DISCUSSION
Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is requesting approval of a minor modification to the eastern
side yard setback requirement to allow an addition to an existing two-story single-family
residence built approximately in 1979. The modification would allow for a seven-foot, eleven-
inch eastern side yard setback rather than the required eight-foot, eight-inch side yard setback.
Background: The subject property is currently developed with a 2,552 square-foot, two-story
single-family residence and is a flag lot located on the south side of Harriet A venue between
Elam A venue and Westmont A venue.
ANAL YSIS
General Plan Designation: The General Plan land use designation for the project si~,Low
Density Residential (less than 6 units per gross acre.) The density of the project site i~nits
per gross acre, which is consistent with the General Plan land use designation. ...:; ,f;,
The proposed project complies with the following General Plan Land Use Element Strategies:
Strategy LUT-5.2a: Neighborhood Compatibility: Promote new residential
development and substantial additions that are designed to maintain and support
the existing character and development pattern of the surrounding neighborhood,
especially in historic neighborhoods and neighborhoods with consistent design
characteristics.
Strategy LUT - 7 .2n: Consistency With Plans: Ensure that new development and
substantial remodeling projects are consistent with Specific Plans, Area Plans,
City Standard Details, and adopted Streetscape Standards to create a cohesive
design.
Strategy LUT-9.3e: Building Materials: Encourage the use of long-lasting, high
quality building materials on all buildings to ensure the long-term quality of the
built environment.
Staff Report - Planning Commission Meeting of April 8, 2003
PLN2003-32 - 940 Harriet A venue
Page 3 of 4
San Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan: The project site is located in the San Tomas Neighborhood
and is subject to the San Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan (STANP.) Staff finds that the
proposed project is consistent with the development standards and design guidelines of the
STANP.
Zoning Designation: The zoning designation for the project site is R-1-6 (Single-Family
Residential, 6,000 square foot minimum lot size.) The proposed addition to the single-family
residence is consistent with the development standards for the R-1 6 Zoning District, with
approval of a modification to the side yard setback requirement along the southern property line.
Use: The proposed project is surrounded by single-family residences on all sides. The proposed
project is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood in that the addition will not change the
use or character of the structure as a single-family residence. In addition, there are other similar
two-story residences within the neighborhood, including the homes on either side of the subject
property.
Design/Setbacks: The applicant is proposing an addition to an existing bedroom on the second
floor. The addition would utilize a gabled roof form, which is an extension of the existing
gabled roof form. The addition would match the existing building materials of the house
including stucco, window trim and a composition shingle roof.
The proposed addition meets the setback requirements for the western side yard, front yard and
rear yard areas; however, the eastern side yard setback does not meet the setback requirement.
The side yard setback requirement is the greater of five feet or one-half the height of the building
wall adjacent to the property line. The proposed wall height of the second story addition is 17
feet 4 inches, which requires an eight-foot eight-inch side yard setback.
Section 21.08.070 of the Campbell Municipal Code allows the Planning Commission to permit
lesser setbacks for a second story addition when it finds:
1.
That said side yard will not be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, comfort or
general welfare of persons in the neighborhood, or the City as a whole; and
2.
That said side yards will not unreasonably interfere with the ability of adjoining
property owners to enjoy access to sunlight, air, privacy and quiet enjoyment of
such owner's property.
Staff has determined that the proposed seven-foot, eleven-inch setback for the addition to the
second floor is in keeping with the above-referenced findings. The proposed addition would
extend an existing building wall line on the second floor, which has an existing setback of seven-
feet, eleven-inches.
The proposed room has a window that faces the residence to the south at 1481 Westmont Avenue
but does not pose a privacy impact because the adjacent home is setback approximately eighty-
feet from the proposed addition. Additionally, the adjacent property owner to the south has
submitted a letter stating that they have reviewed the plans and have no objections to the
proposed lesser setback (Attachment #3.)

From:
Melinda Denis, Planner I MY
Subject:
940 Harriet A venue - PLN 2003-32
Minor Modification to Sideyard Setback
Back2round
The subject property is currently developed with a 2,552 square-foot, two-story single-family
residence and is a flag lot located on the south side of Harri.et A venue between Elam A venue and
Westmont Avenue.
Proposal
The applicant is requesting approval of a minor modification to the eastern side yard setback
requirement to allow an addition to an existing two-story single-family residence built
approximately in 1979. The modification would allow for a seven-foot, eleven-inch eastern side
yard setback rather than the required eight-foot, eight-inch side yard setback.
Staff Analysis
The project site is located in the San Tomas Neighborhood and is subject to the San Tomas Area
Neighborhood Plan (STANP.) Staff finds that the proposed project is consistent with the
development standards and design guidelines of the STANP.
The zoning designation for the project site is R-1-6 (Single-Family Residential, 6,000 square foot
minimum lot size.) The proposed addition to the single-family residence is consistent with the
development standards for the R-l 6 Zoning District, with approval of a modification to the side
yard setback requirement along the southern property line.
Staff has determined that the proposed seven-foot, eleven-inch setback for the addition to the
second floor is in keeping with the above-referenced findings. The proposed addition would
extend an existing building wall line on the second floor, which has an existing setback of seven-
feet, eleven-inches.
