Petitions in conjunction with PUS-99-02 supporting the public sidewalk be- tween Sycamore Terrace and San Carlos Way. Letters or email communications from Gail and Joel Olney (5855 San Juan Way), Jeff and Kristi May (5833 San Juan Way), Jill and Tony Battilega (5836 San Juan Way), Lan'y and Suzan Dingman (387 Sycamore Road), Linda Walton (5862 San Juan Way), Michael and Katherine Ferreira (5821 San Carlos Way), Shareef Mahdavi (5708 Hidden Creek Court), Steven Liu and Jenny Wong (5816 San Carlos Way), and Tom and Mary Greene (386 Sycamore Road). I. BACKGROUND The applicants propose a four-lot PUD development plan to allow three new, single-family homes on the subject property in addition to the one existing home in conformance to the North Sycamore Specific Plan. The approval of this PUD development plan would also create design guidelines and site development standards for the future homes on these lots in conformance to the policies of the Specific Plan. II. SUBJECT PROPERTY The subject property is a long-narrow site sloping upward from an elevation of 374 feet at Sycamore Creek Way to an elevation of 401 feet at the north property line. It is zoned PUD - LDR (Planned Unit Development - Low Density Residential) District, is covered by the North Sycamore Specific Plan (NSSP) and Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR), and was desig- nated Parcel No. 9 by the Specific Plan's "Parcel Identification Map", attached. Sycamore Creek Way, a public street, and Sycamore Terrace, a private street, provide access. Topography is characterized by low, rolling slopes with existing tree cover and the presence of Sycamore Creek, which bisects the site. The subject property is developed with one primary structure, two detached second-units, and several sheds and barns. City utilities were provided to the home on Parcel One with the con- stmction of Sycamore Creek Way. The primary and accessory structures were approved and constructed under the jurisdiction of Alameda County between 1938 and 1940. The applicant ultimately intends to demolish the existing structures and construct a new home on Parcel One. In the interim, the applicant would retain the house and one of the existing second units, would convert the other second-unit into a detached garage, and would demolish the sheds and barns. Corrals, barbed-wire fence, and an existing bus will be removed with development. A portion of the Sycamore Creek channel bisects the property in the area of the proposed Parcel Two.
