Background
The residence is currently under construction. The slope south of the residence was disturbed during the demolition of the previously existing residence but a restoration plan is proposed. The restoration plan includes revegetating the bare area with native plants and restoring the grades where altered.
New Single Family Residence
The proposed project shall continue to construct a new two-story residence with approximately 6,300 ft2 of livable area. There are no proposed changes to the overall height or design of the structure.
Spa
The spa has been proposed to be relocated from the northeast balcony to a patio area southwest of the residence.
Miscellaneous Changes
A larger mechanical yard is proposed at the northeast corner of the residence. New designs are provided for the driveway gate and chimney cap. Garage doors have been increased in height from 8 ft to 10 ft, but the height of the overall structure is not affected.
Building Materials
The applicant has proposed a change from the previously approved brown (DEA164, Autumn Bark, LRV 18) finish on the body and trim to an alternative brown body (DE686, Aged Whiskey, LRV 19) and darker brown trim (DEC755, Cocoa, LRV 13). Roofing material has been changed from a dark bronze (LRV 7) metal roof to a brown and gray concrete tile blend (Kings Canyon Blend, LRV 11). All other materials remain as originally proposed. All materials shall have an LRV of 38 or less as required.
Hardscape
The patio tile has been substituted with a brown travertine tile (Nimara Noche Nuev, LRV 30). The same material shall be used for the pool edge and coping. All other materials remain as originally proposed. All materials have an LRV of 38 or less as required.
Building Lighting
No modifications to the existing building lighting plan are proposed.
Landscape Lighting
Landscape lighting includes twenty-seven (27) path lights (34 lumens actual / 250 lumens allowable), six (6) up lights (59 lumens actual / 150 lumens allowable), and two (2) wall lights (10 lumens actual / 250 lumens allowable). All light sources, if approved, shall have a maximum color temperature of 3,000K as noted on Stipulation #8. The previously approved landscape lighting included seventeen (17) path lights (250 lumens actual / 250 lumens allowable), three (3) up lights (100 lumens actual / 150 lumens allowable), and three (3) wall lights (180 lumens actual / 250 lumens allowable). All proposed lighting counts and lumens are code-compliant.
Landscaping
All undisturbed areas shall be revegetated with Turpentine Bush, Tree Leaf Bursage, Desert Buckwheat, Native Mesquite, Jojoba, Blue Palo Verde, Golden Eye, Foothills Palo Verde, Pink Fairy Duster, Desert Marigold, Desert Lupine, and Desert Blue Bells.
