She stated that she could not <br />~ support having all five houses above the 540-foot elevation to be two stories without first <br />seeing the photo montage and the design guidelines for the homes. She added that she <br />also had difficulty in making the finding that the PUD is consistent with the Vineyazd <br />Avenue Corridor Specific Plan. <br />Commissioner Blank stated that he was not concerned about whether the houses aze one <br />or two stories as long as there are no visual impacts, the neighbors aze contented, and <br />there aze no environmental impacts. He noted that the designs are coming back to the <br />Commission and that allowing for two-story homes does not mean that the Commission <br />will have to approve the two-story designs if these aze found to be inconsistent with the <br />environment or if views impacts aze present. <br />Commissioner O'Connor noted that a maximum floor azea ratio is allowed for each of the <br />homes, and the 20 percent to be included in the second story, which would be only two <br />feet higher, would be deducted from the azea of the pad itself, thus holding down the size <br />of the footprint and consequently taking up less of the environment. <br /> <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, May 24, 2006 Page 18 of 34 <br />
