DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 96-27 - MASTERCRAFT HOMES - A review of the detailed Site Plan
and building elevations for Phase 1 of Tract 14380, consisting of 25 single family lots in the Low
Residential designation (2-4 dwelling units per acre) of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan, located on

Project History:
This project was previously reviewed by the Design Review Committee on three separate occasions and
approved by the Planning Commission on January 22, 1997. At the initial Design Review Committee
meeting, the applicant was directed to revise the elevations by incorporating additional design elements
(e.g., shutters, exposed rafter tails, break up roof lines, etc.) and to provide additional siding on the side
and rear elevations when siding is used as a significant element on the front elevation. The applicant
revised their elevations to incorporate additional design features, but did not significantly revise the use
of siding. At the following Committee meetings the applicant was directed to revise their use of siding
based upon previous comments, but prior to the Planning Commission meeting the use of siding was
eliminated from the selected elevations. Based upon previous direction by the Committee, staff
included a condition of approval to provide additional siding on selected elevations. This condition
requires the Committee's review and approval prior to issuance of building permits. The condition was
not appealed.
The elevations have not been revised since the project was reviewed by the Planning Commission. The
applicant will be prepared to discuss their project to justify how the elevations were revised through the
design process and to demonstrate how their project meets City policy.
Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee
discussion.
Maior Issues: The staff report for the January 22, 1997, Planning Commission meeting identified that
the use of siding should be included on the front, side, and rear elevations of the following plans so that
siding appears as a primary architectural feature. The following elevations were recommended for
revision:
Plan 1 "Ranch"
Plan 2 "Country"
Plan 3 "Ranch"
Plan 4 'Ranch"
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends that additional siding be provided per the condition of approval.
