C
You
and
good
evening
I
stated
the
Appin
has
applied
for
a
use
permit
to
construct
a
new
single-family
dwelling.
The
site
itself
is
located
on
the
northwest
corner
of
san
anselmo
and
san
benito
avenue.
I
would
like
to
point
out
that
the
applicant
has
applied
for
a
lot
line
adjustment
application
in
the
interest
of
creating
two
developable
parcels.
If
you
turn
to
exhibit
e
within
your
staff
report,
you'll
notice
that
there's
two
new
lots
that
will
be
created
through
this
lot
line
adjustment
application.
C
The
new
lot
3
is
the
interior
lot
and
has
five
thousand
twelve
square
feet
of
total
area
and
will
front
directly
onto
san
anselmo
avenue
newly
created
corner
lot,
which
is
identified
as
new
lot
number
to
consist
of
6329
square
feet
of
overall
area
and
it's
located
directly
and
has
frontage
on
san
anselmo
avenue
and
san
benito
avenue.
The
proposal
before
us
tonight
is
to
construct
a
new
single-family
dwelling
on
the
newly
created
two
interior
lot
that
fronts
directly
onto
san
anselmo
avenue.
C
The
lot
line
adjustment
application
can
be
approved
at
staff
level
and
does
not
require
planning
commission
approval.
As
stated,
the
applicant
is
proposing
to
construct
a
new
two-story
single-family
dwelling.
The
first
floor
will
contain
a
living
room,
family
room
office,
kitchen
and
one
bathroom.
The
second
floor
will
contain
three
bedrooms
and
two
bathrooms
combine.
The
home
will
amount
to
2329
square
feet
of
living
area
with
an
attached
two-car
garage.
C
The
project
was
reviewed
by
the
Architectural
Review
Committee
at
their
June
meeting,
the
Architectural
Review
Committee
forded
the
project
on
to
the
Planning
Commission,
with
a
favorable
recommendation,
with
some
very
minor
staff
recommendations.
Those
recommendations,
including
continuing
the
brick
base
along
the
left
side.
Elevation
modifying
the
interior
garage
based
I
have
a
minimum
in
tier,
a
dimension
of
20
feet
wide
by
20
feet
deep
and
to
incorporate
windows
along
the
top
portion
of
the
garage
door.
The
applicant
has
addressed
all
of
staff's
recommendations
and
updated
the
plans.
C
Accordingly,
I
would
like
to
point
out
that
the
proposal
before
tonight
is
meeting
all
of
the
development
standards.
Specifically,
they
are
meeting
the
FA
our
requirement
or
threshold
lot
coverage
threshold
setbacks
in
height
requirement.
Staff
does
find
that
the
proposal
complies
with
the
residential
design
guidelines.
They
are
incorporating
setbacks.
The
second
floor
set
back
from
the
first
story
below
additionally.
The
second
floor
is
meeting
all
the
daylight
clean
options
identified
within
the
residential
design
guidelines.
I'd
also
like
to
point
out
that
there
is
consistent
window
type
and
trim
around
all
four
elevations.
C
The
admin
has
also
incorporated
a
number
of
design
features
to
help
and
de-emphasize
the
garage,
most
notably
they
are
using
a
split
garage
door,
design
I'm.
Additionally,
there
is
a
trellis
feature
located
just
above
the
garage
and
staff
also
finds
that
the
proposed
large
porch,
which
measures
six
feet
deep
by
approximately
twenty
point,
five
feet
wide,
will
help
de-emphasize
the
garage,
even
more
staff,
did
send
the
required
300-foot
public
notification
and
a
courtesy
notice
to
all
property
owners.
C
We
received
one
comment
from
a
neighbor
regarding
the
appearance
of
the
lot
that
that
property
owner
was
specifically
concerned
with
the
weeds
on
site
and
the
lack
of
perimeter
fencing.
Since
that
time,
the
applicant
has
reduced
or
eliminated
three
weeds
on
site
and
the
applicant
plans
on
securing
the
site
with
perimeter
fencing
once
the
existing
single-family
home
is
demolished
on
the
corner
of
san
anselmo
and
san
benito
avenue.
C
Overall
staff
supports
the
project
and
we
do
find
that
the
new
home
is
consistent
with
the
design
and
scale
of
the
neighborhood
and
complies
with
all
aspects
of
the
residential
design
guidelines.
Staff
would
like
to
add
one
condition
of
approval,
and
that
is
requiring
that
the
lot
line
adjustment
application
be
approved
and
recorded
prior
to
building
permit
issuance
with
that
staff
recommends
that
the
Planning
Commission
approve
the
project
based
on
findings
affect
one
through
seven
and
conditions
of
approval,
one
through
27,
with
the
added
condition
regarding
the
lot
line.
A
D
C
E
Could
you
mean
my
name
is
Costas
Copernicus
and
I
am
the
property
owner
as
well
as
mr.
spera
schalkwyk
through
sitting
there
we
are
just
as
matt
says
we
are
trying
to
build
a
new
single-family
residence,
two
stories
on
the
bordering
the
park,
the
lomita
park
on
Sanus
elmo.
Is
we
worked
very
hard
with
Matt
to
plan
this
out
architectural
e
to
look
good
and
to
fit
with
the
neighborhood?
That
was
something
that
we
were.
You
know
very
worried
about,
because
we
didn't
want
to
change
the
neighborhood.
E
Guidelines,
yes,
as
far
as
the
landscaping
goes,
we
are
you
know,
planning
to.
We
have
planned
to
go
with
the
landscaping
that
the
city
has
recommended
California
local
native
plants,
drought
resistant
besides
that
we're
working
very
hard
to
with
the
city
to
make
sure
that
this
project
looks
good
and
meet
your
requirements.
Thank.
F
Now,
staff
may
be
aware
that
the
happy
thing
that's
after
this
one
5b
I
have
a
similar
issue
with
this
one,
which
is
the
roof
ones.
You
have
two
roof
lines:
I
look
at
the
front
elevation.
Yes,
one
on
the
top
left
that
looks
like
two
houses
to
me:
it's
not
an
integrated
building,
architectural
II
I,
don't
agree
with
the
roof.
The
two
roofs
that
you
have
and
I
personally
will
not
approve
this
project.
If
this
roof
line
exists,.
E
F
F
B
B
F
Differ
these
two
other
the
top
and
the
bottom
rope
elevations
the
front
and
the
rear
ones
that
have
fallen.
Would
wear
this.
The
left
side
and
the
right
side
looked
like
two
distinct
buildings
to
me
and
they're.
Not
it
doesn't
look
like
a
single
family
doing
it.
It
looks
like
the
duplex
to
me
I
architectural
II.
I
don't.
I
don't
think
this
work
now
talking
about
square
footage,
I'm
not
talking
about
design
guidelines,
I'm
just
talking
about
just
the
way
the
roof
interacts
with
the
second
floor.
