<br />Tentative Parcel Map No. 2005-10 <br />Variance No. 2005-14 <br />October 10, 2005 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />Staff recommends approval of the variance request for the reduced street <br />frontage for several reasons. First, the requirement to maintain 120 <br />feet of street frontage is intended to ensure that commercial <br />developments are built on parcels that have adequate street frontage <br />that allow access to the site. The proposed subdivision will result in <br />the creation of two parcels: one with 48 feet of frontage and a second <br />with approximately 340 feet of frontage. This smaller frontage is <br />acceptable to staff as St. Jeanne will utilize the smaller frontage as <br />an access point to the site. The 340 feet of frontage for the new <br />parcel exceeds the minimum frontage for a commercial site and will <br />provide adequate frontage for access to the new parcel. Second, St. <br />Jeanne will use the driveway as a secondary access point to the ball <br />field, future child care facility and as a secondary access point to the <br />campus during morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up times. Therefore, <br />since the school will not be utilizing First Street as the primary <br />street frontage for the school, the need for the minimum 120 feet of <br />frontage is not needed. Finally, upon build out of both parcels, the <br />parcels will serve as an integrated development site between the school <br />and the future office building, thereby minimizing the need for 120 feet <br />of frontage for the school site. <br /> <br />Based on the above analysis, staff recommends that <br />Commission approve Tentative Parcel Map No. 2005-10 (County <br />317) as conditioned and Variance No. 2005-14 as conditioned <br />5,6 and 7). <br /> <br />the Planning <br />Map No. 2004- <br />(Exhibits 4, <br /> <br />CEQA Compliance <br /> <br />This proj ect was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the <br />California Environmental Quality Act. The recommendation is exempt from <br />further review pursuant to Section 15315. This Class 15 exemption allows <br />the subdivision of four or fewer lots that comply with the General Plan. <br />Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2005-03 will be filed for <br />this project. <br /> <br />Vince Freg <br />Senior Pla <br /> <br /> <br />VF:JM <br />vf\reportS\TPM05-10&VAOS-14.pc <br /> <br />31A-4 <br />
