B. CASE NUMBER: 88-275 DR
APPLICANT: Coast Savings and Loan Association
LOCATION: East side of Saxony Road between Quail
Hollow and Brittany.
DESCRIPTION: Modification of Major Use Permit to allow
a change in product type from 156 attached
townhomes to 110 single family detached
zero-lot-Iine homes.
ENVIRONMENTAL
STATUS: Environmental assessment pending.
Motion: Michael Goldstein - To recommend to the Planning
Commission denial of the project based upon the following
findings:
The location, size, design or operating characteristics of the
proposed project will be incompatible with or will adversely
effect or will be materially detrimental to adjacent uses,
8 residences, buildings, structures or natural resources, with
consideration given to, but not limited to:
JK/05/CABI3-1171wp5 5(2-28-89-4)
. .
.
a) The inadequacy of public facilities, services and
utilities to serve the proposed project in that Saxony
Road from the intersection of Quail Gardens Drive and
8 south to Leucadia Boulevard is a fairly steep grade road
with numerous access points which has not been shown to
be able to adequately accommodate the additional
approximately 1060 average daily trips projected for the
development; and
b) The unsuitability of the site for the type and intensity
of use or development which is proposed in that the
project is proposing exclusive use areas of approximately
4,000 square feet for two story houses which range in
size from approximately 1,600 to 2,000 square feet with
limited separation between the housing units relative to
contiguous exclusive use areas. The size of the houses
and the overall appearance do not reflect a density which
is consistent with a rural atmosphere desired by the
community and as exhibited by the single family dwellings
which are above and to the west of the project site; and
c) The harmful effect, if any, upon environmental quality
and natural resources of the City are in question since
the latest environmental impact report for the project
was completed prior to construction of surrounding
residential areas and does not consider the total impact
of the project upon community character, traffic
generation, open space use and biological resources.
8 Although the project may be in substantial accord with
the original project, public controversy is such that
environmental concerns need to be reevaluated in light
of changing circumstances relative to community
character, traffic generation, open space use and
biological resources; and
d) The project fails to comply with the design review
regulations and guidelines in that the project as
proposed is too dense for the developable portion of the
site and the project design featuring two story, Mission
style stucco homes with red tile roofs presents a
monotonous appearance and is not consistent with the
desired rural character of the area and;
e) The project does preserve substantial open space but the
limitations of use placed upon the open space will not
offset the density of the project nor provide a
substantial public benefit which will allow for the
project to be approved with a project density greater
than mid-range of 92 units.
