Applicant: Eberhard Woerz Property Owner: Kristina Woerz Dooman Lot Area: 9,290 SF APN: 025-033-090 General Plan: Low Density Residential Zoning: R-1 Adjacent Development: Single Family Residential CEQA Status: Article 19. Categorically Exempt per Section: 15301 Class 1 - (e) additions to existing structures provided the addition will not result in an increase of more than 50% of the floor area of the structures before the addition. Summary: The applicant, Eberhard Woerz, is requesting a hillside area construction permit and lot coverage variance for a 10'-0" x 25'-0" patio cover (250 SF) at 2829 Tiburon Way, zoned R-1. The lot coverage variance is required for 43.2% lot coverage where 40% is the maximum allowed (CS 25.28.071). The existing house is nonconforming in lot coverage (40.5%). The patio cover will. be attached to the rear of the house and is located approximately 30'-0" from the side property line (along Sebastian Drive) and 42'-0" from the rear property line. The overall height of the patio cover is 9'-0" from grade. The existing house has a total floor area of 6,004.5 SF (including garage) and is located on a 9,290 SF lot. History: In July 1967, the Planning Commission approved a rear setback variance for 8'-0" where 15'-0" is required for an indoor heated swimming pool (July 24, 1967 P.C. Minutes). The variance was granted on the finding that an average of 15' in the rear setback was exceeded. The addition was noted to comply with the maximum lot coverage at the time. PROPOSED EXISTING ALLOWED/REQ'D Front Setback : not affected Side Setback (L): not affected (R): 30'-0" 14'-0" 7'-0" Rear Setback: 43'-0" 8'-0" 15'-0" Lot Coverage: *43.2% 40.5% 20'-0" Building Height: not affected Parking: not affected * Lot coverage variance required.

Staff Comments: The Building Official, City Engineer and Fire Marshal had no comments. Planning staff notes that it is difficult to get an accurate measurement of the lot size because the shape of the lot is unusual. This may explain why the existing house is nonconforming in lot coverage. When the property owners applied for a rear setback variance for an addition in 1967, the City Planner noted that lot coverage was not an issue and that the property had ample rear yard and side setbacks (July 24, 1967 P.C. Minutes). In order to get an accurate calculation of the lot size for this project, Planning staff asked the Engineering Dept. to use coordinate geometry (using given bearings and distances). By this method, the most accurate available to us, the lot size was determined to be 9,290 SF.
