Planning Commission Lands of Davison August 12, 1998 Page 2 • DISCUSSION Site Data: Gross Lot Area: 1.013 acres Net Lot Area: 1.013 acres Average Slope: 17.9% Lot Unit Factor: 0.842 Floor Area and Development Area: Area Maximum Proposed Existing Increase Left Development 10,136 9,744 8,670 +1,074 +392 Floor 4,720 4,579 3,680 +899 +141 Site and Architecture The applicant is requesting approval of a site development permit for a new second unit. The unit would include 899 square feet. The unit would include 2 bedrooms and full bathrooms, with a full kitchen and living area. The existing basement area of the main residence would be backfilled 1 to 2 feet along the front of the house to meet the Code requirement for basements. The height of the new second unit would be 14 to 15.5 feet high, as measured from the natural grade or building pad, whichever is lower. The south of the structure would be cut into the hillside 3.5 feet with a 5 foot high retaining wall behind the building to allow access around the structure. The north side of the structure would require up to 3 feet of fill, with 3.5 feet of fill proposed to the north of the structure to allow for access around the north side of the building. Please note that the left side elevation indicates more than 3 feet of fill for the structure, which is inaccurate based on the engineer's stamped site plan. The story poles have been placed on the site for the Commission's review. Proposed exterior materials include horizontal siding and a synthetic wood roof, matching the main residence. No skylights are proposed. The proposed structure matches the architectural style of the main residence. The roof pitch matches the pitch of the existing residence and the windows along the rear elevation match the window design along the front of the house. Exterior colors will be reviewed to match the residence or for conformance with the Town's adopted color board, prior to the painting of the second unit.
