SITE DESCRIPTION The existing site consists of two (2) parcels totaling approximately 4.2 acres located at the west terminus of Rose Avenue (APN Nos. 946-3475-007 and 946-3477-002). The site is bounded on the east by new developments of single-family homes, on the south by the Alameda County Fairgrounds, on the west by under-utilized ranch lands, and on the north by the Arroyo Del Valle, a controlled release storm water channel. The two parcels are currently occupied by two aging ranch houses and their various out buildings, all ranging from poor to very poor condition. The northerly portion of the site has trees and shrubs adjacent to the Arroyo Del Valle. The site generally has flat terrain with slopes ranging from zero (0) to two (2) percent falling to the north, excepting the embankment slope of the Arroyo and the grade changes from the easterly boundary. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant requests a rezoning of 4.2:t gross acres from Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Agriculture (A) to a Planned Unit Development - Medium Density Residential (PUD-MDR) Zoning District, and approval for a Planned Unit Development plan to allow eleven (II) buildable parcels ranging from 10,000 square feet to 13,000 square feet, two (2) remainder parcels, and design guidelines for a single-family detached custom home on Lot 9. The development would be built at a gross density of 2.62 dwelling units per acre and a net density of 2.92 units per acre (DUA). This DUA is at the lowest end of the two (2) to eight (8) DUA allowed based on the General Plan Medium Density Residential land use designation and matches the density of prior subdivisions approved adjacent to this project site. Although submitted as a PUD development, the proposed project adheres to the setback standards of adjacent and nearby subdivisions. The proposed project will initially be comprised often new homes, built in accordance with the representative architectural drawings submitted with this application. The eleventh new home site, located on Lot 9, is proposed to be held by the owner/developer for the development of a future custom home after the completion of the initial project. This custom home shall be designed, approved, and built in compliance with 'Development Guidelines' and will return to the Planning Commission for review and approval through the design review process. There are two remainder parcels: (I) a strip of land for the purposes of the public trail, and (2) an irrevocable offer of dedication to Zone 7 for the Arroyo Del Valle. Table I below summarizes the proposed lot sizes, house plan, proposed dwelling unit size, and floor area ratio (FAR) for each lot. Please refer to the plans contained in Exhibit A (Attachment I).
