RECOMMENDATION 1. Find that the proposed PUD development plan is consistent with the General Plan and purposes of the PUD ordinance; 2. Make the Planned Unit Development findings as identified in the attached Planning Commission staff report; and, 3. Introduce the attached draft ordinance approving Case PUD-73, subject to the conditions of approval (Attachment 1, Exhibit B). FINANCIAL STATEMENT The project is an infill subdivision involving minor on-site improvements to be paid for by the property owner. An area of right-of-way dedication along Kottinger Drive in front of the property will be provided to the City at no charge. The creation of the new lot will generate property taxes to be used to provide services, such as police, fire, etc. This project will, therefore, have no adverse fiscal impact on the City. BACKGROUND The project site is an approximately 9,571-square-foot (0.22-acre) lot situated at the junction of Kottinger Drive and Second Street. The property is essentially flat with a two existing residences with a joint access driveway off of Kottinger Drive. The subject property is not located within the Downtown Specific Plan Area or the Core Overlay District but is adjacent to these area boundaries. The existing homes are approximately 1,026 square feet and 885 square feet in size with no covered parking provided on-site. The front house was constructed in 1895 and is, therefore, on the City's list of Landmark Quality Buildings. The back house was constructed in 1948 and is not on the list. Staff does not consider either home to be architecturally significant. In 1991, PUD 91-9 was approved to divide the easterly neighboring parcel of approximately 7,110 square feet into two lots with areas of 4,053 and 3,057 square feet. The existing residence (945 square feet) was renovated on one lot, and a new 845-square-foot home was constructed on the new lot. In 1995, PUD 95-1 was approved to divide the westerly neighboring parcel of approximately 10,378 square feet into two parcels with areas of 4,132 and 6,246 square feet. The existing residence was renovated on one lot (900 square feet), and a new residence (1,500 square feet) and carport were constructed on the other lot. The proposed PUD plan is similar to both PUD-91-9 and PUD 95-1 in that the subject lot proposes to create two parcels of similar square footages, retain the O=PUD-95-1 0= Project Site 0= PUD-91-9 Page 2 of 6
