would be wise to require the proposed residential development to be constructed to meet applicable actions of the draft CAP 2.0. The Buildings & Energy section of draft CAP 2.0 requires a 31 percent reduction in GHG emissions by 2030. To achieve this goal, CAP 2.0 requires expanded use of renewable energy, and its action includes requiring solar power and battery storage on new construction. The current requirement under the existing CAP requires new construction to be "solar-ready." Staff has revised the language and included a condition of approval requiring new residential homes to include photovoltaic panels (PVs) and batteries to meet CAP 2.0 requirements. PUD Development Plan The project site is located in the PUD-SRDR zoning district of the HVSP. The proposed development standards are consistent with HVSP's development standards for PUD- SRDR lots, except for six lots (Lots 2-7), whose width is 165 feet, 10 feet less than the minimum stated in the HVSP. §18.68.060 of the PMC pertaining to property development standards states the following: A. In order to allow the greatest amount of flexibility in designing a project compatible with the physical features of the property, the uses intended to be developed thereon, and the objectives of this chapter, no minimum property development standards shall apply to the PUD district. The planning commission and city council shall determine appropriate amounts of landscaping, natural open space, parking, signing, distances between buildings, front yards and other development standards as are appropriate for the specific uses requested at the time of consideration of the PUD development plan required by Section 18.68.110. Said standards shall be included as conditions to any approved PUD development plan. In review of the overall site layout, lot size and configurations, this 10-foot difference (165 feet vs. 175 feet) from standard would not substantially diminish the semi-rural feel or spacious layout of these one-acre plus lots. Additionally, the overall lot pattern is consistent and logical with wider lots located when a street curves and at street corners. Staff finds the proposed site layout and development standards meet the PUD requirements and the HVSP. Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) §18.106.045.A.of the PMC pertaining to standards for detached ADUs allow new PUD proposals to include detached ADUs greater than 16 feet in height. As such, the applicant proposes a maximum height of 25 feet for a detached ADU. The applicant further proposes the setbacks for a detached ADU to be 20 feet from the rear and side property lines. Staff finds the height proposal is acceptable considering the size of the lots which would not create significant visual impacts to adjoining properties. Staff Page 12 of 18
