Design Review Study
Address: 624 Trenton Way Meeting Date: 02/26/07
Request: Design review and parking variance for uncovered space length for a first and second story
addition.
Applicant/Architect: Katrina Kuhl
Property Owners: Suzi and Frank Hennelly
General Plan: Low Density Residential
APN: 029-165-130
Lot Area: 5,000 SF
Zoning: R-1
Summary: The existing single story house, with an attached one-car garage, contains 1,504 SF (0.30
FAR) of floor area and has three bedrooms. The applicant is proposing to remodel the existing kitchen
and dining room and add a new family room on the first floor and build a new second story. The
proposed second story would total 1,109 SF. With the proposed addition, the floor area will increase
from 1,504 SF (0.30 FAR) to 2,692 SF (0.54 FAR) where 2,700 SF (0.54 FAR) is the maximum
allowed. The proposed project is 8 SF below the maximum allowed FAR.
With this project, the number of bedrooms will increase from three to four. One covered (10' x 20')
and one uncovered (9' x 20') parking spaces are required for the proposed four-bedroom house. The
existing attached one-car garage (8'-9" x 19'-2" clear interior dimensions) has been reconfigured inside
to comply with the required covered parking space dimensions of 10' x 20'. The uncovered parking
space (9' x 17'-7" dimensions, as measured to interior edge of sidewalk) provided in the driveway does
not meet the parking requirement for uncovered parking space length (9' x 20' required)and therefore a
parking variance is required. All other zoning code requirements have been met. The following
applications are required:
■ Design review for a first and second story addition (C.S. 25.57.010, 5).
■ Parking variance for substandard uncovered parking space length (9'-0" x 17'-7" existing and
proposed where 9' x 20' is required) (C.S. 25.70.020, 2).
