guest house above the garage that is currently under construction at 589 Oak Street into an
Accessory Residential Unit. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Single Family
Residential; ZONING: R-1-5; ASSESSOR'S MAP: 39 lE 04 CD TAX LOT: 805;
SUBMITTAL DATE: April 1, 2015
DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: May 22, 2015
STAFF APPROVAL DATE: June 12, 2015
FINAL DECISION DATE: June 24, 2015
APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: December 24, 2016
DECISION
The application involves a request for Site Review approval to convert an portion of a new
residence that is under construction into an Accessory Residential Unit above the garage at 589
Oak Street.
The subject parcel is located on the west side of Oak Street just southwest of the intersection of
Oak Street and Crispin. The property is rectangular, with an area of approximately 8,700 square
feet. The parcel and surrounding properties are zoned R-1-5, Single-Family Residential. Oak
Street is identified as an Avenue and is improved with paving, curb and gutters. Sidewalk exists
across the street from the subject property. Midway through the subject site a crosswalk directs
pedestrians across Oak Street.
The property is currently under construction with a 1,813 square foot single family residence, an
attached garage and the 610 square foot Accessory Residential Unit (ARU). According to the
application materials, there will not be more than two dwelling units on this property per AMC
18.2.3.040.A.1.
In the Unified Land Use Ordinance, Chapter 18 of the AMC, sizes of ARUs are limited to 50
percent of the Gross Habitable Floor Area (GHFA) of the primary residence, and, no greater than
1,000 square feet. In this case, the proposed ARU is 610 square feet. Based on this information,
the proposed ARU complies with the size limitation to be considered an ARU.
The applicants have proposed to utilize the garage, a surface parking space adjacent to the garage
and an on-street parking credit to meet the necessary four (4) required parking spaces to serve the
existing home and ARU.
Site Review Approval Criteria
Where accessory residential units are allowed, they are subject to Site Design Review under
chapter 18.5.2. Accordingly, applicants are required to demonstrate compliance with the criteria
PA #2015-00605
589 Oak Street/adg
Page 1
for Site Review approval. The following text addresses the applicants' proposal and the
applicable criteria.
According to the application, the proposed unit conforms to the underlying zone's density and
floor area requirements, maximum building height, lot coverage, area and dimensions, setbacks,
building orientation, and architecture. The application notes the subject unit is above the garage
of the primary residence that is under construction.
The application notes the existing two car garage, the surface space adjacent and the
approximately twenty-two feet of street frontage that is not yellowed for the clearance from the
crosswalk which allows for one on-street parking credit, will provide adequate parking for the
existing home and ARU. The driveway curbcut will need to be reduced in width in order to
provide the required 22 feet of clearance for an on-street parking credit. A condition to this effect
has been added.
Currently the lot has approximately 35 percent of the site covered with impervious surfaces,
including the new residence, garage, accessory residential unit and hardscape.
The application materials explain the proposed ARU will be connected to the services for the
existing structure, though a separate electrical meter will be installed for the new unit in
conjunction with a new address. The applicants have indicated that no additional improvements
to accommodate the proposed unit. Oak Street is paved, with curbs, gutters. There is no
sidewalk along the property's frontage due to the slope behind the curb, the sidewalk ends about
midway through the lot and a cross walk directs pedestrians across Oak Street.
CONCLUSION
No public comments were received with regard to the proposal. Therefore, with the added
conditions below, staff finds that the proposed unit would be in conformance with the standards
of the R-1-5 zone, the minimum requirements of the Accessory Residential Unit and Site Design

exceed 50 percent of the GHFA of the primary residence on the lot, and shall not exceed
1,000 square feet GHFA.

for single-family dwellings in section 18.4.3.040, except that parking spaces, turn-grounds,
