The Committee agreed on the following recommendations:
1. Make improvements to the landscape plan to include erosion control and runoff
conditions, and comply with storm water requirements. Staff confirmed that
Stormwater Control Plan was submitted.
2. Parking — Work with City staff to increase parking by three spaces in order to get
to a goal of 32 or more spaces. Some options may be tandem parking, reduction
of the landscaping parameters to increase parking, give preference to residents
who work at ASH or those who do not own a vehicle by use of deed -restricted
units, move trash enclosure (to a convenient spot for WM) to increase parking, and
dedicate spaces.
3. Architecture — Design should include renovations to existing units and the new
units should be consistent with units already there, upgraded in functionality and
units should have an appeasing interior/exterior so that residents want to maintain
their spaces.
The project will move onto Planning Commission for final approval.
3. DESIGN REVIEW OF A COMMERCIAL CENTER AT 2450 AND 2470 EL
CAMINO REAL
The project consists of the construction of an approximately 20,000 square -
foot commercial center on an existing vacant parcel with associated parking
and site improvements. The project is exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act.
Recommendation: Staff requests the DRC review the proposed design and
direct the applicant to make any modifications to the site or building design as
necessary. (PRE20-0103)
