THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT 204 KOTTINGER DRIVE. PROPERTY OWNERS: Steve Maestas and Mike Carey GENERAL PLAN: High Density Residential -Greater than 8 dwelling units per gross acre ZONING: RM-4,000 SUMMARY The project would facilitate the subdivision of an existing parcel to allow the two existing homes to be located on separate legal lots. Staff is recommending approval subject to the site development standards for height, and Floor Area Ratio (FAR) consistent with those applicable to the R-1-6,500 district with minor modifications to the setback requirements as provided in Exhibit B. Any future modification to the existing structures would be subject to these restrictions and also would be subject to the Planning Design Review process. The Planning Commission recommends a more conservative approach: limiting the height of future development to that of the existing structures, a more restrictive FAR, and a requirement that any additions to or replacement of the homes automatically require Planning Commission review. The applicants object to the Planning Commission's recommendation with regard to the limited FAR and the height restrictions. The neighboring property owners have concerns regarding two-story homes being built and parking issues. See the Planning Commission section of this report for additional information. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION By a vote of 4 to 1, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the project, subject to the modified conditions of approval shown in Attachment 2. See the Planning Commission section of this report for additional information.
