two stories versus three stories. So we were really trying to meet the character of the <br />neighborhoods rather than making one or two big buildings. You know, then we can <br />maybe have parking but the scale would be different from what we see here. <br />O'Connor: Do you know how many curb cuts are in the front of these three lots? How <br />many curb cuts are there today? Because now it only looks like you need one. So are <br />we filling in two other curb cuts that would have been for driveways for the other two <br />lots? <br />Lee: Right now I know the existing home had a driveway with two lots on both sides <br />Amos: There are two curb cuts along the project frontage. <br />Commissioner Nagler: So we're eliminating one. <br />Lee: Yes, we're eliminating one <br />Amos: There's 3 lots currently, so that's why. They have a curb cut along where there's <br />a garage in the back through here. They have a curb cut here and they have another <br />curb cut through here for this vacant parcel here. <br />O'Connor: So there are three today and we only need one, so we're actually filling in <br />two? <br />Lee: Potentially, we may be getting one or two extra parking spaces on St. John, but we <br />have not taken the exact measurement of the existing condition and how many parking <br />spaces fit in there. With the proposed one curb cut, we are providing 7 parking spaces. <br />Chair Ritter: And no guest spaces. <br />Lee: We're assuming St. John Street will have a guest parking space. <br />Commissioner Nagler: The assumption is that each owner will have two cars <br />Lee: The requirement is one enclosed and one uncovered space. We're providing two <br />covered spaces per residence. <br />Commissioner O'Connor: This area can be real tight for parking for anyone. Staff, is <br />there a way to tell the owners of these units that they can't park on the street? You <br />know, a lot of people fill up their garages with things and even if you put that in the <br />conditions of approval, there's really not an easy way to manage that. So if they don't <br />have the two spaces available, they'll also be out on the street as well as the guests. I <br />don't know how to solve that real tight parking area. <br />Amos: Your experience is exactly the same that we all discussed before which is, we <br />have the requirement in the conditions of approval that it is disclosed in the CC &Rs and <br />you can try to have enforcement of that, but whether someone decides to park in the <br />street because they know a guest is coming and maybe offer the guest the parking <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 23, 2016 Page 28 of 46 <br />
