II. All fencing on the lot shall be limited to open-style corral fencing. Wire mesh may be added to the fence for access control. III. Development standards for an accessory structure shall follow those that are required for R- 1-20,000 zoning district. The proposed PUD site development standards meet the Specific Plan standards. The proposed house is oriented in a manner consistent with the existing home sighting and would have contin- ued limited visibility from other off-site locations. The proposed project exceeds the proposed standards and is appropriate for this low-density residential development. Permitted and Conditional Uses The proposed PUD is subject to the permitted and conditional uses of the Residential Designa- tion of the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan. The permitted and conditionally permitted uses are outlined in the conditions of approval with two minor modifications. Staff has clarified the limit to the number of domestic animals/pets that are permitted and provided for additional animals/pets to be reviewed under the conditionally permitted section. Additionally, staff has re-categorized the second living unit use from the conditionally permitted section to the permit- ted section to be consistent with recent state legislation. Design Review The Specific Plan requires that homes on the lots zoned Low-Density Residential District in Su- barea 1 to have traditional style architecture. The proposed home will compliment and blend with the existing neighborhoods and the Specific Plan area concept of rural residential with a vineyard emphasis. The proposed residence is finely detailed with stone veneer on the entry to create an earthy ele- ment to the linear residence. The proposed wood carriage doors on the garage bays provide a soft relief for an otherwise expansive elevation. The dormers, roof spires, and the divided win- dow grids are details that support a design with integrity and a higher level of quality. The use of accent materials and other architectural articulations have made the proposed building attrac- tive and correspond to architectural features of the other homes in the nearby subdivisions. Staff does have a concern with the roofing material that is being proposed. The applicant is pro- posing concrete roof tiles, which staff feels is inconsistent with the design components of the Specific Plan. Staff recommends a change to the roofing material to a flat slate tile. A flat slate tile would be in keeping with the overall design quality of the proposed residence and would be more compatible with the surroundings. The proposed front facade of the residence has articulated wall lines to reduce the perceived building mass and volume. The proposed exterior colors are brown, tan, and green help the pro- posed structure to fit in with the natural environment.
