Zoning Administrator Tentative Map to subdivide one lot into three (3) lots, two of which for construction

of a half-plex, on 0.32± partially developed acres in the Standard Single-Family Residential (R-1) Del

Paso Nuevo Special Planning District (SPD) zone.

.

Approved the Tentative Map subject to conditions and based upon Findings of

Fact.

A residential lot deeper than 160 feet is considered to be a "deep lot" by definition, and the City Zoning

Code can allow more than one dwelling on a deep lot, subject to approval of a Special (conditional use)

Permit. The applicant's proposal is to construct a total of three (3) dwellings on property, at a density no

greater than equivalent to the minimum lot size (5200 sq.ft) for the single-family zone. This request

requires a public hearing before the Zoning Administrator for the following entitlement:

Special Permit for Deep Lot Development to construct three (3) single-family dwellings on a 0.5± acre

vacant parcel which is more than 160 feet deep in the Standard Single-Family Residential (R-1) zone.

.

Approved the Special Permit subject to conditions and based upon Findings of

Fact.

City Zoning Code restricts the height of residential accessory structures to 18 feet overall with a 10-foot

maximum wall height, essentially limiting such structures to only one story. The applicant is requesting

permission to construct a 2-story accessory structure to replace the existing garage, to provide home

office/studio space above the garage. This request requires a public hearing before the Zoning

Administrator for the following entitlement:

Special Permit to allow a two-story accessory structure to replace the existing detached garage with wall

height increased from the maximum ten (10) feet allowed to 17 feet and overall height increased from

the maximum 18 feet allowed to 21 feet on 0.13± developed acres in the Standard Single-Family

Residential (R-1) zone.

.

Approved the Special Permit subject to conditions and based upon Findings of

Fact.

The applicant is requesting to construct a garage and a driveway within an existing single family

residence. The project requires the following entitlement by the Zoning Administrator:

Variance to reduce the required driveway depth of 18 feet to 11 feet, 8 inches for a new garage to be

constructed within an existing single family residence on 0.05± developed acres in the Multi Family (R-5)

zone.

The applicant has permission to construct an off-site parking lot for the church use on a vacant parcel

south of Ripley between Astoria Avenue and Winters Street. The applicant is required to construct a

masonry wall along the south and western property lines because the future off-site parking lot abuts

parcels that are zoned residential. The applicant is requesting to waive the required masonry wall and

construct a wrought iron fence instead along the area adjacent to the single family zone. The project

requires the following entitlement by the Zoning Administrator:

Variance to waive the required masonry wall along the south and west property lines of an off-site

parking lot for a church use adjacent to a residential zone on 1.2± acres in the Single Family (R-1) zone.

Approved the variance subject to conditions of approval and based upon findings

of fact.
