NOVEMBER 25, 2003 PAGE 3 PLANNING COMMISSION Project Address: 2817 Wagon Train Lane (APN 87113-013-011) Diamond Bar, CA 91765 Property Owner: Harshad & Raksha Shah 2817 Wagon Train Lane Diamond Bar, CA 91765 Applicant: Simon Shum S&W Development 20272 Carrey Road Walnut, CA 91789 AssocP/Lungu presented staff's report. Staff recommends Planning Commission approval of Development Review No. 2002-13(1), Findings of Fact, and conditions of approval as listed within the resolution. AssocP/Lungu responded to C/Nelson that applicants wishing to make changes to projects that have commenced need to present those changes with drawings to the Planning, Building and Engineering staff at City Hall. In this case, the Planning staff would note that these were significant changes and refer the matter back to the Planning Commission for further deliberation. If the changes were not significant, Planning staff would approve the changes and refer the matter to the Building Department with structural drawings for pian check. If the plans were found to be in order the permit would be issued and construction would continue. She did not know why the applicant did not follow that procedure in this case. Simon Shum, Applicant, said that no construction had commenced. The owner was merely exploring options for reconfiguring a certain area behind the retaining wall. The area in question was a crawl space before so he is converting the crawl space into a living area. When Building Department visited the site no improvements had been done, only exploratory demolition and new slab. The stop order involved another ongoing Wagon Train project that involved protecting the site during the winter season and as a result, the Building Department issued the stop order on all of his projects. He spoke with the Engineering Department and the matter has been resolved. C/Wei asked if Mr. Shum had approval from "The Country Estates" Homeowners Association. Mr. Shum replied not yet because most of the addition is a conversion C : _ • 11 from a basement area that was previously a crawl space. The front tower is being changed for aesthetics only and not adding square footage. Mr. Shum explained the purpose of exploratory demolition to Chair/Tye. Chair/Tye opened the public hearing. There being no one present who wished to speak on this matter, Chair/Tye closed the public hearing. Chair/Tye, C/Nelson and VC/Nolan expressed concern about whether this matter would have seen the light of day if staff had not made a visit to the site. If there is a process that needs to be followed, applicants should comply. DCM/DeStefano thanked the Commissioners for bringing this issue forward. He explained that this applicant has done a lot of business in the City and has a very good reputation with staff. It is a difficult decision for staff to determine changes to a project that are often necessary as a result of different factors and when do those factors cross the line and result in a project that has to go back to the decision-making body. He believed that this project remains basically true to the original intent. VC/Nolan moved, C/Tanaka seconded, to approve Development Review No. 2003-17 and Minor Variance No. 2003-12, Findings of Fact, and conditions of approval as listed within the resolution. Motion carried by the following Roll Call vote: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: VC/Nolan, Tanaka, Nelson, Wei, Chair/Tye NOES: COMMISSIONERS: None ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: None S. PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTSANFORMATIONAL ITEMS: C/Wei said he appreciated staff's input and Mr. Shum's cooperation with the City. C/Tanaka wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. C/Nelson thanked staff for their excellent assistance. VC/Nolan said that previously he had pointed out a neglected sign at Timber Ridge on Golden Springs Drive. He wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. NOVEMBER 25, 2003 PAGE 5 PLANNING COMMISSION 9.

Additionally, the project request includes retaining walls of varying heights with a maximum exposed height of six feet. 1 The project site is located at 2816 Crystal Ridge Road (Lot 31, Tract No. 47850) adjacent to a gated community identified as "The Country Estates". It is part of a 50 -lot subdivision approved by the City Council on June 6, 1995. The project site, a vacant, rectangular shaped lot has an existing graded pad cited for development. According to the Tract Map, the project site, approximately 28,540 square feet (pad area of 17,090 square feet), has several easements located within the front portion of the project site. These easements are related to access purposes, public utility and services and sanitary sewer. There are slopes in the front yard adjacent to the street and in the north side yard that are listed on Tract Map's revegetation/mitigation monitoring plan. The project site has a General Plan land use designation of Rural Residential (RR) Maximum 1 DU/AC and a zoning designation of Single Family Residence -Minimum Lot Size -20,000 Square Feet (R-1- 20,000). Generally, the following zones surround the project site: To the north is the R-1-20,000 Zone; to the south is the Agriculture (AG) Zone; to the east is the R-1-20,000 Zone; and to the west is the Single Family Residence - Minimum Lot Size 9,000 Square Feet (R-1-9,000) Zone. Development Review The purpose of Development Review is to establish consistency with the General Plan through the promotion of high aesthetic and functional standards to complement and add to the economic, physical, and social character of the City. In this case, the process will also ensure that the proposed project's development yield a pleasant living environment for the residents and visitors as the result of consistent exemplary design. Pursuant to Development Code Section 22.48.020, an application for Development Review is required for residential projects, which involve construction on a vacant parcel and new structures, additions to structures, and reconstruction projects which are equal to 50 percent or greater of the floor area of existing structures on site, or have a minimum 10,000 square feet of combined gross floor area. The proposed residential project is on a vacant lot with a gross floor area of approximately 11,600 square feet; therefore Development Review is required. The following is a comparison of the development standards set forth by the City through the map approval process and the project's proposed development standards. V, CITY/MAP DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS PROPOSED PROJECT'S DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Tract Map No. 47850 Tract Map No. 47850 (Lot 31) Setbacks: Minimum Setbacks: Minimum Residence: Residence: • Front yard — 25 ft. from property line; • Front yard — 32.083 ft.; • Side yard —10 & 15 ft. from pad's edge with 40 • Side yard — 27 & 35 ft. with 54 ft. separation ft. between dwelling units; from dwelling unit on Lot 30 and 47 ft. • Rear yard — 25 ft. from pad's edge; separation to dwelling unit on Lot 32; • Rear yard —25 ft. from pad's edge; BUILDING HEIGHT: BUILDING HEIGHT: • Two stories — maximum 35 ft. from natural or • Two stories— 35 ft from natural or finished finished grade; grade; PARKING: PARKING: • Minimum two car garage (10' x 20' each); • Three -car garage (24' x42' FENCING/WALLS: FENCING/WALLS: • Maximum exposed height within the side and • Varying height with maximum exposed height - rear setback — 6 ft; 6 ft; • Maximum exposed height within the front • Maximum exposed height within the front setback — 42 inches; setback 42 inches; LOT COVERAGE: LOT COVERAGE: • Maximum — 30 percent; • Approximately 21 percent; The proposed project's development standards comply with the Tract Map's approved development standards and the City's development standards. Architectural Features and Colors The proposed residence's architectural style, as referred to in the application is Colonial. This style is compatible with other residences in this tract of home and "The Country Estates" due to the eclectic architectural style that is existing in this area. Prominent architectural features include the front entry flanked by columns, quoin accents, window style and varying planes on the front facade. Additionally, the garage will be located in the side yard and will not be a focal point of the front fagade. A materials/colors board has been submitted which delineates the followina: Stucco Colors La Habra Stucco — X-#55 (French Vanilla) Quoins Cedar Limestone (CSV -2044) Roof Concrete Roof Tile —Eagle Tile, SHC#8709 —El Marado Blend shades of terra-cotta) The proposed mate rials/colors board is compatible with other residences within the area. The proposed materials/colors board was compared to colors and material previously approved for homes adjacent or near the project site. The comparison indicates that each lot's color scheme is somewhat similar to other colors chosen due to the fact that earth tones are being utilized. However, quoins and wrought iron accent and the architectural style of the proposed residence will distinguish it from neighboring residences and will provide a desirable environment, good aesthetic use of materials, textures and colors that will remain aesthetically appealing while offering variety in color and texture. A floor plan is included as part of Exhibit "A". The proposed single-family structure contains two stories. The first floor contains an entry area, living room, dining room, office, family room, kitchen with nook, pantry and Chinese kitchen, bar, maids room with bathroom, guest bedroom with bathroom, powder room, laundry room, exterior bathroom within the garage and three -car garage. The second floor contains a master bedroom with a bathroom, sifting room with bar and his/her walk-in closets, four bedrooms each with a bathroom, study room, game room, hallway and exterior terrace. A total of seven bedrooms are proposed with a three -car garage. The proposed driveway area is large enough to accommodate at least four additional cars. As a result, staff believes that the numbers of bedrooms in relationship to the number of parking spaces that will be provided are adequate. Grading/ Retaining Walls The pad elevation will be 1041 feet. The grading plan indicates that proposed project would generate approximately 630 cubic yards of cut only. The cutwork is related to preparing the pad and the installation of two retaining walls particular to creating the driveway adjacent to the north property line. These retaining walls, varying in height with a maximum exposed height of six feet and will be cutting into the side slope to create the driveway area. 0 Other retaining walls are proposed varying in height with a maximum exposed height of six feet which is permitted by the City's Development Code. Retaining walls and walls with pilasters and wrought iron gates located within the front yard setback will not exceed an exposed height of 42 inches as prescribed in the City's Development Code. Landscaping/Irrigation A landscape/irrigation plan was submitted with this project. The applicant will be required to submit a final landscape/irrigation plan, for the City's review and approval, reflecting the landscaping guidelines and restrictions set forth by Vesting Tract Map No. 47850 with regards to the required plant palette on the slope adjacent to the north property line. Said planting materials shall be equal in size to those which will be removed to create the driveway pad. It is required that the approved landscaping and irrigation be installed prior to final inspection or Certificate of Occupancy issuance. Buyers' Awareness Package As a tract map condition of approval, the applicant should have received a City approved Buyers' Awareness Package from the seller of the property. This package addressed issues related to property geology, wildlife corridors, tree preservation, existence and constraints of Significant Ecological Area No. 15 and Tonner Canyon, property restrictions and similar related matters. It is required that the Buyers' Awareness Package be delivered to each buyer. A copy of the signed receipt by the buyer verifying receipt of the package and that the buyer has read the information within the package must be forwarded to the City. To insure this process, prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, the applicant will be required to forward the receipt to the City Additional Review The City's Public Works and Building and Safety Divisions reviewed this project.

(c) The project site is within the Single Family Residence -Minimum Lot Size 20,000 Square Feet (R-1-20,000) Zone. (d) Generally, the following zones surround the project site: To the north is the R-1-20,000 Zone; to the south is the Agriculture (AG) Zone; to the east is the R-1-20,000 Zone; and to the west is the Single Family Residence -Minimum Lot Size 9,000 Square Feet (R-1-9,000) Zone. (e) The Application request is to construct a two-story single-family residence of with three -car garages, terraces, balconies and porches totaling to approximately 11,600 square feet. Additionally, the project request includes retaining walls of varying heights with a maximum exposed height of six feet. DEVELOPMENT REVIEW (f) The design and layout of the proposed development is consistent with the applicable elements of the City's General Plan, City Design Guidelines, and development standards of the applicable district, design guidelines, and architectural criteria for special areas (e.g., theme areas, specific plans, community plans, boulevards or planned developments). Originally, Tract Map No. 47850 was submitted as a vesting tentative tract map. At that time, the City was operating under a draft General Plan. The General Plan was adopted on July 25, 1995. Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 47850 was approved on June 5, 1995. However, this vesting map was designed at 25 percent below the maximum allowable density and has an overall average density of 1.49 dwelling units per acre which complies with the General Plan 6d use designation of Rural Residential (Maximum 1 DU/AC). Additionally, the proposed project complies with the General Plan objectives and strategies and the City's Design Guidelines related to maintaining the integrity of residential neighborhoods and open space. Furthermore, the proposed project is compatible with the eclectic architectural style, colors and materials of other homes within Tract No. 47850 and adjacent "Country Estates." (g) The design and layout of the proposed development will not interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future development and will not create traffic or pedestrian hazards. Tract Map No. 47850's Environmental Impact Report No. 91-2 certified by the City addresses the design and layout of the neighborhood as well as the flow of pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Steeplechase Lane and Crystal Ridge Road and other access roads to the tract adequately serve the project site as presented in the Environmental Impact Report. These private streets are designed to handle minimum traffic created by this gated residential development. Therefore, the use of a contemplated single-family residence will not interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future development and will not create traffic or pedestrian hazards. (h) The architectural design of the proposed development is compatible with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and will maintain the harmonious, orderly and attractive development contemplated by Chapter 22.48.20. Development Review Standards, City Design Guidelines, the City's General Plan, or any applicable specific plan. Proposed prominent architectural features/focal point of the residence are the front entry flanked by columns, quoin accents, window style and varying planes on the front facade. Additionally, the garage will be 3 located in the side yard and will not be a focal point of the front fa!pade. Furthermore, architectural treatment extends to all sides of the proposed residential structure. Considering the proposed residence's location, variation in earth tone colors, difference in roof material and variation in architectural styles between the proposed residence, which is Colonial and existing residences within the tract, the project will provide a desirable environment with good aesthetic use of materials, textures and colors* that will remain aesthetically appealing while offering variety. Therefore, the architectural design of the proposed development is compatible with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and will maintain the harmonious, orderly and attractive development contemplated by Chapter 22.48.20. . Development Review Standards, City Design Guidelines, the City's General Plan. Additionally, as approved the proposed project will be compatible with Vesting Tract Map No. 47850's development standards. The design of the proposed development will provide a desirable environment for its occupants and visiting public as well as its neighbors through good aesthetic use of materials, texture, and color that will remain aesthetically appealing and will retain a reasonably adequate level of maintenance. As referenced in the above findings (f), (g) and (h), the colors/materials board, the proposed project will provide a desirable environment for its occupants and visiting public as well as its neighbors through good aesthetic use of materials, texture and color that will remain aesthetically appealing while offering variety in color, texture and a low level of maintenance. The proposed development will not be detrimental to public health, safety or welfare or materially injurious (e.g. negative affect on property values or resale(s) of property) to the properties or improvements in the vicinity; and Before the issuance of any City permits, the proposed project is required to comply with all conditions within the approved resolution and the Building and Safety Division, Public Works Division, and Fire Department requirements. The referenced agencies through the permit and inspection process will ensure that the proposed project is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or materially injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity. (k) The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Section 15303(a) and guidelines promulgated thereunder, the City has determined that this project is categorically exempt.

Allen Avenue, #109, San Dimas, CA 91773 BACKGROUND: The property owners, Mike and Christin Whatley, and applicant/agent are requesting approval to remodel and construct an approximate 1,020 square feet second story addition to an existing 1,995 square feet one-story single-family residence with a two car garage. The project's address is 826 Great Bend Drive (Lot 68, Tract No. 31139), Diamond Bar. It is a near rectangular shaped lot. The existing parcel was approved with Tract Map No. 31139, Lot 68, as .23 acres, 10,152 gross square feet and 5,026 usable square feet. The original structure was approved and completed in 1973. The project site is zoned single-family residence, R-1-8,000. The General Plan Land Use designation is Low Density Residential (RL), maximum 3 dwelling/units per acre. The R-1- 8,000 -1-8,000 zone surrounds the site. E REVIEW AUTHORITY This application requires Planning Commission Development Review approval per Municipal Code, Section 22.48.020(a)(1). The second story addition of 1,020 square feet to an existing 1,995 square feet structure is greater than 50 percent of the floor area of the existing structures and therefore subject to the discretionary Development Review process. This review process establishes General Plan consistency through the promotion of high aesthetic and functional standards to complement and add to the economic, physical, and social character of the City. The process is to ensure that new development and intensification of existing development yields a pleasant living, working, or shopping environment and attracts the interest of residents, workers, shoppers and visitors as the result of consistent exemplary design. The process utilizes the City's Design Guidelines and the City's Development Code to promote development that respects the physical and environmental characteristics of the community and the site. DEVELOPMENT REVIEW/MINOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ® Development Standards The following is a comparison of the City's development standards and the project's proposed development standards: City's Development Standards Project's Development Standards 1. Setbacks (main structure): 1. Setbacks (main structure): ® Front yard -20 feet from property line 0 Front yard- 22 feet from property line ® Side yards -5 feet & 10 feet minimum ® Side yards- 5 feet and 12.25 feet from from property line, and 15 feet between property line, and meets 15 feet between structures on adjoining parcels structures on both sides ® Rear yard -20 feet from property line ® Rear yard -85 feet from property line ® Site Coverage -overall maximum 40% ® Site Coverage -Approximately 19% 2. Building Height: 2. Building Height: Maximum 35 feet Two story approximately 26 feet 3. Parking: 3. Parking: Minimum two -car garage with each bay Existing two car garage 20.5'Wx21'L minimum 10'x20' I plus driveway *There are four designated bedrooms plus the den and office as potential bedrooms with a two -car garage and large driveway. Staff anticipates adequate parking for this remodel. F9 General Plan/Design Guidelines/Compatibility with Neighborhood The General Plan has two strategies relating to compatibility within the Land Use Element: 1. Strategy 1.2.4, Maintain residential areas which provide ownership for single family housing and require that new development be compatible with the prevailing character of the surrounding neighborhood; and 2. Strategy 2.2.1, Requires that new developments be compatible with surrounding land uses. The second story's mass is at the west side and the one story is retained on the east side. There is 15 feet between structures on adjoining parcels as required. The lot slopes up in the rear and the reconstruction/remodel does not affect the existing pad. The homes on Mane Drive behind the subject remodel are at a higher elevation. There are variations of one and two story structures in this neighborhood with varying square footage. This application is consistent with the neighborhood and immediate neighbors. Staff's review deems that this Application is consistent with the General Plan, Municipal Code Standards, and City's Design Guidelines. ® Architectural Features and Colors The proposed single family residence's contemporary architectural style is maintained. The project uses architectural styling with the use of existing door entry with side lights; wood trim fascia; stucco; and layering of materials and finishes with overall charcoal asphalt shingles of multi-levels of roof lines. These with the wood siding and stone at the garage add texture and contrast. The materials provide variety and interest. The project's colors and materials are maintained. By maintaining the project's architectural style and palette, the application is compatible with the other homes within the tract. ® Floor Plans The addition converts livable space on the first story to stairs and closet. The existing master bedroom downstairs has a 1/2 bath and dressing room not called out on the drawings. There is no change to this area. The addition adds a master bedroom with bath, hall bath, laundry and two bedrooms upstairs. Bedrooms on the first floor will be converted to a study and office. An approval condition has been added that the owner obtain a Zoning Clearance from the Planning Division for any Home Based Business use per Municipal Code Section 22.42.070 in the proposed office. 3 ® Covenant and Agreement An approval condition requires the owners to complete and record a "Covenant and Agreement to Maintain a Single Family Residence" on a City form. The covenant must be recorded with the Los Angeles County's Recorder's Office prior to building permit issuance. SITE WORK The subject reconstruction/remodel is on the existing pad. No grading or retaining walls are anticipated. Should it be necessary to work more than 50 cubic yards of earth, the Public Works Division will require a grading/drainage plan. LANDSCAPING Front yard landscaping is often destroyed during a remodel of this magnitude. Therefore, a front yard landscape/irrigation plan is required as an approval condition. Theplan is required to delineate the type of planting materials, color, size, quantity and location. It is a requirement that the landscaping/irrigation be installed or replaced per the plan prior to the Planning Division's final inspection. Additionally, it is noted for the owners and applicant that any walls, gates, fountains, etc. that are proposed or exist within the front setback shall not encroach into the street's dedicated easement; nor, shall any such structure or dense plant material proposed within the front setback exceed a maximum height of 42 inches. mel go bib HUI The subject property is less than 1/2 acre and is exempt from tree preservation requirements. VIEW IMPACT The properties to the north on Mane Drive are higher than the subject property. The other neighboring parcels are basically at the same elevation. The approximate height of the two story addition is 26 feet and in accordance with Municipal Code height standards; therefore, the proposed remodel is not considered an impact to the view corridor of surrounding properties. UN03129MRN The Public Works Division and the Building and Safety Division reviewed this project. Their comments are included in both the report and the conditions of approval. 0 NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING: On November 18, 2003, 118 property owners within a 500 -foot radius of the project site were notified by mail and three other locations were posted within the application's vicinity. On November 25, 2003, the project's public hearing notification was published in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune and Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspapers and a public hearing notice display board was posted at the site. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City has determined that the proposed project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15301(e).

Resolution NOW, THEREFORE, it is found, determined and resolved by the Planning Commission of the City of Diamond Bar as follows: The Planning Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct. 2. The Planning Commission hereby determines that the project identified above in this Resolution is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (CEQA) and guidelines promulgated thereunder. This is pursuant to Section 15301(e) of Article 19 of Chapter 3, Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. DRAFT ATTACHMENT "1" 3. The Planning Commission hereby specifically finds and determines that, having considered the record as a whole including the findings set forth below, and changes and alterations which have been incorporated into and conditioned upon the proposed project set forth in the Application, there is no evidence before this Planning Commission that the project proposed herein will have the potential of an adverse effect on wild life resources or the habitat upon which the wildlife depends. Based upon substantial evidence, this Planning Commission hereby rebuts the presumption of adverse effects contained in Section 753.5 (d) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. 4. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth herein, this Planning Commission hereby finds as follows: (a) The project relates to a parcel at 826 Great Bend Drive (Lot 68, Tract No. 31139), Diamond Bar, California. The project site is approximately .23 gross acres, 10,152 gross square feet and 5,026 usable square feet. It is a near rectangular shaped lot with an existing one-story single family residence. (b) The General Plan Land Use designation is Low Density Residential (RL), maximum 3 dwelling units per acre. The site is zoned Single - Family Residence, R-1-8,000. (c) The R-1-8,000 zone surrounds the site. (d) The Application is a request to remodel and construct an approximate 1,020 square feet second story addition n to an existing 1,995 square feet one-story single-family residence with two car garage. DEVELOPMENT REVIEW (e) The design and layout of the proposed development are consistent with the General Plan, development standards of the applicable district, design guidelines, and architectural criteria for specialized area (e.g., theme areas, specific plans, community plans, boulevards, or planned developments. The project site, currently developed with a one-story, single-family residence, was established before the adoption of the City's General Plan and current Municipal Code. The adopted General Plan of July 25, 1995 has a land use designation of Low Density Residential (RL) (maximum 3 dwelling units/per acre). The Application complies with the City's General Plan objectives and strategies related to maintaining the integrity of residential neighborhoods and open �q DRAFT ATTACHMENT "1" space, the current Diamond Bar Municipal Code, and with the City's Design Guidelines. There is no specific plan. The proposed project conforms to applicable provisions of the Municipal Code, the site coverage is less than 40 percent, is comparable with the existing neighborhood, it meets the required height limitations, and it does not encroach into the setbacks. The proposed project is a one and two story home. The properties to the north on Mane Drive are higher than the subject property. The other neighboring parcels are basically at the same elevation. The approximate height of the two story addition is 26 feet and in accordance with Municipal Code height standards; therefore, the proposed remodel is not considered an impact to the view corridor of surrounding properties. The design and layout of the proposed development will not interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future development, and will not create traffic or pedestrian hazards. Great Bend Drive adequately serves the project site. This and the neighboring streets, Farben Drive and Goldrush Drive, are designed to handle minimum traffic created by residential development. The project site is currently developed with a one story single-family residence. The proposed reconstruction/remodeling does not change the existing use of a single-family residence. Although the proposed second story addition enlarges the existing residence, it meets the 35 feet height limitation per the Municipal Code. Additionally, the Application has a style consistent with surrounding properties. The structure is not expected to unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future development with regard to view or traffic. (g) The architectural design of the proposed development is compatible with the characteristics of the surrounding neighborhood and will maintain and enhance the harmonious, orderly and attractive development contemplated by Chapter 22.48, the General Plan, City Design Guidelines, or any applicable specific plan. The proposed single family residence's contemporary architectural style is maintained. The project uses architectural styling with the use of existing door entry with side lights; wood trim fascia; stucco; and layering of materials and finishes with overall charcoal asphalt shingles of multi-levels of roof lines. These with the wood siding and stone at the garage add texture and contrast. The materials provide 3 5. DRAFT ATTACHMENT "1" variety and interest The project's colors and materials are maintained. By maintaining the project's architectural style and palette, the application is compatible with the other homes within the tract. The Application design is consistent with the General Plan, City's Design Guidelines and Municipal Code. There is no specific plan. (h) The design of the proposed development will provide a desirable environment for its occupants and visiting public, as well as its neighbors, through good aesthetic use of materials, texture, and color that will remain aesthetically appealing. A new roof of charcoal asphalt shingles is planned, otherwise the colors, materials, and textures proposed are the same as existing and are complimentary to the existing homes within the area while offering variety and low levels of maintenance. (i) The proposed project will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious (e.g., negative affect on property values or resale(s) of property) to the properties or improvements in the vicinity. Structural plan check, City permits, and inspections, soils report and Fire Department approvals, are required for construction. These processes will ensure that the finished project will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity. Additionally, a Recorded Covenant and Agreement is required and runs with the land to maintain a single famfiv residence.
