General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Environmental Assessment, Height Variation, Grading Permit and Site Plan Review (Case No. ZON2010- 00025): 10 Chaparral Lane Planning Commission Minutes September 13, 2011 Page 12 ATTACHMENT - 207 Assistant Planner Kim presented the staff report, giving a brief description of the property. She explained the applicant is requesting to move the current boundary line in a more northerly direction so that the only flat area on the lot can be within the residential zone, which would allow him to develop on the flat area and not on the extreme slope. As such, she noted that staff is generally in support of the proposed land use and zoning designation change request. In conjunction with the boundary line relocation request the applicant is requesting approval to construct a new residence. She reviewed the residence and the necessary permits, as discussed in the staff report. She stated staff is generally in support of the proposal, however there are two issues of concern. She discussed staff's concern with the grading on the property, explaining that caissons are proposed outside of the property line on the neighboring property. She noted this is new information that came to staff's attention after the staff report was prepared. She stated the applicant is willing to change, the location of the caissons, however they will still be on the neighboring property but off of the easement. She explained that this was not part of the original proposal and staff did not analyze it as part of the project. Further, the applicant needs to get the neighbor's authorization to put improvements on their property. Staff would also like the City Geologist to review the caisson location. She also explained the trail issues with this property, noting the development of the house will block a trail access in the area. She stated the applicant has agreed to look into relocation of the trail access through the property. Commissioner Lewis asked how a continuance will help the trail issue. Director Rojas clarified that the City cannot require that the applicant provide an easement for the trail use, however the applicant is open to exploring various options. Staff wants to research the issue and see if it is viable for a trail in this area. Chairman Tomblin opened the public hearing. Frank Colaroutolo (applicant) stated he was available to answer any questions. There were no questions at this time. David Breiholz (14 Bronco Drive) stated he was in favor of keeping the continuity of the trail in tact and encouraged the City and the applicant work together to make that happen. Joe Oliveri (6 Chaparral Lane) stated he has concerns about any building on this property, noting that the proper has been unstable. He explained that at one time he had the opportunity to buy the property, however his own geologist recommended against it. He stated that the history of the prior geology evaluation deemed the property unstable for construction. He also expressed concerns with development as there will then be limited access to the canyon by the fire department. He felt the Planning Commission needs to visit the site and walk the property to evaluate the area. He did not think this was something that should just be discussed on paper.
