430, Addition & remodel to existing, Staff ReportsSTAFF REPORT
DATE: JULY 6, 1990
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: STAFF
SUBJECT: ZONING CASE NO. 430; Request for Site Plan Review of proposed
residential additions; 10 Saddleback Road, Lot 17-1-RH;
Owner: Fobi
DISCUSSION
The above -stated request was continued by the Planning Commission from the
regular meeting of June 19, 1990 to the adjourned meeting of June 30 in
order to conduct a field inspection of the site and surrounding
properties. At the field inspection, it was noted that the proposed
additions to the front and rear of the existing residence will comply with
setback and lot coverage requirements, subject to modifications to the
extent of flatwork. Further, due to more restrictive setbacks identifed
in the code for a double roadway frontage parcel and the lot's highly
irregular shape, the buildable area of the site is significantly limited.
Issues to be addressed from the previous meetings are as follows:
1. The extent of buildable pad coverage beyond the suggested City policy
standard of 40 percent was identified.
2. Additional landscaping to be provided to soften visual impact of the
rear residential extensions.
3. Commission's suggested recommendations to applicant regarding
neighborhood relations during the construction period and informing
subcontractors of City requirements.
RECOMMENDATION
The Commission must evaluate the proposed project and determine that the
findings required for site plan review approval as set forth by the
ordinance are satisfied. Based upon the evidence submitted and the
identified hardships imposed upon the property due to its location and
irregular shape, Staff is of the opinion that the proposed project can be
approved.

REVIEW AND EVALUATION OF ISSUES,
In reviewing the applicant's request under Title 17 (Zoning), staff would
identify the following issues for evaluation:
1. The applicant desires site plan review for 1,347 square feet of
residential additions that would involve increasing the existing building
beyond 25 percent. The proposed additions will comply with required yard
setbacks in the RAS-1 zone, and result in no greater incursion of an
existing nonconforming residence into the front yard setback.
2. The project calls for use of the existing buildable pad without
further grading. Pad coverage calculations: have been provided for
Commission review and evaluation, and would indicate a figure above
prescribed policy. The applicant's design professional has addressed lot
coverages for the site, and it necessitated plan for removal of flatwork
to comply with total lot coverage. Structure coverage is proposed within
the code limit of 20%.
3. The Commission may wish to address landscape requirements
regarding retention and/or replacement of vegetation.
4. Staff has received contact from a resident of the subject area,
desiring Commission comment on parking and circulation of construction
vehicles utilizing Saddleback Road and potential traffic hazards.
RECOMMENDATION
The Commission must evaluate the project and determine that the findings
required for site plan review approval as set forth by the ordinance are
satisfied. The Commission should receive public testimony and continue
the matter to an adjourned meeting so as to inspect the site and
surrounding properties.
