Adjacent properties include the Pleasanton Plaza to the west and the recently closed Shell gas station located to the north of the subject site. There is a two-story multiple-family development and single-family detached residential units to the south and single-story to two-story multi- family homes and apartments to the east. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant proposes to rezone the subject site from RM-25 (Multiple-Family Residential- minimum 2,500 sq. ft. lot area per unit) District to PUD-HDR (Planned Unit Development-High Density Residential) District to provide more design flexibility. The proposal consists of retaining the existing home and developing four three-story single-family homes and a new detached garage. The four single-family units, whether attached or detached, would have a one car garage located on the bottom floor with an additional tandem driveway parking; which would be partially covered by the second floor deck. The second-dwelling unit, which would be located above the detached garage, would require one parking space continuously available to the occupants; in this case it would be located in the driveway of the proposed detached garage. The units would range from 1,200 to 1,400 square-feet in size, depending on if they are attached or detached, putting the floor area ratio (FAR) around 85%+/-. The maximum height will be approximately 31-feet with the garage height not exceeding 15-feet; both measured from finished grade to the top of the roof ridge. The proposed detached units offer four alternative, but complementary, designs. To keep in character with the downtown area, the applicant has indicated that the design would be similar to the houses along Second Street; which is not reflected in the elevation drawings in Exhibit A. The detached units will be staggered to break up the appearance of the buildings while the detached units would essentially keep the same front yard setback.
