REQUEST AND BACKGROUND
1. The applicant, Mr. Nicholas Tonsich, requests consideration of two new
driveways that would serve his and adjacent property, (40 and 42 Eastfield Drive). The
proposed driveway apron serving 40 Eastfield would be 32-feet wide and the proposed
driveway apron serving 42 Eastfield Drive would be 33-feet wide. A planter area of
between 6-9 feet wide would separate the driveways. The driveways width would vary
from 15-20 feet. This proposal is the same as the one that the City Council reviewed in
March 2013.
The Traffic Commission in January 2012 reviewed and recommended approval of the
originally submitted two driveway configuration, which was substantially the same;
except for the width of the aprons (24'), and located two feet northwest of currently
proposed driveways.
At the end of this staff report is a summary of previous actions by the Traffic
Commission, Planning Commission and City Council.
2. Currently 40 and 42 Eastfield share a common driveway apron and a short
distance of the driveway itself, before it divides into two driveways, each serving a
separate property. The current single apron and portion of the driveway are located on
an adjacent property at 38 Eastfield Drive. Access to 38 Eastfield Drive is taken through
a separate driveway located further northwest from the driveway apron to 40 and 42
Eastfield.
