BN:mlg Attachments cc: Planning Commission/City Council RESIDENTIAL/INSTITUTIONAL CONSENT CALENDAR ITE]~S AGENDA September 7, 1989 1. DR 12462 - FIRST FAMILY (Tom} Revised elevation. Committee Action: The Committee (Blakesley, Kroutil) reviewed the project but did not recommend approval due to the following concerns: 1. The massing of the entryway on elevation 2850C should be similar to elevation 2850A. 2. A brick element should be provided on both sides of the entryway. 3. The front elevation of elevation 3200C should be mere symmetrical. This can be accomplished by shifting the window to the side of the garage elevation to the center of the wall. 4. Extend the brick element around the side of elevation 3200C. 2. DR 13565 {PH. 5, g, & 10) - STANDARD PACIFIC (Bev) 1. Review of return walls. 2. Additional elements to Elevation 4A. 3.

The revised 3A elevation was approved with the additional use of shutters on the first story windows in front and on the right side. The revised 4A elevation was approved, although the CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA Page 2 brick chimney should not be painted, but constructed of a material similar in color to the siding. 3. TRACT 12895 - R.J. INVEST. (Bev} Change in roof tile material. Committee Action: The red roof tile was approved, but a construction detail of how the rolled tile would work should be provided for staff level review. 4. lltA~T 13566 - ROCKRE).O {Bey) Change in cap material of peri~ter wall.

September 7, 1989 MODIFICATION TO DESIGN REVIEW FOR TRACT 12659-2 -BLANTON The design review of a new building elevation and revised unit mix for Phase II of a previously approved tract map consisting of 135 single family lots on 67.69 acres of land in the Very Low Residential District (1-2 dwelling units per acre) of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located at the southwest corner of Etiwanda Avenue and 24th Street. APN: 225-111-38 and 39. Background: Tentative Tract 12659 was approved by the City of Rancho Cucamonga on November 13, 1985. Subsequent to City approval, the tract was divided into four (4) phases. Phase I is already under construction. The tract includes a centralized equestrian center for the keeping of horses, instead of the typical stable on each homeowner's lot. The City approved smaller lot sizes and the deletion of a local trail access for every lot in exchange for the equestrian center. This was permitted, since the project was approved under the Optional Development Standards. Staff Co~ents: Site Plan: 1. Due to the creation of the equestrian center within this tract, the average lot size is much smaller than is typical of lots within the Very Low Residential District (approximately 15,000 square feet). However, the house sizes are more consistent with this development district, ranging from 2,122 to 3,542 square feet. Due to these conditions, there are some areas of concern where the models proposed for lots may appear to be "forced" or out of scale. Some examples of this situation are: a) Model ~B on Lot 32. b) Model 5A on Lot 30. 2. Decrease the driveway width so as to reduce the amount of pavement as seen from the street. Architecture: 1. Provide additional wood siding on all elevations to aid in creating complete 360 degree articulation. 2. Provide additional articulation to accent elements such as, but not limited to, foundations, chimneys, columns, windows, etc., that is consistent with the amount of articulation on previously approved models within this tract. DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS T 12659-2 - BLANTON Page 2 Design Review Committee Action: Members Present: David Blakesley, Otto Kroutil Staff Planner: Steve Hayes The Con~nittee recommended approval of the project to the Planning Commission with the following conditions: 1. The amount of pavement should be reduced at driveway approaches and front yard setbacks wherever possible. 2. Additional wood siding should be continued along the side elevations of Plan 6 to provide more complete side elevation articulation. 3. Additional articulation should be added to the accent elements of Plan 6 such as, but not limited to, chimneys, columns and foundations. DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 6:30 - 7:00 Tom September 7, 1989 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE TRACT 14263 -MINNIS A residential subdivision and design review of 32 condominium u,.its on 3.35 acres of land in the Medium Residential District (8-14 dwelling units per acre) and Flood Control District, located on the west side of Carnelian Street at Vivero Street. APN: 207-022-54 and 64. Associated with this project is General Plan Amendment 89-02A and Development District Amendment 87-12. B ackg r ou nd: The original proposal on this project site was for a total of 42 condominium units. The proposal included a Development District Amendment (DDA 87-12) to change a portion of the project site from Flood Control to Medium Residential. The Development District Amendment was reviewed by the Planning Commission on March 8, 1989. A recommendation of denial was made based on the determination that a General Plan Amendment (GPA) would also be required. Since that time, the applicant has submitted GPA 89-02A and has reduced the proposal to 32 condominium units. Staff Conmnents: 1. Provide additional architectural treatment on the right and left elevations of both buildings to break up large blank building expanses. Architectural treatment may include windows, decorative tile, quatrefails, etc. 2. Remove glass block element from Elevation 2. 3. Provide additional landscaping between the recreation area and the entryway. The security wall around the pool should include wrought iron and a stucco finish wall. Design Review Coaaittee Action: Members Present: David Blakesley, Larry McNiel, Otto Kroutil Staff Planner: Tom Grahn The Committee reviewed the project and recommended approval subject to the following conditions: 1. Remove the glass block element and replace with standard windows- 2. Extend the pot shelf element on the right and left side elevations of Building Type 1. 3. A texturized paving treatment or concrete band should be provided along the front of al 1 garages to create a pedestrian path leading to the recreation area.
