427, Remodel of SFR adding 1607 sq., Staff Reportsill** STAFF REPORT **** • DATE: June 11, 1990 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: STAFF SUBJECT: ZONING CASE NO. 427; Request for Site Plan Review to determine compatibility of proposed residential additions and attached garage; 9 Upper Blackwater Canyon Road, Lot 98-1-RH; Owner: Dr. Lee Secrist DISCUSSION The Planning Commission, at their regular meeting of May 15, 1990, continued the above -stated application to an adjourned meeting so as to conduct a field investigation of the subject site and surrounding properties. At the site inspection, it was noted that the proposed project additions of 1,607 square feet (454 SF residential, 1,153 SF garage) will essentially be developed on the existing buildable pad, and that a small portion of the proposed structure will overhang the existing top of slope with no further grading to expand the pad. Issues that were to be addressed from the previous meeting on the matter are as follows: 1. The applicant's design professional has indicated that proposed coverage of the existing buildable pad area of 18,200 SF will be 31% 2. A "future" stable area has been sited on a revised site plan submitted to the City. 3. Impact to mature vegetation will be minimal, and with the existing residence well below the level of the roadway, any visual impacts are nearly nil. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission closedly examine the proposed project and potential impacts in accordance with zoning requirements and site development compatibility. The Commission must determine that findings required for site plan review approval as set forth by the ordinance are satisfied. zc427#2 DATE: April 30, 1990 PROJECT DESCRIPTION APPLICATION NO.: SITE LOCATION: ZONING: APPLICANT: REPRESENTATIVE: PUBLISHED: PRIOR CITY ACTIONS: PROPERTY SIZE/ CONFIGURATION: PRESENT DEVELOPMENT: STAFF REPORT Zoning Case No. 427 9 Upper Blackwater Canyon Road; Lot 98-1-RH RAS-2 Dr. Lee Secrist Richard Linde, Architect May 5, 1990 Tract 32256 100,624 SF (2.31 Ac Net); Irregular shape Single family residence, attached garage, pool REQUEST: Site Plan Review to determine compatibility of proposed residential additions and attached garage REVIEW AND EVALUATION OF ISSUES, In reviewing the applicant's request under Title 17 (Zoning), staff would identify the following issues for evaluation: 1.
