Resolution No. 2021-07 <br />Page 3 of 10 <br /> <br />service, public spaces and use, and other amenities. Lastly, <br />the proposed density of 50 dwelling units per acre (du/ac) is <br />below the density bonus provisions in the California Density <br />Bonus Law for extremely low-income rental projects (80- <br />percent density bonus) which allows for 52 du/ac on the <br />project site. <br />3. The deviation is necessary to make it economically feasible for the <br />Applicant to utilize a density bonus authorized for the development <br />pursuant to section 41-1603. <br />The proposed project requires three deviations through <br />incentives/concessions: (1) lot width and depth; (2) tandem <br />parking; and (3) open space; as well as two deviations <br />through a waiver in (1) permitted building types; (2) <br />landscape standards; and, a reduction in onsite parking <br />standards. The six deviations are described as follows: <br />Lot Width and Depth (Incentive/Concession) <br />The minimum lot width required for the Stacked Dwelling <br />Building Type is a range between 125 and 200 feet. The <br />overall site is comprised of four lots that would be <br />consolidated into one developable lot. Even after lot <br />consolidation, the development site would have a smaller <br />than average lot width, compared to most lots in the area. <br />Lots in the area range in lot depth and width but are on <br />average 250 feet by 250 feet. In comparison, the site would <br />have a lot width and depth of 100 feet and 150 feet, with a <br />deviation of 25 feet for the minimum required lot width. <br />Although the site has a deviation of 25 feet in the lot width, <br />the applicant’s stacked dwelling building design still <br />accomplishes the intention of the TZC by providing a <br />compatible design and balanced composition of massing on <br />the project site, with appropriate interior floor area and <br />individual unit sizes. <br />Tandem Parking (Inventive/Concession) <br />The TZC provides affordable housing incentives by allowing <br />for tandem parking not to exceed 30-percent of the required <br />parking per residential unit. Of the required twelve parking <br />stalls, only two parking spaces are permitted as tandem <br />parking. As designed, ten of the total twelve parking stalls <br />would be tandem, which exceeds the allowable. Maintaining <br />the required tandem-parking standard would result in a <br />complete site redesign involving more of the site area
