being LDR, consistent with the rest of the lots along Sycamore Creek Way. She was originally going to support 15,000 square feet but was also flexible and asked that the design look nice and consistent, and for the Commission to receive visual graphics of what it will look like with the fence lines. She supported lots in the 14,000 to 15,000-foot range. Regarding what to do with the lots along Sycamore Road, she was not sure but was open to two lots or one lot. To answer this question, she needs to see where the building pads would end up. Her top priority on Sycamore Road is that she did not want it to turn into the look of the Greenbriar Homes which removes the rural feeling, and which for these homes is critical in the NSSP. n. She personally thinks the house for Lot 1 was going to look like the houses she does not like that are on the west side. If this is the case, she was not inclined to have this happen. The solution potentially could be one lot, changing the setbacks, or splitting the land in some other way. The other piece is where the driveway access is for the home on Lot 1 , which the applicant was thinking would be from Dale Road. When meeting with the applicant she indicated that although that was their preferred access, she would not want this because Dale Road is supposed to be access for pedestrians and bikes. To have a driveway off the trail defeats its purpose. Regarding the trail, she was in support of staff's recommendations regarding width, suggested there is work to do about deciding on what materials to use, and that there needed to be consideration for the trail to be useful for both road bikes as well as pedestrians. Dale Road is one of the main cut-throughs between Sycamore Creek Way and Sycamore Road for road bicyclists and they use this to get out to Foothill Road. She also agrees with Commissioner Brown that there is some vision as to where the trail would end up going as it leaves the property and goes towards Spotorno and the golf course. She would hope that trail is more off the road so it is safer over time. Chair Nagler voiced support of the amendment to create lots 3, 4 and 5. If they could stay with the precedence of the guidelines of 15,000 square feet it would be preferable but he agrees with fellow Commissioners that it should not end up being illogical either. He would encourage staff to work with the applicant on that question. Ms. Clark noted that the lot size could be considered as an average across the three lots of 15,000-feet, which could allow for a transition from a smaller lot at one end to a larger lot on the other. Chair Nagler agreed this would stay with the intent. Regarding the question on what happens on lots 3, 4 and 5 he feels strongly that the primary reason the Commission is supportive of this is that they conform to the neighborhood; that the architecture, FAR, setbacks, etc. would be made clear in the design guidelines so any future builders understand what they are getting into with those lots. On lots 1 and 2, Chair Nagler thinks it is a legitimate question as to whether there should be one or two lots there. His thoughts have to do a lot with what that area of town looks like and asked to maintain that aesthetic. He also appreciates that the more houses they can build on this 3 acres, the better it is for the land owner financially.
