DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS
7.40 p m Alan Warren May 18, 2004
HILLSIDE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2003-00917 - BALENO RESIDENCE - A request to
construct a 3,925 square foot single-family home, located at 8062 Camino Predera within the Low
Residential Distnct (2-4 dwelling units per acre) - APN 0207-641-11
Design Parameters The site is located on the north side of Camino Predera Street, facing south on
Red Hill The front third of the lot has a 50 percent (2 1) down slope grade to the roadway and the
remaining slope is around 15 percent (6.7 1) to the rear The lot is m a row of five contiguous lots on
the north side of the street that are vacant and have similar features With the steep north-south
down slope, the visual mass/height reduction of the house as viewed from Camino Predera Street
will bean important aspect of conformity with the Hillside Design Standards
Staff Comments The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee
discussion.
Major Issues The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion
regarding this project
1 A significant feature of the plot plan is the "switch-back" dnveway configuration This
alignment provides an answer for vehicular access without unduly steep grades or grading
cuts. This design is to be accomplished with multiple stepped retaining walls along the front
yard area Staff believes this dnveway design is in keeprng with the hillside policies
2 The house is a three-story structure with stuck-under garage that is cut into the natural slope.
This cut is as much as 9 feet and, therefore, the protect must be reviewed by the Planning
Commission The two stories above fit within the 30-foot hillside building envelop except for
the chimneys. The east elevation exhibits a total building height of 38 feet above the cut
dnveway grade into the garage Much of the elevation mass of the top floor is taken up with
hip roofs with dormers and stepped back gabled walls The straight-up multiple-storywalls are
view only from the garage side and the rear yard Staff, therefore, believes the house does
satisfy the hillside policies by exhibiting single-story elements and hipped roof-lines toward the
down slopes
3 In order to provide the required 15 feet of level back yard area, the grading plan includes a cut
into the rear slope at an increased grade of around 40 percent Staff believes this feature can
be acceptable as long as the slope is heavily planted and provided with extensive erosion
controlling dewces (terrace drams, lute mesh, etc )
Secondary Issues Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the
Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues
1 A Conceptual Landscape Plan should be provided for staff review pnorto review of the protect
by the Planning Commission The plan should provide a high degree of erosion control by use
of appropnate plant matenals to bind the sod
2 The Site Plan indicates that two trees on the rear of the site are to be saved in place The
Landscape Plan should include any specific preservation techniques (retaining wall planters,
etc) that will be used towards this end
~~~
DRC ACTION AGENDA
DRC2003-00917 - BALENO RESIDENCE
. May 18, 2004
Page 2
Policv Issues The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be
incorporated into the protect design without discussion
1 Grade land and landscape in workable increments to avoid exposing vast expanses of bared
earth at any given time to minimize sod erosion
2 In hillside areas, development is to be designed to preserve open spaces, protect natural
features, and offer wews to residents
3 Round off and contour all graded slopes to blend with the existing terrain, and present a more
natural appearance
4 Establish proper soil management techniques to reduce the adverse effects (i e., erosion) of
grading
5 Minimize disruption of existing natural features, such as trees and other significant vegetation,
natural ground forms, rock outcroppings, water, and views
6 Coordinate extenor building design on all elevations from budding to building to achieve the
same level of design quality
7 Use native rock for fieldstone Other forms of stone may be manufactured products
S Select plant materials for their suitability to the environment and compatibility with Xenscape
pnnaples (i a ,water conservation) Include existing mature trees worthy of preservation in the
landscape concept
9 Select fast growing vegetative ground covers for fill/cut slope areas to retard sod erosion
10. Significant landscaping is regwred for downslope elevations Slopes that regwred
landscaping shall be planted with informal clusters of trees and shrubs to soften and vary the
slope plane Jute netting is regwred.
Staff Recommendation• Staff recommends approval of the pro/ectwith the above listed conditions
Desiun Review Committee Action
Members Present Fong, McPhail, Stewart
Staff Planner Alan Warren
The Committee recommended approval of the application subject to the above listed conditions and
that a complete Conceptual Landscape Plan be submitted for Committee review pnor to being
reviewed by the Planning Commission

DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS
7 20 p m Alan Warren October 5, 2004
HILLSIDE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2003-00917 - BALENO RESIDENCE - A request to
construct a 3,925 square foot single-family home within the Low Residential District (2-4 dwelling
units per acre), located at 8062 Camino Predera - APN 0207-641-11
Background The protect was approved by the Design Review Committee (DRC) on May 18, 2004
Subsequently, significant issues of the hillside design along Camino Predera were brought to light
during the appeal of DRC2003-00961 Also, after Committee review, the applicant noted that the
proposed house was "sited" on the wrong lot Because of these issues, staff believes it is
appropnate for the Committee to revisit the subtect protect pnor to being forwarded to the Planning
Commission
The design has not changed significantly since the previous review. Refer to the attached DRC
Comments of May 18, 2004, for staff analysis
The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion regarding the
modified plan and issues
Major Issues• The following broad design issues wdl be the focus of Committee discussion
regarding this protect
1 Dunng the appeal of DRC2003-00961, the City Counal felt that this unique neighborhood
warranted more view consideration than the minimum/maximum hillside standards currently
provide for. This house is located on the uphill side of Camino Predera rather that the south
side of the DRC2003-00961 proposal Therefore, this proposal does not appearto cause view
concerns of the appealed protect.
2. Because the grades on the north side of the road are rather uniform, the Grading Plan has not
changed significantly from the previous submittal The revised Grading Plan was approved by
the Grading Review Committee on September 13, 2004 Staff notes, however, that the level
area of the rear yard has been reduced and the minimum 15-foot level grade has not been
provided adjacent to the house Staff recommends that the minimum level area be provided
by redesign of the grades or with low retaining walls along the rear slope
Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the protect with the above listed conditions
in addition to the conditions of the May 18, 2004, DRC approval
Design Review Committee Action:
Members Present Fletcher, Fong, McPhail
Staff Planner Alan Warren
The Committee recommended approval of the application to the Planning Commission with the staff
recommended conditions
