BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A MINOR
MODIFICATION TO A SIDEYARD SETBACK (PLN2002-46)
TO ALLOW A SECOND STORY ADDITION TO AN EXISTING
TWO-STORY SINGI.E-FAMILY RESIDENCE ON PROPERTY
OWNED BY MR. DAVID R. WALKER LOCATED AT 1134
LENOR WAY IN AN R-l-6 (SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL)
ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MR. DAVID R.
WALKER. FILE NO. PLN2002-46.
After notification and public heating, as specified by law, and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the heating was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the Planning Commission did find as
follows with respect to application PLN2002-46:
The proposed project is consistent with the R-1 (Single-Family Residential, 6,000 square
foot minimum lot size) Zoning District and development standards, with approval of a
modification to the side yard setback requirement along the southern property line.
The development of the project will not increase the existing density of the project site
and has a density of 5.6 units per gross acre, which is consistent with the General Plan
density of less than 6 dwelling units per gross acre.
3. The proposed eight-foot side yard setback along the southern property line will suffice as
a minimum side yard setback requirement for the proposed second story addition.
4. The second story, in the area pertinent to the modification, does not align with any
second story window on the adjacent property.
5. The proposed project is well designed and is architecturally compatible with the
surrounding neighborhood.
6. The proposed project is surrounded on all four sides by single-family residential uses.
7. The project qualifies as a Categorically Exempt project per Section 15301, Class 1
(additions to existing structures) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Based on the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The proposed project is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
o
The reduced side yard along the southern property line will not be detrimental to the health,
safety, peace, comfort or general welfare of persons in the neighborhood or the City as a
whole.

o
The reduced side yard along the southern property line will not unreasonably interfere with
the ability of the adjoining property owners to enjoy access to sunlight, air, privacy or quiet
enjoyment of such owner's property.
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.
There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the Conditions of
Approval and the impacts of the project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission grants a Minor
Modification to a Sideyard Setback (PLN2002-46) to allow a second story addition to an existing
two-story residence on property owned by Mr. David R. Walker at 1134 Lenor Way, subject to
the following conditions:
Where approval by the Director of Community Development, City Engineer, Public Works
Director, City Attorney or Fire Department is required, that review shall be for compliance with
all applicable conditions of approval, adopted policies and guidelines, ordinances, laws and
regulations and accepted engineering practices for the item under review. Additionally, the
applicant is hereby notified that he/she is required to comply with all applicable Codes or
Ordinances of the City of Campbell and the State of California that pertain to this development
and are not herein specified.
