PROJECT: TC-RES-0423-04425
746 S. Osborne Ave. – OH-3
Garage and Casita Addition, Existing Renovation (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: October 3, 2023

Please resubmit revised drawings and any redlined plans along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed.

This site is located in the O-3 zone (UDC 4.7.15). A single-family residence with an ADU is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-3), subject UDC Article 6.6.3.
1. Clarify what is proposed for this project, the application states “Garage and Casita Addition, Existing Renovation”, site plan keynote 1 states “PROPOSED DWELLING /GARAGE” and the historic package calls out “ADU”. Clarification is required as dimensional standards and requirements are different for a 2nd dwelling unit and an ADU. This site can support either a 2nd dwelling unit or an ADU. Once this comment is addressed additional comments may be forth coming.

2. It appears this site is made up of two (2) parcels, 117-14-383D & 117-14-383E, to develop this site as shown a lot combination is required.

3. Keynote 4 calls out ‘DRIVEWAY 3 PARKING SPACES” but this area does not appear to be larger enough for 3 parking spaces.

4. It appears that some type of wall or fence is proposed along the east, north and west property line. Clearly identify what is proposed and provide the height, perimeter yard setbacks may be an issue.

5. Until comment 1 is addressed Zoning cannot determine if the requirements of UDC Article 6.6.3.B.4 apply.

COMMENTS: the following comments are relative to an application for Historic Review (UDC 5.8.8).
1. The proposed addition requires historic review

2. The minimum setback to a side street property line is ten (10) feet (UDC Section 6.4.5.C.1.b). Perimeter yard setbacks are based on a measurement from design grade to the highest point of the exterior wall UDC Article 6.4.5.B & Figure 6.4.5-A. Based on a wall height of 14’-3” the required perimeter yard setback to the north property line is 10’-8”, proposed setback is 3’-6”. Historic review can waive perimeter yard setback requires.
