ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION REPORT
1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND SETTING
The proposed project includes two new residential structures, approximately 4,790 and 1,200 square
feet in size, which would contain a total of ten, one-bedroom units. The larger of the two new
structures would be three stories, 32 feet in height, and contain eight units. The second new structure
would be two stories, 31 feet in height, and contain two units. All new residential units are under 600
square feet each. Two existing structures (both approximately 2,400 square feet in size) containing
two, two-bedroom units each, will be retained on site. Minor exterior upgrades to these existing
structures such as exterior paint and material are also proposed.
The project includes the dedication of one unit as Very-Low Income, and the following two affordable
housing alternative incentive requests (§ 17.140.070), which are subject to Planning Commission
review: 1) a front setback reduction for 10 feet where 20 feet is normally required; and 2) a side
setback reduction of 7.5 feet where 14 feet would normally be required based on the height of the
building and architectural features(Attachment 1, Project Plans). The project also includes a request
for a creek setback exception to allow for the new structure to be constructed 8 feet, 10 inches from
the top of creek bank where a 20-foot setback is normally required, which will be reviewed and
considered by the Planning Commission.
General Location: The 24,000-square foot
project site is an existing parcel with direct
access off Rockview Place. The property is
bisected by a seasonal creek, which crosses
the back third of the property, and the
property slopes down away from the street
towards creek at an approximately 7% slope.
Present Use: Multi-Unit Dwellings
Zoning: Medium-Density Residential, Special
Considerations Overlay (R-2-S). Special
consideration for creek and compatibility
with adjacent commercial zoning
General Plan: Medium-Density Residential
