Request: Design review for a first and second story addition and special permit for a detached garage at 1576
Cypress Avenue, zoned R-1 (C.S. 25.28.040 and C.S.25.28.035(e))
Property Owner/ Applicant: Pcter and Sandy Comaroto
Designer: JD & Associates APN: 028-295-130
General Plan Designation: Low Density Residential
Datc Submitted: February 25, 2002
Lot Area: 8,3000 SF
'Loning: R-1
Summary: The applicant is requesting design review for a first and second—story addition and a special permit for
a detached garage at 1576 Cypress Avenue, zoned R-1. The proposal includes demolishing the existing two-car
garage 20' x 20' (400 SF) providing side by side parking and constructing a new 504 SF tandem garage that would
be 36 feet in length and would provide one 10' x 20' covered parking space on-site. A special permit is required for
accessory structures more than 28 feet in depth or width. The remodeled house would have four bedrooms,
requiring one coved and one uncovered parking space.
The existing one-story house now contains 3,183 SF of floor area (0.38 FAR), including the detached garage. The
first floor addition would expand the kitchen and the family room and would add 190 SF along the right side of the
house. The 659 SF second floor addition would add two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The addition would
increase the floor area of the remodeled house to 4,138 SF (0.49 FAR), where 4,156 SF (0.50 FAR) is the maximum
allowed. The existing lot coverage is 35.3% (2,932 SF) and would increase to 39.5% (3,284 SF) where 40% (3,320
SF) is the maximum lot coverage allowed.
There is one covered parking space required for this four bedroom house. This space would be provided in the new
detached garage that is part of this proposal. The den is not considered a bedroom in terms of parking calculations
because the wall is open 50%to the hallway. The rear part of the new garage would be used for household storage
(approximately 210 SF/5.7% of the gross floor area of the house is proposed for storage in the accessory structure,
363 SF/ 10% of the gross floor area of the house is allowed for storage in accessory structure).
The applicant is requesting the following:
• Design Review for a first and second story addition; and
Special Permit for an accessory structure greater than 28 feet in depth.
