Steve Hayes October 31, 1995 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE TRACT 15707 - RITTENHO SE- The proposed development of a 5 unit detached condominium project on 1.0 acres of land in the Medium Residential Development District(8-14 dwelling units per acre), located on the north side of Base Line Road, west of Alta Cuesta Drive - APN: 202-025-01. Related Files: Variance 95-05, Tentative Tract 14208, Variance 94-03. Background: This project was reviewed by the Design Review Committee on October 17, 1995. The Committee (Melcher, Lumpp, Fong) recommended that the Site Plan be revised to be consistent with the conceptually approved Site Plan for the related subdivision(i.e. location of on-site drive aisles and the minimum area required for the common open space element) and that the units on the new Site Plan be replotted to provide a more open appearing streetscape at the end of the cul-de-sac and better house-to- house orientations between adjacent residences. A copy of the October 17, 1995 Design Review Committee Action Comments are attached for your convenience. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. As of the writing of these comments, revised plans had not yet been submitted for staff review. Therefore, staff will provide an oral presentation along with the revised Site Plan at the meeting for Committee consideration. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Design Review Committee consider the revisions presented by the applicant. If the Committee finds the revisions acceptable, then a recommendation of approval to the Planning Commission would be appropriate. However, if the Committee feels that further revisions are necessary, then the Committee should recommend denial of the project to the Planning Commission since a public hearing is already set for November 8, 1995. Design Review Committee Action: Members Present: John Melcher, Heinz Lumpp,Nancy Fong Staff Planner: Steve Hayes The Design Review Committee recommended approval of the project to the Planning Commission subject to the following conditions: 1. Eliminate the lot line separating this subdivision from the westerly adjacent Tract (TR 14208) to move Unit 1 closer to the west, which would give a more open feeling to the entire cul-de-sac. 2. The Committee recommended approval of the accent material changes as proposed by the applicant.
