The site is accessed off of Pietronave Lane, which comes north off of Vineyard Avenue just west of the intersection with Old Vineyard. Pietronave Lane is a 25-foot wide, as- phalt paved easement that leads south past the project site to two other similarly sized configured parcels (lots 16 and 17 in the Specific Plan). To the west of Pietronave and the project site is a 20-acre former landfill that is designated as a Community Park in the Specific Plan. There is also a landfill area of approximately 8,000 square-feet (.2 acres) on the southwest corner of the subject site that has been designated as open space in the Specific Plan. "The boundaries of this landfill have been determined by a geotechnical en- gineering investigation. To the east of the project site is the 50-acre Berlogar parcel that is currently being developed. "I'he site has long-range views to Mount Diablo and the Coastal Range to the northwest, and rolling hills to the south and east. It has medium range views to the Shadow Cliffs Regional Park and the concrete plant and quarry to the northeast. Recently approved and/or built subdivisions, Apperson Ridge and the Miller Subdivision, are located to the east and west. The site is visible trom the intersection of the Vineyard Avenue trail and Pietronave Lane and also from Old Vineyard Avenue. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed PUD development plan is to demolish an existing 2,125 square foot mid- century ranch home; subdivide the existing property into three parcels: Parcel A is 63,000 square Feet (1.45 acre), Parcel B is 20,000 square feet (.46 acres), and Parcel C is 30,000 square feet (.69 acre); to construct a custom home on each parcel and an accessory struc- ture on Parcel A. Access to the homes will be from a private shared driveway intersecting with Pietronave Lane. The proposed residence on Parcel A is a 3,722-square-foot single-story home with a semi-detached 924-square-foot garage and pool house with a 440-square-foot second- story element. "1'he house is oriented towards the west with the front entrance facing Pietronave Lane. The house is of craftsman-type architecture with stained wood shingle siding. The existing heritage Oak tree that will be located on Parcel A will remain and serve as the anchor for a private landscaped pool and recreation area. Just east of the old Oak, the applicant proposes to build an approximately 1,189 square-foot, 25-foot tall ac- cessory structure to be used as a workshop. The workshop, designed to resemble a barn, is proposed to be of wood shingle siding with a sandstone stain. The proposed floor area ratio (FAR) for Parcel A is 9%. Please note the photo-simulations attached in Exhibit C depict a previous rendition of the workshop. The current design, as proposed, is accu- rately shown in the elevation drawings found in Exhibit A. The home on Parcel B is of a typical farmhouse style with horizontal wood siding. The two-story house is approximately 2,947 square feet with asemi-detached 528-square-foot garage. The house is oriented to the north with the front entrance facing the shared-access driveway. The proposed FAR for Parcel B is 15.3%. Item 5.6., PUD-h0 Pnge 3 of 10 • February I d, 2007
