Project Site Development History In June 2001, the City Council approved PUD-05 (Ordinance 1832, attached as Exhibit D), which allowed the construction of nine single family homes on the LDR portions of the property. To date, seven of the nine homes have been constructed on the streets now known as Silver Oaks Lane and Silver Oaks Court. In 2005, the Planning Commission approved the construction of a second unit (caretaker unit), a barn/garage/workshop, a horse barn, and a hay barn on the approximately 34.3-acre site that contains the existing residence. In 2014, the City Council approved PUD-84. It allowed the construction of two custom homes in the northern HR area, where three homes were originally allowed. The applicant agreed to eliminate the third home site in the northern HR area. Both homes have received design review approval. The proposed PUD development plan would create two new residential lots in the southern HR area. The area containing the existing residence (approximately 15.86 acres) would be designated a remainder lot and is not part of this PUD development plan application. The primary focus of this report is the area that contains proposed Lots 1 and 2, and a portion of the existing road that would provide access to the new lots (comprising approximately 18.44 acres). SITE DESCRIPTION The subject property is located on the south side of Old Vineyard Avenue, now known as Vineyard Avenue Trail. It contains the Berlogar residence, a caretaker's residence (second unit), a barn/workshop building, and a hay barn. The site is characterized by a steeply incised northerly-flowing intermittent creek running through the center of the long, narrow lot. A private road provides access to the Berlogar residence and accessory buildings. The site has been used for cattle grazing and horseback stabling/riding. There is also a small vineyard. The intermittent creek's habitat has been compromised by many years of intensive cattle grazing, and its lower end has been filled. Steeper areas contain blue oak woodland habitat. The elevations of the subject site range from 423 feet at the northern corner of the site near Old Vineyard Avenue to 695 feet at the top of the ridge near the southern property line. The Berlogar residence is connected to the city's sewer and water system via private sewer and water lines. Figure 2 shows the project site location.
