Property Owners: Rick and Carole Soss APN: 029-273-190 Applicant and Designer: Rick Soss Lot Area: 7,875 SF General Plan: Low Density Residential Zoning: R-1 CEQA Status: Article 19. Categorically Exempt per Section: 15303 - 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, is hereby approved. Summary: The applicant is requesting design review for a second story dormer addition to an existing single story house located on an interior lot at 110 Bloomfield Road, zoned R-1. The total square footage of the current house is 2,554 SF (.324 FAR) where 4,020 SF (.51 FAR) is the maximum allowed. The applicant is proposing to convert existing attic space into habitable living area. The attic living area would add 397 SF to the habitable area of the house; the house would increase to 2,951 SF (.37 FAR). The applicant has recently received building and planning approval to add a new dormer to the east elevation of the house. Because the initial dormer complied with the code requirements that if the enclosed area under the roof addition is 100 SF or less; the roof addition's pitch matches the existing roof pitch; and the height of the roof addition is not higher than the highest ridge of the existing roof; P.C. Commission review was not required. The approved dormer measures 10' x 10' and encloses approximately 67.5 SF of floor area. The applicant is presently finishing construction on the approved dormer. With this proposal the applicant is requesting approval for a second dormer located at the rear of the house. The proposed dormer would measure 10' x 10', enclose approximately 48.75 SF and will match the exact design of approved dormer. The applicant is required design review because with the proposed dormer they will exceed the 100 SF allowed, 116 SF proposed. Included in this proposal is the addition of stairs to access the newly created habitable space in the attic. The applicants are not increasing the roof height or building envelope. All other zoning code requirements have been met by the proposed addition. The applicant is requesting the following: � Design review for a second story dormer addition to an existing single story house (CS 25.57.010); EXISTING PROPOSED ALLOWED/REQ'D SETBACKS Front: (IS` flr) 8'-0"* No Change 15' or block average �2nd flr� 16'-6"* No Change 20'-0" Side: (left) 4'-0" No Change 4'-0" Side: (right) 11'-6" No Change 4'-0" Design Review for a Second Story Dormer Addition I10 Bloomfield Road EXISTING PROPOSED ALLOWED/REQ'D Rear: (ls` flr) 89'-0" No Change 15'-0" (2nd flr) 89'-0" No Change 20'-0" LOT COYERAGE: 33% No Change 40% (2,592 SF) (3,150 SF) FAR: 2,554 SF 2,951 SF 4,020 SF** 0.324 FAR 0.374 FAR 0.51 FAR # of BEDROOMS: 3 No Change ---- PARKING: Two covered in detached No Change One covered in garage garage (24'-0" x 30'-0"), (10'-0" x 20'-0") + 1 uncovered in driveway + 1 uncovered in driveway HEIGHT: 19'-0" No Change 30' or 2�/2 stories DH ENVELOPE: N/A Meets requirements See code *Existing, non-conforming **(32% x 7,875 SF + 1100 SF + 400 SF for Detached Garage) November 13, 2001 Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission study meeting on November 13, 2001, the Commission requested the following (November 13, 2001 P.C.
