<br />PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON <br /> <br />ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. PC-96-77 <br /> <br />RESOLUTION APPROVING THE APPLICATION OF JULIAN AND NANCY <br />RICCOMINI FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND DESIGN REVIEW <br />APPROVAL, AS FILED UNDER CASE UP-96-62/Z-96-218 <br /> <br />WHEREAS, Julian and Nancy Riccomini has applied for a conditional use permit and design <br />review approval to construct a single-story, detached, 768 square foot secondary <br />unit in the rear yard of an existing residence located at 484 Adams Way; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, zoning for the property is R-I-6,500 (Single-Family Residential) District; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, at their duly noticed public hearing of October 23, 1996, the Planning <br />Commission considered all public testimony, relevant exhibits, and <br />recommendations of the City staff concerning this application; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings: <br /> <br />A. The proposed location of the conditional use is in accordance with the <br />objectives of the zoning ordinance and the purpose of the district in which <br />the site is located. <br /> <br />The request to establish a detached secondary unit on the site conforms <br />with the objectives and purposes of the zoning ordinance. The proposal <br />would maintain the existing single-family character because the secondary <br />unit has been designed to integrate with the existing dwelling. A <br />recommended condition of approval requires that either the primary <br />residence or the secondary unit be owner-occupied and that a maximum of <br />two adults be allowed to reside in the secondary unit (plus any children) to <br />maintain a low density and traffic volume for the neighborhood. <br /> <br />B. The proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under <br />which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the <br />public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to the properties or <br />improvements in the vicinity. <br /> <br />Any additional trips from the secondary unit would be considered minimal <br />and there appears to be ample capacity on the surrounding streets for the <br />approximately 4-6 trips/day which can be expected to be generated by the <br />secondary unit. An additional parking space for the secondary unit would <br />be located at the end of the existing driveway and designed so as not to <br />impede the use of the two existing parking spaces within the existing <br />garage by the residents of the principal structure. <br />
