Address: 1373 Vancouver Avenue Meeting Date: 6/��/O1
Request: Design review and a special permit for height for a first and second story addition (C.S.
25.57.010, 25.28.060,a,1).
Applicant and Architect: Ben Behravesh
Property Owner: Nenad Vukic
General Plan: Low Density Residential
APN: 027-151-040
Lot Area: 6000 SF
Zoning: R-1
Summary: The existing residence is two stories with an attached garage. The residence is located on
a lot sloping fi�om the west to the east across the front of the property. The west elevation of the
residence is a single story, while the east elevation, at the front of the lot, is a two-story structure with
a partially below-grade basement. The applicant is proposing a first floor addition to the entry of the
h�use and a second story addition at the west and rear elevation of the house. The existing house totals
2211 SF (0.37 FAR). With the proposed additions, the floor area of will be 3020 SF (0.50 FAR) where
3J20 SF (0.50 FAR) is the maximum allowed. This application was submitted before the deadline for
the new basement regulations and therefore, the existing 827 SF garage, with walls that are more than
50% below g�-ade, is not included in the FAR calculations. There are 3 existing bedrooms and 2 new
bedrooms proposed on the second story. The study on the first level currently meets the definition of a
bedroom. However, the study will have one wall removed so that it does not meet the definition of a
bedroom and with the proposed addition, the number of bedrooms will irncrease from 3 to 4. The
existing garage provides one covered parking space and this meets the code requirements for a four-
bedroom house. If two covered parking spaces are required in the future, existing floor area will have
tU be eliminated or a variance will be required to accommodate a two-car garage. A special permit is
required for a height of 31'-8" where 30'-0" is the maximum allowed. All other zoning code
requirements have been met.
The applicant is requesting the following:

Request: Design review and a special permit for height for a first and second story addition (C.S.
25.57.010, 25.28.060,a,1).
Applicant and Architect: Ben Behravesh APN: 027-151-040
Property Owner: Nenad Vukic Lot Area: 6000 SF
General Plan: Low Density Residential Zoning: R-1
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 existing residence is two stories with an attached garage. The residence is located on
a lot sloping from the west to the east across the front of the property. The west elevation of the
residence is a single story, while the east elevation, at the front of the lot, is a two-story structure with
a partially below-grade basement. The applicant is proposing a first floor addition to the entry of the
house and a second story addition at the west and rear elevation of the house. The existing house totals
2211 SF (0.37 FAR). With the proposed additions, the floor area of will be 3020 SF (0.50 FAR) where
3020 SF (0.50 FAR) is the maximum allowed. This application was submitted before the deadline for
the new basement regulations and therefore, the existing 827 SF garage, with walls that are more than
SO% below grade, is not included in the FAR calculations. There are 3 existing bedrooms and 2 new
bedrooms proposed on the second story. The study on the first level currently meets the definition of a
bedroom. However, the study will have one wall removed so that it does not meet the definition of a
bedroom and with the proposed addition, the number of bedrooms will increase from 3 to 4. The
existing garage provides one covered parking space and this meets the code requirements for a four-

Design Review Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission design review study meeting on June
25, 2001, the Commission asked the applicant to add articulation the two-story wall at the right side
and to clarify whether the existing oak tree at the rear of the right elevation was accurately placed on
the drawings and whether it was going to be removed with construction (6/25/O1 Planning
Commission Minutes). The Commission moved to place this project on the consent calendar.
The applicant has submitted plans date stamped July 2, 2001, sheets A-3 and A-4, showing the smaller
window the second floor has been increased in size from 1'-8° x 2'-6" to 1'-8" x 4'-6" and a belly band
has been added to articulate the right side. The oak tree at the rear right elevation is accurately shown
on the plans and will remain after construction. This concern has been addressed in condition #5.
Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted
by the Council on Apri120, 1998 are outlined as follows:
Compatibility of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood;
2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood;
3. Architectural style and mass and bulk of structure;
2
Design Review and Special Permit 1373 Yancouver Avenue
4. Interface of the proposed structure with the structures on adjacent properties; and
5. Landscaping and its proportion to mass and bulk of structural components.
Findings: Based on the fact that the addition is located to the rear of the existing structure, it is found
that it blends with the mass and bulk of existing structure. The style of the proposed addition is
compatible with the existing Spanish colonial architectural style and the character of the neighborhood
Therefore, the project is found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five design review
guidelines.
Findings for a Special Permit: In arder to grant a special permit for declining height envelope, the
Planning Commission must find that the following conditions exist on the property (Code Section
25.51.020 a-d):
(a) The blend of mass, scale and dominant structural characteristics of the new construction or
addition are consistent with the existing structure's design and with the existing street and
neighborhood;
(b) the variety of roof line, facade, exterior finish materials and elevations of the proposed new
structure or addition are consistent with the existing structure, street and neighborhood;
(c) the proposed project is consistent with the residential design guidelines adopted by the city; and
(d) removal of any trees located within the footprint of any new structure or addition is necessary and
is consistent with tbe city's reforestation requirements, and the mitigation far the removal that is
proposed is appropriate.
Special Permit Findings: Based on the fact that the dwelling is located on a lot that slopes 2'-0" from
the front property line to the rear property line; that the lot also slopes 4'-0" from the left to the right
side of the lot and that the proposed second floor addition is located over the portion of the dwelling,
that is situated at the highest point of that slope; and that the roof pitch of the proposed addition
matches that of the existing dwelling, it is found to be compatible with the special permit criteria listed
above.
Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should hold a public hearing. Affirmative
action should be by resolution and include findings made for design review and a special permit for
height and the reasons for any action should be clearly stated. At the public hearing the following
conditions should be considered:
that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department date
stamped May 17, 2001, sheets A-0 and A-1, and July 2, 2001, sheets A-2 and A-3, and that any

C. Osterling noted that he lives within 500 feet of this property so will abstain from this action. He stepped
down from the dias. CP Monroe briefly presented the project description. There were no questions of staff.
Chairman Vistica opened the public comment. Ben Bahravesh, architect, represented the project noting that
this site slopes away from the street which affects the height calculation; the house is more than 30 feet if
measured from average top of curb but less if ineasured from adjacent existing grade, he did not want to clip
the ridgeline to keep it under 30 feet; adjacent neighbor's wall is also 5 feet from property line and long and
unarticulated; should note that the second floor proposed is over the existing house's first floor footprint.
Planning Commissioners noted the following items should be addressed:
• Long, two story wall on the right side needs articulation; and
• How will proposed project affect the Oak tree at the rear of the right elevation, is it accurately
placed on the drawings? Will it be removed, how will it be protected?
