Jof approval:
Recommended that the project be revised
Committee Review as follows:
Did not recommend approval as follows:
subject to the following conditions
for additional
The proposed new elevation has too dominant a horizontal roof
line, as well as the staircase being too dominant a feature to
the elevation. The developer should provide more variations to
the roof line and architectural treatment to the elevations
including side elevations.
The design of the landscaping should incorporate mitigation
measures to deflect the direction of prevailing winds.
Revised elevations could be reviewed under consent calendar for
the next available Design Review meeting.
ADDITIONAL STAFF COMMENTS FOR DR 85-17/TT 13131
BACKGROUND: This project was reviewed by the Committee at the July 3rd
meeting. Copies of the previous comments and action have been attached for
your review. Robertson Homes has significantly modified the site plan and
redesigned the elevations.
STAFF CO~ENTS:
Site Plan
The revised site plan retained closely the same design as the previous site
plan. The common open space has dropped slightly from 57% to 53%. {Current
code requires 35%.) However, the developer has added more recreational
amenities such as 2 swimming pools, 1 tennis court, and a 2,600 sq. ft.
recreation building. {The previous site plan and the new one have been
attached for your comparison.)
Elevation
The previous building types are 2-story stacked units, arranged into 8-plex
configurations where each unit has an individual private entrance. The
previous elevations have a variety of architectural treatments and different
roof heights that create interest. The proposed new building types are 2-
story stacked units lined up into 8- and 12-plex configurations. The proposed
new elevations are minimal and do not provide for variation in roof line,
building planes and architectural treatments. The following improvements are
suggested:
1. Provide variation in roof height to break up the roof mass and
building mass.
2. Provide more architectural treatment and variation in building
planes to the side elevations.
Copies of the previous elevations and the new elevations have been attached
for your review.
Carports
The new developer proposes the same carport design as the previous project.
Colored plans will be provided at the meeting.
Concerns of Surrounding Neighborhood
Staff has received a couple of calls from the residents of the surrounding
area who are concerned with the density and the increased traffic. Staff has
requested that the developer conduct a neighborhood meeting prior to
scheduling for Planning Commission consideration.

Recommended approval.
Recommended approval subject to the following conditions
of approval:
Recommended that the project be revised for additional
Committee Review as follows:
Did not recommend approval as follows:
Revisions should be incorporated into the equestrian area (Lot
A) as follows:
- Trailer parking spaces should be designed as pull-
through.
- Some of the trailer spaces should be large enough to
accommodate 4-horse trailers.
Gates on the central arena should be provided on the
east and west ends, as opposed to the north and south
sides.
- Bleachers should be made available for use.
Utilities, pad, etc., should be made available to
accommodate future installation of an announcer's
booth.
- Ramps on manure pits should be more gradual, and a
landing should be provided at the top.
Manure pits should be located on inside of loop road
further away from the houses.
Horse washing areas require a cement pad, and the
spigot is to be located outside of railing.
Hitching posts should be positioned adjacent to both
ends of all tack rooms.
Horse watering troughs should be provided.
- Feeders and water basins on individual horse stalls
should be positioned on outside of stall fencing.
5-rail high fencing should be used on horse stalls.
- Metal tack rooms are not very durable; consider
alternative types of construction.
The equestrian easement on the west side of Lot 129
should be extended westerly along the south side of Lot
128 to align the trail provided along the east side of
Lot 92.
A final comprehensive design of the equestrian area
including but not necessarily limited to a standard
design for all tack room construction, a landscaping and
irrigation plan, a lighting plan, and details of the rest
room/caretaker facilities shall be brought back for
review and approval by the Design Review Committee prior
to final recordation of the map.
Design of the perimeter treatment of the tract including
but not necessarily limited to details of perimeter
walls/fences, landscaping, and community trails shall be
brought back for review and approval by the Design Review
Committee prior to final recordation of the map.
