<br />PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON <br /> <br />ALAMEDA COONTY, CALIFORNIA <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. PC-91-109 <br /> <br />RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AS FILED UNDER <br />CASE UP-91-80 FOR RICHARD DAVIS <br /> <br />WHEREAS, Richard Davis has applied for a conditional use permit to <br />construct a second unit within a portion of an existing <br />detached garage located at 2283 Sea Eagle Court; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, zoning for the property is R-1-6,500 Single-family <br />Residential District; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, at their duly noticed public hearing of December l.1, <br />l.991, the Planning commission considered all public <br />testimony, relevant exhibits and recommendations of the <br />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 <br />accordance with the objectives of the zoning <br />ordinance and the purpose of the district in which <br />the site is located. <br /> <br />The request to establish a secondary unit in a <br />single-family residential district conforms with <br />the objectives of the Zoning Ordinance, and to the <br />purpose of the single-family residential district. <br />Single family residential districts are intended to <br />preserve lower population densities than <br />mUlti-family residential districts, and special <br />consideration should be given to issues which may <br />affect privacy, traffic volumes and design. <br /> <br />The proposed second unit within the existing <br />detached garage on this 13,000 sq. ft. parcel will <br />meet the setbacks required for habitable accessory <br />structures in the R-1-6,500 district, and the <br />residential use of this structure will not <br />noticeably increase the density of the <br />neighborhood. The standard size of parcels in <br />R-1-6,500 district is 6,500 sq. ft. per single <br />family residence. The subject parcel exceeds this <br />minimum lot area by an additional 6,500 square <br />feet. It is important to limit the occupancy of <br />the secondary unit to two adult occupants or one <br />adult occupant with children to maintain a low <br />density and traffic volume for the neighborhood. <br />Therefore, this finding can be made, if conditioned <br />as below. <br />
