Director's Report
Meeting Date: April 26, 2010
SUBJECT: FYI — REQUESTED CHANGE TO A PREVIOUSLY APPROVED DESIGN
REVIEW PROJECT AT 814 CROSSWAY ROAD, ZONED R-1.
Summary: An application for Design Review was approved by the Planning Commission on
February 8, 2010, for a first and second story addition to an existing single family dwelling at
814 Crossway Road (February 8, 2010, Planning Commission Meeting Minutes attached). A
building permit was issued on April 12, 2010, and construction is currently underway.
On April 7, 2010, the applicant submitted an FYI to change the originally approved window grid
pattern on windows along every elevation of the house. There are also some minor changes to
window locations proposed. Because of the proposed change to the window grids, an FYI is
required for Planning Commission review. There are no other changes proposed to the project.
The window grid change is outlined in the attached letter from the architect. Also attached are
the originally approved and proposed building elevation drawings, date stamped April 7, 2010.
Planning staff would note that because of the minor revision to the window grids, it was
determined that the project could be reviewed by the Commission as an FYI item. If the
Commission feels there 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.

VIII. REGULAR ACTION ITEMS
1b. 814 CROSSWAY ROAD, ZONED R-1 — APPLICATION FOR DESIGN REVIEW FOR A FIRST AND
SECOND STORY ADDITION TO AN EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING (TRG ARCHITECTS,

Reference staff report dated February 8, 2010, with attachments. Senior Planner Hurin presented the
report, reviewed criteria and staff comments. Twelve (12) conditions were suggested for consideration.
Chair Terrones opened the public hearing.
Randy Grange, 205 Park Road; represented the applicant
Commission comments:
■ Whywas the window squared-off? Was not a suggestion of the Commission. Thought the existing
window was more attractive. (Grange — more consistent with the style of the house.)
■ The angled-top windows were an attractive feature, but the change is not a deal breaker.
■ Clarified that there will still be a door at the top of the steps on the enclosed porch.
■ Noticed that the rear garage door has finro steps down. (Grange — the finro steps are not correct; the
garage door is flush with the courtyard.)
Public comments:
None.
There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed.
