with colors chosen from a "historic color palette." Further heritage style is expressed <br />through the incorporation of bay windows and small front porches. The location of ga- <br />rage entries at the rear of the site, combined with the reduced front yard setback, pro- <br />duces avibrant, pedestrian-oriented atmosphere and provides a harmonious transition <br />with the commercial area across Peters Avenue. <br />Site Development Standards <br />The site development standards for the proposed development are "per the development," <br />and are outlined in the table below. Due to the intensity of development on the subject <br />site, staff has conditioned the project so that no additional development-including, but <br />not limited to, residential additions, garage additions, bay windows, porches, balconies, <br />or accessory structures-is permitted. <br />One policy of the Downtown Specific Plan is to limit building height in all residential <br />zoning districts in the Downtown (including future Planned Unit Development Districts) <br />to not more than two stories and not more than 30 feet. The proposed new homes are 34.5 <br />feet when measured from the lowest to the highest point. However, as allowed per Code, <br />from median grade to midpoint of a slanted roof, the homes measure 31.25 feet in height. <br />Staff believes the added height, as measured to the midpoint, is not only minimal, but al- <br />lows for the inclusion of covered, off-street parking for the units. By including two off- <br />street, non-tandem spaces for each new unit, the project does not impact available public <br />parking within the Downtown area along the street frontage. <br /> Plan A Plan B Plan C Plan D Existing <br />House <br />Primary Structures: <br />Front Setback (ft) 8 8 7 5 11 <br />Front Porch Encroachment (ft) 7 7 4.5 --- --- <br />Left Side Setback (ft) 2.5 2.5 2.5 0 25.75 <br />Right Side Setback (ft) 2.5 2.5 5 1.5 5 <br />Rear Setback (ft) 25 25 28 5 2.5 <br />Height~'~ (ft) 34.5 34.5 34.5 34.5 17.5 <br />FAR~z~ (%) 75.2% 76.3% 86.5% 96.6% 32.5% <br />Accessory Structures• No Class I or Class II Accessory Structures are <br />Allowed <br />(1) Height is measured tiom the lowest point to the highest point Tor any structure witnin the ruli. <br />(2) FAR is based on lot size currently submitted and may be altered slightly based on actual lot sizes as recorded in <br />he final tract map. <br />Item 6.a., PUD-55 Page 5 of 12 July 11, 2007 <br />
