PC Res 3170RESOLUTION NO. 3170
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
CAMPBELL APPROVING A MODIFICATION (M 98-09) TO THE SIDE YARD
SETBACK REQUIREMENTS TO ALLOW A SECOND STORY ADDITION TO A
RESIDENCE ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1171 FEWTRELL DRIVE IN AN R-
1-6 (SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF
MR. RON BAHLMAN. FILE NO. M 98-09.
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 Planning Commission did find as follows with
respect to application M 98-09:
The proposed project is consistent with the R-l-6 (single-family residential, 6,000 square
foot minimum lot size) zoning district and development standards, with the approval of a
modification to the side yard setback requirement along the eastern property line.
The proposed five (5) foot side yard setback along the eastern property line for a length
of 13 feet will suffice as a minimum side yard setback requirement for the "study room"
portion of the second story addition.
o
The proposed project is well designed and is architecturally compatible with the
surrounding neighborhood.
The size and orientation of windows on the proposed second story addition have been
designed to mitigate privacy impacts on the adjacent property to the east.
The development of the project will not increase the existing density of the project site
which is 5.4 dwelling units per gross acre and is consistent with the General Plan density
of less than 6 dwelling units per gross' acre for this area.
Based upon 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.
The reduced side yard along the eastern 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.
The reduced side yard along the eastern 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.
