Dear Mr. Chang:
The public comment period for the Notice of Pending Decision ended on October
3, 2017. Staff received two comments from neighbors regarding inconsistencies
on the original notice which were corrected in the Updated Notice of Pending
Decision that was mailed. The Development Services Department has
conditionally approved the single-family design review project dated
September 5, 2017, for a new 3,664 square foot, two-story, Traditional style
residence, with a 430 square foot, attached, two-car garage, and a 640 square
foot basement at 1734 Claridge Street. The proposed improvements will
encroach into the protected zone of eight (8) protected trees. The conditions of
approval are as follows:
• The project shall comply with the City’s Water Efficient Landscaping
Ordinance (WELO). The application shall be submitted with the plans for
plan check in Building Services.
• The project shall be developed and maintained by the applicant/property
owner in compliance with all of the recommended tree protection
measures listed in the Oak Tree Report and Addenda prepared for this
project.
There is a ten (10) day appeal period for this application. To file an appeal, a
completed Appeal Application form must be submitted to the Community
Development Division along with a $600.00 appeal fee by 5:30 p.m. on Monday,
October 16, 2017. You will be notified if an appeal is filed.
Approval of SFADR 16-43 and TRE 17-13 shall not be of effect unless the
property owner and applicant have executed and filed the enclosed Acceptance
Form to indicate awareness and acceptance of these conditions of approval.
The Acceptance Form is due now and if it is not received by November 5, 2017,
this approval will become null and void.
This approval shall expire in one year (October 17, 2018) from the effective date
unless a building permit is issued and the construction is diligently pursued, a
certificate of occupancy has been issued, or the approval is renewed.
An extension may be granted by the Development Services Director or
designee, or the Review Authority that approved the project for a maximum
period of one (1) year from the initial expiration date. An extension can only be
granted if the required findings can be made. Please note that acceptance of an
extension request does not indicate approval of an extension.
A building permit must be obtained prior to any construction activity. Please contact Building
Services at (626) 574-5416 to determine the type of documentation, plans, and fees for the
appropriate permit. This approval letter must be presented to Building Services to initiate the
permitting process.
