TRANSMITTAL: September 12, 2007


COMMENTS: Please attach a response letter with the next submittal, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments regarding the Land Use Code and Development Standards were addressed.


1) This review is an addition to the second unit by way of an enclosure of the carport and conversion of that carport to a bedroom. The zoning is R-1 (LUC Section 2.3.4.2.A.2) and the development designator is "H" (LUC Section 3.2.3.1.B). The perimeter Yard indicator is AA (LUC Section 3.2.6.4).

2) The first unit has been identified as having three bedrooms. The second unit has a total of four bedrooms including the carport enclosure. Five parking spaces are required (LUC Section 3.3.4). All parking and maneuvering must be located on site. The vehicle use area must be improved and meet all the requirements in Development Standard 3-05.0. Parking must be located in a side or rear perimeter yard (LUC Section 3.5.7.1.H).

3) The site plan submitted appears to present two alternatives. One provides five (5) parking spaces in the side yard facing Linden Street. The other alternative provides three (3) parking spaces along the side of first unit and two (2) parking spaces along the front street side of the site facing Mountain Avenue. Parking is not permitted in the front yard (LUC Section 3.5.7.1.H). These two parking spaces in front of the second unit provide access from, and maneuverability in, the alley. Alley access cannot be approved for this application on this site. All access and maneuverability must be on site (LUC Section 3.5.7.1.H). In addition, the alley or the public right-of-way (ROW) cannot be used for maneuverability (LUC Sections 3.3.7.5 and 4.1.8.3). Please revise the site plan for compliance and present one parking plan.

4) Please be aware that the vehicle use area(s) "must be improved, which includes surfacing, striping, and provision of barriers, in conformance with Development Standard 3-05.0" (LUC Section 3.5.7.1.H). The parking area access lane (PAAL) must be a two-way driveway with a minimum width of twenty-four (24) feet (DS 3-05.2.1.C & Table 1) and (LUC Section 3.3.7.2).

5) Please provide floor plans for each unit depicting what is there for the first unit and what is purposed for the second unit. The floor plan of record for the first unit is incomplete and the second unit must be presented as purposed. Confirmation of the number of bedrooms is required (LUC Section 3.5.7.1.H).

6) Provide the square footage for each unit. "One dwelling must be at least twenty-five (25) percent smaller than the other dwelling" (LUC Section 3.5.7.1.C).

7) Please provide the lot coverage calculations on the site plan. List the square footage of each enclosed structure and the square footage of each addition. Also provide the square footage of the vehicle use areas. Total the square footage of all of these items; then divide that total by the lot square footage. List all this information on the site plan. (Please see the plot plan handout with instructions.) The maximum lot coverage is seventy (70) percent (LUC Section 3.2.3.1.B).

8) The minimum font is 12pt or use the architectural standard of one-eight of an inch for all text and dimensions. Please revise the plan.

Please resubmit the revised site plans and floor plans for BOA variance comments. Please use a twenty (20) scale or larger. This thirty (30) scale drawing is too difficult to see and the print is too small.
