FINDINGS & ORDERS
PLANNING ACTION: PA-2013-00836
SUBJECT PROPERTY: 140-142 N Third Street
O"ER/APPLICANT: Ann and Martha McIntyre
DESCRIPTION: Request for a Residential Site Review approval to construct a new residential
dwelling unit at the rear of the property adjacent to the alley for the property located at 140 and
142 Third Street. The existing second dwelling unit located directly behind the front residence
will convert to a guest house. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Low-Density
Multi-Family Residential; ZONING: R-2; ASSESSOR'S MAP: 39 1E 09BA; TAX LOTS:
8200
SUBMITTAL DATE: June 13, 2013
DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: June 25, 2013
STAFF APPROVAL; DATE: July 26, 2013
FINAL DECISION DATE: August 3, 2013
APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: August 3, 2014
DECISION
The subject property is located at 140 and 142-N Third Street. The subject and adjacent
properties are zoned R-2, Low Density Multi-Family Residential and are located within the
Ashland Railroad Addition Historic District. The parcel is 7,100 square feet in size and is located
on the east side of Third Street, between B and C Streets. The parcel has alley access on along
the east property line.
The subject property has an approximate three percent down slope to the north. There are
number of small, volunteer plum trees along the south property line towards the rear of the
property and some larger stature deciduous trees near the primary, residence near Third Street.
The trees at the front of the property will not be affected by the development at the rear of the
property. The applicant has requested approval to remove the four plum trees.
The property contains two residential dwellings. There is a 832 square foot, single story, small,
hipped-roof wood frame bungalow at the front of the property constructed in 1941. The existing
home is designated as the Newell & Beulah Whetstone Rental House in the Ashland Railroad
Addition Historic District inventory document and is considered `Historic Contributing'. The
house retains high integrity and effectively relates to its historic period of development.
Directly behind the primary residence is a 500 square foot concrete block building that had been
converted to a residential unit at some time in the past, it was likely a garage. At the rear of the
property adjacent to the alley is a single car garage that is on both the rear and the south (side) .
property lines. The garage is a pre-existing, non-conforming structure as it does not comply with
the setbacks required in today's codes. The applicant has proposed to shore up and rehabilitate
the structure as it is in disrepair but the garage will stay in its current location and will not
change in size, shape or use.
The project requires a Site Design Review approval since it involves the construction of a new
second dwelling unit. The Site Review approval criteria require that the proposal comply with
PA #2013-00836
140 -142 Third Street/adg
Page 1
applicable ordinance, the Site Review for Multi-Family Development chapter and the Site
Design and Use Standards.
The permitted density of the parcel.is two units. Two residential units ate proposed. The existing
rental directly behind the primary residence on Third Street is proposed to be modified and the
kitchen cooking facilities will be removed. The structure is allowed as a guest house for use of
guests of the tenants at the property, or can be used as detached living space. It is not permitted
for short term accommodation or as an additional rental. A condition of approval to this effect
has been added.
The applicant has proposed a 1,082 square foot, single-story bungalow with a small front porch
that will face the alley. The unit is proposed to be historically compatible with the existing
structure using horizontal lap siding, historically appropriate trim sizes and profiles, energy
efficient. double hung or casement windows. The City of Ashland Historic Commission reviewed
the proposal at their July 3, 2013 meeting and recommended that the applicant provide a clear
vertical separation between the windows between four and one half to six. inches. in width and
that consistent header and door heights be shown and that the double hung windows be
consistent heights. The Maximum. Permitted floor area for the parcel is 2,414 square feet. The
proposal complies with the permitted floor area for the parcel.
The two dwelling units, one unit with three bedrooms and the new unit with two bedrooms
require four parking spaces. There is an existing surface parking space in the driveway accessed
from Third Street, the applicant has proposed two surface parking spaces adjacent to the existing
single car garage accessed from the alley, and the property with more than 22-feet of
uninterrupted curb frontage qualifies for an on-street-parking credit. The applicant has not
indicated the surfacing method of the parking spaces, according to the Ashland Municipal Code,
all required parking areas shall be paved with concrete, asphaltic, pervious paving or comparable
surfacing. The parking spaces shall be surfaced in accordance with the code. prior to the issuance
of a certificate of occupancy for the new dwelling unit. Additionally, the existing non-
conforming garage is shown as a parking space. Due to the size of the garage and that ample
parking is available on-site and with a street parking credit; it is unlikely that a vehicle will park
in the garage. Staff received a written comment expressing concern about the use of the garage
as a vehicle parking space and the availability of adequate back-up space for the new parking
spaces. The applicant has proposed the required number of parking spaces which comply with
the backup dimension to meet the proposed use of the site. Additionally, the garage has been
standing for at least 50-years as evidenced in historic aerial photographs and has functioned as a
parking space. Staff does not believe that the garage should be prevented from use if the property
owner decides to use it as a parking space at any point in the future. As proposed, there is not a
path from the vehicular parking spaces to the front units, a footpath will be required. This will be
required to be shown on the building permit submittals and installed prior to the certificate of
occupancy, a 'condition to this effect has been added. The applicant has proposed to provide five
bicycle parking spaces in the re-habilitated garage.
The application addresses that adequate capacity of public services is available to the site.
Electric service to the existing second unit exists on-site. Since no new service will be required,
the applicant is not required by code to modify the existing services to underground. New water
and sewer lines are also proposed for the units and identified on the site plan provided. There is
available water and sewer service in the adjacent public right-of-way. The applicant will be
PA #2013-00836
140 -142 Third Street/adg
Page 2
required to address storm drainage and catchment for the parking areas at the rear of the
property.
One of the public comment letters received from a number of neighbors stated that vehicle traffic
on Third Street is a concern and the letter states that there is concern about additional traffic
generated by the proposed dwelling unit. Based on the most recent traffic counts (2002) the
section of Third Street from C to B had 953 vehicle trips per day. Third Street is identified as a
Neighborhood Street with 1,500 or less motor vehicle trips per day and is fully improved along
the property frontage with curb; gutter, sidewalks and a parkrow. According to the International
Traffic Engineer (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, multi-family residential developments with two
bedrooms generate approximately six to twelve vehicle trips per day. The new unit will not have
a significant impact on the number of vehicle trips per day and due to the presence of a previous
second unit on the property, the new units' impacts will be negligible.
The applicant has proposed to provide individual trash and recycle areas adjacent to the units.
The containers are shown within the required setback areas and within the three foot fire fighter
pathway. The container placement shall be out of the three-foot setback and screened from the
right-of-way.
There are no street trees in front of 140 / 142 Third Street. The application includes a conceptual
landscape plan and the applicant plans to upgrade the landscaping as part of the proposed
development. The application was reviewed at the July 3, 2013 City of Ashland Tree
Commission meeting and they recommended a final landscape and irrigation plan, mitigation
trees in accordance with AMC 18.61.084 and that a street tree be planted in the parkrow.
Staff finds that the construction of a new, second residential unit, converting the existing second
unit to detached living / guest space and associated site improvement complies with the
requirements of the Ashland Municipal Code and the Site Design and Use Standards for Multi-
Family development in the Historic District. The application with the attached conditions
complies with all applicable City ordinances.
The criteria for Site Reviews Approval are described in AMC Chapter 18.72.070, as follows:
A. All applicable City ordinances have been met or will be met by the proposed
development.
B. All requirements of the Site Review Chapter have been met or will be inet.
C. The development complies with the Site Design Standards adopted by the City Council
for implementation of this Chapter.
D. That adequate capacity of City facilities for water, sewer, paved access to and through
the development, electricity, urban storm drainage, and adequate transportation can and
will be provided to and through the subject property.
Planning Action 2013-00836 is approved with the following conditions. Further, if any one or
more of the following conditions are found to be invalid for any reason whatsoever, then
Planning Action 2013-00836 is denied. The following are the conditions and they are attached to

Dear Amy,
Thanks for returning my call on the 5th and for the information you provided. The undersigned neighbors to the
proposed construction are concerned about the general appearance of our neighborhood (streets and alleys) and
the number of vehicles that will be added given the proposal in either iteration... two 2 bedroom units plus guest
house or one three bedroom and one- 2 bedroom unit.
Each of us have spent or are spending substantial amounts of time and money upgrading our homes (rather more
than we are likely to recover) and we have no little concern about the impact of less than caring renters ...or less
than caring owners for that matter. One trip down our block illustrates the point. You have advised me that the
new owner(s) of 140-142 N. 3d have kept a rather strict eye on her tenants at a nearby location ...but she lives
there which makes it substantially easier to police.
The planned addition will produce additional and larger bedrooms as perhaps as many as six to eight vehicles
compared to the two vehicles that previously were there. It is not uncommon for one bedroom to produce two
vehicles when students are the tenants. !
fi
The additional vehicles would add to an already often overloaded parking venue (especially on first Fridays and
weekends when we serve the theater goers). The situation has already worsened with the new construction and
loss of parking on Lithia between 1st and Pioneer.
On the block of N. 3d between B and C Streets, including lots adjacent to the corners are twenty sites (see !
enclosed map); seven of the lots are owner occupied, eleven are rentals and two are devoted to the B&B which is
owner occupied... though she rents and resides in the lot next to the B&B and part of the complex.
All of the lots on the odd numbered side of 3d Street and three of the four corner lots on the primary block provide
off street parking. On the other hand, one rental has five motorcycles and a flat-bed truck parked on the street
and driveway and another has two cars and a motorcycle on the street or grass between the street and the
sidewalk. Said rental also has a massive water truck parked in the back alley filling two to three parking spaces
diagonally. The rental at 156 N. 3d has 4 units and one off street parking space. A fourth rental (on B Street has
four to five cars regularly parked on the street ...the latest having been towed there.
Per a letter dated November 15, 2012 from the Ashland City Administrator to one of us...it is not against the law j
to park on the street and just leave it there...." Because of this code structure we see vehicles parked on the
streets for weeks without being moved. One such vehicle, owned by a renter on the even numbered side, was
parked in front of 143 and 155 N. 3d, not running, for several months during 2012-2013 although its owner had
replaced it with a new vehicle.
Thank you for considering our concerns,
Bob and Suzanne Etienne Pete and Mari Tardiff Tr cy Egan

5-8 July 2013
City of Ashland Planning Division

Ashland, Oregon 97520
Hello, Amy Gunter and Planning Officers:
My name is Priscilla Hunter. I am the resident and property owner at 143 Fourth
Street and owner and innkeeper of Beau Soleil Vacation House, a family
cottage also used for tourist lodging at 145 Fourth Street. Both houses sit on the
double lot just across the alley from the rental property at 140-142 Third Street
now owned by Martha McIntyre. I have lived at my present address since I took
out a mortgage on my house in 1989.
This letter is in regard to Planning Action PA-2013-00836 for Tax Lots 8200 as
described in a Notice of Application for a Site Review that I received from the
City about eight days ago on 28 or 29 June 2013 and a corrected Notice of
Application that I received on 3 July 2013.
I write to you about some of the proposed site changes at 140-142 Third Street
that have been proposed by Ann and Martha McIntyre, as affected by Code
1872-070, Section D. I believe this code regards the effects of the McIntyres'
site changes on my property and its value. I was advised by Ms. Amy Gunter to
reference this code but have not yet been able to go myself to the City offices to
see the language of that code for myself, so I follow her counsel in this matter
as I write this letter. I also have not yet had sufficient time before the
submission-of-comments deadline of 4:30 pm on 9 July 2013 to arrange for
helpful photos to accompany my comments in this letter. I hope to be able to
provide them as an addendum before the meeting of the final decision makers
on this application, providing the place, date and time of that meeting are made
available to me. [NB: Digital photos of problem areas have been obtained and
will be sent to the Planners by email, along with a copy of this letter.--PH]
I point out that the two weekends, one the long Fourth of July weekend, that
have occurred since I began to try to understand the implications of the first
notice of application and the conditions and implications of the information in
them for my property, have interfered with the normal opportunities I might
1
have had for getting advice for or discussing with anyone or preparing my
comments on these issues.
First in my comments regarding the McIntyres' application to change the
property at 140142 Third Street, I want to say that I am generally happy about
and encouraged by improvement to the rear of that Third Street property, such
as the ones that the McIntyres propose to effect. The back yard of their rental
property is fully visible from the back of my property, to me and others, such as
guests staying at Beau Soleil. Some or all of the back yard as well as its back
fence and a weed patch in front of that fence are unavoidable sights when
anyone enters or leaves my property walking or driving down the alley or looks
out windows on both levels of my guest cottage or sits on the cottage deck off
the upstairs bedroom. I sincerely welcome the proposed removal of the wide
swath of weeds that usually have filled the back part of the 140-142 Third Street
grounds by the alley on our side of the back fence of that property. It is of
interest to note that this strip of land has also occasionally been used through the
years by owners and tenants of 140-142 Third Street as a single parking space
lying parallel to the alley and has presented no problem to me or my property.
I do however have three serious concerns about the changes currently proposed
by the McIntyres for 140142 Third Street.
Two Concerns
One of these concerns is in regard to a specific characteristic of the location of
the new spaces for tenant parking that will lie across from my property and off
the alley between the old garage and the neighbor's wooden fence. Another
concern is in regard to the designation of the old garage as a parking space in
the application documents and so potentially in future interpretations of the
function of the old garage.
The old garage is already a non-conforming structure, due to its location on the
property and in relation to neighboring properties. It is designated as a "third"
parking space in the official site review documents, though the site diagram
shows that at the moment it is to be used for the parking and storage of up to
five bicycles. The documents also state that there will be additional bicycle
storage spaces not shown on the site diagram and they are to be located outside
the garage somewhere.
I will give more information about these parking areas further on.
The Third Concern: In a Nutshell
2
The third area of concern I have I will address fully in this section. It is my
concern for the further degradation of the potential beauty of the alley
neighborhood and of its attractiveness to me, to clients of my vacation house
Beau Soleil, and to pedestrians and drivers in the alley' between the McIntyres'
and my properties caused by the potential overhead placement of electric,
telephone and cable lines from the Mclntyres' proposed new residence and
accessory buildings to the main utility line in the alley. The lines already
coming from the McIntyres' property and surrounding ones--except from my
property, where all lines have been buried since 1999-are increasingly an ugly
tangle. (See photos.) There has in fact been a gradual increase of electric, cable
and/or telephone services to the residences and buildings on the McIntyres' and
other properties adjacent to the alley and their attachment to the utility lines and
the utility pole located at the south corner of the McIntyre's south-side
neighbor's property. These lines obstruct and negate the view of the beauty of
natural vistas that should be available to guests from the back windows, deck,
and parking space of my cottage Beau Soleil as well as to all of us who frequent
the famous little alleys of Ashland, including ours, which lies between Third
and Fourth Streets
As I write this letter, I have as yet not found an opportunity to speak with either
Ms. Gunter or Ann about the McIntyres' plans for the disposition of their new
and existing utility lines. So I include this concern in my letter of comment to
the City Planners along with, on the one hand, a request to the Planners and the
City Council to consider this matter in its making of policies regarding
residences and lodging houses in the Railroad district. On the other hand, I
would like to formalize my request to the McIntyres to take the worthwhile
trouble and accept the minimal expense of connecting their new tenants, as well
as the existing primary residence on their property on Third Street, to city and
private utilities by the underground route.
And, although we have not yet had an opportunity to discuss it, I am
optimistically hopeful that the Mclntyres will have already seen the value of
burying the utility lines as I am proposing, since Martha McIntyre already owns
at least one other double-lot rental property with several units on it in Ashland
and seems to have an eye for purchasing rental properties downtown and in the
historic Railroad District. I think the move to bury utility lines, which in this
case would be made during the major construction project that the McIntyres
are proposing with regard to the back yard of 140-142 Third Street, should be
found to be reasonably inexpensive to do, as I found it to be when I remodeled
the old building that turned out to be my vacation house, Beau Soleil in 1999.
Apart from the implicit important safety concerns, burying utility lines is also a
simple way of increasing and preserving the value of a property.
3
I will attempt to speak with Ann McIntyre and/or her mother myself about this
before I must submit these comments to the City tomorrow. Whether I can
arrange that conversation or not, I hereby request that they have agree to bury
the cables and wires from the buildings on their property at 140-142 Third
Street, including the existing "primary residence," and thereby open up for their
tenants and mine the beautiful view of the hills and trees around our properties.
I will now address my concerns about the Mclntyres' current plans for parking
in the site review PA-2013-00636 concerning the proposed revisions to property
at 140-142 Third Street.
Parking Concerns
At the time of Ann's visit the other day, she showed me the diagram of the
planned construction at 140-142 Third Street and, though there were no
indications of sizes or dimensions of any of the planned or existing objects
visible by me in the new site plan, she assured me and I trust that their plans
meet City codes. The site diagram I briefly saw that morning showed two
separate parking areas that she and her mother are proposing to make at least
technically available to tenants, primarily but, by necessity, not exclusively for
the proposed new two-bedroom dwelling.
These two areas--area one, the wide area now partially occupied and limited by
the east fence (which I will address first), and area two, the old garage (which I
will address second)-also presumably will not be prohibited to tenants of the
primary residence or even of other guests, should the planned remodeled studio-
with-bath, currently still a studio apartment, be used as an additional or guest
bedroom by any of the tenants of either of the two houses that will be on the
property. (I believe, that there will be a total of five or six bedrooms available
for occupancy on the McIntyre property on Third Street. Five covered and an
unspecified number of additional bicycle-storage spaces are included in the
written plans for the site revision. This all suggests that parking for this property
will at all times be at a premium and that all available spaces may and probably
will be heavily used.
I see two problem areas at 140-142 Third Street that involve parking in these
areas and threats to my property
Area 1> The Problem and Solutions. The principal area designated as an
immediate parking area in the McIntyres' plans has been briefly discussed with
Ms. Gunter and with Ann McIntyre and continues to concern me as a threat to
the physical property and my business of Beau Soleil Vacation (louse and to the
value of my property in general. It is concerns the distance between my property
4
and the end of the McIntyres projected open parking spaces. This parking will
apparently be perpendicular to the line of the alley, though neither the site
diagram or the written plans seem to address this question. The two spaces that
are supposed to be put into this area, I believe it was indicated to me by Ann
McIntyre, will lie parallel to the existing old garage that abuts their property line
on the south side and the neighbor's fence on the north side. (See photos.)
I am also aware of the city requirements and standard allowance of a minimum
of 22 feet for vehicles exiting a parking space, and both Ann and Ms. Gunter
have assured me that the owners' approved plan complies with the required
provision of 22 feet of distance between the rear of the proposed two-car
parking area and an obstacle in the vehicle's exit path. Nonetheless, I request
that the McIntyres' plans for parking in this area be altered if necessary, in order
either to increase the distance between the rear of this parking area and my
property line or to resituate the designated spaces in this area to insure that
parking will be at an oblique angle rather than parallel to the old garage and the
neighbor's fence to ensure the protection of my property. I ask that the proposed
parking spaces that the Mclntyres intend to provide tenants in this area be
designed with front-end barriers that situate parked vehicles at an oblique angle
to the alley, the old garage and the neighbor's fence, decreasing difficulties of
backing out of and driving into these tenant parking spaces and the likelihood of
those vehicles approaching my property directly.
If after reviewing these comments it is the McIntyres' plan to continue to allow
vehicles to park parallel to each other and to the old garage on one side and the
neighbor's fence on the other, I ask that the distance of "driveway" on their own
property be increased to at least 12 feet between their property line and the end
of this proposed parking area. This will more safely accommodate the exiting of
tenants' vehicles from these parking spaces on the property across from my
cottage.
It is important to know that the area of my property affected by this parking area
is at my west property line where, adjacent to the alley, there is a maintained
and landscaped plant bed about three feet deep that abuts the rear of my
vacation house, Beau Soleil. This bed is edged by a low, narrow (5") concrete
rim that marks my west property line paralleling the alley. This bed is an
obstacle that in effect provides no physical protection from the trajectory of a
vehicle exiting the parking area in question and that will necessarily be moving
in the direction or my plant bed and the building itself if the vehicle is parked
parallel to the old garage on the south and the neighbor's fence on the north.
I believe that both the bed and the building on my property are seriously
jeopardized by cars exiting the parking area opposite them. Tenants' vehicles, in
5
the best of circumstances may need to come into or dangerously close to that
planting area and, depending on the size and design of the car, to Beau Soleil
itself. Any error in judgment by a driver exiting this parking area from a
position parallel to the old garage and the neighbor's fence spaces poses a
serious threat to my property, the well-being and security of my guests, and my
property value.
Area 1. Reasons for Concern. This situation has been taken up as a serious
issue by me in part because of my own thirteen years of experience of driving
into and of backing out of my carport into the alley in order to get to B and C
Streets. Those 13-years of experience entering and exiting my carport have
involved my own compact cars.
My carport was a new parking space built in 1999 at the time of the remodel of
the building and business now called Beau Soleil. It sits directly opposite the
Third Street building (the old garage) that is located on the McIntyre property's
east boundary. The carport was constructed far enough into my back yard to
allow for more than 24' of back-up space from the end of that parking place to
the old garage that sits right on the boundary of the Mclntyres' Third Street
property. What my experience has shown me is that-even with the existing 27
or so feet of back-up space from my carport to the old garage-getting even my
small cars to clear my carport (and any guest's vehicle that may be parked
parallel to it) and into the correct angle in the alley to turn the car into driving j
position, requires both great care and almost all of that more than 24-foot
distance. This distance includes 12 feet of "driveway" on my property as well as
the apparent 12 feet across the width of the alley, and whatever remaining j
distance is in the city's usually invisible berms between the respective
properties and the edges of the alley. (These berms are concealed by the alley's
distortion, beginning at the neck of the T, by overhanging trees that push the
alley traffic and consequently the path of the alley away from the alley's real
west edge and toward an artificial east edge that reduces the width of the berm
on my side of the alley. See photos.)
I
In fact it has been necessary, when backing even my compact cars from my
carport, for the driver to allow a corner of the rear of the vehicle (and the wheel
that sits right under that corner) to come very close to (say, within a foot or two
of) the old garage. This is due to the delayed angling of my car caused, I
believe, by the principal carport posts. A guest's vehicle parked parallel to my
carport could cause the same effect.
I believe that the same difficulties I have just described would also apply in the
case of parallel parking that might be located perpendicular to the alley behind
the McIntyres' Third Street property. That is to say, more than 24' and not 22'
6
would also seem to be the minimum distance needed to completely negotiate
even a compact vehicle's backing up toward my house and into the alley from
the proposed new parking area. I believe this because the proximity of existing
structures such as the old garage and the neighbor's fence, as well as of other
vehicles parked parallel to them will compromise the angle of a vehicle's turn
out of the proposed parking area.
I compare these conditions to those affecting my own backing from my carport
in order to drive down the alley. The side of my carport, for example, presents a
certain impediment to my backing up and turning into the alley that prevents its
easy execution using the even more than of 24 feet available for maneuvering
my compact. This is similar to the impediment to backing out that I believe will
be posed to the new parking spaces on the McIntyres' property if more than one
vehicle is parked parallel to the North wall of the old garage on the south side of
the proposed parking, and by the existing north fence that runs parallel to these
parking spaces or to one car by another car parked in these two spaces and
parallel to those two limiting structures.
In addition, judging from the parking spaces and habits of tenants at the
neighboring apartment complex on B-Street, who park along the Fourth Street
"arm" of our T-alley, I think it is important that you know that the McIntyres'
proposed parking area directly across the alley from my cottage in point of fact
seems to be wide enough and will probably in the end be used for three rather
than two parked cars or vehicles if they are permitted to park parallel to the old
garage and the neighbor's fence on the north. It is also important to consider
that in that same leg of our T-shaped alley, vehicles exiting the B-Street
apartments' parking area (which is about the same width as the area proposed
for outdoor parking by the Mclntyres' plan) accommodates more than two
vehicles and they have several times collided with and caused repairs to be
made to my north neighbor's fence.
These conditions and the potential threat to my property that they pose will
clearly be exacerbated when the vehicles involved are not compact cars, but
vans, trucks or SUVs.
Therefore, I believe that McIntyres complying with the current legal
requirement of 22' is insufficient protection of my property in this specific
instance because of existing and projected limiting "walls" of buildings and
other structures and of the McIntyres' tenants' parked vehicles. I sincerely
believe that the required 22' in this case will not be sufficient to protect my
property and that adherence to the letter of the rule in this case would leave me
very vulnerable to likely damages to my property, including to the cottage itself.
7
And I therefore ask in this instance that the McIntyres agree and make any
adjustments to their plans that would be necessary in order to resituate these two
spaces back further into their yard to leave more than 24' between my property
and the foot of the open parking spaces on the alley behind their Third Street
property; or to eliminate the direct trajectory of tenants' vehicles toward my
property Beau Soleil and its plant bed.
Area 0 The Problem. During Ann's visit to me at my house last week, she also
indicated that she believed she and her mother were required by the city to
provide a third parking space to meet the requirements for approval of the two-
bedroom residence at 140-142 Third Street, though she believed they had the
option to never actually malce the third space available to tenants on the
property. In their original proposal, that is to say in the submitted written
documents, the McIntyres identified the location of that third space as inside the
old garage. This designation of parking for a car or other motorized vehicle does
not appear on the official site diagram that Ann showed me. But it is present as
such in that part of the McIntyres' written plans I was provided in an email from
the City last week.
I must object to approval of the stated plan for a (potential or actual) parking
space for vehicles such as a car, truck, or van in the old garage now or anytime
in the future. The McIntyres have designated the old garage as a vehicle parking
space. That building is, of course, already a non-conforming building and could
in no way meet even the 22-feet of driving distance required for vehicles exiting
it.
I therefore request that the old garage be prohibited as the site of a parking
space.
Conclusion
I have spoken twice with Ms. Gunter about my concerns relevant to the
McIntyres' currently stated plans for accommodation of parking and once
mentioned my concerns for increasing proliferation of overhead utilities wires
and cables that accompany the arrival of more tenants at 140-142 Third Street.
I should also say that my previous conversations with both Ms. Gunter and Ann
McIntyre occurred before I measured my own parking and use areas adjacent to
the alley. Subsequent to those conversation, these measurements have
reinforced my anxiety about the proposed plan for parking on the McIntyres'
property.
i
8
In my first talk with Ms Gunter, I also mentioned my concern about the esthetic
degradation of the alley already caused by existing overhead utility lines and
that would be magnified by new overhead lines from the McIntyres' Third
Street property However, Ms. Gunter and I did not discuss this further because
time has been limited and parking issues seemed to be more crucial for our
mutual understanding and dominated the two conversations we were able to
have.
The McIntyres have also already been made aware of my two concern about
their parking plan, Ann having dropped by and surprised me with a quick visit
to my home one day and taken the brief minutes she had available at the time to
hear my concerns about their planned parking.
Now that I feel able to articulate for myself all my concerns about new parking
and utility lines that have been suggested by the Mclntyres' submitted request
for a site revision, I will attempt to address my concerns by phone or in person
to Ann and/or Martha McIntyre and to Ms. Gunter before I must submit these
comments tomorrow, Tuesday 9 July 2013. 1 will also email a copy of this letter
and photographs to Ms. Gunter to submit for consideration to the Planning
Commission.
I hope that it will be clear in my comments that my first priority as a property
owner and small business owner must be to protect my property and the value
of it.
But another very high priority for me is to contribute to the creation and
maintenance of a healthy and safe environment and a friendly atmosphere in our
part of the Railroad District. I have cheerfully changed or rearranged decisions
about the construction that has taken place on my property through the 33 years
I have lived at 143 Fourth Street. Often these changes and accommodations of
others' needs have cost more money than I originally planned or even
necessitated an increase in the amount I would have to borrow. Or they have
created some other significant loss to my own interests. But in consideration of
my neighbors and passers-by, I decided to make many changes because they
seemed the right thing to do in consideration of others.
For example, in 1999, I remodeled the funky old two-story pink house built in
1948 that is now my guest house Beau Soleil, a transient lodging
accommodation that now sits in a reduced area of the original structure's
footprint. As a safety precaution, given the tight proximity of property lines and
traffic on our alley, I voluntarily moved the original rear (West) wall three feet
back from the property line at the edge of the alley and put in a plant bed
extending to my property line to mark the alley edge. The true lines of the alley
9
had become extremely distorted through the many decades of traffic following
the path of least resistance around encroachments of grassy areas and
untrimmed tree limbs at other properties along the alley. At that same time, as a
courtesy to my then north-side neighbor's written concern to the planning
commission that my planned remodel of the old pink house would block their
solar access. Therefore, aware of the tight proximity of all buildings and
property lines surrounding and affecting my property, I agreed to move the
North wall of my remodeled building three feet back from its original position
on the property line adjacent to the fence on the north side of my property. In
short, by both these reductions of the actual footprint I would build within, I
gave up a good deal of grandfathered living space in the remodel, which I
would have loved to have, but it seemed the fair thing to do. In addition, when I
built a side deck on the south side of my house, although my south-side
neighbor's main roofline extends a number of inches (about 6" I believe) onto
my property, I voluntarily agreed to keep my new structure and plantings well
(two feet or a little more, I believe) within the perimeter of my property
boundary to allow walking space for my neighbors beside their house along that
side.
Finally, after expressing the concerns addressed in this letter, I want to thank
you for your thorough and fair consideration of them. Thank you.
Cordially yours,
Priscilla Hunter
