BACKGROUND/HISTORY
<br /> North Sycamore Specific Plan
<br /> In June 1992, the City Council adopted the NSSP, which guides future development in the
<br /> 135-acre specific plan area. The NSSP includes residential, agricultural, and office land uses.
<br /> The project site, which contains an existing residence, is identified as Lot 24 in the NSSP, and
<br /> is designated PUD-A, which requires a minimum lot size of one acre. Figure 1 shows the
<br /> project site location within the NSSP area.

<br /> Site and Area Description
<br /> The project site abuts Sycamore Road on the south side and Sycamore Creek Way on the
<br /> north side. The site is irregular in shape and is approximately 3.28-acres in area. Sycamore
<br /> Creek bisects the existing parcel in an east-west direction. The site presently includes a
<br /> single-family home, with a detached garage and two outbuildings, located towards the
<br /> southeast portion of the property. Access to the existing home is provided by a 15-foot wide
<br /> driveway from Sycamore Road. This driveway crosses a wooden bridge over the creek before
<br /> it reaches the existing residence. There are a number of mature trees on the property including
<br /> native valley oak, sycamore, and California black walnut trees; these are generally located in
<br /> the southern portion of the site and adjacent to the creek. Non-native trees including
<br /> eucalyptus, acacia and other non-native species, are also located on site, and a variety of
<br /> shrubs, grasses, and groundcover surround the existing home.
<br /> A 25-foot wide existing Public Utility Easement, Transmission Pipeline and Access Road
<br /> Easement, known as Dale Way, runs north-south along the western edge of the property
<br /> between Sycamore Creek Way and Sycamore Road. An existing 12-foot wide multi-use public
<br /> trail extends from the west, along Sycamore Creek, and terminates at Dale Way.
<br /> The project site is bordered on the west side by the Bridle Creek (Greenbriar) and Sycamore
<br /> Heights (Summerhill Homes) subdivisions; on the north side by the Sycamore Heights
<br /> development; on the east by Sycamore Heights and the Jensen property at 994 Sycamore
<br /> Road (formerly Carlson property); and on the south by the Jensen property and an existing
