•Internal Streets: Garages. The objective standards indicate that individual residential unit garages are prohibited from fronting on internal streets (but allow entries to common parking facilities). •Alleys: Minimum width. The standards propose to establish a minimum 28-foot depth for alleys and require four-foot planting strips on either side of the alley, adjacent to the garage (the four-foot planting strips are allowed to encroach into the 28-foot-wide alley). •Paseos. Minimum width. Instead of indicating that paseos should be 25 to 30 feet wide (building to building) as is the case in the 2012 Housing OG, the objective standards indicate that paseos must be at least one third the sum of the tallest building heights bordering each paseo, with a minimum width of 22 feet and a maximum width of 35 feet. •Paseos: Paving area. The standards propose that a minimum of 20 percent of the paved area of a paseo be improved with a combination of paving, shading structures, or seating. •Vehicular Parking: Screening. The objective standards indicate that vehicular parking that is proposed on grade adjacent to public streets, internal streets, paseos, or open space areas, must be screened by a seven-foot planting strip, a solid wall no more than four feet in height, or trees planted at an average spacing of 25 feet on center, combined with a dense hedge or ornamental grasses. Secondly, the standards indicate that no more than 25 percent of site frontage abutting a public street, internal street, paseo, or open space may be devoted to garage openings, carports, or surface parking. •Bicycle Parking: Standards. The objective standards establish bicycle parking ratios for Class 1 and Class 2 bicycle parking spaces at a rate of 0.6 bicycle spaces per unit and two spaces for each 50 residential units, respectively. •Open Space: Group usable open space dimensions and size. While the required amount of group usable open space is stipulated in Part 2 of the document, as described above, this section of the objective standards indicates that the group usable open space may be provided as one space or divided into multiple spaces, each of which shall comply with both minimum dimensions and minimum square footage areas, the particulars of which are contingent on the number of units in the development as noted in the draft document. •Open Space: Private usable open space. The standards indicate that where provided, private usable open space have a minimum unobstructed and continuous dimension of five feet and that it be located directly adjacent to unit interiors and be directly accessible from the unit. •Landscape: Natural turf areas. The standards propose to limit natural turf areas to 25 percent of the total landscape area, require that natural turf areas have a minimum dimension of 10 feet, and indicate that turf areas be sloped at less than 25 percent. •Site Lighting: Pedestrian lighting. The standards propose to require pedestrian-scaled lighting along public streets, internal streets, paseos, and common open spaces at a maximum height of 14 feet above the adjacent walking surface (compared to lighting in P20-0989, Objective Design Standards Planning Commission 9 of 14
