Mr. Thomas Ferguson
Apri19, 2008
Findings for approval of an Administrative Site and Architectural Review Permit allow a 529
square foot first and second-story addition and interior remodel to an existing two-story
residence located at 910 Hazel Avenue.
The Community Development Director finds as follows with regard to File No. PLN2008-27:
The density of the proposed project site is 4.3 units per gross acre, which is consistent with
the General Plan land use designation of Low Density Residential (less than 6 units per gross
acre).
2. The proposed project is consistent with the R-1-6 (Single-Family Residential, 6,000 square
foot minimum lot size) Zoning District and meets the minimum setbacks, height restriction,
building coverage, floor area ratio, and parking requirements of a R-1-6 Zoning District
within the San Tomas Area Neighborhood.
3. The project is consistent with the development standards and design guidelines of the San
Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan.
4. The home consists of a 3,259 square foot two-story single-family residence with a building
coverage of 27%, and a floor area ratio of .37.
5. The project provides three covered and three uncovered parking spaces, where a minimum of
one covered and one uncovered parking space is required.
6. The height of the home is 25'-6", where the maximum height limit is 28'-0".
7. The proposed project is well designed and is architecturally compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood.
8. The proposed project complies the requirements of the STANP.
9. The proposed residence incorporates representative architectural features of homes in the San
Tomas Neighborhood including simple rectangular shaped forms, gable roofs, composition
shingle roof, stucco siding, and an attached garage.
10. The subject property is located on the south side of Hazel Avenue between Wilson Court and
Virginia Avenue.

11. The project qualifies as Categorically Exempt under Section 15301, Class 1 of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pertaining to the construction of additions to existing
dwellings.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Community Development Director further finds
and concludes that:
1. The proposed project is allowed within the applicable zoning district with Administrative
Site and Architectural Review Permit approval, and complies with all other applicable
provisions of this Zoning Code and the Municipal Code.
2. The proposed project is consistent with the City of Campbell General Plan.
3. The proposed project, as conditioned, will aid in the harmonious development of the
immediate area.
4. The proposed project is well designed and is architecturally compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood.
5. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be
made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions
of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.
6. The proposed development will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of the
neighborhood or the City as a whole.
7. The proposed project will contribute to the housing stock in the City of Campbell and serve
the housing needs of the community.
8. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the project and
the type of development project.
9. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the Conditions of
Approval and the impacts of the project.
