MATTERS CONTINUED FOR DECISION There were none. 6. PUBLIC HEARINGS a. PUD-98-02, Albert William Eperson Comaany, Inc. Applicant for a Planned Unit Development rezoning and development plan approval for three single-family residential lots located at 4264 First Street. Zoning for the property is RM-2500 (Multiple Family Residential, 2,500 square-foot lot/per unit) District. Also consider the negative declaration prepared for the project. --- Jerry Iserson presented the staff report and described the location and site for the proposed project as well as the project previously approved for the site. In addition, he described the current zoning requirements and stated that the applicant's PUD rezoning request to the PUD-HDR (Planned Unit Residential -High Density Residential) would be consistent with high density zoning and would give the applicant more flexibility in terms of site design relating to shared driveways and reduced setbacks which, in turn, would allow for lazger, more private yards, more pazking and more landscaped open space. He further stated that the applicant has made this rezoning request because he feels the development of three homes instead of condominiums would be more consistent with development in the area. Mr. Iserson also described the lot sizes ranging from 4,300 squae feet to 5,400 squae feet. The same 2,560 square foot home would be constructed on each lot, although there would be slight differences in the floor plan, mainly due to the side-entry gazages and front porch elements. The applicant is proposing to landscape all azeas of the site visible from the street, and the individual homeowners would be responsible for landscaping their reaz yazds. Mr. Iserson stated that the proposed application is consistent with the General Plan High Density Residential land use designation as well as with the neighborhood Downtown azea. He pointed out that under the current zoning the applicant could construct six units on the site, but has chosen the lower density of three units. _ In addition, Mr. Iserson reported that there have been numerous planning constraints on the parcel. Since the site has considerable frontage along both First Street and Kottinger Drive, there are Planning Commission Minutes Page 2 May 27, 1998
