porches, bay windows, dormer windows, and other architectural features are encouraged to reduce visual bulk and create interest. Buildings should be designed for consistency in massing, proportions, details, materials, and colors on all exterior walls. Roof forms should generally include traditional styles such as hip and/or gable. Brick, stucco, stone or wood is encouraged for exterior walls, while slate, concrete, clay (barrel or flat) or architectural composition shingles are allowed for roofing materials. All colors should be earth tones. The proposed residence is a one-story structure with articulated wall lines, and low-pitched variable roof lines that reduce the perceived massing of the residence and promote visual interest. The entire residence incorporates smooth horizontal composite lapped siding and dark composition shingle roofing consistent with the intended architectural style. The main body color is a light olive green generally consistent with the recommended earth tone color range for the subdivision. As proposed, the exterior walls of the residence will be articulated, and the detailing of the building will be compatible with others in the neighborhood. The use of smooth siding treatments, wall articulation and detailing will create an attractive residence for the neighborhood. The prominent front entry porch element adds architectural interest and the residence design incorporates high quality materials and elements. The front entry and garage doors are sufficiently detailed and are compatible with the design of the proposed residence. The architectural design and finish materials/colors are generally consistent in their interpretation of the Craftsman/Bay Area Traditional architectural style. Figures 4 and 5 show the proposed elevations. Landscaping The architectural design guidelines prescribe a specific number of new 24-inch box trees to be planted per lot. Additionally, the guidelines indicate all hardscape elements should be carefully planned in conjunction with the site and landscaping to integrate aesthetically with the architectural style and landscape design. Materials such as stone, brick, exposed aggregate, stamped and/or colored concrete, and/or interlocking pavers are encouraged. The proposed landscape plan includes a variety of planting materials. The plan includes a tree/plant palette of native and non-native species that are mostly drought tolerant, as well as hardscape features, including a decorative brick and black basalt gravel driveway and entry walkway, decorative patio, and decorative stepping pads to complement the brick wainscoting on the proposed residence. The architectural design guidelines require a minimum of 22 new 24-inch box size trees on the subject lot. The proposed landscape plan includes a total of 23 new trees throughout the site, all 24-inch box size. No existing trees are proposed for removal or will be affected by the project. Staff believes the proposed landscape plan will provide adequate landscaping for the site, as required by the architectural design guidelines. The combination of plant materials and hardscape will add interest to the site and will also soften the appearance of the home from the surrounding parcels.
