grading; however, they are asking for an exception for agricultural structures to be higher than 30 feet to allow for barns and stables. Second, regarding security gates, Ms. Goldade stated that there is already a significant trespassing problem on the property, and they think it is really important to have a security gate for the project. She noted that the regional trail mentioned by Mr. Otto is as proposed in the General Plan and is basically the same alignment as what was proposed in the previous project. And finally, Ms. Goldade stated that they think the biological discussion should be held and weighed on and not pre -judge any of the studies that are currently underway as part of the CEQA process. Commissioner Narum inquired if any of the ten lots will be restricted to a single -story house. Ms. Goldade replied that right now, they are proposing that there be a development envelope to build on, so there is no proposal for that at this time. She added that it would depend on what comes out of the CEQA process. Commissioner Narum requested clarification that there is no restriction and that they are not proposing to have a restriction for single -story on any of the lots. Ms. Goldade said no. Commissioner O'Connor asked Ms. Goldade to repeat what they are asking to be outside of the current proposed guidelines, and how many square feet of an accessory structure they are talking about. Ms. Goldade replied that initially, they did not think there should be a square footage limitation for the project, but if there had to be one, it would be 12,500 square feet for the primary unit and 1,200 square feet for each residential accessory structure beyond that, which could include a garage structure of up to ten cars or a secondary unit as allowed under State law or any other type of accessory structure. Commissioner O'Connor commented that a 1,200- square -foot garage would not accommodate ten cars. Ms. Goldade explained that it would depend on how it is laid out; for example, it could be a tandem garage or a garage with a couple of doors that are laid out like a courtyard system. She noted that Commissioner O'Connor might be thinking about a basement garage where there are drive aisle and garage stalls on either side. Commissioner O'Connor stated that a standard garage is typically about 200 - square feet per car, unless it is a very small car; therefore, if they are proposing a ten -car garage, then it would have to be more than 1,200 square feet.
