SUBJECT: Single-Family Design Review No. SFADR 17-19
PROJECT ADDRESS: 429 E. Norman Avenue
Dear Mr. Chan:
The public comment period for the Notice of Pending Decision ended on
August 16, 2017. Staff did not receive any comments during the notification
period. Staff determined that the design of the house is consistent with the
Single Family Design Guidelines. Therefore, the Development Services
Department has conditionally approved the single-family design review
project dated July 5, 2017, for a new 3,774 square foot, two-story,
Contemporary-style residence with an attached two-car garage at 429 E.
Norman Avenue, subject to the following conditions:
1. Prior to plan check submittal, the wooden siding along the front
elevation shall be reduced and the color shall be revised to match the
garage door.
2. 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.
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
Wednesday, September 6, 2017. You will be notified if an appeal is filed.
Approval of SFADR 17-19 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 September 24, 2017,
this approval will become null and void.
This approval shall expire in one year (September 7, 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.
