ALTERNATIVES As described above, it is staffs recommendation that the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolution in Exhibit A recommending the City Council deny the applications based on the findings outlined in the resolution and analysis in this Agenda Report. However, the following alternatives may be considered by the Planning Commission: 1. Recommend the City Council approve a 4-lot residential development: i.e.3 lots in the northern portion approximately 1.01-acre portion of the site fronting Sycamore Creek Way and one lot in the southern approximately 2.27-acre portion of the site containing the existing residence. This was the version of the project generally supported by the Planning Commission at the July 2018 work session. Should the Planning Commission support this alternative of a 4-lot development, staff would request the item be continued, with direction to the applicant to revise and re- submit for a 4-lot PUD development plan with design guidelines governing the development of the project reflecting the revised plan, for which a resolution for approval and appropriate conditions would be drafted. Should the Planning Commission select this alternative, staff would request that direction be provided as to the extent and of development that should be allowed within the southwest portion of the site (i.e. if it would be acceptable to allow for construction of a new single-family residence within a similar proposed building envelope), assuming the existing single- family home would be removed at such time. This alternative should include the prohibition of further subdivision of the southern approximately 2.27-acre portion of the site that contains the existing residence. A 4-lot subdivision (parcel map) is typically reviewed and approved by the Staff Review Board, a decision-making body comprised of representatives from each City Departments. Thus, a 4-lot parcel map would not be returned to the Planning Commission for a decision, and instead would be approved at the staff level, based on its conformance to the approved PUD plan. 2. Recommend the City Council approve the 5-lot development as currently proposed by the applicant. Should the Planning Commission support this alternative, staff would request that the item be continued, with direction to staff to prepare a resolution including the necessary findings and draft conditions of approval for the project, upon which the Planning Commission would take action at a subsequent meeting. Among these alternatives, staff is most supportive of Alternative 1, a 4-lot project, since it is the next most consistent with the existing Specific Plan, and with some rationale to support an additional lot along Sycamore Creek Way to infill this area with development similar to that found in the adjacent Bridle Creek Development, alongside the other factors listed on Page 15 of this staff report .

As noted earlier, staff does not support the proposed five-lot residential development, and thus does not support the Vesting Tentative Map as proposed. However, should the Planning Commission support a version of the PUD that would increase the allowable density on this project site, a conforming Vesting Tentative Map (for 5 lots), or Parcel Map (for 4 or fewer lots) could also be recommended for approval, subject to the necessary conditions of approval.
