ATTEST: !orjj~/L Secretary .. . . . AUGUST 26, 1980 TO: CITY OF ARCADIA PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT CASE NO: T.A. 80-8 PREPARED BY: CORKRAN W. NICHOLSON ASSISTANT PLANNER GENERAL INFORMATION APPLICANT: City of Arcadia This Text Amendment was initiated by the Planning Department pursuant to the directions of the Planning Commission. / REQUEST: Proposal to amend the R-2 division of the Zoning Ordinance. HISTORY On May 27, 1980, the Planning Commission, during a general discussion regarding present condominium development, expressed their concerns about the inconsistencies between the existing H-2 and H-3 zonin~ regulations. The Commission felt that the existing R-2 development standards, i.e., parking, driveway and open space requirements should be essentially the same as set forth in the R-3 standards. The Commission directed the Planning Department to provide an analysis which compares said R-2 and R-3 development standards in order to aide the Commission in their consideration to amend the R-2 section of the Municipal Code., Since there was a general concensus by the Commission to revise the R-2 regulations, staff did not proceed to draft a lengthy analysis of the above mentioned comparison. Instead, staff revised the R-2 regu- lations to incorporate the more restrictive sections of the existing R-3 regulations and presented said revisions before the Planning Commission on June 10, 1980, at which time staff was dlrected to in- itiate proceedings for a Text Amendment for approval of the revisions to the R-2 Code. Titles I and 2 of Article IX, Chapter 2, Part 5, Division 3 should be repealed and replaced with the attached proposed ordinance. The following is a summary of the proposed changes: 9253. PURPOSE. This section is the same as the existing Code. . 9253.1. GENERAL. Existing: This section restricts uses other than those uses as specified in the subsections. Proposed:, To revise this section to address buildings which may be converted into cooperative multiple dwellings. Analysis: This section is essentially the same as set forth in the existing Code with the exception that the proposed re- vision addresses buildings which may be converted into cooperative dwelling units, therefore, being consistent with Section 9255.1. of the R-3 Code. 9253.1.1. SINGLE-FAMILY DWELLINGS. This section specifies that one-family dwellings of a permanent charac- ter are an appropriate use in the R~2 Zone. 9253.1.2. TWO-FAMILY DWELLINGS. This section specifies that two-family dwellings of a permanent charac- ter are an appropriate use in the R-2 Zone. 9253. 1.3. MULTIPLE-FAMILY DWELLINGS'. . This section specifies that multiple-family dwellings of a permanent character are an appropriate use in the R-2 Zone.' 9253.1.4. ACCESSORY BUILDINGS AND USES. This section specifies that accessory buildings and uses for and inci- dental to any of the uses described in the preceding sections are ap- propriate in the R-2 Zone. 9253.1.5. SIGNS. This section is reformative of the existing R-2 Code. 9253.2.1. GENERAL. This section is the same as the existing Code. 9253.2.2: DWELLING UNIT DENSITY. This section is the same as the existing Code. 9253.2.3. BUILDING HEIGHT. Existing: 30 Feet . Proposed: 35 Feet -2- ~ 9253.2.3. (Contd.) . . Analysis: The increase in bUilding height would provide for more diversity in building and roof design and would be con- sistent with the height limitation of the present P.-3 Code. 9253.2.4. FRONT YARD. This section maintains the existing Code standard which requires a front yard setback of not less than twenty-five (25) feet. However, said section bas been revised to be consistent with the wording of the present R-3 Code. 9253.2.5. SIDE YARD. This section is reformative of the existing R-2 Code. 9253.2.6. REAR YARD. This section has been revised to be consistent with the wording of the present R-3 Code and requires the same 10 foot rear yard setback as set forth in the existing R-2 Code. 92~3.~.7. PROJECTIONS. This section has been revised to be consistent with the present R-3 Code, which permits balconies to extend or project into a required front, rear or side yard. In addition, trellis structures, patio covers, or awnings not exceeding eight feet (8') in height, may ex- tend or project into, a required rear or side yard. 9253.2.8. FLOOR AREA. This section is reformative of the existing R-2 Code. 9253,2.9. PARKING, Existing: Two parking spaces for each multiple family dwelling unit, one of which shall be covered. Guest parking shall be provided, at a ratio of .25 parking spaces per dwelling unit. All parking spaces shall have a 25 foot turning radius. Proposed: Two parking spaces for each dwelling unit, both of which shall be attached to and within 50 feet of said unit. Guest parking shall be provided at the rate of one parking space for every two dwelling units. -3- . . '. 9253.2.9. (Contd.) Each parking space shall have a 30 foot turning 'radius and/or a minimum of 30 feet of backout'space. Analysis: These changes were proposed in order to adopt the more restrictive R-3 parking standards, to provide additional off street parking, security, parking space designation and safe parking space access. 9253.2.10. DRIVEWAY REQUIREMENTS. This section has been revised to be consistent with the present R-3 Code and sets forth the same driveway requirements as the existing R-2 Code requires. However, the fOllowing has been added: "D. Each driveway adjacent to a garage or parking sp~ shall be a minimum of thirty feet (30') wide with a width of twenty feet (20') to be totally unobstructed from the pavement upward." "F. Community driveways shall be permitted provided that a C0venant is executed by the owners of all propertyaffected'tbereby." "K. 'No Parking' signs shall be placed at intervals of one hundred feet (100') along every required driveway." 9255.2.11. OPEN SPACE. This section has been revised to be consistent with the open space requirements of the present R-3 Code. However, this section maintains tbe existing requirement that three hundred (300) square feet of con- tiguous private open space be provided for each ground floor dwelling uni 1. 9253.2.12. SWIMMING POOLS AND SPAS. Existing: Private swimming pools may not be constructed in any required front yard, nor witbin three feet (3') of any side or rear lot line, nor within ten feet (10') of the property line on the street side of a corner lot. Proposed: "The minimum distance between swimming pools or spas and the first'floor access openings sball be as follows: A. When the diagonal dimentsion of a spa is less than nine feet (9'). distance shall be five feet (5'). swimming pool or Said minimum B. When the diagonal dimension of a swimming pool or spa is nine feet (9') or greater than, said minimum distance shall be fifteen feet (15') ," -4'- . . . 9Z53.2.12. (Contd.) Analysis: It is believed that a mlnlmum distance of five feet (5') will allow for the adequate placement of spas within a private open space area being adjacent to the ground floor dwelling unit., 9Z53.2.13. LENGTH. Same as existing Code. 9Z53.2.14. DISTANCE BETWEEN BUILDINGS. This section has been revised to be consistent with the R-3 Code and maintains the existing twenty (20) foot separation between buildings. 9Z53.2.15. LAUNDRY ROOM. Same as existing Code. 9Z55.2.16. UTILITY SPACE. Existing: One hundred (100) square feet of space shall be pro- vided on each lot containing four (4) or more dwell- ing units. Proposed: Lots containing more than two (2) dwelling units shall be provided with one hundred (100) square feet of en- closed storage space. 9Z53.~.17. TRASH AREA. Existing: Enclosed on three sides by a six foot high wall. Proposed: Enclosed on three sides by a five foot high wall. Analysis: This revision provides consistency with the R-3 Section of the Code. 9253.2.18. MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT. This section has been revised in order not to permit mechanical equip- ment to be located in any required front, side or rear yard. Said proposed revision is consistent with the R-3 Code, 9253.2.19. UTILITIES. This section is essentially the same as set forth in the existing R-2 Code. 9253.2.20. EXTERIOR LIGHTING. This section is essentially the same as set forth in the existing R-2 Code. -5- . . . 9253.2.21. MASONRY WALL. This is a new section specifying masonry walls to be constructed if a project contains three (3) dwelling units or more. ANALYSIS It is staff's oplnlon that the proposed revisions will provide the Ctity with a more comprehensive and uniform ordinance. Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning Department has prepared an initial study for the proposed project. Said initial study did not disclose any substantial or poten- tially substantial adverse change in any of the physical conditions with- in the area affected by the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna, ambient noise, and objects of historical or aesthetic sig- nificance, Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for this proj ect. ' Before the Planning Commission and City Council take action on this pro- j ect, t he Commission and Council should "move to approve and file the Negative Declaration and find that the project will not have a signifi- cant effect on the environment." RECOMMENDATION ,The Planning Department recommends approval of Text Amendment 80-8 as set forth in the staff report. After taking action on this application, the Planning Commission should direct staff to prepare a resolution ,for adoption at its next meeting. The Planning Commission's action shall not be final until adoption of the resolution. The appeal period for this action commences at the time the Commission adopts the resolution.
