Background

The property is currently under construction and received hillside approval for the construction of a new residence on November 18th, 2018. 

 

New Single Family Residence

A new residence with approximately 3,800 ft2 of livable area is currently under construction on the property. 

 

Pool

A new pool is proposed north of the residence.  No pool was originally proposed on the property.  Pool equipment shall be screened by large native boulders.  Pool retaining walls shall be an earth-toned colored concrete (Adobe, LRV 14) and the pool finish shall be gray (Pebble Fina Classico, LRV > 38). 

 

Hardscape

Pool deck finish shall be an earth-toned colored concrete (Adobe, LRV 14) and coping tile shall be gray porcelain tile (Ivory, LRV > 38).  Materials with a light reflectance value greater than 38 percent are subject to committee approval. 

 

Landscape Lighting

Proposed landscape lighting includes four (4) path lights (98.5 lumens actual / 250 lumens allowable) and four (4) up lights (150 lumens actual / 150 lumens allowable.  All light sources shall have a maximum color temperature of 2800K.

 

Land Disturbance

A gross disturbance of 34.08% (15,178 ft2) currently exists on the lot and the building pad slope of 12.50% allows a disturbance of 45.38% (20,211 ft2) the lot.  The applicant has proposed a net disturbed area of approximately 41.32% (18,405 ft2), which is less than the allowable disturbance. 

 

Grading and Drainage

There will be grading associated with the construction of the property in order to properly retain the “pre vs post” storm water volumes for the 100-year, 2-hour rainfall event.  Stormwater generated onsite by the proposed pool development will be retained within a retention basin located west of the pool. 

 

Hillside Safety Improvement Plan

The Applicant submitted a Hillside Safety Improvement Plan in accordance with the Hillside Safety Improvement Measures and Process Manual per Section 5-10-9 of the Town Code.  The plan completed 45 days without any public comment.
