SUBJECT: Site Plan review for 1 Pinto Road, Rolling Hills
Dear Mr. Currier:
I have reviewed the plan you submitted on September 12, 2003 for the detached garage
for the subject property.
The plan, as submitted, is not sufficiently accurate or complete to consider for placement
before the Planning Commission. The following corrections must be made:
1. It appears that the net lot area is incorrectly calculated. I checked the Assessor's
map, (lot 7567-13-11), which shows the lot at 89,908 square feet, excluding the roadway
easements. The City maps show Pinto Road as having a 50-foot wide right of way and
Portuguese Bend Road as having a 60-foot wide right of way. The City's requirement for
calculating the net lot area is as follows: exclude the roadway easements from the gross
lot area, (25 feet along Pinto Road and 30 feet along Portuguese Bend Road) and exclude
additional ten feet around all nronertv lines. (See enclosed example). Assuming that
the Assessor's maps are correct, the 136,353 (2.44 acres) shown by you as the net lot area
seems incorrect.
2. The City's setback requirements are as follows:
Front yard - 50 feet from the roadway easement (not from the property line, which in
most instances in the City is in the middle of the road);
Side yard — 35 feet from the property line
Side yard on a lot where the side abuts a street - 25 feet from the roadway easement
3. .The residential building pad is measured from the setback lines, and does not
include the areas within the setbacks, even though the areas within the setback could be
flat (10% or less). Therefore, in this case, the building pad is much less than 33,513
square feet.
4. To calculate the building pad coverage, you must add the square feet of all of the
structures on the lot, which in this case includes the shed, house, sports court, swimming
@Printed or; F_t.yclyd
•
pool, the existing garage, the proposed garage and a minimum of 96 square foot area for
keeping the trash, (if an area for trash already exists, show it on the plan and include in
the structural coverage, as it is required to be enclosed). Whatever that total number is, it
is to be divided by the residential building pad (#3 above).
5. The structural lot coverage and the total lot coverage, which included all
impervious surfaces (flatwork) and structures get to be calculated against the net lot area
(#1 above). For the calculation of the total structural and flatwork coverage you would
need to include the concrete pad from the burnt -out stable.
6. You need to show the size and percentage of the disturbed area of the net lot. In
general, the disturbed area is that area of the lot that at some point in the past was graded
in order to construct the structures. So in this case the disturbed area would be the area of
the building pad plus those areas outside the building pad where any impervious surfaces
and structures exist (impervious surfaces and structures or parts thereof, which are
located in the setback). For the disturbed area do not include the roadway easements, but
include the setback areas, if they were graded or constructed upon.
7. On the sheet called "CALCULATIONS OF LOT COVERAGE" please calculate
the existing and proposed development.
Please revise the site plan and calculations and submit for my review, prior to formally
applying.
I remember providing you with all of our requirements. However, I am enclosing them
with this letter together with the submittal fees and schedule.
As you know, we will require the following applications and fees: a Site Plan Review for
the new structure, ($1500); a Conditional Use Permit for a detached garage (structure),
.($1500); Variance to locate the structure in the front yard setback ($1250); and
environmental review fee — $200. A list and address labels for all property owners within
1000-foot radius is also required.
Please do not hesitate to call me, should you have any questions.
S ncerely
/1 .,
