Review and Recommendation |
The subject site is made up of three parcels, two of which are vacant and one with an existing home. All three parcels are currently zoned Agricultural District (AG-1). The current request is to approve a rezoning from AG-1 to PAD for a single-family residence. As part of this request, the applicant is requesting deviations from the required 30 ft. side yard and 40 ft. rear yard setbacks required for properties zoned AG-1. Proposed setbacks of 10 ft. on both side yards and 10 ft. from the rear yard are being requested. This request is consistent with other single family developments in the area as well as others that have recently been approved by the City Council. Planning staff has reviewed the request and supports the proposal, citing consistency with the General Plan and Zoning Code. The proposal is consistent with the policies of the General Plan, which call for a variety of housing choices and a compatible mix of housing choices within the Neighborhood Designation. Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval subject to conditions. |
