ground floor so that they do not cantilever over the rear elevation (south); and 3) noted that the shared property line of the Shell gas station is not accurate. Mr. Safreno informed the applicant that the subject site has approximately 2-feet to gain if the line were readjusted. Staff has added a condition of approval stating that a survey shall be conducted of the shared property line to ensure its accuracy. The applicant also provided staff with 13 letters of support for the project on October 4; which can be found in Exhibit E. Staff notes that another letter of support for the project was provided by Robert Byrd prior to noticing the project; which is also in Exhibit E. As previously stated, because the plans were revised after noticing was sent, the unit sizes are larger than what is reflected on the noticing. However, staff has not received any comments or letters of opposition regarding the project. PUD CONSIDERATIONS The Zoning Ordinance of the Municipal Code sets forth purposes of the Planned Unit Development District and "considerations" to be addressed when reviewing a PUD development plan. 1. Whether the plan is in the best interest of the public health, safety and general welfare: All on-site infrastructures shall be installed by the project developer with connections to municipal systems in order to serve the site. Adequate storm drain, sanitary sewer, and water service utilities are present near the development and are sufficient to serve the new buildings. Public street access is provided to all structures for police, fire, and other emergency response vehicles. The buildings are designed to meet the requirements of the Building Code and other applicable City codes. The applicants would install ample landscaping as part of the project. Therefore, as conditioned, staff believes that the proposed plan is in the best interest of the public health, safety, and general welfare, and that this finding can be made. 2. Whether the plan is consistent with the City's General Plan: The proposed project's land use, High Density Residential, conforms to the "High Density Residential" Land Use Element designation for the project site. The General Plan land use designation for the subject site is High Density Residential (greater than eight dwelling units per gross acre). The proposed project, with 5 units on approximately .30 acres for a density of 2.4 units per acre, would be consistent with this General Plan designation. The project would also be consistent with the following General Plan policy in the Housing Element, "at PUD-64, 4238 First Street LLC Planning Commission Page 10 of 13
