SUBJECT: Hearing On Rezoning Application 2824-RZ and Subdivision
7232; And Appeal By Garry Mello Et Al On Rezoning
Application 2824-RZ And Subdivsion 7232 In The Oakley
Area.
This is the time heretofore noticed by the Clerk of the Board of
Supervisors for hearing on the recommendation of the East County
Regional Planning Commission on the request ( 2824-RZ) by Bellecci and
Associates (applicants) and Richard Cagle and Anita Adams (owners) to
rezone land from General Agricultural (A-2) to Single Family
Residential (R-12) ; and to consider the appeal by Gary Mello, et al
from the decision of the East County Regional Planning Commission on
the request to rezone land ( 2824-RZ) by Bellecci and Associates and
Richard Cagle and Anita Adams and the request for approval to
subdivide 5. 0 acres into ten lots (Subdivision 7232) in the Oakley
area.
Byron Turner, Community Development Department, presented the
staff report on the matters before the Board today, describing the
proposed project location, and the revised map that had been presented
today.
Supervisor Torlakson commented on the meetings over the past
several years on this project, and he requested whether various items
had been incorporated into the conditions and if they had been agreed
to including a landscaping easement, a minimum five foot fence set
back with the landscaping to be outside of the project, landscaping
area to be designated for landscaping only, landscaping and irrigation
to be installed by professional landscapers at the expense of the
developers, landscaping to be large growing evergreen trees planted
close enough to provide screening and buffering in a two year period,
and the masonary fence. He requested clarification on whether the
issue of the parcels adjacent to Mello and Tate being limited to
single story was a part of the consensus as requested in a letter from
Mr. Mello. He commented on issues in Mr. Mello' s letter dated March
11, 1990, including land elevation changes.
Mr. Turner commented that those matters did not appear to have
been incorporated into the conditions before the Board today for
consideration.
Supervisor Torlakson indicated that there would have to be
direction added to incorporate those if they were not in there now.
The public hearing was opened and the following persons appeared
to speak:
Frank Bellecci, Bellecci and Associates, 2552 Stanwell Drive,
Concord, representing the owners, commented on the revised map,
including the five foot landscaping easement, the drainage line, the
reconfiguration of the lots to be more regular in shape, and the land
elevation changes.
Gary Mello, Rt. 1 Box 224-C, Gum Tree Lane, Oakley, appellant,
commented on issues including the density, lot sizes, buffering, the
masonary fence, the landscaping, single story homes, and land
elevation changes.
Mr. Bellecci spoke in rebuttal.
The public hearing was closed.
Supervisor Torlakson expressed intent to approve the project with
the compromise outlined in Mr. Mello' s letter including the extension
of the wall to Tate Lane so that there is a completion of the wall,
the masonary fence type structure, and that the final type of
structure should be reviewed with the developer' s and the existing
neighbors ' input before the Zoning Administrator makes a final
decision on the matter, and that on the land elevations indicate that
the Zoning Administrator and the applicant should make every effort in
reviewing the engineering to avoid major elevation changes, and that
the final approval of that review would be done by the Zoning
Administrator, and the road alignment be fully reflected in the
conditions and the final map. He expressed intent on that and moved
approval that these things be incorporated in the final language and
conditions and requested that the matter be placed on the March 27 ,
1990 Determination calendar for final approval.
IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that the Board DECLARES ITS INTENT to
approve Rezoning application 2824-RZ and Subdivision 7232 with amended
conditions; and staff is DIRECTED to prepare the appropriate
documentation for Board consideration on the March 27 , 1990
Determination Calendar.
Supervisor Torlakson requested also that staff provide in
advance copies of the final documentation to those who spoke.
