Proposal:
We are proposing to demolish the existing 2172 sf non-historic home and its 580 sf detached garage,
and build 3 detached 2 story condominiums. The land will be commonly owned between the 3 units
and the airspace will be separately owned. Private use easements in the CC&R’s will outline which
portions of the land can be privately used by each unit. The diagrams and table on the following page
highlight these uses and summarizes these areas.
Each unit will have 4 bedrooms and 3 baths with 1 bedroom and bath on the ground floor. Unit 1 will be
1823 sf with an attached 1 car garage and 1713 sf of private open space. Unit 2 will be 1785 sf with an
attached 1 car garage and 719 sf of private open space. Unit 3 will be 1799 sf with an attached 1 car
garage and 504 sf of private open space.
The property’s corner location will allow all 3 units to have separate street accesses, individual street
frontages, and separate driveways. They will all have covered front porch entries facing the street with
brick surfaces. They will share the same craftsman bungalow architectural style with shingle siding and
roofing, gridded windows, brick fireplaces, and walkways. Each body color will be painted differently.
We will be dedicating 5 ft. of Fisher Ave., and 7 ft. of Roberts Rd. to the City and we will be installing new
sidewalks, curbs, gutters, crosswalks, and bike paths along these frontages improving public pedestrian
access and circulation.
