DISCUSSION
Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit to allow
a 446 square foot addition to an existing two-story residence at 1215 Bracebridge Court. The
project site is located in the San Tomas Neighborhood on a cul-de-sac named Bracebridge Court,
which takes access off of Pollard Road, just south of its intersection with Burrows Road.
Background: On December 27, 1977, Ordinance No. 1134 was adopted by the City Council
approving a zone change from R-M (Multiple Family Residential) to P-D (Planned
Development/Low Medium Density Residential) and approval of plans, elevations, and
development schedule to allow construction of 40 single-family residential units as a duplex-
style development on property know as 1275 Pollard Road. The zone change from R-M to P-D
allowed separate ownership of each unit rather than ownership of a duplex structure.
ANAL YSIS
General Plan Designation: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Low to
Medium Density Residential (6-13 units per gross acre.) The density of the proposed project site
is 6.7 units per gross acre, which is consistent with the General Plan land use designation.
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 (ST ANP). Staff finds
that the proposed project is consistent with the development standards and design guidelines of
the STANP for Low-Medium Density projects (6-13 units per gross acre) in a P-D Zoning
District.
Zoning Designation: The zoning designation for the project site is P-D (Planned Development).
The P-D Zoning District allows for new construction or additions to be approved with a
Conditional Use Permit for relatively small projects. The proposed project will be consistent
with the zoning ordinance with approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
Site Layout and Architecture: The site plan proposes an addition on the right side of the first
floor and the front and rear of the second story. The proposed addition creates 1,183 square feet
of living space on the first floor, 1,095 square feet of living space on the second floor and a 412
square-foot garage. The existing wood shakes will be replaced with vertical wood siding on the
second story to match the adjacent neighbor. The new stucco, windows, wood trim and
composite asphalt shingles will match the existing residence and the adjacent neighbor in terms
of color and style.
Staff Analysis: The proposed project is well designed and compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood. Since the P-D zoning does not stipulate minimum setbacks or a maximum
height, FAR or lot coverage, the project has been designed to meet the minimum setback
requirements of the existing development and the R-I-6 (Single-family Residential) development

standards. The applicant has worked with staff to revise the plans so there are no outstanding
issues with the project.
Site and Architectural Review Committee: The Site and Architectural Review Committee
reviewed the project on August 27, 2003. The Committee was supportive of the application as
proposed and had no additional comments or conditions of approval.
