shifted totally to the new neighbors. He indicated that there is a limit to what can be done with <br />respect to the impact of the use but that they had done what they could. <br />Mr. Townsend explained that the location of the solar panels is shown on the roof plan, Sheet <br />No. 5 of the house plans. He stated that the panels are not above the roofline or above the <br />30-foot height of the building but are imbedded into the roof wells that are integrated into the <br />structure. He indicated that solar panels are not reflective and actually absorb the daylight in <br />order to work. He added that the panels for the pool would not be reflective either, with a <br />dull-finished and a plastic coating. <br />Commissioner O'Connor inquired if the parapet wall on the roofline is eight feet tall. <br />Mr. Townsend confirmed that it was. He added that it would be 22 feet high to the ceiling with a <br />total of 30 feet in height. He indicated that the roof comes up on one side and sinks back down <br />on the other side in slopes such that the panels would not be visible as they are reset within the <br />structure. <br />THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. <br />Chair Blank indicated that there are three specific questions that staff would like the Commission <br />to address and that he would like to add a fourth for other general questions and comments not <br />covered by the three questions that the Commissioners may have. <br />Commissioner Pearce inquired if there were any fencing standards or open-fencing requirements <br />that need to be met such as in a Specific Plan or the PUD. Mr. Pavan replied that the site is not <br />covered by any Specific Plan; he added that he would have to check if there were any conditions <br />on the PUD with respect to fencing requirements. <br />In response to Chair Blank's inquiry if this is straight-zoned, Mr. Pavan replied that it is a PUD <br />zone that references an R-1-20,000 development standards with additional standards that are part <br />of a PUD plan. He added that this workshop focused mainly on the building, massing, and <br />location and noted that the neighbors have expressed their preference for open fencing. He <br />indicated that the fencing issue will be addressed in the staff report for the public hearing. He <br />explained that the purpose of the one wall was to enclose and screen the garage court from view <br />from Crellin Road and Gray Fox Circle in order to hide parked cars and other garage activities. <br />Ms. Decker noted that the packet for this prof ect includes the Ordinance No. 1076 that approved <br />this PUD, and Condition No. 24 provides that all fencing would be subject to the approval of the <br />Planning Department. She indicated that staff would work with the applicant and the neighbors <br />on an appropriate fence design. <br />With respect to the various drawings on the elevations, Commissioner Fox inquired if these <br />renderings needed to be combined to get a complete picture of the east elevation, and if so, <br />would it be feasible to have them. Mr. Pavan replied that the east elevation would be a <br />composite of the elevations for the tennis court and the house. He added that it would be <br />possible to have that done. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, January 9, 2008 Page 19 of 28 <br />
