In addition, the buildings have been designed to have recessed floors, projections and balconies to add visual interest to the design. The project also requires an eight -foot wide dedication along Edinger Avenue, a painted median on Edinger Avenue restricting access to the site to right turns in and out, and the installation of "no left turn" signs on - site at the driveways (Exhibit 6 through 8). Prolect Background and Chronology In 2015, the property owner submitted an application to develop the site with 15 units which would require a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation of the site to Medium Density Residential (15 dwelling units per acre). In accordance with the Sunshine Ordinance, the applicant held a community meeting on April 18, 2015, to review plans for a 15- unit, two-story development consisting of duplex and single-family buildings. Between 2015 and 2016 the applicant revised the proposal to add 3 additional units and redesigned the project to include three-story townhomes. On June 8, 2016, the developer attended the Windsor Village & Windsor Village North Neighborhood Associations meeting to review the revised building design for a proposed 18-unit development plan. In addition, on August 16, 2018, staff attended the Windsor Village & Windsor Village North Neighborhood Associations meeting to give a status update on the project. The community voiced support of project and development of the site. Based on community comments received at the meeting, the project has been further refined to locate the trash enclosures to an internal location away from the adjacent single-family dwellings. In addition, recently the applicant revised the plans to eliminate one unit, add additional guest parking to comply with the townhome off-street parking standard of 4 parking spaces per unit and to comply with private open space standards.
