BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CAMPBELL APPROVING A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT PERMIT
(PLN2003-149) TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF FOUR
TOWNHOME UNITS ON PROPERTY OWNED BY MR. QUE NADER
LOCATED AT 549 W. RINCON AVENUE IN A P-D (PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT) ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MR. QUE
NADER. FILE NO. PLN2003-149.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law, and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the City Council did find as follows with
respect to application PLN2003-149.
1. The density of the proposed project site is 13.8 units per gross acre, which is consistent with
the General Plan land use designation of Low-Medium Density Residential (14-20 units per
gross acre).
2. The proposed project is consistent with the Planned Development Zoning Ordinance.
3. The site plan proposes the construction of four townhomes each on individual lots and a
common lot. All of the residences take vehicular access from West Rincon Avenue via a 19-
foot wide, common access driveway running along the easterly property line.
4. Private open space is provided for each unit by a private rear yard area. The rear yard areas
have a minimum depth of7 to 12 feet and an average area of 472 square feet.
5. The project provides 14 off-street parking spaces, where 14 spaces are required.
6. The completed project would consist of four new townhomes with a building coverage of
39%, landscaping coverage of33% and paving coverage of28%.
7. The proposed project will have a floor area ratio of 0.70.
8. The subject property is surrounded by a school to the north, townhomes to the west, a single-
family residence to the east and a park to the south.
9. The proposed massing and design of the buildings are consistent with other developments in
the surrounding area and recent townhome developments.
10. The project qualifies as Categorically Exempt under Section 15303, Class 3 of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the City Council further finds and concludes that:

Page 2
1. The proposed development will result in a more desirable environment and use of the land
than would be possible under any other zoning classification.
2. The development will be compatible with the General Plan of the City and will aid in the
harmonious development of the immediate area.
3. The proposed development will not result in allowing more residential units than would be
allowed by other residential zoning districts, which are consistent with the General Plan
designation of the property.
4. The proposed development will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of the
neighborhood or the City as a whole.
5. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
6. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the project and
the type of development project.
7. 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.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council approves a Planned
Development Permit (PLN2003-149) to allow the construction of five townhome units on
property owned by Mr. Que Nader located at 549 W. Rincon Avenue subject to the following
