�?'reliminary Design Review
1516 Caro! Avenue
History: This project was considered by the Planning Commission on April 24, 2000. The Planning Commission
voted to deny the project without prejudice (see attached minutes dated 4/24/00). Concerns expressed by the
Planning Commission included the following:
• think the encroachment toward the street is not warranted, could be entrance on the side, there is 27'
between curb and the house, plenty of room to maneuver from the street;
• cathedral ceilings are proposed on the second floor, the plate line could be dropped and add ambience to
rooms;
• the bed wall on the second floor needs a window on top, or the roof plane of the bed wall could be
separated from the other roof plane;
• make it less like a box on top of a box; and
• look at windows on sides as well, there is a lot of blank stucco.
The applicant has submitted revised plans date stamped May 8, 2000. The floor area of the second floor has been
reduced, and the front entry has been changed so the overhang over the porch projects 3 feet, which is the same
as the existing porch overhang. Because it is a replacement of an overhang with a nonconforming setback, no
front setback variance is required.
The applicant was also directed to go back through the design review process with a different reviewer. The
applicant decided to take the option of using the new process and chose to schedule a preliminary study meeting
before the Planning Commission.
