NATURE OF PROPOSED PROJECT
Describe in detail the nature of the proposed project, including what
aspects of the project require a Site Plan Review.
The oroiect entails the remodel to an existing single family residence and the ,
conatr»,rti9p of a new 6 car garage. barn and horse stable to replace the deteriorated
,fables and the addition of a vehicular turn around and guest parking grading for the
barn/stable and turn around requires site plan review
SITE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA
Site Plan Review criteria upon which the Planning Commission must
make an affirmative finding. Describe in detail the project's
conformance to the below criteria:
A. Is the project compatible with the General Plan, the zoning
ordinance and surrounding uses? Explain how it compares to sizes,
set -backs and other characteristics of neighboring houses.
The nronosed oroiect is in conformance with the general plan, zoning ordinance and
munic.ioal code. Additionally the project is consistant with development in the area.
B. Does the project preserve and integrate into the site design,
to the maximum extent feasible, existing natural topographic features
of the lot including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees,
drainage courses, and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls)?
Explain how the project preserves and integrates existing natural
features.
The proposed project is to be constructed on existing building pads. The new residence
addition replaces the existing 3 car attached garage and the new garage. barn and
stable replaces the existing smaller stable. The proiect is designed to preserve
existing specimine trees, some shrubs and no bearing fruit trees will be removed to
provide for guest parking and additional sodded grass area.
5
C. Does the site development plan follow natural contours of the
site to minimize grading; extensive grading and recontouring of
existing terrain to maximize buildable area shall not be approved?
Graded slopes shall be rounded and contoured so as to blend with
existing terrain. Grading shall not modify existing drainage or
re -direct drainage flow unless into an existing drainage courses.
Explain the nature and extent of the impact of grading and proposed
minimization measures.
SPP pap F.5 afifiarhed
D. Does the site development plan preserve surrounding native
vegetation and supplement it with landscaping that is compatible with
and enhances the rural character of the community? Landscaping
should provide a buffer and transition zone between private and
public areas. Explain how the project preserves native vegetation,
integrates landscaping and creates buffers.
See page 6.5 attached
E. Does the site development plan substantially preserve the
natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building
coverage? Lot coverage requirements shall be regarded as maximums
and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted should depend upon
the existing buildable area of the lot. Explain how the lot coverage
proposed compares with lot coverage square footage and percentages on
neighboring lots.
See page 6.5 attached
?. Is the site development plan harmonious in scale and mass with
:he site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences? Setbacks
;hall be regarded as minimums and more restrictive setbacks shall be
Imposed where necessary to assure proportionality and openness.
;xplain how the proposed project setbacks compare with the existing
etbacks of neighboring properties.
The proposed project setbacks are greater than the minimum set backs required
by municipal code,and do not represent any significant decreases in distances to
adjacent residences or properties.
6
C. The proposed site development following the natural contours of the site,
and the proposed grading preserves existing site drainage and drainage
flow. Retaining walls required by the new barn/garage/stable will be
mitigated by back filling to a maximum 2:1 slope to reduce the exposed
wall and the wall will be veneered with Palos Verde Stone to duplicate
the existing Palos Verdes Stone walls. The new guest parking area will
be constructed of permeable paving broken concrete and ground cover to
minimize asphalt paving.
D. The project is sensitive to the preservation of existing mature specimine
trees by virtue of placement of new building additions. Additionally,
new specimine Pepper and Ginko trees will be planted to suppliment existing
trees and the addition of Permeable Paving for guest parking substantially
reduces AC paving.
E. The proposed structure coverage at 5.6%.is approximately one quarter (28%)
of the maximum allowable of 20% structure coverage. The total coverage
of 18.6% is approximately one half of the maximum total coverage of 35%.
The proposed development is in substantially similar to building coverage
of adjacent properties.

•
•
G. Is the site development plan sensitive and not detrimental to
convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles?
Explain how the number and types of vehicles relate to the driveway
location, design, trip data and landscaping and other on -site parking
or storage areas.
The proposed improvements will provide better vehiqular circulation and increased.
parking by the addition of the new turn around, quest parking on permeable paving,
standard backup dimension at new garages _and the addition of 3 additional covered.
parking spaces with storage.
H. Does the site development plan conform with the requirements of
the California Environmental Quality Act? Explain how the project
impacts the environment, e.g., significant impact, proposed
mitigation measures.
The nronosed development does not im an ct the existing environment and is in
conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act.

exhibits, present the data and information required for the site plan
review criteria eevaluation to be the best of my ability; and, that

ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
20. The project site is 3.95 acres of rural gently sloping terrain developed
with a single family residence and garage and detached horse stables. The
soil is expansive but stable. The site is planted with mature trees
consisting of Eucalyptus, California Pepper, Citrus, Avacado, Ginko and
Maple. Additionally there is planted sod and ground cover around the main
residence. A variety of bushes and shrubs make up the balance of the
landscaping of the site. The existing house and stable was designed in a
Williamsburg style by Lutah May Riggs, a prominent woman architect from
the 1920's and 30's. There are no cultural aspects to the site.
21. The surrounding properties are developed in low density single family
residences on rolling hills and moderately sloping lots in a natural setting
of mature Eucalyptus and Pepper trees. Animal life varies from small mice,
squirrels and possum to deer and a variety of bird life. The surrounding
area is developed to encourage equestrian use and remains in a very natural
state affording senic views from the natural knolls of the rolling hills..
