PC Res 4196RESOLUTION NO. 4196
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A SITE AND
ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW PERMIT TO ALLOW THE
CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCE ON
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 730 KENNETH AVENUE. FILE NO:
PLN2015-11
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
The Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to file number PLN2015-11:
1. The project site is zoned R-1-10 (Single Family Residential) on the City of Campbell
Zoning Map.
2. The project site is designated Low Density Residential (3.5 units/gr. acre) on the City of
Campbell General Plan Land Use diagram.
3. The project site is located at the northeast corner of Kenneth Avenue and Waldo Drive,
within the San Tomas Area, subject to the San Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan.
4. The proposed project consists of the construction of a 3,478 square-foot residence,
including retention of an existing detached garage that will be incorporated into the new
residence.
5. The proposed project will result in a building coverage of 26% and a Floor Area Ratio
(FAR) of .25, where a maximum 35% building coverage and .45 floor area ratio are
allowed in the R-1-10 Zoning District.
6. Pursuant to the San Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan (STANP), construction of a
single-family home on an "undeveloped lot" within the R-1-10 Zoning District requires
approval of a Site and Architectural Permit review by the Planning Commission.
7. The Community Development Director determined that although the existing detached
garage will be retained, the ancillary nature of the structure and the extent of its exterior
remodel, will nonetheless render the lot "undeveloped" upon demolition of the existing
single-family residence.
8. The proposed project will provide four parking spaces (two covered, two uncovered),
satisfying the applicable parking requirement.
9. The proposed project incorporates representative architectural features of homes in
the San Tomas Neighborhood including simple rectangular shaped forms and
gabled roofs.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact and pursuant to CMC Section 21.42.020, the
Planning Commission further finds and concludes that:
1. The project will be consistent with the General Plan;
2. The project will aid in the harmonious development of the immediate area; and
Planning Commission Resolution No. 4196

Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pertaining to the construction of single-family
dwellings.
