Court) and Mr. and Ms. Hans and Roxana Hoehne (6217 Robin Court) have concerns <br />regarding reduced sunlight, reduced privacy, their view of the second story, a reduction <br />in property values, and that a two -story home is not consistent with the characteristics <br />of the neighborhood. Mr. and Ms. Joe and TinaMarie Perry (6104 Homer Court) have <br />also commented that the proposal may impact their privacy (particularly if a bedroom <br />window that is currently on the second story rear elevation is moved to the eastern <br />facade), that the addition will obstruct views out of their front living room window, <br />negatively impact the appearance of their home from the street by making it appear <br />recessed from the street, and that it will result in a reduction in their property value. <br />A Zoning Administrator hearing was held on June 30, 2010. The Zoning Administrator <br />approved the proposed project, subject to conditions of approval, including stipulations <br />that require landscape screening and modifications to windows on the second floor of <br />the rear elevation (please see the "Zoning Administrator Hearing" section of this staff <br />report for additional details). An appeal of that decision has been filed by Mr. and Ms. <br />Persin, Mr. and Ms. Hoehne, and Mr. and Ms. Perry. <br />SITE DESCRIPTION <br />The project site is a residential lot in the Val Vista neighborhood and is generally <br />located west of Hopyard Road and north of West Las Positas Boulevard.
