30 to 35 feet depending on the lot. Lot 1 and 2 are setback further but Lot 3 has the porch closer, which is still 30 feet from the adjacent property. Commissioner Pace asked if there will also be trees that are 15-gallon or greater in between the two properties. Ms. Hagen confirmed that would be the case. Mr. Beaudin responded that the trees are 15-gallon potted trees which are somewhat small, so the Commission may consider asking that larger sized trees be planted to help create privacy initially versus over time as they mature. Commissioner Pace inquired about the City's internal traffic plan review process. Ms. Hagen responded that all departments have received and reviewed the plans, including Traffic Engineering, which has concluded there would not be any negligible impacts associated with this project that are not covered with the new improvements along Stanley Boulevard. Mr. Beaudin added that California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is a requirement and as an infill project, this is consistent with zoning, and an additional traffic study is not required for a subdivision of this size. Commissioner Brown inquired about the orientation of the windows and height of the proposed homes as currently presented in the plans. Ms. Hagen said the current orientation and heights of the proposed homes are permitted within the PUD. If any changes were made above 10 feet in height then it must go through staff review and an administrative design review process, and neighbors would be notified. Commissioner Ritter inquired whether the zoning has changed over the past five years. Ms. Hagen responded the current zoning has been in place for more than the past five years, prior to when the PUD was submitted. Commissioner Brown asked if the heritage home next door was also zoned PUD-HDR. Ms. Hagen said both are high density but since they did not have a development plan approved, they do not have PUD development standards. When the PUD plan expired, it would fall back to the R-1-20 standards. So currently, if either of the homes wanted to add on, they would follow the single-family R-1-20 standards which require setbacks of 20 feet in the front, 5 feet along the sides and 20 feet in the rear and up to two stories. Discussion Point 1: Are the overall site plan, landscaping, parking, and access/circulation acceptable? Commissioner Brown expressed his agreement on all proposed points and feels that changing the design to three lots from four was a favorable decision given the amount of space.

If they were to switch the driveway to the other side of the property on the west side, it would put the homes against the back of the property. Ms. Hagen said if the plan was flipped, the first floor would have an approximate 10-foot setback and the second floor would be 15 feet, whereas as currently designed, it is set back on Planning Commission Minutes Page 4 of 7 June 12, 2019
