Re: 500 Campesina Road – Remodel and Addition to Existing Two Story Single Family Home
The meeting was called to order at 6:31 PM
ARB Members:
Bob Erikkson Ernie Boehr
Greg Medeiros- Chair
Lou Pappas
Mindy Huang
Philip Chan
Neighbors: None
Applicant/Owners: Ronald and Susanne Wu (Did not attend)
Plan Presentation: The Chair announced the public hearing was closed at our last ARB meeting on
December 16. At this same meeting, the ARB passed a motion to continue this project to resolve
outstanding issues regarding windows, stone veneer, replacement siding and landscaping. The applicant
has decided to withdraw the landscaping plan at this time and has been told that no landscaping
improvements can be made until the landscaping plan is approved.
A subcommittee met with the applicant to reach mutual agreement on the remaining issues. Mindy Chan
reported that Artisan Smooth V- groove style siding (6 5/8” x 8 ¼” x 12’) to replace existing shingle
siding on the north, west and south elevations. Sonoma Saladin Charcoal natural stone to replace
existing brick siding and extend along the Volante side. Both of these changes are on the revised plans.
The applicant also has agreed to exterior applied 12” x 12”window grids, but it is not well defined on the
revised plans
Public Comment: None
Summary of Board Comments:
-It is important that the revised plans accurately show what is to be built.
- Concerned that even though applicant has promised exterior applied grids, they will not be
included. It will be up to the City to enforce this.
- Tthe stone veneer has a more natural cut and is less modern than the previous stone proposed.
Would prefer the use of the warm grays.
- If the applicant has concerns with the ARB action, there is a 10-day appeal period that ends on
Monday February 14, since February 12 falls on a Saturday.
Motion by Mindy Huang to approve the plan with the condition that the landscaping plan is no
longer a part of the submittal and is not approved. Exterior applied 12” x 12” grids will be applied
for those windows identified on the window schedule with grids. Also window trim will be
maintained or restored with an equivalent style of trim. Second: Ernie Boehr. Motion passed
unanimous.
Meeting adjourned 6:50 p.m.
