TENTATIVE TRACT MAP, DESIGN REVIEW AND MINOR EXCEPTION – ARROW 6-LOT
SUBDIVISION - A request to subdivide an existing 0.83-acre lot into six numbered lots, one
lettered lot, and one dedication lot, and to construct six new single-family dwelling units within
the Suburban Neighborhood Low General Plan designation and Medium Residential (M) Zone,
located at the southeast corner of Arrow Route and Madrone Avenue - APN: 0207-262-05.
This item is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
under CEQA Section 15332 (SUBTT20616, Design Review DRC2023-00111).
Staff presented the item to the Design Review Committee. The DRC liked the project design overall and
asked for clarification on a few items. Committee member Boling asked for clarification on the washer and
dryer location for one of the unit types. Boling also requested that the development standards compliance
table include the lot width and depth information. Committee member Daniels asked for clarification on the
intent of placing the two-story units at the street fronting lots instead of the single-story units. Staff clarified
that the two-story design is in keeping with the surrounding development patterns and the placement of the
units intends to transition better between the adjacent single-story properties.
Regarding fencing and walls, both committee members agreed that there should be a condition of approval
to prohibit new walls or fencing from blocking the viewshed corridor along Arrow Route. They both also
agreed that the project include a condition of approval requiring maintenance of the private shared driveway.
The Design Review Committee voted to move the project forward to the Planning Commission with a
recommendation of approval.
The Committee took the following action:
Recommend approval to PC. 2-0 Vote.
E. Adjournment
