CUP No. 2022-06 — 2221 N. Heliotrope Drive <br />March 28, 2022 <br />Page 2 <br />As designed, the structure would be ancillary and subordinate the main single-family <br />residence. The height of the proposed structure in comparison to the main residence is <br />illustrated on the architectural plan set provided by the architect (see Exhibit 4). The <br />height of the existing residence is approximately 25 feet while the tallest point of the <br />pavilion (pavilion roof peak) is proposed to be a maximum of 21'-8". There are two <br />additional structures on the site, including a freestanding one-story pool house/cabana <br />and a freestanding one-story garden house. The pool house is approximately 13 feet it <br />height, while the garden house is a maximum 15 feet in height to the tallest ridge point. <br />As described by the applicants, the pavilion is currently built in Vietnam. It's built in a <br />traditional Vietnamese design and was fabricated by Vietnamese artisans. The pavilion <br />structure is proposed to be disassembled, shipped to Santa Ana, and reconstructed on <br />the subject property. As proposed, the pavilion would share a similar design, materials, <br />and cultural characteristics as the existing garden house on the site. Specifically, the <br />structure would include prefabricated wood post members, traditional Vietnamese hand - <br />carved wood details, and would include ceramic roofing tile. <br />Lastly, the installation of the structure would be designed and overseen by a licensed <br />structural engineer and the structure would not include mechanical or plumbing <br />equipment. The structure would include two electrical outlets and limited accent lighting, <br />including two to four light fixtures within the structure and three to six landscape/up- <br />lights at the base. <br />Table 1: Proiect and Location Information <br />Item <br />Information <br />Project Address and Council Ward <br />2221 North Heliotrope Drive — Ward 3 <br />Nearest Intersection <br />Santa Clara Avenue and Heliotrope Drive <br />General Plan Designation <br />Low Density Residential LR-7 <br />Zoning Designation <br />Sin le-F mily Residence R1 <br />Surrounding Land Uses <br />North <br />Single -Family Residences <br />East <br />Single -Family Residences <br />South <br />Single -Family Residences <br />West <br />Single -Family Residences <br />Property Size <br />0.90 acres 39,547 square feet <br />Existing Site Development <br />The subject site is developed with a two-story historic single- <br />family residence known as the Maharajah House.
