She stated that she could not support having all <br />five houses above the 540-foot elevation to be two stories without first seeing the photo montage <br />and the design guidelines for the homes. She added that she also had difficulty in making the <br />finding that the PUD is consistent with the Vineyard A venue Corridor Specific Plan. <br /> <br />Commissioner Blank stated that he was not concerned about whether the houses are one or two <br />stories as long as there are no visual impacts, the neighbors are contented, and there are no <br />environmental impacts. He noted that the designs are coming back to the Commission and that <br />allowing for two-story homes does not mean that the Commission will have to approve the <br />two-story designs if these are found to be inconsistent with the environment or if views impacts <br />are present. <br /> <br />Commissioner O'Connor noted that a maximum floor area ratio is allowed for each ofthe <br />homes, and the 20 percent to be included in the second story, which would be only two feet <br />higher, would be deducted from the area ofthe pad itself, thus holding down the size of the <br />footprint and consequently taking up less of the environment. <br /> <br />ROLL CALL VOTE: <br /> <br />AYES: <br />NOES: <br />ABSTAIN: <br />RECUSED: <br />ABSENT: <br /> <br />Commissioners Arkin, Blank, O'Connor, and Olson. <br />Commissioner Fox. <br />None. <br />None. <br />Commissioner Pearce. <br /> <br />DRAFT EXCERPTS: PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, May 24, 2006 <br /> <br />Page 8 of9 <br />
