From john.meyer at live.com Tue Aug 27 07:39:32 2019 From: john.meyer at live.com (John Meyer) Date: Tue, 27 Aug 2019 14:39:32 +0000 Subject: [OldNorth] 601 D Street In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Emily, Thanks for checking-in on this. There was no further review of this project by the Old North board since the preliminary review. That said, the board has always been generally supportive of the addition of second units and continued investment in properties. The board does not meet again until the 3rd week in September, so we will not be able to formally comment in time for the Planning Commissions hearing. That said, one item does jump out at me on the plans you shared. The geometry (and, therefore, the usability) of the parking space off the alley. Can you actually make the turn into it? And, with the gate shown as opening in to the space is there adequate space for the vehicle? Another consistent neighborhood issue is the preservation of our tree canopy. The plan seems to indicate preservation of the large sycamore. -jm ________________________________ From: Emily Shandy Sent: Sunday, August 25, 2019 2:23:46 PM To: John Meyer Subject: 601 D Street Hi John, I'm reviewing my packet for this week's Planning Commission meeting, and noticed you sent a letter of support on behalf of ONDNA for the proposed ADU and garage at 601 D Street back in April. You noted at the time that no elevations were available for you to review, and I wanted to ask whether the board had been given the opportunity to review the proposal with more detail on the design, elevations, and site plan and whether they had any additional comments or concerns or were still supportive of advancing the project. If you haven't seen it, the packet attachment with the project details is available at: http://documents.cityofdavis.org/Media/Default/Documents/PDF/CityCouncil/Planning-Commission/Agendas/20190828/05B-601-D-Street.pdf Thanks for your time, Emily Shandy -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

These are to be considered at our next meeting on September 19. As I mentioned, I will be away on this date. Greg graciously agreed to take minutes at that meeting. Recall that this will be our annual meeting with the board election. It requires electronic notice 21 days in advance (by this Thursday) and a printed hand delivered notice no later than three days before the meeting. As noted in the minutes, we also discussed asking attendees at the meeting whether they are interesting in 4-way stop signs at the 6th street intersections. If the Public Works Department is to take this matter to the city council for approval they would want some sense of neighborhood support. -jm -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
