(Quasi-Judicial)

 

  Presenter: 

William Gray, Senior Planner, Planning + Neighborhood Services Department

 

Recommended action

  Proposed Motion:

Approve a Report of Acceptability for the 1320 N Nevada Solar Addition project based upon the findings that the project meets the review criteria for a report of acceptability, as set forth in City Code Section 7.5.528.C.2.b.3 with conditions:

 

a.                     Revise the plan, so the solar panels have a minimum three (3) feet setback from the front eave of the main house to preserve the distinctive gable roof feature.  If this can’t be achieved, then relocate all or some of the modules to the garage roof or reduce the number of panels on the main house.

b.                     Final Plan must clearly indicate that all exterior conduit and electrical equipment has a matte finish or color match to the main house and detached garage to minimize visibility.
