Weinstein: Right. <br />Allen: And to clarify, if it's 700 square feet, only 100 square feet and not the full <br />700 counts. <br />Nagler: Correct, it's everything over 600. <br />Allen: Okay, so I'm good with the plan then as we see it. The only piece that I'd like to <br />just ask you all on is the additional amount that's shown. I mean we've got a plan for the <br />homes that are being built but we also... if we approve this as is, we're also approving <br />the right to build another 500 square feet for each of the homes as shown on page 7 of <br />15. So in addition to the plan we have, it could go larger and we wouldn't have purview <br />of having a discussion about screening and trees and other things that might happen. <br />Balch: Well you don't know if they're going to build above ground. With Lot 3, you could <br />easily build a wine cellar in that hill underneath the second story. <br />Allen: Would you be open to having some condition related to that? <br />Balch: Well, they're going to have to come get a permit. <br />Ritter: But that would need to be per the code. <br />Weinstein: Any additions to these properties would have to go through the staff level <br />design review process. <br />Allen: So if there's a view impact if it was being put in a different place and there's a <br />view impact, that's something that would be pushed up most likely? <br />Weinstein: Yes, that's right. That's what we look for when we look for applications that <br />go through the design review process. We look at compatibility with the surrounding <br />neighborhood. We look at views. We look at overall aesthetic character. <br />Allen: Okay, thank you. <br />Weinstein: Just to be clear too, so with our revised FAR calculations there would be a <br />little bit less square footage that you could add to Lot 3 because we're already at 23 %. <br />You can only go up to 25% so that somewhat addresses the massing issue of additional <br />building square footage being added onto Lot 3. <br />Ritter: So just with a nod, did you all say upsize the five front trees? <br />Allen: Yes. <br />Balch: Yes <br />Ritter: That's a London Plane tree? That will end up obstructing the driveway access <br />onto the road? <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 9, 2016 Page 17 of 25 <br />
