PUD-133, Saravana Chilla Workshop to review and receive comments on an application for Planned Unit Development approval to demolish an existing home and construct three new detached single-family homes and related improvements at 3987 Stanley Boulevard. Zoning for the property is PUD-HDR (Planned Unit Development — High Density Residential) District. Associate Planner Jennifer Hagen presented the specifics of the item in the Agenda Report. Commissioner Pace inquired about the renderings, proposed height and color scheme. Ms. Hagen stated there are attached townhomes to the west which are all two stories and 25 feet in height. Staff is still working with the applicant on the color scheme which will eventually be consistent with what is in the area, and the applicant will have a final color and materials board for the final Commission meeting as well as conditions of approval that require the final colors painted on site to be reviewed and approved by the staff at the time of construction. Commissioner Brown referenced the driveway orientation and asked if it was to preserve the Valley Oak tree. He then inquired about Lot 1 not conforming to the design guidelines for the downtown. Ms. Hagen responded that it was important to retain the Valley Oak tree. Also, staff would prefer a wrap-around porch on Lot 1 for a better-defined elevation. Staff and the design guidelines encourage the home and front door to face the street and look more like a front facing home, and staff is looking to the Commission for comment. Commissioner Pace asked what the purpose was for orienting the front door to face Stanley Boulevard. Mr. Beaudin responded that per the City's design guidelines, the front door should be oriented towards the street or public right-of-way to denote the front of the house. Commissioner Pace inquired about the front door on the townhomes and asked whether they face the street or the courtyard. Ms. Hagen responded that since the townhomes were not a detached single-family home product, but are three to four unit attached townhomes, she did not believe they face the front. In addition, the townhomes are set back further at 25 feet from the street versus 18 feet as with this project, and they all face the interior courtyard. Mr. Beaudin added that it is site specific and he thinks the grade changes and orientation of the building offer flexibility. Commissioner Ritter inquired whether the City has a color palette as a standard. Ms. Hagen responded no; the City does not. Commissioner Ritter asked if the City has a definition of massing.
