DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 6:00 - 6:30 Dino April 18, 1985 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 84-23 PERRYMAN - The conversion of a 1,500 square foot single family residence into a private school with a 5,038 square foot addition on one (1) acre of land in the Low Residential District (2-4 du/ac), located at 9038 Base Line Road between Beryl and Garnet Streets - APN 202-231-30. Design Parameters: The important issues to be considered are parking, circulation, landscaping, and "use to lot" compatibility. Note that the proposed conversion of a residential structure must meet all code requirements for commercial development as follows: Site Plan: Day care facilities require one parking stall for each staff member, plus one for each five (5) children. The applicant has not given a definite indication of the maximum number of students and employees which would occupy the project; thus, it appears that the proposed number of parking stalls is not sufficient. In addition, the proposed second phase (addition) may require increased parking. Interior side property line building setback is twenty (20) feet adjacent to residential zoned property. The proposed site plan indicates the second phase addition with a side setback of five (5) feet, fifteen-feet less than the twenty-foot requirement. Landscaping: The average streetscape landscaping is forty-five (45) feet from the ultimate face of curb. Since the driveway and parking area encroach into the streetscape setback area, the proposed project does not average 45-feet of average landscaping in this area, as required. One tree per three (3) parking stalls and a five (5) foot landscape strip is required within the parking areas. The proposed parking areas do not include the above described landscaping requirements. Further, one tree per 30 linear feet of building (existing and proposed), is required adjacent to these buildings. The proposed landscape plan does not indicate this requirement. Little landscaping has been provided and the project does not meet the minimum landscape requirements. The proposed project will require a variance application procedure. Due to the constraints of a narrow lot and an existing structure, it is difficult to design the proposed school and meet all code requirements. The project site conditions restrict the type of use on the subject lot and limits its compatibility. It is determined that the proposed use is not suitable for the project site. Design Review Co~mnittee Action: Members Present: Staff Planner: Dino PutrinD DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 6:30 - 7:00 Curt April 18, 1985 DESIGN REVIEW FOR TENTATIVE TRACT 11853 - DALY A request to revise the building elevations for Tentative Tract 11853 consisting of 72 condominium units on 5.71 acres of land in the Medium Residential District (8-14 du/ac), located on the north side of 19th Street at Ramona Avenue - APN 202-171-42. Design Parameters: The subject tract was approved in 1981 and will expire this October. The purpose for the architectural revisions is to accommodate new floor plans. The approved elevations are contemporary in character with attractive, clean lines. The revisions basically include the addition of standard gable roofs on the left side and rear elevations; use of stucco versus horizontal siding; and expanded window treatment. The following are Staff comments: The proposed gable roofs interject a more traditional architectural element to the contemporary roof lines of the approved elevations. To provide a consistent desi9n character, further revisions to complete the traditional appearance or a reversion back to the original style is suggested. The use of horizontal sidin9 should be expanded or adjusted to a more attractive pattern, particularly on the left side elevation. Design Review Co~mnittee Action: Members Present: Staff Planner: Curt Johnson DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7:00 - 7:30 Nancy April 18, 1985 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 85-05 PAULEY - The development of a mini-warehouse facility consisting of 6 buildings and a caretaker's quarters totaling 125,730 square feet on 4.5 acres of land in the Minimum Impact Heavy Industrial District (Subarea 9) located at the northwest corner of Utica Avenue and 8th Street - APN 209-143-04. Design Parameters: The project site is vacant Vegetation consists of indigenous weeds and shrubs. the Haven Avenue Overlay District to the west side. and relatively level. The project site abutts Staff Comments Site Plan: The overall site plan complies with the intent of the ISP and provides for a transition of land use intensity from Haven Avenue to the Heavy Industrial. Landscaping: The landscaping plan could be enhanced through the following: a. Special landscape treatment along Utica Avenue. Expand the landscape openings to the west property boundary. Provide landscaping to the rail easement at the north property boundary and the developer should work with the SPRR in obtaining approval for such landscaping. Elevation: The west elevation of Building D should be enhanced by additional architectural treatment as it will be visible from Haven Avenue. Design Review Comnittee Action: Members Present: Staff Planner: Nancy Fong DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7:30 - 8:00 Howard April 18, 1985 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 85-07 - DAN FISHER - Construction of a auto-repair building with office totaling 3,167 square feet on .25 acres of land in the General Commercial District located north of Base Line, or the west side of Roberds Street - APN 202~092-009. Design Parameters: Presently, two buildings in poor condition occupy the subject site. The applicant has indicated that he intends to demolish both buildings and completely clear the subject site. The site presents various problems for commercial development due to its irregular configuration and lot size. Therefore, in order to meet commercial development guidelines, the applicant is proposing zero-lot line technique, abutting his proposal against and existing one-story building on the southwesterly property line. In addition, the applicant has filed a variance request in conjunction with this proposal for reduction of the front setback. Site Plan: Building placement upon this irregular shaped lot presents the optimal siting possible given access and parking considerations. The only recommended adjustment to site plan by Staff involves the redesign or re- location of the last parkin9 space adjacent to the rear property line to improve interior circulation. Architecture: The proposed design elevations are somewhat boxy and need relief such as a small wooden or metal mansard, wrapped around the top of the building. Landscaping Plan: Staff recommends the following changes to enhance the project design: Utilize small (2 foot) planter box along the east elevation of the building. 2. Provide 5 canopy type trees along the northwesterly and northeasterly property line. 3. Utilize flowering ground cover on each side of entrance.
