The significant interest shown in the lots sales and pending sales is the impetus for the appli- cants' request in that the 34 custom homes will be submitted consecutively, creating a significant review process. The applicant believes that the proposed design guidelines would streamline the review process based on the Zoning Administrator's review and approval, and that the design standards would be more clearly communicated to the lot buyers. SITE DESCRIPTION The subject site is located adjacent to the fairways of the Callippe Preserve Golf Course in the Happy Valley Specific Plan area. Lots 1 through 10 are reached from Westbridge Lane, Lots 11 through 33 are reached from Clubhouse Drive, and Lot 34 is reached from an internal driveway through the golf course. Lots "A" through "C" belong to the Manning, Jensen, and Jordan fami- lies, the previous owners of the golf course property, and would be the sites for their homes. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicants propose to: 1. Further develop the previously approved guidelines - ten pages of type-written text - into two volumes with extensive diagrams, photographs, and drawings to provide clear, con- cise direction of the individual sites' constraints and opportunities and of the four architec- tural types proposed for the Mariposa Ranch development. These styles include "Crafts- man", "Ranch Hacienda", "Prairie/Carmel", and "Western Farmhouse". 2. Delegate the design review approval for these homes to the Zoning Administrator follow- ing standard City procedures, with additional procedures pertaining to the notification provided to the Planning Commission. As a result of the Planning Commission's recommendation, the proposed project now includes the following conditioned items: 1. The sides of the structures facing the golf course fairways should be designed to address safety issues that might arise from the proximity of the golf course, e.g., using tempered glass in the windows that may be hit by golf balls. 2. Roof-mounted photovoltaic systems should be physically and visually integrated with the structure's roof materials and design, e.g., surface mounted, low profile, etc. 3. Tree planting for the golf course homes should be increased to one tree per 750 square feet of lot area. 4. Safety nets to protect the houses from the proximity of the golf course would not be al- lowed. SR 05:092 Page 3 of 8
