B. 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; and
The Planning Commission hereby determines the Project to be
Categorically Exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the provisions of Article 19,
Section 15301 (e) (additions to existing structures) of the CEQA Guidelines.
Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
C. FINDINGS OF FACT
Based on the findings and conclusions set forth herein and as prescribed under
Diamond Bar Municipal Code (DBMC) Section 22.48, this Planning Commission
hereby finds as follows:
Development Review Findings (DBMC Section 22.48.040)
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).
The design and layout of the proposed 2,520 square -foot single -story
addition to the front and rear of an existing single -story, single-family
residence is consistent with the City's General Plan, City Design Guidelines
and Development Code standards. The mass and scale of the addition are
proportionate to the existing house and surrounding properties.
The project site is not part of any theme area, specific plan, community plan,
boulevard or planned development.
2. The design and layout of the proposed development will not interfere with
the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future developments, and
will not create traffic or pedestrian hazards.
The proposed addition will not interfere with the use and enjoyment of
neighboring existing or future developments because the use of the project
2 PC 2019-01
site is designed for a single-family home and the surrounding uses are also
single-family homes. According to the applicant, no protected trees exist
on site.
The proposed addition will not interfere with vehicular or pedestrian
movements, such as access or other functional requirements of a single-
family home because it complies with the requirements for driveway widths
and is a continuation of an existing use.
3. The architectural design of the proposed development is compatible with
the character of the surrounding neighborhood and will maintain and
enhance the harmonious, orderly and attractive development contemplated
by Chapter 22:48: Development Review Standards, the City's Design
Guidelines, the City's General Plan, or any applicable specific plan.
The project is located between a one-story home to the west and a two-
story home to the east. The proposed addition will not be intrusive to
neighboring homes since the proposed addition will not block existing views
from adjacent properties. The adjacent homes to the east and west have
views to the north and south. The house across the street to the north is
located approximately 400 feet away and has views to the north, west and
east. Although the applicant is adding 2,520 square feet more than twice
its size—the house will be smaller in mass and scale compared to other
existing homes on similar lots in The Country. The architecture in The
Country is eclectic, and includes a variety of architectural designs. The
scale and proportions of the addition are well balanced and appropriate for
the site.
4. 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, color, and will remain
aesthetically appealing.
The applicant is proposing to change the architectural style to a blend of
Italian Renaissance and Mediterranean Revival. Exterior finishes include
Tuscan Villa stone veneer and smooth stucco. The project includes
Mediterranean Revival features such as rectangular floor plan, keystones
above windows, and simple ornamentation. The project also includes
features to emphasize the Italian Renaissance design vocabulary such as
an arched entrance, tall arched and rectangular windows, and a low-pitched
hipped roof with terracotta/clay roof tiles. Therefore, the addition will not
negatively impact the look and character of the neighborhood. The
proposed addition will not be intrusive to neighboring homes and will be
aesthetically appealing by integrating a variety of materials, such as
3 PC 2019-01
terracotta/clay roof tiles, stucco with a trowel finish, and stone veneer.
Earth -tone shades for the.exterior finish are used to soften the building's
visual impact and assist in preserving the hillside's aesthetic value. Also,
landscaping is integrated into the site to complement the massing of the
house and blend in with neighboring homes and the natural environment of
the site in order to maintain a desirable environment. The scale and
proportions of the addition are well balanced and appropriate for the site.
5. The proposed development will not be detrimental to public health, safety
or welfare or materially injurious (e.g., negative effect on property values or
resale(s) of property) to the properties or improvements in the vicinity.
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 and Public Works Departments requirements.
Through the permit and inspection process, the referenced agencies 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.
The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the provisions
of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as set forth under Article 19
Section 15301 (e) (additions to existing structures) of the CEQA guidelines.
Based upon the findings and conclusion set forth above, the Planning Commission hereby
approves this Application, subject to the following conditions:
1. Development shall substantially comply with the plans and documents presented
to the Planning Commission at the public hearing.
2. Standard Conditions. The applicant shall comply with the standard development
conditions attached hereto.
The Planning Commission shall:
a. Certify to the adoption of this Resolution; and
b. Forthwith transmit a certified copy of this Resolution, by certified mail
to the property owner, Juliet Chung, 2475 Indian Creek Road,
Diamond Bar, CA 91765, and applicant, Diana Cheng, 2705 S.
