backing up from the parking spaces. Thus, if the building were moved back, the parking in the rear would either have to be eliminated or moved to the front of the site. Commissioner Kumazan stated that the project is well-designed and aesthetically pleasing and would be an attractive addition to the azea. It is appropriately sited, has sufficient front landscaping, and meets the parking requirements. He commented that he would prefer aone-foot separation between the properties rather than simply having a baze wall with azero-foot setback. He supported moving the building back to improve visibility and encouraged a solution to the pazking problem through the Traffic Committee. Commissioner Dove reiterated that he would like to add a condition ensuring that access to Diablo Auto Body would remain open. A motion was made by Commissioner Roberts, seconded by Commissioner Dove, to approve Case Z-98-129, subject to the conditions in Exhibit "B" and adding a condition that the access between the two properties remain open and unimpeded by permanent fencing, curb, or landscaping on either side.

Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7030. Dong Yu Real Estate Application to subdivide an approximately 7.7-acre site into six custom single-family residential lots in the Equus Heights subdivision located at 4100 Foothill Road. Zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development) - LDR (Low Density Residential) District. Mr. Iserson presented the staff report and provided a background for the application. He stated that in 1989, the City Council approved a PUD fora 22-lot residential development on an approximately 50-acre property formerly owned by the Yee family. In 1990, a vesting tentative tract map was approved for the 22 lots, and in 1991, a final map was recorded for asix-lot portion of the 22-lot PUD. Mr. Iserson continued that eazlier this year, the applicants requested a PUD modification for the road and lot configuration for the six lots, shifting the Equus Court access farther north on Foothill Road to coordinate its location with the entrance to the proposed Memtt project across the street. Since the original PUD was exempt from the requirements of the West Foothill Corridor Overlay District which was established after the original PUD was approved, staff used this opportunity to redesign the project to meet as many of the District policies and requirements as possible. In May of 1998, the Council approved the PUD modification for the six lots, the subject of the tentative map application being considered here. Planning Commission Minutes Page 8 June 10, 1998
