Item No. 4
MEP�O T0: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: CITY PLANNER
SUBJECT: 9 UNIT CONDOMINIUM PROJECT AT 616 ANSEL AVENUE
The attached Project Assessment describes the nine unit condominium project filed by
Robert Onorato for Gerald P. Girouard. The architectural plans date stamped June 6,
1980 show the garage level, typical floor plans, elevations and cross sections. The
landscaping and irrigation plans prepared by Wilson & van Deinse are reviewed by the
Park Director in his May 30 memo.
Copies of the project design were circulated to staff for comment. The June 3, 1980
memo from the Chief Fire Inspector advises he has "reviewed this proposal and has
no objections to approval". The June 18 memo from the Assistant City Engineer lists
9 Public Works conditions to be met at the time of the application for a building
permit.
During the Commission's June 9 meeting, staff expressed several concerns about the
proposed basement parking:
6/6/80 DESIGN
1. Eight of the "obstructed on one side"
parking spaces are 9' wide.
RECOMMENDED NEW STANDARDS
1. A 10' space is required.
2. One parking space, obstructed on two
sides, is only 9'-8" wide.
2. An 11' space is required.
3. The roll-up grill at the entrance 3. It should be possible to exit any
to the basement makes egress from parking space in 5 or fewer vehicle
the guest parking space very difficult; movements.
8-10 vehicle movements may be required
to exit this space.
Minor adjustments to the present column spacing in the basement would substantially
improve the first of the above problems. With these changes, for example, the line
of 10 parking spaces along the south basement wall would be deficient by only 2' in
the 100' length; a 2% deficiency will not adversely affect the regular use of these
spaces. Points 2 and 3 above are somewhat related, and both concern the one guest
parking space available immediately adjacent to the basement security gate. If the
security gate were omitted (or relocated to an alternative location), and a small
length of the adjacent retaining wall flaired at a greater angle, the use of this
space would be both safe and convenient. Given these changes, the basement design
would be very close to the new parking standards recently recommended to Council.
�ith the above qualification, the proposed condominium design meets zoning ordinance
requirements. It is also consistent with the open space standards specified in
Commission Resolution No. 7-79. The engineering requirements of Commission Resolution
No. 16-75 will be satisfied upon completion of the items in the Assistant City
Engineer's memo.
-2-
Given these findings, staff has no objection to the approval of a condominium permit
for this project. Recommended conditions for Commission review at the public hearing
are:
1. that the final working drawings for this condominium project be generally
consistent with the plans filed with this application;
2. that an amended basement plan be submitted for review and approval by the
Plann�ing and Public Works Departments;
3. that the conditions recommended by the June 18, 1980 memo from the
Assistant City Engineer be met; and
4. that the final landscaping and irrigation plans be a�proved by the Park
Director prior to the issuance of a building permit.
