RANCHO PAL OS VERDES (310) 541-8490 NATURE OF PROPOSED PROTECT Describe in detail the nature of the proposed project, including what aspects of the project require a Site Plan Review: PROPOSED PROJECT CONSTSTS OF A NFW "RTNG OF STFET" BARN WTTH ADJOINING CORRALS. A. SITE PLAN REVIEW IS REQUIRED BECAUSE OF THE GRADING IN EXCESS OF A 2000 SQUARE FOOT AREA. • • 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 with the criteria below: A. Is the project compatible with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses? Explain how it compares to the sizes, setbacks and other characteristics of neighboring houses. THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE GENERAL PLAN, ZONING ORDIA`IVCES AND SURROUNDING USES:'. B. How 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 MINIMIZES THE IMPACT OF EXISTING NATURAL TOPOGRAPHY, VEGETATION, MATURE TREES, DRAINAGE COURSES AND NATURAL LAND FEATURES . C. How 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 redirect drainage flow unless into an existing drainage course. Explain the nature and extent of the impact of grading and proposed minimization on lots. THE PROPOSED LIMITS THE GRADING OF THE SITE TO THE EXTENT COMPATIBLE WITH PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE PROPOSED USE. D. To what extent 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. THE EXISTING SITE IS PLANTED WITH TREES. THEY ARE, FOR THE MOST PART, BEING PRESERVED. THE REMAINING VEGETATION CONSISTS OF SEASONAL GRASSES AND WEEDS. • • E. How does the site development plan 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. THE PROPOSED LOT COVERAGE IS INSIGNIFICANT IN COMPARISON TO THE TOTAL SITE AREA. F. Is the site development plan harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences? Setbacks shall be regarded as minimums and more restrictive setbacks shall be imposed where necessary to assure proportionality and openness. Explain how the proposed project setbacks compare with the existing setbacks of neighboring properties. THE SETBACKS OF NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES VARIES TO THE FACT THAT ALL PORTION OF THE NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES ARE USED FOR OPEN SPACE OR PASTURES. 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, landscaping and other on -site parking or storage areas. THE PROPOSED PLAN WILL HAVE NO IMPACT ON THE CIRCULATION OF PEDESTRIANS OR VEHICLES. 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 PROPOSED PLAN WILL.HAVE NO IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT • 403 GEORGEFF DATE ZONING CASE NO.
