HomeMy WebLinkAbout1239ORDINANCE NO. 1239 (1993 SERIES) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO AMENDING THE ZONING REGULATIONS MAP TO CHANGE A SEVEN -ACRE SITE ON THE SOUTHWESTERLY CORNER OF LAUREL LANE AND SOUTHWOOD DRIVE FROM R -3 -S TO R -3 -PD, ALLOWING SOME EXCEPTIONS TO YARDS AND LOT SIZES (PD 13 -93) WHEREAS, the City Council has held a hearing to consider the planned development request PD 13 -93; and WHEREAS, the City Council makes the following findings; Findings 1. The project provides facilities or amenities suited to a particular occupancy group, specifically first -time buyers with children, which would not be feasible under conventional zoning. 2. The project provides more affordable housing than would be possible with conventional development. Specifically, the creation of a grid- system street and lot design, with narrower streets and smaller lots, with pre- approved standard expandable home designs, allows a development that resembles a conventional single- family subdivision to be built at lower cost. 3. Features of the particular design, specifically the smaller lots, zero - lot -line configuration, smaller side- and streetyards, sound walls, narrow private streets, and grid layout, achieve the intent of conventional standards for privacy, usable open space, adequate parking, and compatibility with neighborhood character, as well as or better than the standards themselves. 4. No useful purpose would be served by strict compliance with the fence height regulations. BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows: SECTION 1.
