MEMORANDUM

Planning Commission
Ruben Hurin, Senior Planner
Director's Report
Meeting Date: August 22, 2011
SUBJECT: FYI — REQUESTED CHANGES TO A PREVIOUSLY APPROVED DESIGN
REVIEW PROJECT AT 1416 CABRILLO AVENUE, ZONED R-1.
Summary: An application for Design Review and Special Permit for attached garage was
approved by the Planning Commission on June 13, 2011, for a new, two-story single family
dwelling and attached garage at 1416 Cabrillo Avenue (June 13, 2011, Planning Commission
Meeting Minutes attached). A building permit has not yet been issued.
The application was approved with a condition of approval that requires any changes to
windows, skylights or sun tubes in bathrooms 2 and 3 be brought back for review as an FYI.
This application for FYI includes changes to bathrooms 1, 2 and 3, as well as the landscaping
within the rear yard.
Please refer to the applicant's explanation letter and originally approved and proposed plans,
date stamped August 9, 2011, for a detailed description of the proposed changes. Planning
staff would note that the change to bathroom 2, which includes extending the shed dormer,
does not increase the floor area ratio since the height in this new area is less than 5'-0" in
height.
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.

Conditions of a�proval #2: (Letter dated June 24, 2011)
1. Added an awning style window to bathroom #2, including a small roof extension over that area, no
square footage was added, see revised second floor plan and roof plan.
2. Added a 24x24 Velux skylight to bathroom #3 as shown on revised second floor plan and roof plan.
3. Added an awning style window to bathroom #1 at the first floor, we reconfigured the bathroom to
design a operable window, see shown on revised floor first floor plan and elevation.
Others:
The Owners would like to rearrange the BBQ area from the approved drawings of June 13. We will now
divide the back yard in the longitudinal direction of the lot. Please see the new arrangement. I believe
this will give the Owners a bigger sense of space, as we push the seating area more into Mike Callan's
Landscape, instead of being near the house as it was originally designed.
Thanks,

FOR ATTACHED GARAGE FOR A NEW, TWO-STORY SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING AND ATTACHED
GARAGE (LINDA AND LARRY DUGONI, APPLICANTS AND PROPERTY OWNERS; AND TIM
RADUENZ. FORM + ONE. DESIGNERI STAFF CONTACT: RUBEN HURIN
Reference staff report dated June 13, 2011, with attachments. Senior Planner Hurin presented the report,
reviewed criteria and staff comments. Sixteen (16) conditions were suggested for consideration.
Questions of staff:
Are solar panels considered mechanical equipment? (Hurin — no, are only subject to height
restrictions, not an issue since they would be flush-mounted to roof.)
Chair Yie opened the public hearing.
Tim Raduenz, 3841 24`h Street, San Francisco; represented the applicant.
Addressed the Commission's comments from the previous meeting, maintained the Craftsman
design.
Commission comments:
■ Improved the massing considerably.
■ The balcony off of bedroom 2; looking at the side elevation, the sidewalls do not appear on the side
elevation. (Raduenz — this is an error that will be corrected.)
■ Left side elevation; what is it that has a radius? (Raduenz — a trim piece that corresponds with the
front details.)
■ Asked if there is a railing befinreen the side windows on the second floor? (Raduenz — only a pony
wall.)
■ Would like to suggest placing the solar panels on the flat roof. (Raduenz—would actually preferthis
as well, but must still consult with the solar contractor.)
■ In bathroom 3 and the laundry room, there are no windows, but there is a window looking into attic
space; what will be behind the window? (Raduenz — will blackout the windows. Would need to
change the pitch to the roof to accommodate a window into the bathroom.) Having no window in the
bathroom is a bit disconcerting.
■ Discussion regarding attic space and relocation of bathroom and laundry room.
Public comments:
Pat Giorni, 1441 Balboa Avenue; spoke:
Suggested installing a sun tube to provide light into the bathroom.
Additional Commission comments:
Would prefer a skylight into the bathroom, or some otherway of re-configuring the front and making
the floor area work to provide a window for the bathroom. (Raduenz — can add a skylight to
bathroom 2, revise the bedroom accordingly.)
Can make revisions and bring them back as an FYI.
There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed.
