For meeting of 6/28/77
Public hearing - Consideration of tentative subdivision map for Chulas Casitas
ITEM TITLE No. 1
Resolution 8690- Approving tentative subdivision map for Chulas Casitas No. 1
SUBMITTED BY Director of Planning _
ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES NO X )
A. BACKGROUND
1. The applicant has submitted a tentative subdivision map in order to divide 1.21
acres of property located near the southeast quadrant of First Avenue and "H" Street into
5 lots in the R-1 zone.
2. The Negative Declaration on IS-77-16 for this project was certified by the Plan-
ning Commission June 8, 1977 and is herewith forwarded to the City Council.
B. DISCUSSION
1. Site Characteristics.
The subject property measures 170' x 310' (1.21 acres) and is located 120 feet south
of "H" Street on the easterly side of First Avenue. The site is relatively level and a
natural drainage channel traverses the northerly portion of the property. The property
is presently developed with a single family dwelling located near the southwest corner of
the site. The surrounding properties are zoned R-1 and developed with single family
dwellings.
2. Tentative Map.
a. Proposed Street.
The five lot subdivision will be served by a 40 ft. wide cul-de-sac street on
the south side of the property with access from First Avenue. The standard right of way
width for local streets is 52 feet which provides for two 10 foot travel lanes, an 8
foot parking lane and sidewalks on each side of the street. The proposed street will

provide two travel lanes with parking and a sidewalk constructed on the north side of
the street only. The diameter of the cul-de-sac is also substandard with curb to curb
diameter of 56 feet (with no parking) instead of the standard 80 feet (with parking).
Due to the relatively short length of the street (310 feet) and the fact that it serves
only five lots, the reduced cul-de-sac is considered acceptable.
b. Drainage.
The natural drainage area located on the north end of the property will be im-
proved with grass lined slopes and a 6 foot wide paved invert in the bottom of the chan-
nel. The drainage will be placed underground along the northerly 55 feet of the easter-
ly property line of lot 5.
c. Proposed Lots.
The average lot size is 7,960 sq. ft. and each lot fronts on the proposed street.
Lot 1 has 70 feet of street frontage and contains a gross area of 9,116 sq. ft. with a
usable area of approximately 7,400 sq. ft., excluding the 25 ft. drainage easement at
the rear of the lot. Lots 2, 3 and 4, each have 60 feet of frontage, a gross area of
7,815 sq. ft., and a usable lot area of approximately 6300 sq. ft. Lot 5 has 602 feet
of frontage, a gross area of 7,000 sq. ft. and a usable lot area of approximately 5500
sq. ft.
C. ANALYSIS
1. Since the proposed street will be single loaded to serve only homes on the north
side, the street section providing for two travel lanes and parking on one side is ade-
quate. The smaller cul-de-sac radius will provide sufficient turn around area with the
prohibition against parking. A minimum of 8 onstreet parking spaces will be available
on Street "A" (Casitas Court).
2. There are four other properties to the east which could be served by the exten-
sion of the proposed street. The developer has contacted the owners of these properties
and has indicated that the owners are not interested in developing the rear portions of
their lots at this time. The Planning Commission previously approved two variances, for
other properties further to the east in this same block, creating lots which gain their
access to "H" Street by means of a private easement rather than having frontage on a
dedicated street. Development of these four properties in the future should be contin-
gent upon the extension of the proposed street rather than by an easement from "H" Street.
