L. VISUAL RESOURCES <br /> <br />The following site development standards and design guidelines address the visual quality of develop- <br />merit that is paired by the Specific Plan: <br /> <br /> Land Use Specific Visual Resource Protections* <br />1. PUD-Medium Density Requires visual analysis to evaluate the potential impacts of devel- <br /> Residential District opment on the outlying community in northwest Pleaton. <br /> (Spotorno Upper Valley) Timing: In conjunction with determination of site development <br /> standards. <br />2-3. P~L~'W De~t;i~Y 'Site development";i;~ia~ds in the Specific Plan establish protection <br /> Residential District for view corridors from the southern Alisal Street area. <br /> (Spotorno Upper Valley Design guidelines require design of Golf Course homes to enhance <br /> and Golf Course the view of the Golf Course area from the Bypass Road. <br /> Properties Housing Areas) <br /> <br />4. PUD-Semi-Rural Density Site development standards in the Specific Plan establish protection <br /> Residential District for view corridors applicable to Lots 98, 99, and 100 and other lots <br /> (Greater Happy Valley) near Lot 98. <br /> <br /> Design guidelines include the objective of minimizing the visual <br /> prominence of homes; guidelines include requirements applicable to <br /> grading, architecture, and landscaping. <br />5.
