From bwinterhalder at ucdavis.edu Tue Dec 13 12:00:25 2005 From: bwinterhalder at ucdavis.edu (Bruce Winterhalder) Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 12:00:25 -0800 Subject: [OldNorth] Planning for 435 G Message-ID: <1134504025.6307.16.camel@dhcp101.anthro.ucdavis.edu> Old North Neighbors: Please take note of this meeting on the development planned for the SW corner of 5th and G Streets, currently a fenced vacant lot, formerly the site of a gas station. While this is (immediately) outside of the boundaries of ON, the request here to reduce on-site parking requirements to one/car per condominium is of interest because the extra automobiles generated by residents of the above-retail units almost surely will end up parked/stored in ON. Bruce >From City Staff: Neighborhood Meeting Invitation Concerning an application that has requested approval of a Preliminary Planned Development, a Final Planned Development, a Tentative Map and Design Review for a previously approved project at the southwest corner of Fifth and G Streets. This notice is to inform neighbors and other interested community members that an application has been submitted and that a neighborhood meeting has been scheduled to provide information and receive public comment on the project proposal described below. Project Address: 435 G Street Davis, CA 95616 Project Applicant: Chuck Roe and Mark Rutheiser 133 D Street, Suite F Davis, CA 95616 Date of Meeting: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 Time: 6:30 PM Location: Hattie Webber Museum 445 C Street, Davis, CA 95616 Project Description: The applicants of a previously approved mixed-use project at 435 G Street (PA #40-04), which will house 6,000 square feet of retail on the ground floor and eight townhouse units on the second and third floors, are requesting entitlements allowing the project to have a condominium plan which will provide eight for-sale residential units. A rezone of this parcel from Central Commercial to Planned Development Central Commercial will allow for a reduction in the parking requirement. The applicants are proposing eight on-site parking spaces, providing one space per residential unit rather than the twelve on or off-site spaces currently required, at 1.5 spaces per unit, by the Central Commercial district. The requested reduction of required parking would not preclude future owners from renting spaces in the Fourth and G Street parking structure as previously proposed and approved. On site parking is not required for ground floor retail in the Core area (Ord. 2148, Res. 04-51). In addition minor changes have been made to the exterior design and floor plan. The minor revisions to the exterior allow for weather protection at the residential entry and greater prominence of the corner elements. The floor plan has been revised to accommodate the addition of an elevator. The requested entitlements and proposed project are consistent with the Core Area Specific Plan (CASP) and the Davis Downtown and Traditional Residential Neighborhoods Design Guidelines. Consideration of this application requires Planning Commission review (tentatively scheduled for January 11, 2006) and City Council review to follow at which time public hearings will be held and action taken. The project application and plans are available for review at the Community Development Department, located at 23 Russell Boulevard. If you have questions or comments regarding the project or the application, please contact Heather Johanson at (530) 757-5610 or via e- mail at hjohanson at cityofdavis.org.

Might there be a question of adequate public notice here? Indeed, might you tell this ONDNA list of members the public notice activities in which you engaged and when? Thanks.
