to the north and south. In order to comply with lot width <br />standards, the developer would be required to purchase a lot <br />to the north or south and demolish the existing development <br />on either site. This would result in increasing costs and would <br />make the project infeasible. Moreover, the development site <br />and adjacent properties all have smaller than average lot <br />widths, compared lots along north Harbor Boulevard. These <br />lots range in lot depth and width, but most exceed 200 feet in <br />lot width. In comparison, the site would have a lot width and <br />depth of 148.25 feet deep and 100 feet wide, with a deviation <br />of25 feet for the minimum required lot width. Although the site <br />has a deviation of 25 feet in the lot width, the Applicant's <br />stacked dwelling building design still accomplishes the <br />intention of the SP2 by providing a compatible design and <br />balanced composition of massing on the project site, with <br />appropriate interior floor area and individual unit sizes. <br />Onsite Open Space (Stacked Dwelling building type) (Waiver) <br />Pursuant to the Open Space Standards in SP2, the total <br />onsite open space open to the sky must be two-thirds and <br />designed as a courtyard or forecourt. Based on the lot size for <br />the proposed project, the total onsite open space open to the <br />sky should be 1,482 square feet and designed as a courtyard <br />orforecourt. As proposed, the project will have an 800 square - <br />foot deck. <br />As proposed, the project provides 800 square feet of open <br />space that is designed as a deck open to the sky. The deck <br />will be furnished, landscaped, and connected to the interior <br />1,477-square-foot community room. The proposed <br />configuration would provide a contiguous 2,277 square feet of <br />open space. Strict adherence to the two-thirds requirement <br />would lead to the elimination of two or more units, which would <br />affect the feasibility to construct the project. In order to <br />maintain the current proposed unit count, the developer would <br />be required to construct additional floor levels or required to <br />provide underground parking, which would further increase <br />development costs and make the project financially infeasible. <br />Moreover, due to the site's limited size, the project proposed <br />podium level parking, and the residential units stacked above <br />the podium parking. Creating a courtyard or forecourt, would <br />result in the project reducing the number of units by two or <br />more in order to adhere to the open space standards <br />Resolution No. 2023-080 <br />Page 5 of 11 <br />
