PROJECT INFORMATION:

Planning File Number: PLN150500

Owner: Panattoni, Carl D and Mary Jane TRS

Project Location: 1476 and 1482 Cypress Drive, Pebble Beach

APNs: 008-455-007-000, 008-411-017-000 and 008-455-008-000

Zoning:  “LDR/1.5-D (CZ)” Low Density Residential/1.5 acres per unit-Design Control District in the Coastal Zone

Agent: Aengus L. Jeffers, Attorney

Plan Area: Del Monte Forest Land Use Plan

Flagged and Staked: Yes

 

SUMMARY:

The applicant is requesting approval to merge three legal lots (1.18 acres, 1.04 acres, 0.17 acres) into two parcels (1.66 Ac, 0.79 Ac).  This application also includes demolishing an existing residence on the existing 1.18-acre parcel and constructing two new homes:

-                     12,064 square foot residence lot on the 1.66-acre parcel (Parcel 2). 

-                     2,204 square foot residence lot on the 0.79-acre parcel (Parcel 3).

The minimum parcel size for this zoning district is 1.0 acre, so the second parcel would not conform to zoning ordinance standards.  The proposed design for Parcel 2 exceeds the Pescadero Watershed impervious surface coverage limitation.  In exchange, the applicant proposes to “transfer” coverage limits from one parcel to another by limiting the development potential of Parcel 3 in order to compensate for exceeding the limitations on Parcel 2.  Also, staff finds that a looping driveway design is not consistent with the Del Monte Forest LUP requirement for simple and direct access.

 

Generally staff supports the LLA proposal.  However, we recommend conditions requiring:

1.                     Both newly created parcels conform to zoning lot size standards (minimum 1.0 Ac),

2.                     Proposed house design be modified consistent with the requirements of the zoning district (Floor Area Ratio, Site Coverage, etc)

3.                     Visual access be provided across the site by providing visual access through the front fence and when the house is reduced in size that the foot print be modified to provide visibility corridors across the property; and
