A zone change to Single-Family Residence (R1) is <br />required to make the proj ect consistent with the density proposed at <br />seven dwelling units per acre. The proposed Single-Family Residence <br />(R1) zoning district will be consistent with the LMR11 General Plan land <br />use designation (Exhibit 3). <br /> <br />The proposed project involves the construction of eight new single-family <br />residences. The lot sizes range from 6,074 square feet to 7,346 square <br />feet. Three different floor plans are proposed for this project. Plan 1 <br />includes 2,233 square feet of living area with three bedrooms and a den. <br />Plan 2 includes 2,395 square feet of living area with three bedrooms and a <br />den. Plan 3 includes 2,521 square feet of area with four bedrooms and a <br />den. All three floor plans have three full bathrooms, an interior laundry <br />room, a center island in the kitchen, separate tub and shower in the <br />master bathroom, a walk-in closet in the master bedroom and a fireplace in <br />the living room and family room. <br /> <br />Access to the proposed project <br />A two-car attached garage and <br />provided for each unit. <br /> <br />will be provided from Mountain View Street. <br />two tandem spaces in the driveway will be <br /> <br />The architectural style proposed for this project is contemporary with <br />some Craftsman and Mediterranean influences.

Additionally, siding and porches with square columns are <br />features used on the elevations to characterize the Craftsman Bungalow <br />styles (Exhibits 4 through 13) . <br /> <br />Analysis of the Issues <br /> <br />The property has been historically vacant primarily due to the location <br />of the parcel and lack of access to an arterial street. Because of the <br />limited lot size and location, it is not practical to achieve a viable <br />and quality design for a multi-family residential development. The <br />current zoning designation for this property is Two-Family Residence <br />(R2). This zoning, which has been in place over 20 years, is consistent <br /> <br />75A-3 <br />
