<br /> The proposed residence on Parcel A is set closer to the rear of the lot. The proposed siting
<br /> allows for a large front setback and generous side and rear setbacks, which are consistent with
<br /> the R-1-20,000 zoning District in Table 1. The large setbacks are also consistent with the
<br /> existing residential streetscape and would substantially mitigate the mass and scale of the
<br /> proposed residence when viewed from Dennis Drive. Extensive site improvements such as
<br /> new driveway, walkways, porch, trellises, and front landscaping are proposed. The site
<br /> improvements and proposed outdoor spaces relate well to the neighborhood and are sensitive
<br /> to the site's natural features including the existing vegetation.
<br /> As shown on the site plan in Exhibit B, the proposed house on Parcel A conforms to the
<br /> development standards in Table 1. The existing home on Parcel B conforms to the
<br /> recommended development standards; however, there are existing accessory structures on
<br /> Parcel B which do not conform to the side yard setback requirements. Those accessory
<br /> structures are considered legal non-conforming. Future development on parcel B would be
<br /> required to adhere to the development standards established with the PUD.
<br /> The Pleasanton Municipal Code does not address guest parking within single-family
<br /> developments, but the City encourages, and often requires, on-site guest parking for single-
<br /> family projects when there is not on-street parking provided within the project, as is the case
<br /> here. The applicant is proposing a three-car garage and includes a generous driveway apron
<br /> in front of the garage, 85 feet in length which can accommodate an additional four cars, to be
<br /> used by the residents or guests of the home. Overall, staff finds the development standards for
<br /> the project would complement the surrounding residential neighborhood. In addition, the site
<br /> layout has been designed to be functional, e.g. providing sufficient maneuvering space for
<br /> vehicles, and accommodating sufficient room for landscaping; and sensitive to adjacent
<br /> residential properties.
<br /> Building Design
<br /> The proposed residence is a traditionally inspired design. The structure's design and styling
<br /> include proportions, materials, detailing, and colors of high quality that are aesthetically
<br /> pleasing, and are harmonious with and complement the character of the neighborhood. The
<br /> applicant has provided relief to the massing through articulation, roof forms, and window
<br /> 2 Garage area over 600 square feet will be counted in the FAR.
