PUBLIC HEARING NO. 1
Inter-Corn
Honorable Chairman and Planning Agency Members
FROH:
Community Development Department
SUBJECT:
Use Permit 81-27
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the Planning Agency approve Use Permit 81-27,
by the adoption of Resolution No. 2000.
Applicant: Barnett Nowling
Location: 1162 Sycamore Avenue
BACKGROUND
A request to authorize the construction of an eight (8) condominium
unit project. The site is located in a R-3 zone, and condominium
projects are subject to a Use Permit in this zone.
The site is currently an unmaintained orange grove, with R-3 zoning
on the east and westsides, and R-1 homes to the south.
DISCUSSION
The project provides a lower level parking structure, constructed
approximately four (4) feet below grade. The overall height of the
project is approximately thirty three (33) feet.
Four units will be facing the existing single-family homes to the
south. Staff recommends that permanent architectural screening be
placed on the second level to protect the privacy of the single
family homes. If this screening is added, staff can recommend that
the Agency waive the 150 foot setback requirement for second story
units when adjacent to an R-1 district.
The open-space for the project is approximately 51%. The interior
courtyard will be landscaped, subject to a final landscape plan.
Staff recommends to the applicant that they develop a recreation
area in the rear yard area of the property.
Staff recommends approval of Use Permit 81-27, subject to the
conditions in the preliminary resolutions. Specific conditions
include:
Permanent architqctural screening shall be employed on any
window or balcony on the second level that is immediately
adjacent to a R-1 district.
