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)(2)(A) of Article 19 of Chapter 3, Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. 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 2953 Rising Star Drive (Lot 127, Tract No. 25991), Diamond Bar, California. The project site is approximately .19 gross acres. It is a nearly rectangular shaped lot with an existing one-story single family residence. (b) The General Plan Land Use designation is Low Density Residential (RL), max. 3 du/acre. The project site is zoned Single -Family Residence, R-1-7,500. (c) Generally, the R-1-7,500 Zone surrounds the subject site. (d) The Application is a request to remodel and add approximately 1,533 square feet to an existing 1,304 square feet single family residence including the 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 Development Code. The adopted General Plan of July 25, 1995, has a land use designation of Low Density Residential (RL) (max. 3 du/acre). The Application complies with the City's General Plan objectives and strategies related to maintaining the integrity of residential neighborhoods and open space, the current Diamond Bar Development Code, and with the City's Design Guidelines. There is no specific plan. 2 The proposed project conforms to applicable provisions of the Development Code, the site coverage is less than 40 percent, is comparable with the existing neighborhood, it meets the required height limitations and does not encroach into the setbacks. This is a single story home. The neighboring parcels are single-family residences and by maintaining the height limits of the Development Code, the proposed remodel is not considered an impact to the view corridor of surrounding properties. (f) 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. Diamond Bar Boulevard and Cold Spring Lane adequately serve the project site. These streets 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 addition enlarges the existing residence, it meets the 35 feet height limitation per the Development 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 dual door entry; stucco; wood trim fascia and shutters at the front windows, and layering of materials and finishes via multi-levels of roof lines using composition shingle roof to add texture and contrast. The use of these materials provides variety and interest. The proposed project's architectural trim and palette are compatible with the architectural style of other homes within the tract. The Application design is consistent with the General Plan, City's Design Guidelines and Development Code. There is no specific plan. 3 5. (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. 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 Covenant and Agreement is required and runs with the land to maintain a single family residence. (j) The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The environmental evaluation shows that the proposed project is categorically exempt pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (CEQA), Section 15301(e)(2)(A). Based upon the findings and conclusion set forth above, the Planning Commission hereby approves this Application subject to the following conditions: (a) The project shall substantially conform to site plan, floor plans, and elevations collectively labeled as Exhibit "A", dated May 14, 2002, as submitted to and approved by the Planning Commission.
