Overall, staff believes that the building designs are attractive, and that the architectural style,
<br /> articulation, finish, colors, and materials are appropriate for the Downtown, comply with the
<br /> Downtown Design Guidelines, and would complement the existing buildings on Stanley
<br /> Boulevard and other areas in the Downtown.
<br /> House Sizes and Floor Area Ratio
<br /> The lots would range in size from 2,603 square feet to 3,965 square feet (net area) and the
<br /> homes would range in size from approximately 1,599 square feet to 1,920 square feet. The
<br /> resulting FARs would range from 48 to 67 percent. While the FARs are higher than the 40%
<br /> maximum allowed for the R-1-6,500 Zoning District (which requires a minimum lot size of
<br /> 6,500 sq. ft.), the proposed FARs are not exceptionally large when compared to FARs on
<br /> similarly sized lots in recent PUD projects in the Downtown.
<br /> For comparison purposes, the table below lists the lot sizes, house sizes, and FARs of the
<br /> proposed project and some other small-lot single-family developments that were approved in the
<br /> Downtown.
