MINOR DESIGN REVIEW DRC2013-00397 - PETE VOLBEDA- Site Plan and architectural
review of a proposed 4,041 square foot single-family residence with a 1,009 square foot
attached garage on a 20,624 square foot lot on the north side of loamosa Court and west of
Hellman Avenue within the Very Low (VL) Residential Development District, located at
9260 loamosa Court - APN: 1061-611-17. The Planning Department staff has determined
that the project is categorically exempt as a Class 3 exemption under State CEQA
Guidelines Section 15303 which covers the construction of a limited number of new, small
facilities or structures including the construction of 1 single-family residence in a residentially
zoned district.
Project Proposal: The applicant proposes constructing a single-family residence on a
vacant lot located on the north side of loamosa Court and west of Hellman Avenue. A
Variance is being requested to reduce the required 60-foot rear yard setback to 30 feet.
Staff supports the Variance request as the approved Tentative Tract Map
(SUBTT16461) included a Variance (DRC2003-00902) that reduced the required
200-foot lot depth to less than 150 feet. The result is a substandard lot on which it would
be very difficult to design a residence without the rear yard setback reduction. The
residence conforms to all other Development Code requirements including design, lot
coverage, and setbacks (front and side).
Staff Comments: Staff is pleased with the final design of the residence. The Tuscan
design theme including stone veneer and decorative rafter tails have been carried to all
elevations. Staff's only concern is that the residence is at the maximum 25 percent lot
coverage, which will preclude the applicant from adding any additional solid roof
structures on the lot in the future.
Major Issues: None.
Secondary Issues: None.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Committee forward the project to
the Planning Commission for final approval as presented.
Design Review Committee Action:
The project was approved as presented.
Members Present: Fletcher, Wimberly, and Granger
Staff Planner: Tabe van der Zwaag
