The neighboring properties <br /> include single- and multi-family homes and the Alameda County Fairgrounds. Adding <br /> infill residential units to a site with an existing single-family home complements the <br /> neighborhood. The Commission also considered the parking on-site and determined <br /> the proposed parking meets the standards of the respective zoning districts. <br /> The adjacent buildings to the subject lot are one- and two-story buildings. The <br /> proposed two- story residential buildings will be mostly screened from view with <br /> visibility along Rose Avenue. While visible from neighboring properties, the proposed <br /> buildings have massing that is consistent with neighboring structures and are <br /> designed to minimize their scale through their building design (i.e., articulation such <br /> as building insets, color and material, and architectural detailing). The proposed <br /> design includes architectural detailing consistent with the existing building on-site <br /> (e.g., uses matching materials and architectural style). As such, the Planning <br /> Commission finds the project has an appropriate relationship to its site, the <br /> streetscape, and public view. <br /> As noted, the new buildings incorporate similar design elements to the existing <br /> building on-site. The project design also considers function in the design (e.g., <br /> accounts for trash cans and mechanical equipment). As such, the Planning <br /> Commission finds the proposal to be positive and appropriate for site, landscaping, <br /> and building design and finishes expected for new development within the Downtown <br /> and the city. <br /> The Planning Commission concludes the required Design Criteria can be made to <br /> approve the subject application, as conditioned. <br />he single-family residential streetscape; <br /> P19-0410, 715 Rose Avenue Planning Commission <br /> 8of11 <br />y, especially for residential.
