Adam Birnbaum, Chairman of the Old Encinitas Community Advisory Board ATTEST: Tom Curriden, Associate Planner TC/9/93250DR.RES (1-12-94) ATTACHMENT "A" Resolution No. OE 94-01 Case No. 93-250 DR Applicant: Eric Thorman construction Findings: (Code Section, Factual Circumstances, Reasoning, Conclusion section 30.16.010 (B.7) reads as follows: "Buildings may be approved through the Design Review process for a maximum height of 30 ft. if it can be found that the portion of the building outside the standard envelope maintains some of the significant views enjoyed by residents of nearby properties, and that the building is compatible in bulk and mass with buildings on neighboring properties." Facts: The applicant proposes to add a second story addition to an existing residence which rises to 28 ft. 6 in at its highest point above adjacent grade. The site slopes down moving westerly at an approximate 7% gradient. Homes across Wotan Dr. from the subject site are one story homes. The site presently contains numerous tall, mature trees. Discussion: Based upon the evidence presented in the application and plans as well as at the hear ing , the Board determined that the proposed addition will not impede significant views since any westward views from across the street are already obstructed by the existing home and/or mature landscaping on the site and similarly that there are no significant easterly or north-south views available. The second story addition will not be incompatible in bulk and mass with the area since it will be constructed only over the westerly approx. 1/2 of the existing home (on the downhill side of the property away from the public right-of-way) and there are other 2 story homes in the area, including the property to the immediate south of the subject site. Conclusion: Therefore, the Board finds that construction of the addition as proposed will not adversely impact the significant views enjoyed by other properties in the area and is compatible in bulk and mass with neighboring properties.
