The proposal is consistent with the intent of the text of the General plan document. RE: RESOLUTION NO. 93 - 82 12-20-93 staff Report A/S 93-30 2 11/22/93 . . This project conforms with the policies of Gilroy's General Plan. The following examples demonstrate this compliance: Urban Growth and Development (section II): Policy 4: "The city will phase development in an orderly, contiguous manner in order to maintain a compact development pattern to avoid premature investment for the extension of public facilities and services. Hew urban development will occur in areas where municipal services are available and capacity exists prior to the approval of development in areas which would require major new facility expansion." This project is consistent with this policy, because it will be constructed adjacent to developed residential land. public services and Facilities (section VI): Policy 7: "Parks and recreational facilities will be equitably distributed throughout the urbanized area. Neighborhood recreation facilities will be provided in existing neighborhoods where such facilities are presently lacking." A City park is proposed to be developed next to this project. No City parks currently exist in this area, and none would not installed in the near future without the development of this site. Policy 12: "Wherever possible, school and park facilities will be located adjacent to one another to enable facilities to be shared rather than duplicated. The developer has worked with the city and school District staff to locate the proposed school and park sites adjacent to each other. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS: A prior expanded Initial study (TM 93-01), which applies to this project, was prepared. The study found that there would be no significant effect on the environment as a result of this project, therefore a Negative Declaration was issued. BACKGROUND: A Tentative Map application (TM 93-01) was approved for this site on september 20, 1993. This map subdivided a 50 acre site into 48 lots, Forty-seven of these lots will be used to construct single family homes, and the large remainder lot will be subdivided at a future time, This property is zoned RI-PUD, which allowed the applicants to deviate from the minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet, and subdivide this parcel into lots ranging in size from 5,500 square feet to 7,000 square feet, with an overall density of 7.1 dwelling units per net acre. The PUD designation also requires Planning commission and city council approval of the Architectural and site design. staff Report Als 93-30 3 11/22/93 . . After approval of the Tentative Map, the property was sold to Kaufman and Broad, for construction of the second phase of their "california Hillcrest" development. The first phase of California Hillcrest is located directly north of this site, and consists of 65 single family units. ANALYSIS OF REQUEST: The applicant is requesting design review for the proposed construction of 47 detached single family homes on a 9.9 acre parcel of land. This project results from the approval of Tentative Map application TM 93- 01. This property is adjacent to a proposed school and city park site. The applicant has worked with city staff and the school district to create a site plan which would be acceptable to all parties. This plan includes locating the school adjacent to calle Del Rey, and adjacent to a second street in order to ensure adequate circulation for vehicles, as well as safety for children walking to school. The developer also worked with the City to prevent housing units from abutting the proposed city park. This is necessary in order to allow the park to be monitored by police patrol officers. In addition, the applicant and the city are examining the possibility of dedicating the park land to the City in lieu of paying park development fees. If attempts to negotiate an agreement fail, the applicant will be required to pay the normally required fee. Many of the parcels involved in this project are smaller than the 6,000 square foot minimum required for single family homes. The applicant wishes to construct the same model of homes on this site as were constructed in the first phase of california Hillcrest. Because of the smaller lot sizes in this phase, the applicant would be limited to constructing many of the proposed units with a 5 foot side yard setback. Although zoning ordinance section 11.30 requires a minimum 6 foot side yard setback, the PUD zoning overlay of this property allows flexibility with the zoning ordinance, as long as the developer provides extra amenities in exchange for the deviation from normal requirements. The developer is proposing to landscape all of these lots, which is not required by the Zoning ordinance, in exchange for being allowed to construct these homes with a minimum 5 foot setback. Although a new house design would be preferable in this second phase, staff feels that providing the landscaping is adequate to allow this discrepancy in the side yard setback. The site plan submitted for this request shows 47 single family lots which range in size from 5,500 to 7,000 square feet. Three home designs are proposed for the project. These are the same homes which were approved for the first phase of california Hillcrest, with the exception that the garage in plan one is located in front of the house, rather than attached to its side. This is necessary because of the narrower width of these lots. staff Report A/S 93-30 4 11/22/93 . . The home designs are as follows: plan One Plan One homes will be 1,500 square feet in area with single-story ranch style construction, and two-car garages. Architectural elements of these homes include front porches with vertical columns, wood tile roofs with hip and gable construction, stucco or wood siding, and detailed window framing. These homes will have their garages located in the front. plan Two plan Two homes will be 1,682 square feet in area, with two-story ranch style construction. This plan features both two-car and three-car garage models located in the front of the home, and Queen Anne Cottage style elevated porches. Architectural elements of these homes include cross-hatched wooden ventilation screens and vertical columns on the porches, bay windows, wood tile roofs with hip and gable construction, stucco or wood siding, and detailed window framing. plan Two homes have a unique floor plan, which places the living room, kitchen and dining room upstairs, and the majority of the bedrooms downstairs. Plan Three plan Three homes will be 1,780 square feet in area. These homes have two-story ranch style architecture, similar to Plan One units. plan Three offers both two-car and three-car garage models, and features irregular roof lines and varied projections of the external walls. The entrances of these dwellings are emphasized by formal entry ways which include porches and columns. Additional architectural elements of these homes include bay windows, wood tile roofs with hip and gable construction, stucco or wood siding and detailed window framing. Note: All plans have three different front elevation design schemes. Primary access to the development will be provided from calle del Rey. STAFF ACTION: staff recommends approval of the Architectural and site Review with the following conditions: 1. The applicant shall landscape all lots. Landscaping plans including specifications for an irrigation system shall be approved by the Planning Director in accordance with the city'S consolidated Landscaping Policy, prior to issuance of a building permit. The landscaping shall be continuously maintained in an orderly, live, healthy, and relatively weed-free condition, in accordance with the adopted landscaping policy. staff Report A/S 93-30 5 11/22/93 . . i . 2. Mechanical Appurtenances: Mechanical equipment to be located on the roof of a building shall be screened by an architectural feature of the building such that it cannot be seen from ground level at the far side of the adjacent public right-of-way, whenever possible. 3. The developer/applicant must obtain a sewer allotment for this project, and sign a sewer allotment agreement prior to the issuance of any building permits. 4. Building colors shall be earth tones. 5. The overall project shall comply with the prov1s10ns of section 5.50, entitled "site Design Requirements",.of the City Zoning Ordinance, pertaining to proposed individual dwelling unit designs. 6. The developer shall provide adequate all-weather secondary access for the project to meet the approvals of the city Engineer and the Gilroy Fire Department. 7. street addresses shall be assigned by the city public Works Department. 8. All proposed fencing must meet the requirements of the Planning Department. 9. Any retaining walls erected on this site shall be constructed of permanent materials such as concrete or masonry. wood shall not be permitted. 10. It is recommended that the first floor of any structures be constructed 2 feet above the existing ground, per the Santa clara valley Water District. Respectfully, ~j)er- Michael Dorn Director of Planning 12/2/93 At their meeting of December 2, 1993, the Planning Commission, by a vote of 6-0-1, recommended approval of A/S 93-30, subject to the 10 conditions as listed in the staff report, with the proviso that the applicant shall provide disclosure to prospective purchasers regarding Condition #1.
