />foot second floor. Plan 3 is 2,318 square feet and consists of 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a 2-
<br />car garage. Other features provided are a porch, den, great room, kitchen with dining area and
<br />pantry and full bathroom on the 999 square-foot first floor and bedrooms, full bathrooms, and
<br />laundry room on the 1,319 square-foot second floor.
<br />
<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 />
<br />Parking and Circulation
<br />Vehicular access to the site would be provided via one new public street through the project site.
<br />The new public street would run through the project site and connect two existing streets, Muscari
<br />Street to the northwest and Elderberry Way to the southeast of the site. Connecting the two
<br />existing streets would eliminate the dead ends at Muscari Street and Elderberry Way which is
<br />critical for fire access per the Alameda County Fire Department Letter dated 3/23/2021 regarding
<br />fire access attached to the Staff Report. Two courts, one located at the southwestern corner and
<br />the other located at the northeastern corner of the project site, would feed into the new public
<br />street connecting it to Muscari Street and Elderberry Way. The project would include a total of 82
<br />parking spaces on site. Of the 82 spaces on site, there would be 36 garage spaces, 36 driveway
<br />spaces, and 10 on-site street parking spaces. Pedestrian access would be available via sidewalks
<br />that would be constructed along both sides of the one new public street connecting Muscari Street
<br />and Elderberry Way.
