1 I , <br />Proposed Proiect ' <br />In conformance with the Specific Plan Land Use Plan and related policies, the applicant proposes <br />a total of 8 lots, on the project site'consisting of 6 Low Density Residential lots, 1 new Hillside <br />Residential home and ~ existing homesite to remain. , <br />Low Density Residential , <br />The 6 Low Density Residential (LDR) lots are located along a cul-de=sac roadway which will , <br />connect to the proposed stub street on the Lonestar (Centex) site to the north. The lots are ' <br />20,000 s.f. minimum in size and conform to the lot depth and width requirements set forth in the <br />Specific Plan. T'he; lots all have stepped pad foundations to minimize grading and blend with <br />existing topography as called for in the Specific Plan Residential Design Guidelines. All <br />proposed cut/fill slopes have a maximum slope of 3:1 (horizontal:vertical). "Rounded Landform , <br />Grading" is used to achieve a natural transition between graded areas and existing' terrain. , <br />Approximately 10 oak trees (1 heritage) will be removed as a result of the proposed grading. No <br />specific building architecture is proposed at this time. . <br />Hillside Residential <br />The applicant proposes 2 estates homesites (1 acre minimum) near the top of the hillside. One <br />homesite is the existing home which will be demolished when construction begins on the upper <br />estate home. The applicant proposes a second homesite on the ridge above the existing home, <br />as provided for in the Specific Plan. <br />The estate home is to be an Italian Villa as described below: <br />• 2=story with a partial basement with an attached 4=car garage 12,395 sq. ft. of living space <br />with a 770 sq. ft. basement. <br />• Detached Structures include: <br />Guest House of 880 sq. ft. <br />Pool House of 130 sq. ft. <br />WineryBarn (two-story) of 2,200 sq. ft. <br />• The home was designed with the center section to be two-story and with the sides stepping <br />down to a one-story elevation. <br />• The home will be of earthen colors to match and blend into the hillside. <br />The home was situated as shown for the following reasons: <br />1) From a visual standpoint, the home's location allows it to be screened from offsite <br />view by the trees that are directly above the existing home. See Sheet 5 of 6 of <br />RJA's plans. <br />2) The only feasible driveway access is to wind around the knoll and enter the home <br />site from the east side. Access from any other direction is difficult due to the <br />steepness of the site. <br />3) Any other potential home location above the existing home is too steep or covered <br />G:W dminVobs-00\0011 O] \sarich.des.wpd <br />
