Summary: An application for Design Review for a new two-story single family dwelling and detached garage was approved by the Planning Commission on April 9, 2007 (April 9, 2007 P.C.

Instead, the approved leaded windows were replaced with clad windows that match what was approved throughout the rest of the house. 2. Window Headers: The approved 3x8 cedar headers over most windows were changed to 2x4 headers (per prior discussion with Planning staf�. However, the headers were eliminated on many of the windows throughout the house. 3. Corbels and Rafter Tails: Enclosed eave and gutter returns were constructed where corbels and exposed rafter tails were approved. 4. Decorative Trim: The approved trim between the first and second stories on rear elevation was changed to a wooden belle trim along the rear and sides of the master bedroom overhang. 5. Planter Boxes: Planter boxes were approved on all four elevations, but the applicant is proposing to eliminate them on the right side and rear elevations. The applicant submitted a two letters, one listing the changes that were made and another detailing why the changes were made. The applicant also submitted copies of the originally approved and proposed elevations (date-stamped April 20, 2008) for the Planning Commission's review. Planning staff would note that because of the nature of these revisions, it was determined that the project could be reviewed by the Commission as an FYI item. If the Commission feels there Community Development Department Memorandum Aprii 21, 2008 Page 2 is a need for more study, this item may be placed on an action calendar for a second review and/or public hearing with direction to the applicant.

FYI reasons for change 1. Leaded glass windows were replaced with simulated true divided light clad windows to allow more natural light into the bathroom areas and to be consistent with rest of house. 2. The 3X8 ceder headers with replaced with 2X4 header over a brick mould trim on the curved windows and front french door to still give the effect of a header but be more in proportion with the house. Brick mould was used on all of the windows due to the boxed in eave there was not significant room for the 2" header. 3. The corbels were replaced at the 3�ottom of eave with an enclosed eave and gutter return to provide a cleaner finished look. 4. The wooden belle trim was continued around the rear master bedroom area over nook and kitchen to relieve stress on the stucco smooth finish and to be a continuation of the master bedroom overhang band. 5. Right elevation and rear elevation planters were removed because of inability to access planter for maintenance and watering. Master bath planter requires climbing over the 4' tub. Stair well planter access is limited and the planter is not visible except from 4' side pathway. � � F e.
