ISSION f -5- STAFF REPORT DATE : June 11, 1980 TO : Planning Commission FROM : Bill Hofman, Associate Planner SUBJECT: CT 80-9/CP-60/PUD-2O/SDP 80-6 - WOODWARD - Request for a 300 unit tentative tract map to include an 86 unit condominium permit, a 214 unit planned unit development, and a site development plan generally located on the west side of Melrose Avenue extended, between Corintia Street extended and Alga Road extended in the RDM-Q zone. I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting a 300 unit tentative tract map, 86 unit condominium permit, 214 unit planned unit development and a site development plan on 42 acres located as described above (see Exhibit "B") . The overall density of the project is 7.14 dwelling units/ acre. The subject site slopes to the east towards - future Melrose Avenue. The gradient is steepest to-the west and gradually decreases to a relatively flat area along Melrose Avenue. The site will be graded to create buildable pads as shown on the cross section labeled Exhibit "I". The project will be built in seven phases. The phasing system is designed to provide as much flex- ibility as possible in the development of the project. Phase I must precede Phase 2, 3 and 5, however, the final maps for Phase 2,3, and 5 need not record in any particular order, Phase 3 must precede Phases 4, 6, & 7, and again, the recordation of Phases 4,6 & 7 do not need to be in a particular order. Conditions have been worded such that each phase will stand on its own at the time of its recordation. The applicant is proposing a variety of housing types throughout the project. The condominium portion (Phase VI) will consist of 86, one and two bedroom units ranging in size from approximately 600 to 1000 square feet. The planned unit development will consist of 122 attached units arranged in duplexes, tri-plexes and four-plexes and 92 detached units on approximately 4500 square foot lots, The applicant's interest is to sell the units at prices to accommodate a variety of income types. The applicant has indicated at today's market prices, the lowest priced condominium units will sell for approximately $70,000. c .€- 0. . .. . . .. . . .. .. 11. ANALYSIS Planning Issues (CT 80-9) 4 1. Will the proposed phasing plan ensure adequate public dedications and improvements so that each phase will stand on its own at the time of recordation? As mentioned, the proposed project will be built in seven phases as shown on Exhibit "A". The applicant is proposing flexible phasing so that the sequence of map recordation is not necessarily in one particular order. Staff's main concern is that each recorded phase have adequate public access and be able to stand on its own in the event other phases do not record. The specific phasing plan requires the recordation of Phase I prior to recordation of any other phase. At the time phase one records, access to the property must be provided via Alga Road. Also, prior to approval of each phase, all necessary school and park fees required of such phase will be submitted to the city by the applicant. After recordation of Phase I, Phases 2, 3, 4 and 5 may record in any order desired by the applicant. As conditioned, each phase will have adequate public access and improvements no matter which is recorded first. Similarly, Phase 3 must record in conjunction with either Phase 4 or 7 to ensure adequate street circulation for the project. It should not be noted that the phase boundaries are not rigidly set and minor adjustments may be approved by the City Council at the time of final map approval if such adjustments are in substantial conformance with the approved tentative map. Staff is satisfied that as conditioned the proposed phasing will ensure sufficient dedication and improvements so that each phase will have adequate public access and stand on its own. The Planning Commission is directed to Resolution No. 1644 for review of the conditions of approval as they relate to phasing. Planning Issues (PUD-20) 1. Can sufficient facts be found to make the mandatory findings required for approval of a planned unit development? a. Are all design criteria met? b. Are all development standards met? -2- .. .. Design Criteria As mentioned, the applicant is proposing 122 attached units consisting of duplexes, tri-plexes and four-plexes and 92 detached single family units as shown on Exhibit "B". is 5.9 du's/acre. The applicant will dedicate and improve two public roads through the project connecting Corintia Street with Alga Road. Also, Corintia Street, Melrose Avenue and Alga Road will be improved as half streets to ensure adequate access to the project. Staff has found these roads to be well integrated into the development and that they are not a dominant feature in the overall design of the project thus meeting the design criteria relating to circulation. The total density of the PUD portion of the project The adjacent parcel to the north of this project at one time was designated as an elementary school site by the San Marcos Unified School District. This is no longer the case since the San Marcos School Board voted to exchange this site for a more suitable location on El Fuerte Street. The applicant may purchase this property and extend his development onto this site at a future date. To ensure consistency of the overall design of the project's circulation system, two private driveways are stubbed into the adjacent parcel to provide future access. Staff is satisfied that the location of these private driveway stubs will maintain design flexibility and provide sufficient access to the adjacent parcel. With.respect to open/recreational space (please see Exhibit "B") , the applicant is providing two recreation areas on site: 1) a large active recreation area will be located near the center of the development and will consist of a large swimming pool, jacuzzi and large open grass area; and 2) a smaller recreation area will be located in the north portion of the project con- sisting of barbeques and benches. The total usable common recreational area in combination with the private patio and backyard space of each unit exceeds the 400 square feet/unit required by the planned unit develop- ment ordinance, A pedestrian trail system will connect the common recreation areas, the units and the public streets minimizing conflicts between automobiles and pedestrians. It is well designed and integrated into the project and will provide efficient access for each unit to all common facilities on site. One final design concern of staff's is the relation- ship of the units to Melrose Avenue. Since Melrose is a prime arterial expected to have high traffic volumes, staff is recommending a condition requiring a building -3- .. .. . .. setback of 35' from the curbline of Melrose and the construction of sound attenuation walls along the rear property lines of units backing onto Melrose. Staff feels these provisions will substantially reduce the noise generated by vehicles traveling along Melrose Avenue and minimize the potential impacts. Overall, the planned unit development is well designed, comprehensive and interrelated. Staff has found sufficient facts as detailed herein to find that all design criteria have been met. Development Standards The applicant has met all development standards of the planned unit development and in most cases has exceeded these standards. Parking for individual owners will be provided in garages, and visitor parking will be on- street for detached units and in parking bays for attached units. Recreational vehicle storage space will be provided offsite, on the south side of Corintia Street as shown on Exhibit "A". The standard of 40 square foot of storage area per unit has been met. Staff is satisfied that the location of the storage area will be accessible to the residents of the project. Sewer service for the proposed project will be provided by the San Marcos Sewer District. The project will utilize "Type I" reclaimed water irrigation system maintained and operated by San Marcos. Also, all open areas throughout the project will be landscaped. Slopes created by grading between the detached single family lots and along the western boundary of the project will be planted to ensure erosion control. All other development standards of the PUD Ordinance have been met, therefore, staff can find sufficient facts to make the required findings relating to development standards. Planning Issues (CP-60) 1. Are all design criteria met? 2. Are all development standards met? Design Criteria The condominium portion of this project is shown as Phase VI on Exhibit "A". The condominium site is on 5.8 acres and consists of 86 total units; 56 one bedroom units and 30 two bedroom units. The overall density of the condominium project is 14.8 units per gross acre and the total building coverage is 289,. -4- A- i 111. The basic design of the condominium focuses around a central recreational area consisting of a large pool and jacuzzi. The units are staggered to maximize openness and a pedestrian walkway system connects the units, open recreation areas and parking areas. The parking areas are located around the perimeter of the complex and the applicant has mixed carports with open spaces so that assigned carports are located as close to the corresponding units as possible. Overall, the project is comprehensively designed and well integrated into the site. Staff is satisfied that all design criteria have been met as it relates to this project. DeveloDment Standards A total of 196 parking spaces have been provided for the condominium project (86 covered, 86 open, and 24 on-street visitor parking) meeting the minimum requirement of the condominium ordinance. With respect to open/recreational areas, the applicant has exceeded the required 200 sq.ft/unit. The recreational areas consist of a large pool and jacuzzi, as mentioned, and a common barbeque and bench area on the south end of the project. Also, the applicant is providing decking and patios for each unit. Laundry facilities will be provided in the recreation building, central to all units. Storage space will be provided in the garage for those units having such, and in the carports for all other units. All other development standards have been met or exceeded.
