I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant proposes to construct four buildings which will provide a total of 24 dwelling units on a .88 acre, previously graded parcel located as described above. The project will result in a net density of 27 dwelling units per acre which is within the General Plan range of 20-30 du/acre designated on this site. The project has been designed so that the dwelling units will be clustered around a centrally located recreation area. All of the resident parking for the proposed project will be located in a subterranean parking garage. The subject property is the last vacant parcel on the north side of Pirineos Way. Condominiums are located on the properties to the west, south and east. In addition, a condominium project is being constructed on property to the north of the subject property. II. ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1) Does the project conform with the development standards of the Condominium Ordinance? 2) Does the project conform with the design criteria of the Condominium Ordinance? III. DISCUSSION Development Standards - As previously mentioned this project has been designed to orient the units around the centrally located common recreation area. This recreation area will consist of a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, cabana, and barbeque area as well as a level grassy area. All of the one story units will have patios while the two story units will have either a patio and a balcony or two balconies. As proposed, this project will have approximately 278 square feet of recreational area per unit. All of the resident parking for the project will be located in subterranean parking garage along with six of the nine required guest parking spaces. In addition, there is sufficient on- street parking in front of this site to accommodate six vehicles. Most of the required storage will be provided by large storage closets located in the northeast and northwest corners of the underground parking garages. Additional storage will be provided by storage cabinets located at the head of each of the resident parking spaces. As shown on the parking plan, the two trash areas will be located adjacent to the stairways. The applicant has checked with Coast Waste Management and they do not have any problems with the locations of the trash containers. Staff feels that this project meets all the development standaards of the condominium ordinance. Design Criteria As designed, staff feels the proposed project meets all of the design criteria of the condominium ordinance. The proposed pro- ject will be compatible with the existing condominiums along Pirineos Way. The recreation area is centrally located and easily accessible to all of the units. As shown on Exhibit J, the proposed landscape plan, there will be a minimal amount of on-site paving. The applicant is requesting that the Commission approve the pro- ject at a density of 27 dwelling units per acre which approaches the maximum density of 30 du's/acre designated for .this site. Staff feels that this density is justified for the following rea- sons: 1) The project will have a greater amount of recreation area than the 200 square feet per unit required by the condomin- ium ordinance; 2) the project has been designated to minimize the amount of on-site paving and maximize the landscaping; 3) the project has been attractively designed to cluster the buildings around the central recreation area; and 4) the density of the project is compatible with the zoning and existing condominium projects on Pirineos Way. Overall, staff has found that the project meets both the develop- ment standards and design criteria of the condominium ordinance anS, theref9re, recommends approval of CT 81-20/CP- 165. IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Planning Director has determined that this project will not have a significant impact on the environment and therefore has issued a Negative Declaration, dated June 9, 1981. SB*"' V RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission APPROVE the Negative Declaration issued by the Planning Director and adopt Resolution No. 1834 recommending APPROVAL OF CT 81-20/CP-165 to the City Council based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein.
