DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 6:00 - 6:30 Brett July 20, lg8g ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE TRACT 13298 LEWIS HOMES - A residential subdivision and design review of 118 condominium units on 8.05 acres of land in the Medium Density Residential District of the Terra Vista Planned Community located on the southwest corner of Mountain View Drive and Milliken Avenue - APN: 1077-091-36. Back9 r ou nd: Lewis Homes proposes to utilize the same product type which has already been approved for use within Tracts 13662, 13664, and 13351. During review of those projects, the Committee expressed its concern with continued use of this product type. This project is located just 600 feet south of Tract 13351 which is the same product type. Staff Coments: 1. The applicant should develop a new product type per staff's and the Committee's previous direction. If the Committee feels the continued use of t~his product is acceptable, the following items should be addressed: 1. Buildings 3 and 6 should be replotted to avoid the extensive "double-paved" access drives in front Of these buildings. 2. Buildings siding onto the greenway corridor should be moved further away from this open space area. 3. The slope between Milliken Avenue and Building 10 should be eliminated to avoid a very high (acoustical barrier) wall. 4. The access drives surrounding the 4-space parking island and trash enclosure should be redesigned to reduce the expansive paved area. 5. Special paving should be used at the entry off of Mountain View Drive. Design Review Committee Action: Members Present: Larry McNiel, David Blakesley, Beverly Nissen Staff Planner: Brett Horner The Committee did not approve the project as proposed. The applicant was directed to substantial ly revise the product type and architecture. The substantially revised units should reflect a new design scheme and should provide for more open space and reduce the expansive, double paved areas on the old plan. Since the site plan will be substantially altered due to access and street configuration changes, the Committee did not fully conment on the site plan. The revised plans should be reviewed again as a full item when ready. DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 6:30 - 7:00 Steve R. July 20, 1989 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE TRACT 14121 - WILLIAM LYON CO.

The applicant is only proposing to provide graded pads for single family residences. A product type has not been finalized yet. Staff Comments: 1. Staff strongly recommends that the layout of the tract be redesigned in order to eliminate the double frontage lots. Additionally, the City should not have to maintain the rear slopes of these interior lots. Oesign Review Comeittee Action: Members Present: Larry McNiel, David Blakesley, Beverly Nissen Staff Planner: Steve Ross The Committee voted to forward the issue to the Planning Commission with neither a recommendation for approval or denial. As an option to the original layout, the applicant proposed to reverse the layout of the interior lots by placing the slopes on the uphill side.
