addition/remodel at 1328 Oaklawn Road is denied and the decision
of the Planning Commission is affirmed consistent with the
following findings:
SECTION 2. FINDINGS.
a. The appearance of the proposed structure is not
compatible with existing structures in the neighborhood because
it is too massive in its particular design and placement on the
lot.
It is out of harmony and proportion in relation to other
structures in the neighborhood primarily because it presents an
excessively large profile when viewed from the street due to its
high pitch roof and its two-story design coverlng almost the
entire allowable width along the buildings setback line, without
sufficient
indentations
and
projections
to
mitigate
the
overwhelming, massive effect.
b. In relation to the neighborhood, the appearance is
excessive, not harmonious and can have a negative impact on the
characteristics and community goals of the area.
SECTION 3.
That the City Clerk shall certify to the
adoption of this Resolution.
Passed, approved and adopted this 20th day of January, 1987.
